I can buy making breakfast, it's the most important meal of the day (besides Eph's stupid milk affectation). But I'm sure in that situation I would have just tossed the dishes in the sink. I mean, he even washed AND DRIED the frying pan.

By far the most implausible element of this episode was Setrakian doing the dishes of the family he just beheaded.

SPOILER ……. So I thought the film did a great job of conveying how utterly isolated these little pockets of surviving humans were a decade on ….. and then in the last 10 minutes there's suddenly a "military up north" (Fort Lewis? The Canucks?) that's been unaware this whole time that one of the formerly-largest cities…

Guy Pearce swanning around the Outback can only ever call to mind Felicia Jollygoodfellow for me.

How large is the Canadian military that no one notices these octuplets (or however many there are)?

That was an insane shade of orange on Cynthia Nixon. Clearly the show runners have spent no time whatsoever with female senior government officials.

Call me a sadist, but I agree that I did want to see more of Alana's sobbing-in-the-bathtub shame spiral. I have to assume that the very deliberate shot of her still breathing as Hannibal saunters off signals that she'll survive (maybe paralyzed). I'm calling it for everyone but Abigail to live to S3.

I'm somewhat miffed that after building Larrick up as this big bad all season, he was dispensed with by a 17-year-old in the first ten minutes. Ok, with an assist from Phillip, but still…

So whodunnit then? Someone from the Center?

I dunno, I'm still leaning toward the Jared-is-the-killer theory. At some prior point his parents or maybe the Center made efforts to recruit him (outcome uncertain), and he either flipped out and killed his family over some operational task he was assigned - maybe something to do with Fred? - or just a general…

With the pups crated up for the night.

1) Mason's henchmen had clearly wandered in from a 70's Italian horror film.

I've been waiting so patiently for two seasons to see an entire episode of Will sitting on the Beltway while traveling between Winchester and Baltimore for one of these little dinner parties.
