When he lets his inner Ben Linus out, I get chills.

I hope they don't break them up at the end of the season. There is still humor to be mined there, especially if they were to actually get engaged!

I just assumed he uses a laundry service.

I noted this as well. Carlos pressed his own torillas when he used them! Although perhaps Cheers didn't have a tortilla press?

I too live in Michigan, and hummus is not a bar staple in Grand Rapids. I don't know how you guys do it over on the east side …

**spoilers**

I don't understand why one of the clam pounder team mates didn't whisper, "Dude, grab a towel and open them like you would an oyster!" I mean, better to win, right?

Ilan was a dick, but I still laugh when I remember him telling Marcel to go keep making his foams and cry in a corner.

Yes- for me it's everything above that comment. It still is a placeholder though for breaking up the discussion of different episodes.

Shh, shh, shhhhhhh. Don't poke at the plot holes! Then the whole thing unravels.

I'm so glad this show came out of the gate with two strong episodes. Over the course of this season, this show has gone from one I considered dropping to one of the first ones I watch on my DVR.

Including acting.

I also really thought that the mercenaries were going to be important because of the staging. Alas.

I completely agree. It gave the story more room to breathe. Sometimes all of the jumping around gets a little frenetic.

The nanites are being set up as a sort of "big bad" now, it seems - and I like this direction. The writers have done an interesting job course correcting and making what was the silliest part of this show something that is menacing and interesting. I suspect we haven't seen the last of Peter either.

Maybe if next week ends up being especially interesting, you'll surprise us with a review! Or at least a place to discuss it.

I want her to do well very badly. She skates with a perfect combination of grace and athleticism.
