"Ah, blow it out your cassock."

You just gave me an idea to jumpstart this show: Abandoned subway lines, moles on faces — MOLEMEN.

I think there's a system installed in Minneapolis, but it was never put into use. Apparently it could be up and running without too much trouble, but for some damn reason it hasn't. I guess Minnesotans would rather take the skyway or negotiate the tundra sidewalks and snowchains on tires.

I'd prefer a preponderance of Pacific Rim pastiches with all those peaks and palookas; it's a little less preposterous than the prime parable (and this paragraph).

I'd have liked to see her use a Mongolian accent. Dressed the same, act the same, everything the same, just speaking with a Mongolian accent.

Here's the tip that Roy will become Speedy sooner than later (and sooner than his character is probably ready for):

I realize superhero fiction tends to involve the occasional bit of bluntly obvious storytelling, but my goodness.

That's not a bad call, but one proviso: They made it seem like Matt was the obvious culprit, but that's less certain now; then it was Wolfgang, which is also less certain; I wouldn't be surprised if we get something that throws water on Johnno being the culprit as well.

The multi-headed giant geese thing also seemed like a nod to the old Godzilla movies, the one where he fights Ghidora.

Someone with a Rockhopper could rule any tribe in that world.

They still manage to have her in perfectly-done pancake makeup — because it's important to look your best when wandering the post-apocalyptic wasteland.

So… we're punishing you?

That's what Raylan Givens would have done.

I fucken hate predatory stinkbugs…

Louise would own Bart.

@Sarapen I'll give it a go, although there are probably others on here who are real war geeks and will know more/better/mo' bettah.

- Louise had vacation days saved up.
- Helen Kellerman can't see her dog.
- For the second week in a row, Bob has two-fisted his alcohol.
- We now know where Tina got her "AH - AH - AH - AH" stress response from.

That's a solid point about Ragnar representing a shift away from democracy. The trick will be how he convinces his followers (which in a ay includes the audience) to believe they are actually embracing something more democratic or egalitarian while he consolidates power.

Cheers — I'll spout off when I can. Maybe sometimes when I shouldn't.

If it's a legitimate murder, the Saxon body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.
