Of course, if he has sex with Brona once she's up and about, the situation might be both apt AND ironic for a necrophiliac. (She's sort of dead, but effectively immortal too.)

I couldn't get invested in her performance, either; it seemed all surface. But it might still serve to set up future enjoyable developments.

Thank you for not saying "grizzly"; only Colbert fears such a death.

"Wanted" was so much better than it had any right to be.
