We all knew it was a bad idea for Julia to go to Ed's house that day. Bad Julia, bad. And the way they filmed it, she was kissing back.

I call a tie between Jasmine and Zeek for "Braverman of the Week." Zeek was so loving with Ryan and Amber, not to mention he's got his own sore heart to contend with, missing Camille. Nice work.

You're so loyal.

Agreed, and I loved the toned-down scene toward the end, of Amber and Zeek sitting together, looking sad. No histrionics, just sitting together being sad. Very nice.

The whole line-up of bobbing heads cracked me up.

F. Murray Abraham is very good in a short scene in Inside Llewyn Davis. Chicago, early '60's. It's true, he's everywhere now.

I'm making an appointment to get my hearing checked.

Flipside of strong-jawed stoicism: abject self-pity. Flipside of zeal: belief in nothing. Reese is still on the flipside, but at least he came to save his friends. And we might expect him to show up again, but unlikely he'll be a staple as before. I hear Caviezel wants lighter duty.
