my biggest problem with this is that it seems like the wrong event convinced Saul of the presence of a mole. it's not necessary for Nazir to have someone inside the CIA to know the meeting was a set-up. why else would the Saudi ambassador call a meeting that Nazir didn't ask for?

take it to the newswire, pal.

almost positive McGarrigle mentions de Valera negotiating peace with the British early in this episode, so I doubt he's some kind of stand-in or composite. also, not to argue but de Valera was black Irish, didn't really bear much resemblance to this two-faced ingrate Farmer Hogget-looking motherfucker McGarrigle. for…

God bless you and your exacting standards.

I should make it clear that I'm saying they're not terrorists at all, but rather deep undercover intelligence agents. we never saw conclusive evidence that the money for the house came from the Prince's majordomo, we've never seen them wash or worship, and we know nothing about their contacts or who's actually after…

someone may have already floated this theory, but I can't get over this feeling that Faisel and Aileen are US or Israeli assets, some kind of double agent routine. the only thing that wouldn't jibe is all the talk about getting the luxury tour of Guantanamo, but that could be chalked up to the deniability of their…

this record is outstanding. we stole one off of 1976, and that shit don't happen everyday.

Harrow could prolly give Gus Fring some very useful recommendations.

weird.

he obviously loves her a lot, but, unlike in the show, he prolly loves her enough to let her have her own life.

it's not even that it's hating, it's just a persistent comparison between two things that couldn't have less to do with each other. what KRIT does has no bearing on whether a person can get on board with some based shit or not, and vice versa, but a lot of people, not saying you specifically, talk about KRIT like he's…

one stone-cold guaranteed lock is that in any conversation even tangentially referencing Lil B, someone is gonna look down their nose and bring up Big KRIT. it's like telling someone that if they had a bad experience with bungee jumping they should try it while reading Ralph Ellison.

goddamn, Duke Silver's light show looks doooooooope.

"Embers is not the forum for legalities, Larry, you're so right."

Rabin is gender-sensitive enough to realize that the very existence of pronouns is a chauvinist weapon of control and dismissal.

constantly amazed by the crew on top gear. best in the biz by a long shot.

they show the full episode first run, and edit a segment (usually the news, sometimes the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car if it's someone with zero profile in the States) for reruns. we used to only get the hour-long edit until people wised up to the madness that is the gear.

this whole registration scheme is gonna work out juuuuuuuuust fine.
