    Evidence that will eventually show up in Tyrion's trial, I'm guessing.

    I wonder if he released that chapter specifically because he knew this episode was coming out.

    Well, your previous comment implies that you don't understand why a 13-year-old girl would be more likely to fawn over a boy than a 9-year-old girl, so I'd suggest there is a great deal of information concerning 13-year-old girls about which you are unaware.

    Two single parents have a blind date that goes so badly, it convinces each of them to stop trying to date and focus on their kids for a while. They then take their kids on identical African vacations and run into each other and discover that they like each other after all.

    I agree that there's certainly a place in comics for stories that have permanent death, and have a beginning, middle, and end. I used to think the same as you, that comics' decision to basically stay in the middle the whole time weakened their ability to tell meaningful stories.

    Oh, duh, I totally forgot about the Tesseract. Just as well- people would scream "deus ex machina" if it was used the way Brubaker used it anyway (it was kind of like that in the comics, but he added an emotional element to the scene that made the whole thing work wonderfully).

    I liked that when he fought Batroc the Leaper, Cap waited for him to get up before tackling him and taking him out for good.

    To be fair, that's probably the most statistically significant factor.

    Without the cosmic cube (which can't exist since Marvel can't do Fantastic Four movies), any resolution to the Winter Soldier storyline is going to be cheesy enough that you'll want to minimize that storyline (which they did here).

    I'm ashamed to say I didn't catch that. Thank you for pointing it out.

    Dammit, I thought for a second that Sandler had hired one of the Breaking Bad directors for his movie, and was actually slightly intrigued.

    Actually, forget the sitcom!

    I was more freaking out that songs I listened to in high school and thought of as fairly current are now "classic rock."

    Songs that qualified as classic rock:

    Bite your tongue. Working for free is a false concept invented by the lazy to trick the gullible. A person who takes pride in his work knows his work is valuable, and expects others to recognize this.

    Again, Ron Swanson. It would have been a great chance to relax for a few years after working the quarry.

    This show might not be as white-hot brilliant as it used to be, but damn does Amy Poehler sell her lines. I caught myself laughing at her delivery without even registering what she was saying a few times. And of course, "PIKITIS!" It makes me wonder how much of Leslie Knope's ability to get things done by sheer force

    When Ron recognized Allison, I briefly wondered if she could possibly be the girl on the field trip that Ron gave the land mine to, then I realized that she was too old. Then I thought it over, and realized that if that episode had happened in one of the first two seasons, it wouldn't be outside the realm of

    Annie won't get into "half plus seven" range for another 5 seasons, which I think is the detail that caused Dan Harmon to approve this episode. Either people have to give up Jeff/Annie, or they insist on it so hard that it gives him a job for 5 more years.

    I'm turning 28 in a few months, so I feel days away from death (assuming the Alzheimer's doesn't get me first).
