Delayed Action Chekhov Gun!

I agree. Sooner or later all this traipsing around willy-nilly and killing random people, along with a few who die before they can make the history they were supposed to, has to have some kind of effect on the present.

It must be really, really bad to make her want to live in a remote cabin in the woods, in the Old West, for ten years to avoid it.

I'm still waiting to find out Agent Christopher is married to a man and has 2.5 kids and a Shih Tzu back at home. There has to eventually be more fallout from all the tinkering with the timeline they're doing.

I had to dig a little bit for the actor. He's Zahn McClarnon. He was in the second season of Fargo and plays the tribal police chief Mathias in Longmire.

This episode deserves an A+; Very well-written and thought provoking. The show has toyed with the balance between Flynn’s morality and methods, but this episode has him pause and take a look at himself. Until now he’s never really thought twice about icing anyone in the way of his plan, but his experience with Jesse…

He was Grant Johnson, a real lawman who indeed served with Bass Reeves. He actually died in 1929, so that extra few days Jessie James was allowed was costly. There's no telling how much damage the other people he murdered on his extended timeline did…

In the EP universe he's doing it with the Crown's blessing. Hard to believe after the Alexander Litvinenko affair, but the film being so good made suspension of disbelief a lot easier.

Okay, somebody's got to ask the question. It's just pathetic it has to be me.

They both have a way of being completely terrifying without saying much.

I've heard that Mortensen had to wash off the ink when he went off the set because the tattoos were so realistic he was scaring people out in town who knew what they meant. Apparently he went to eat at a Russian restaurant in London wearing them and the place went silent.

I think it could be the 21st Century's answer to the Godfather Trilogy…

"Eastern Promises" was an awesome movie and a well worth watching again and again, even though the high point of the film is the big reveal that Nikolai is actually a cop and has infiltrated the Russian Mafia to its upper echelons. I'll never forget the look of sadness on his handler's face when Nikolai shows him his…

Overall a solid return for the series after the holiday break. I give it an A.

And it seems like a cool place to store your guns.

I just wondered why they had a room full of presumably human brains in jars to start with, and the CEO was cool with it until he saw the alien one.

Well, yeah.

Agreed. That spicy tuna roll wasn't going to get any better with age!

It was kind of a play on Superman. As stated by David Carradine's Bill, the Clark Kent persona is the disguise and the glasses the costume. The tights and the cape are his real clothes, brought with him from Krypton.

Moffat does indeed love the twist ending at the end of a season-long story arc. Maybe too much.
