except they seem to be telling the same story. Hers is that he was intrusive and she said she didn't want a photo taken. His is that he did what everyone else does when they see one of their celebrities, which is take a selfie. He doesn't say she was ok with the photo and is now changing her story. I guess his version

exactly. there are rules, damnit. only I'm not sure exactly what they are. my nerdentials are at stake.

do they know that, though? I thought the coming Winter was infecting all the dead, ala walking dead. I didn't know that a nearby action by one of the Others was necessary. I know we saw the Winter King do a mass raising of bodies, but I figured that just kind of sped it up on a mass scale.

Ah. so you think it's a production practicality that puts the camp in the woods in a valley and totally vulnerable to attack. It makes a much sense as anything else I guess. practical for real world and narrative/dramatic reasons if not historical reasons.

not much really. I was an angry white boy who listened to metallica. I didn't get that he was anything other than a pop star until my late 30's, and while I now know how good he was, it hasn't translated into fandom, really. I did really like Kevin Smith's story of doing some filming for Prince that went straight to a

well, I see above in my original post that I said I liked the fight, but didn't like the single barge focus and end to it, so maybe I'm not consistent. Maybe it's because the Vikings have been losing and I'm subconsciously hating it for that reason…I don't know. I think they do big fights ok, but like the fight

Oh, I get the morale factor in losing your leader, or seeing him go down. That era of warfare could be highly dependant upon morale, banners and standards, etc. My main complaint is that we saw several barges, and then there was one. These barges were higher than the Franks' ships, so while I appreciated the ramming

I caught the episode from I don't know when, where Stuart got his date with Penny, but missed out on her coffee due to a comic-book argument at the end of the night with Sheldon. He was an artist, a store owner, he had pieces in a gallery. And now he's this…. Talk about an undermining arc.

What an interesting narrative choice, to jump years ahead mid-episode. While I enjoyed the battle sequence, I too, had major trouble seeing its outcome when the Vikings had multiple barge/fight platforms, and the Franks only managed to take one. that should not have ended the fight, or the battle….but it did. oh well.

sure he did, just as he prevented Jimmy from joining HHM, by using Howard as proxy

well, we haven't the full arc of the prequel. I'm not ruling it out.

We saw one instance of Jimmy stealing as a child. It was explicitly stated by Jimmy that every con man and swindler in town knew to come to the store for the handouts.
Chuck claims Jimmy stole thousands of dollars, but Chuck doesn't know about the dad's generosity or the other hands in the til.
Do I think Jimmy

There is a shit-ton of evidence that Jimmy thinks of others. All his time, consideration, and care of Chuck, for one.

Chuck and Howard didn't con Mesa Verde. A con is a misrepresentation of the truth or an outright lie. Jimmy and Kim misrepresented themselves as investors and heirs to big money to play on the greed of their mark.

Kim, as an up and comer in the firm from the mail room, may or may not have had a noncompetition clause or client retention clause. Since HHM paid for her schooling, repayment of that debt was probably the biggest thing holding her in place. Non-compete clauses are difficult to enforce even when freely entered into,

Chuck certainly despises Jimmy, even if it's inconsistent or incoherent. That's the point of the opening. To Chuck's mind, Chuck is the good son, the lawyer, the upstanding citizen. Jimmy is the scam artist and conman who stole from dad and left mom's beside, and who does mom call out for? Jimmy. To Chuck it's the

you could just be watching netflix or amazon originals on a tablet, taking the whole tv aspect out of the picture, no pun intended.

Or, he's a bit creepy and she's awful purty….so she didn't get tested and is unalive and kicking somewhere to be brought back at a later date.

shot in the chest and not present in the basement when Blaine and Ravi armed themselves = not dead squared and will be back at some point I'm sure.

does he team up with the mattress tag enforcer? that guy's a loose cannon if I've ever seen one.
