OH, and I have to say… DeMarco's hairdo in Red's flashback was one of the funniest visuals of the season for me!

In my family, funerals ALWAYS turn into singing & dancing, so a funeral turning into a wedding doesn't seem offensive.

It was very much something someone in MY family (possibly me) would do.

As real a friendship as two meth-heads can have!

I don't think we've seen anything between them that could legitimately called "love"…. They are two horned up, lonely young people projecting on each other's blankness.

Irresponsible & dangerous as well!

It reminded me of the quote, "THAT WHICH DOES NOT END PEACEFULLY, DOES NOT END AT ALL"…
That's why you never CONFRONT or REACT to your stalker; they see it as a signal that you want the "relationship" to continue.
At least in real life; it looks like Morello has finally woken up and realized that Christopher and HER…

Maybe in the way Mulgrew played it, I got the sense that Red KNEW it was a lie but WANTED to believe it enough to convince herself.

I really liked it!!
I smiled… and I needed a smile.
I also appreciate that Neri, his wife, has her own personality!

I appreciated the Piper/Alex flashbacks because we got to see that Piper wasn't quite the Little Red Riding Hood to Alex's Big Bad Wolf that she'd like to believe she was.
She was ACTIVELY and AGGRESSIVELY pursuing Alex, even AFTER she knew about the girlfriend.

I didn't find Cal's Wedding "mortifying" at all; it made me smile and it was totally in-character.

The only entertaining thing about Larry is his parents!
His mother's line from S1, "You're The Number One Soup Eater in America!"
has become a staple quote in our household!

I don't need Cindy to be LIKEABLE; I need her to be REAL.

We could SEE that the shot quota was actually HURTING Fischer; she HATED doing it.

I took it as Fig buying her own bullshit.

They need to move Aleida forwards & Daya backwards; her mother is so much more entertaining than she is!

"comics" & "pregnant" is pretty much her whole personality.
& I can't tell if its the writing or the actress.

I do have a worry that S3 will end with LITCH burning down and then Piper's wacky adventures On The Road…..

WALL ST.

It really would just show us her history of manipulation, from childhood on!
