It’s inference, but the assumption is she dialed a random number that was not in service [you could hear the canned network message ‘your call cannot be completed as dialed]. First, I don’t think that message comes up for ‘blocked’ numbers, and second, Kendall calls Nate immediately thereafter, and it would be…

• Opening with “Something In The Way” by Nirvana marks yet another perfect soundtrack choice. Who better to express the weariness of the down-bad than Kurt Cobain?

Ted’s speech was a Sudeikis thing.  A chance to reference his feelings on the Bronco’s Elway retirement party SBs and to reference the Price Chopper 7-layer dip.

America is BIG. And in the Midwest a lot of it is flat. And obviously, that wasn’t shot on a soundstage. There are a non-zero number of residences that appear, if you frame it right, ‘in the middle of nowhere.’ But there’s also probably a paved road within a couple hundred yards, leading to a main thoroughfare a…

‘you were never worthy of me, and it all stems from that’ - Shiv’s true skill is in apt summary, whatever the gravity.  But she only has the courage to employ it on people she considers inconsequentual.

“If anyone says “I like it” to a gift in the tone with which Shiv accepts her shiny scorpion, feel free to pre-emptively delete them from your phone contacts.”

Not sure I’d trust the judgment of someone who mocked Paul Stanley’s plastic surgery history so blithely.

champing . . .

Shiv totally primed Mattson for the tweet, . . . granny work camp.

I really wish that the matter of the gun hadn’t been so tidy. There are myriad Mason-esque strategies and arguments about the gravity of how that gun came to be in that place, and what legal maneuvering the Mason/Street organization could or would be willing to perform to either maintain the mystery before the law or…

Hyde Park bound in a hansom . . .

The sun would never set on you, sir . . . 

There’s a dynamic I have been close with my entire life, that I don’t think gets explored enough [don’t know enough to say whether it’s applicable here, but it’s crucial if it is].  Some people are very guarded around people they aren’t close with, and very blunt, to the point of apparent pain from the outside, with…

ROFL - LONG LIVE THE KING!!!!

Sublime dialog, . . . Hugo has no relationship with his daughter [the REAL tragedy, amirite?] but ‘cannot recollect’ if he spoke on the phone with her one day earlier in the midst of the death of his boss.

The untold story of how Cousineau went from dapper and put together to a sweaty pot-bellied mess in the course of his stage performance is the subtle hero of the premiere

They hooted like simians, not hyenas.

Honk says season 2 will go with the chipper chikun.

That bit seemed custom curated for me. The only thing Burberry I’ve bought in my life is also the most inconspicuous. I have a Burberry belt, and the only way anyone would even notice is the thumbnail-sized splash of tartan on the buckle. It’s a very nice, well-made and durable, belt, one of the nicer bits of vestment…
