I got the impression that Lindsay wanted to keep up with her sister and was scared to be on her own, Paul was available and appeared to be a great guy, so she locked him down. Then she realized they were incompatible (but I don't think she saw how self-centered Paul was because of her own self-absorption) and freaked

1- the worst thing to happen to bar culture (other than calling it bar culture) are mixologists
2- I don't think Lindsay loves Paul. She definitely doesn't like him.

From a strategic perspective it makes sense that Roxxxy is still in the competition. Why waste a chance to take out the top competition if someone will eliminate herself? In the final eliminations isn't the time to be nice.

Gordon in relation to Donna is the precursor to this issue. Between Gordon and her father, she resorted to manipulating them to deal with their unmanageable attitudes and get them to do what needed to be done. She just couldn't see that Cam's meltdowns were temporary and that Cam'd get herself back on track.

You're right, IPO wasn't necessarily the best solution. But based on the belief that they company needed to grow and future-proof itself, and knowing CompuServe would absorb their assets or take all decision power from them, they thought and IPO could address that concern. And @AKA is right, there's greed at play as

I know that Cam had the right idea, but I don't know if it would've executed in a positive manner to warrant a delayed IPO. What if they'd IPO'ed before Commodore lost value? Or what if they chose the wrong Op Systems to add to the mix? It's fair to consider… it's just too bad that personalities got in the way of the

Thanks for the clarification. I dial back on the security point but still think Donna's right about needing a more aggressive deadline and striking while they have momentum. And money gives them the power to size up and remain competitive. I also think Cam made a half-hearted attempt to compromise and when faced with

I think financial security was part of it, but not all of it for Donna. Mutiny did well but it was small and the tech boom had barely begun. In six months the company could've gone bust. But being under the umbrella of CompuServe they gain some stability and someone investing in their infrastructure (with an added

That fire alarm story is my life. Only I set mine off with the dang shower.

What's beautiful is that compromise was sooo possible if the two women would give just a little bit. Donna was right and everyone knew it but dammit Cam has proven time and again that her instincts are right…so just give her some kind of update plan she can get going. Cam had the right idea but couldn't give an inch

Unfortunately Donna then embraces it.

Derp! I meant that Chidi needs to do good things, since he's been too afraid to experience anything. He can't handle an escalator or writing deadlines. And with one criticism of his three thousand page tome, he buckles with uncertainty. Eleanor, who we know fires back that standing up for sexism at a coffee store but

I think the formula is infallible, they are all exactly where they should be, and it is a Good Place. But I think it's a place where it's not about having been good, but learning to be good. Good as in realizing your best self. Eleanor isn't evil, she's lazy and self-absorbed. Chiti is so busy thinking about being

SONUVABITCH!!!!!!!!

Markthulu will be served with a libel lawsuit in three…two…

I think you're right that Cam made the correct decision. But I also think Donna has to step into the decision-maker role when Cam ghosts the company; Cam can't bug out and expect everything to wait on her. Cam has to be more responsible about being off the grid, and Donna has to learn to trust that Cam will come

I'm not sure that Donna doesn't have the bug. I think they said that Donna did a lot of the work for the computer she and Gordon built. She was also instrumental in convincing Cam that Mutiny's bread and butter was its burgeoning online community and not its games. I think she's also more practical about work needing

Whole Foods 360 does.

It's an interesting idea that Donna is a passive aggressive version of Joe. I think you only get that Joe's a viper after you've been burned, though; but where Joe is more of a grand con Donna makes subtle manipulations that take longer to realize.

Cameron is the owner of the company with the majority of shares, although Donna (and Gordon) have a voting stake because of their investment.
