I was woken up by a voice in my head just this morning, it was telling me I was "completely useless" and that my "life is in shambles" :)

Was wondering this too. Do the Castors have healing powers? Was Coady trying to find out if Helena has them too when she was waterboarding her and everything?

Definitely watch very far away from the screen and be ready to shut your eyes at every given moment, it helps loads!

Come on man, Delphine is no angel, that's the beauty of her character. And I say this as a cophine shipper

I wonder how Felix introduced Cosima to Bobbi and everybody else at the bar. "This is Cosima, Sarah's long-lost twin" or maybe "Sarah is having a spiritual crisis and now she's a lesbian with an American accent, just go along with it guys".

that would be the hair!

I just read Alison's issue of the OB comics, in the flashback it looks like they started dating in college too

On the other hand, Mark hugging Rudy was a total case of "god, this is the same dude hugging himself"

Hee, it's cool beans, you're a logic-driven person and I'm more of an empathic, those are both very valid ways to go about one's life.
I still maintain that Shaw is an important, well-written character though :)

Oh, gotcha, I'd forgot about that line. Thanks!

Wouldn't that have been an interesting convo to hear, though. Did The Machine present itself as female because Root digs that and it needed to woo her into the team? Did Root ask to use female pronouns and The Machine went with it in a "whatever floats your boat, darling" sort of way? I think it could go either way…

Well, yeah? That's how usually liking characters goes? To each their own? I respect the opinion of anyone saying they like Dominic or Greer better than Shaw, but I disagree with them and if possible would engage in a discussion explaining why I think Shaw is a compelling character?

Don't forget Harper thought Thornhill was a woman, so the Machine must have presented itself as female to her as well.

During the Dominic/Elias scenes I suddenly realized how different it would all have been, the stakes so much higher, if we had Shaw tied to that chair instead of Harper. Judging by her encounters with Dominic at the beginning of this season, they were probably due to a final showdown that now will never happen, I…

(This has nothing to do with anything, but thanks to your profile pic I just read your whole comment in Greer's voice, and it was a terrifying experience)

Agree re: Dominic and Greer, REALLY disagree on Shaw.

Literally it takes less time to show someone shot in the head than someone tied and dragged away or shot in the shoulder but still moving, both those scenes were deliberate

Elias and Control should get married and have their own spin off ;)

That would be such an interesting concept to explore, though. Has the Machine at some point decided to give itself a gender? What brought it to that decision? Did Root have anything at all to do with it?

And Shaw has to be the one who puts that damn bullet in his head
