There're very few shows that actually evoke a physical reaction in me, but this is one. My feet were actually kicking involuntarily it was so visceral. It was like… when you see a sleeping dog dreaming about running, and their legs twitch.

Dammit the year until Banshee is back is gonna draaaaag.
So after Cassie died, they showed the scratch on her watch face disappearing. Maybe I'm being dumb but I can't work that one out. This future is changed enough that Cole won;t come back and meet her where they did in episode 1?
Two very shallow observations:
Kai, all scrubbed up and out of his nineties gear? Yes please. He finally looks like an adult rather than an overgrown teen.
And when Elena phoned Stefan after stopping Liam, I was hoping it would just cut back to Stefan and Caroline having hot, humanity-free sex and ignoring the call…
I did enjoy all of Liam's compelled answers - he likes biting lips, thinks Stefan wants to watch him hook up with Caroline, he's terrible at surgery…
I didn't even realised 'til now that Tyler was missing…
Damon approached that all wrong, bring Kai with him to see Bonnie. If he laid it all out for her and then asked without presuming, she'd probably have said yes.
Loved seeing that Martha knew to destroy the tape recorder, including disconnecting the battery, before they started sweeping.
Wasn't that the song used in the very start of episode 1, with Elizabeth in the bar?
There were plenty of boats washed up on that shore, so others must have made it over the years.
Timothy Hutton was basically my first teenage crush. I hired out Turk 182 far too many times, owned The Falcon and the Snowman on VHS (the only movie I ever bought on VHS), set the VCR to record all sorts of things with him in them late at night (Ice Man, Taps, Ordinary People).
Oh, I agree that it's a totally plausible transformation, it's partly why I find it so interesting. It's a position that it's easy to see finding oneself in (slipping across lines like this).
The 'Brock goes outside the law' thing struck me this episode.
The problem for me is that pulling off the twist requires playing things falsely in a way that ended up losing me . Throughout the episode I'm thinking how ridiculous it is that he survived the explosion and merely fell into the basement. This problem is solved when we realise he jumped just before the explosion. But…
He has form here - taking a necklace of Elizabeth to give to Martha in season 1 to mollify her after missing a date.
Every week Kimmy looks younger and younger.
I was expecting Chayton to start swimming, until I remembered the lack of face. See the Bourne Supremacy too many times (or was it Ultimatum?).
When the CIA was being briefed about the virus, while showing a picture of the body from the lab, something was said about it being found - I can't remember the words, but the impression I got was it was a very old body - something like Lindow Man. Could still be Cole, but he might be travelling back to the Stone Age…
