except Peggy!  and Jane, because Roger got there first…

thank you, I thought it was intentional but since attention was never called to it maybe it was just coincidence.  but that guy could play a young John Slattery if ever that is needed in a future project.

I really agree.  I kept thinking all through last night that it just felt like itself.

I think that was Deana Carter

My guy and I spent a lot of last night's episode going "WHERE IS BRENDA?!"  why is she not part of ANY of these strategy discussions?  It was unbelievable.  Especially because she was such a little schemer in her first season.

Absolutely.

Same here, on the cut-off and people acting out of character.

too true!

I'm with Genevieve on how a lot of these characters acted implausibly to make this episode come together, which took me out of the story a few times.  Most notably Gaad just talking about secret, unauthorized missions to kill a diplomat in the middle of a party (and the idea that killing a diplomat would ever be a…

And when Jimmy's real last name is revealed, will we be asked to care about his "betrayal" to Karen?  No thank you.

Because he is verbally (and could be physically) abusive.  What a love interest!

@avclub-d0cf409eb912cc0cc950b41b6d892d07:disqus like others in this thread have said, seems to me she's the one who told the cops where Delroy's body was; Ellen May never talked.  She probably wanted to be there as a big f-u to Boyd.

I could be wrong, but Cassie being there for Ava's arrest said to me that Ellen May actually never talked; Raylan was bluffing to get Boyd to come with him.  It was Cassie who told the Harlan County sheriffs where Delroy's body was.  Cassie hadn't necessarily teamed up with Paxton, just her and Paxton both teamed up…

@avclub-29639d6c421c85be2b1d77158fc0b4a3:disqus i love it.

I love that this was the first comment.  It's actually a significant improvement for this show that the only time I laughed out loud last night was this line.  They thought they were being so clever, didn't they?

If that means we get her death scene and thus some Gus Fring-level acting out of Giancarlo, then I'm ok with it.

I beg to differ.

thank you so much for this.  it made perfect sense (S'MORES S'MORES!)

"I can’t believe I was kissing Luke Cafferty this whole time, and I didn’t even know it!” 
This makes me so happy.

unfortunately I'm not sure that's true.  I had a road trip for work last week, so I listened to some of the OUaT podcasts with Horowitz and Kitsis to pass the time, and the host asked them why Emma didn't realize that Owen/Greg was lying in the hospital when she questioned him, and they said go back and listen to the…
