Garrity's speech
Stephen Pasquale absolutely crushed it in his speech about busting out the other firefighter. During this season, the squabbles with the other house have been at the forefront, but that speech brimmed with indignation that the guys weren't respecting the brotherhood. I always like it when the show can…
Fistful of Dynamite.
There's no good reason left to bottle beer? You ever try to level a skinhead in a barfight with a Coors tallboy?
All they have left are top hats
I hope somewhere there's a collection of plutocrats sitting around a fire staring disdainfully at their snifters at the way this has all turned.
He didn't get too far if he was leaving the Hilton and only made it close to the Strip on DI.
Not for nothing, Staircar, but it's probably because of the hooves.
Except, you know. Tumbling Dice.
So on board with the lemonade stand scene. I like it even better than the mirror scene. A total master course in comedic timing.
The Hustler
Both the Fast Eddie/Fats scenes. Jesus. I love the way they mirror each other. Fast Eddie comes in with a massive chip on his shoulder, and by the time both games are over, he's broken. But that second encounter, when the camera swoops around Eddie and he lets "We really stuck the knife in her, didn't we…
Two things that bothered me more than they should
Where the hell did Jack get an Alcatraz-style prison cup from? Has anyone drank from a tin cup in six years?
Did anyone else get nervous that when Sawyer was rolling up on the mystery redhead that she was going to turn around and be Kathy Griffin?
Pearl and the new Joint at the Hard Rock are both great venues, but everything's ridiculously expensive. $50 for Them Crooked Vultures at The Joint and Conan is $75 for the cheap seats at The Pearl, going up to $150.
Home
I think they're going to wiggle out of Sawyer being the one to free Evilocke. He was asked if he wanted to go home and said yes — but they made too big a deal earlier in the episode about his Dharmaville bungalow being home. Sawyer's too anti-authoritarian to get led around this late in the game. Opt-out James…
Two Kajagoogoo tracks and a solo Limahl number?
Aaron
The stuffed whale was a lot more of the black-and-white stuff that's surrounded Aaron — and plays in with all the Jacob/Smokey iconography. Dead (evil?) Claire was insistent that Kate not bring Aaron back to the island. Now it looks like Jacob didn't possess Sayid. And even in alterna-04, Ethan was sent out to…
