Also made me think of many images of Spider-Man surveiling people.

"Your new name will be Mister Thompson. Hello, Mister Thompson."

Possibly people who've been following Hunger Games…

And the one of the three who seems most like the bad guy is the most central character played by the most well known actress (who, need it be said, it's great to see again). I love that the secretary is consistently trying to not be any worse of a homewrecker than necessary.

Kind of the opposite of "had me at hello" I guess.

I think it would feel like karmic retribution, but might be the first step to making him likable. Not enough by itself, but it's not as if 1st season Kevin was always all that easy to watch either.

Yeah an interesting cross-current of male search for identity in a female-empowered world. So it's not satisfied being the best superhero show about one gender, it's going for two.

When we saw the back of his head in the hallway, my whole body tensed up. THAT'S a villain.

It works on a deeper level too: he's uncomfortable with asking this young woman to fix things he doesn't know how to fix, so he wants to fix something of hers.

Hey, nobody cares more about THIS FAMILY.

My first thought was she didn't want to risk tearing him apart (since she doesn't know his whole deal yet), but it could definitely be two things.

Purple either way. Upcoming villains may include Prince & Little Richard.

Knocking people out that way isn't risk-free for amateurs, even those without super-strength. JJ should study sleeper holds (maybe borrow someone's trainer).

Could be very bad news for John. Kevin & Virgil dead just as John gets proof that Kevin's palmprint is on the daughter's car…John becomes the prime suspect in two murders.

Jaws II?

Never been easier to catch up on it. Dark Horse did color reprint books of the original Marvel stuff - "Star Wars Omnibus: A Long Time Ago" Volumes 1-5, right before they lost the license. Can usually be had for about $10 a piece used…more for the early ones and less for the later.

OMG that was a "Different Strokes kids show up on Facts Of Life" move. Hey, this new droid must be cool, he's R2's pal!

Especially since Ketsu would have abandoned Sabine AGAIN if the droids had let her.

I've never felt more than momentarily sorry for Stormtroopers until this show, despite all the Clerks talk on the subject, but now it's hard not to be. It seems like it's the heroes who are constantly escalating the situation from talking to killing.

I was half-expecting the show to end with "Where's Ezra?" / "Oh yeah, I left him back there with the Imperials chasing him" and he'd get a mostly solo next ep until they came back for him. But no. He just got away somehow.
