The producers had to hire a special tailor and develop a new type of fabric to make Jonathan Majors’ white tee that tight.

But shoving things up my motherfucking [EXPLOSION] is the only thing I’m good at!

Given the time period the season was set in, I was awaiting to see when Vanya’s Russian name would get her in hot water. And it did, but the water was electrified and then became eyeballs.

I found it a little weird that he didn’t acknowledge that he was clearly having fun, but I also chalked it up to him knowing he likes it—he just can’t be that person anymore. He doesn’t want to be who he is when he’s savoring gruesome ax murders.

This is about the first time this season I didn’t tune out when the Commission was the main setting/plot point, so it might be improving as a... character, I guess, for me.

On the bright side, this episode had some nice bits for Herb!

Aidan Gallagher is so great at playing a 58-year-old man that it’s easy to take his performance for granted. But it’s truly remarkable just how much he manages to feel like an equal to actual 61-year-old Colm Feore, especially as Five wistfully apologizes for his childhood rebellion.

It wasn't her fault. After an incident involving a one-armed man when she was a child, she's always sure to leave a note.

I loved that bit where the Hotel employee tackles Five not because he just killed a bunch of people but because he destroyed a vending machine.

Call this a fanwank if you will, but I got the impression no one thought Diego was competent enough to succeed at saving Kennedy, so they just didn’t bother arguing with him.

The Öga För Öga scene is comedic gold. Luther and Diego are basically my last two brain cells.

David Castañeda is a stealth MVP for me this season. Five’s actor is the strongest of the bunch, by far, but God, Castañeda makes Diego into something more than a Batman-wannabe. (He would make an excellent Jason Todd. Somebody cast him as Jason Todd. He could breathe such life into that role.)

Yeah, The Handler’s been helping fill the Cersei Lannister-sized hole in my heart.

I have to admit, I rolled my eyes when Klaus first brought up the overused “scorpion and the frog” fable, only to have him brilliantly bungle the whole thing. Well played, writers, well played. Also, no one does “entertaining dirtbag” better than Robert Sheehan.

The rankings were never about power but about usefulness to Reginald. This is why Luther is Number 1 - he was the most obedient.

Luther, truly, is a big-hearted goober. 

This is another minor Lila spoiler, but.....

I mean she just had to go mute for a year after having her throat slit and the world ended because her father had her use her powers to hurt her sibling. I could see that making her realize that her powers weren’t an easy fix- especially when given a new start on life 

I have to admire Allison’s discipline. If it’d been me, I would’ve been spreading rumors all over the place.
