I didn’t comment often over at A.V. Club, but I read frequently. I still can’t tell if it merged my Disqus with my Kinja. Whoops.

I think it seems like Blaine's plan with the blue brains is pretty simple: zombie drugs. You only take a little bit. He's using Don E and his friend to find out how long it lasts so he can figure out proper dosages to sell; remember, he was the one with the Utopium in the first place. He's back to his old tricks and…

I would think he was legitimately amnesiac until *maybe* the end of this episode, myself. It's been stretched out a while and Blaine would have to be an incredibly good actor for nobody to take any hints. Plus the show itself hasn't thrown us any hints.

His response doesn't sound like he thinks he's too good; it's more that he needs to do what's best for his life, and the show happened to be able to make it an absolutely perfect fit for his character arc.

Huh, interesting, then, that I'd never seen that. Thanks.

Are they shown to be robots from the beginning of the show? I'd read a few previews and headlines and NOTHING ever mentioned that, man. As an outsider planning on watching it, it definitely comes across as a spoiler.

There's a line comparing LMD May with the characters in Westworld, and from what I'd gleaned from headlines about the first few episodes, that's a big twist.

Dude, did you really have to spoil Westworld in a completely unrelated review? Not cool.

You sure it's not just because he's not white? Kara and James had plenty of chemistry last season and I see fandom use the "I read it as siblings" defense for interracial romance far too often…

I hope you're right!

The broom gag seems to have been the big one that people loved, and it got a laugh out of me, but the one that seriously killed me was the CAW-CAW from falcon!Greg. Holy shit I guffawed.

It looked like she hadn't realized it was there—they could easily have it fall out of his pocket then dramatically zoom into it before cutting away.

It still could be Connor, though.

I was really not ok with some of the stuff Michael did in the flashbacks, as much as I enjoy his character (and he's a cutie).

The "body" under the sheet was a wooden dummy, so you can't go off that.

Most people see Oliver as just a sweetheart, though. Besides the Annalise job and deleting the Stanford email, Oliver's always been a sweet if insecure guy, especially as far as the Keating 5 are concerned. Connor's the one known to be a bit of a jerk, so it's not really a stretch to think everyone would assume…

That's pretty much the only reason I could see that working, but I would have liked a line about it worked in somehow.

It's entirely possible! One of my ex-boyfriends even has a reputation for doing that exact same thing. It's definitely not something to "tell the woman about what happened".

Maybe, but none of the queer characters in the show ever even posit bisexuality as a possibility, as far back as season one's Aiden subplot. It's bizarre considering Annalise has male and female love interests, yet Aiden can't without every character labeling him gay.

Asher isn't the only white person though.
