Bit like rolling the rock up and coming down really eh?

Dinna 'like' it? Ya mean it merited no 'thumb up like'? Mebbe you should consider jellying up the digit, then! ;-)

The reason (metinks) is that it doesn't have such wunnerful words like 'befuddlement' ! Bamboozle, discombobulate …I rest my case. And yes of course I'm going to miss the program - launch S 3 in April 2017 says Hawley!

But God lives in France! The proverbial life of Riley so it's said.

Yes, am thinking that too - 'cos Bear too spooked by the probability of divine vengeance to actually go ahead and pull the trigger to kill his niece even one who had betrayed the family - so consider, did he 'just' kneecap her as a form of punishment? Maybe Hansie witnessed a knee capping and got the idea to…

I see - thanks
I suppose he could be a Gerhardt - he took it on himself to calm Simone down after her tantrum - maybe he thought his was a peacemaking influence on his bumptious country cousin? (Gals need to bust a nut indeed!)

hey there bossyboots - ya sayin' that his name was Ricky Gerhardt? A cousin or some such - from Buffalo NY?

The guy who ran away was the Gerhardt associate from Buffalo - he was the messenger for the incoming calls from Ed and got to stick & twist the knife on the sleeping motel guard at the very beginning of the attack; clearly he didn't like being shot at by police! Methinks the female cop went down in a hail of rounds…

Yes she is - so is Plemmons - but Peg has been 'touched' longer and more freq by ET; characterisation of her being 'touched' makes -more- and different sense after Betsy ventured into Hank's study

Does a bear defecate in the woods?

Plots for s3 to centre on Floyd's story then? - working in several backstories, e.g. Karl Weathers' Chiang stare down, Ben Schmidt's …. plenty of material there (I'm thinking) In the meantime I am thoroughly agog with anticipation abt next week's denouement

Yeah perhaps, but they were there quandmeme…angels on his shoulder throughout, guardians and protectors of one 'earthling' whom they recognise as truly righteous!

Not necessarily into the house… the old man was either still in his wheelchair or already put to bed (not upstairs)- either way he wasn't able to get out of the way while the 'parterre' floor was being shot up by KC shooters from the outside - I don't think they went up stairs to the level where the kids were sleeping…

He meant to kill her but Floyd got out the way in the nick of time .. by hitting the deck with her granddaughter, who later berates Milligan for not shooting her Dad.

Yeah, possibly also some continuity 'no-gels' here - one assumes the blue Lincoln was the car Dodd drove to the Blumkwist house - nit-pickin' here …the series is a knock-out, plain and simple; can't wait until Wed night

yeah Betsy is great and has clearly been around guns all her life - being shown by papa/sheriff Hank there's a disciplined way to use them…but her spying the 3 pairs of foot ware as she came in the house, and her subsequent alarm about it …hmm that didn't quite gel in my take : would ppl who mean you harm in yr house…

I think it's some ref to the Flying Tigers - who used Chiang-controlled bases in Chiang-controlled China after completing bombing runs over Japan - as the distance to fly back was beyond the range of USAF bombers used earlier in WW2 - not until the USN and USMC captured islands closer to Japan (Saipan, Guam etc.…

Hansie went off after Lou & Ed after they had jumped out the police station window. His henchmen had left on Dodd's orders …. while he 'cleaned up'. 2 guys got killed in the basement, one by Dodd, who's in the Sierra Hotel doing the International Tango (Does Dodd? die there too? By cattle prod?) Or does Ed have a hand…

I wonder whether it 'bothered' him there was a woman at the other end of this particular one ? And… uh - did Peggy get the first guy -here Kitty Kitty- by braining him with a kitchen sink - an artefact in her living 'Museum of the Past'?

yes Floyd's trusted housekeeper - she looked faintly native American to me so maybe she's somehow related to Hansie methinks - after all he was brought into the family by stroke victim papa Gehrhart!
