And queer women!

They are weird about the reunion episodes every season. I was a little surprised they didn't have this one, since it's before the finale episode, but I wasn't shocked.
I'm just really glad I didn't stay up waiting for it last night!

Peppermint will forever be Miss Congeniality in my heart.
I mean, Valentina telling Farrah to shut up while holding the trophy was every bit as telling as it was iconic.

I think it points more to how so much of the editing for this season's episodes was a choice™ - it really does seem as though the after-school special stuff was as much of a fakey insert as some of the more cynical of us thought it was.

Wow, cutting that was some serious romper room edit-fuckery. I hadn't seen it - cheers for sharing the link.

That was the first season of The Wire I caught on TV and it was the one that hooked me. Schrieber was incredible in it.

I have no idea about the first part, and the subtitles were less than helpful, but the last bit (Nílim chomh olc ná sin, nílim!) translates to "I'm not as evil as all that, I'm not!" They have him say "nílus" insteaid of "nílim", which might (I'm no Old Irish scholar, I only speak the modern version) be an older form.
