But Gary IS Cary, with another smaller bit inside itself.

I don't think it's tying in knots, I didn't think twice about it at the time. We're just telling you why most of us didn't think twice about it. "Nine months later" is an EXTREMELY common phrase to indicate the end of pregnancy. Cary didn't literally count out "letsee, they got the sonogram in March, and I was born in…

I had to pause it after the first 5 seconds when THINGS THAT CAN'T TALK STARTED TALKING TO HIM crikey. The rest of it does not let up with the creepy vibes.

TCE: It's a reference to Always Sunny in Philadelphia, where it has become pretty clear one of the characters is a sexual predator, or at least a wannabe sexual predator.

Oh man, I just read he was the cross dressing guy in one of my favorite High Maintenance episodes. Now I see it, but I would probably have never caught that myself. Never saw Downton but I assume he was completely different there too - awesome range, this guy!

Jesus Christ on a fucking cracker, you guys, know your motherfucking accents!

I think the only answer we're gonna get right now is "sometimes he bodily changes places, other times it's just in his head". This one is unclear. Maybe in 2 episodes we'll leave Clockworks and be right back in that room with bullets approaching. Who knows!

I had a lot of questions about the whys and hows of the last segment too. We've never seen David actually mess with people's perception outside of his head before, I think. Jean Smart suggested they might have "entered his reality" or something as they approached, but any time that happened before there wasn't really…

What would've been extra brilliant is, he's literally the best person in the world to sell the concept of one person being separated into two in Charades.

I was actually surprised they allowed him to appear in a plain white room since it seemed inevitable it would not be as threatening as the previous appearances. But the sheer oddness of his look combined with the dead eyes and implacable movement still made it work, at least far better than I expected, despite the…

Mojo stated his perspective very rudely, but what he's addressing is that you're promoting some psychological theories that at the very least have not achieved a published, broad consensus. You've also implicitly accused any who would disagree with you as being corrupted by the influence of biased defense attorneys…

The only people she's talked to who weren't there are people who themselves had telepathy. Keeping with the review's precedent of surprising Star Trek references, it's like when Troi and Riker telepath to each other in the TNG pilot even though Riker is just a normal human.

Actually (tm), even clairvoyance ("clear vision") can be used as an umbrella term for any kind of viewing through the mind, whether future or present-but-remote. Precognition or prescience is more specifically for the future…I don't know why "prevoyance" isn't a thing :)

Poor Rudy. I had kinda forgotten he was even seen or named in the first episode; he just kinda "was there" this week which triggered my Red Shirt Alert.

Exactly. Once in his mind, she was appearing as a separate entity so we can be somewhat optimistic that it really was just him in bed. Physical reality is a different story.

There was definitely a glance of "did I just have sex with a demon?" when Cary told them about the parasite, although she seemed to either reject or decide against it pretty quick.

Like I said when they were talking about being in each others' bodies in a previous week, I am definitely looking forward to them exploring this possibility once they both get more comfortable with their powers :)

I need a second version of that scene with subtitles - "motherfuck" was the ONLY thing I got out of it haha.

I actually know nothing about the Shadow King from the comics but I am not put off at all by people calling it that. It's scary and roughly suggestive of its role - as good a name as anything else. I guess if you actually know the character but don't like it here, that wouldn't be so good :)

But that's the point of the forgetting, isn't it? To make David "happy", keep him docile, make him think nothing's wrong. I don't think the reviewer was saying David was necessarily consciously creating this reality, but this happy place is the mechanism the parasite is using to exploit him and defend itself.
