December 14Dec 14 Moar of the Vegas dealer please Maxx Reeves The mother and son interaction should be interesting. What does a mom want the most if she can have anything(let’s say to give her son the best life possible), and how empty is that if you can’t give it to him education (he’s got it) nutrition (wasteful to the hive) or socialization (will never develop as a person/personality). She can never live her ideal life and denial is the only treatment for the nightmare reality she is faced with. Edited December 14Dec 14 by ChickenSandwich
December 14Dec 14 Man, I want to take that road trip through South America now. That’s some gorgeous scenery.
December 14Dec 14 For as nice as Carol’s house is, having her fridge pushed up against a wall is not ideal. Have fun opening the left side door.I know they built the house for the show and there probably wasn’t a lot of thought put into the kitchen layout, but come on.

Carol drinking beer, shooting off fireworks, and setting the neighbors' house on fire scene to stars and stripes forever was also good. Loved the episode, it was very Gilligan. Manousos showing up and getting Carol re-motivated will be fun. Carol breaking down in Zosia's arms was so soft. Edited December 14Dec 14 by WBT
December 15Dec 15 Does Carol commit genocide if there are no others to witness it? If she has a breakdown alone at her home, does that kill members of the hive or do they have to witness the explosion?
December 16Dec 16 She’s not connected to the hive mind, so at least one of them would have to witness it. She killed 11,000,000 when she threw her first fit. So I guess they ate well for a while
December 17Dec 17 I get that Paraguay guy doesn’t trust the hive mind to fly him to Carol due his limited experience with them, but there better be a pay off that he learns something new about them while under their medical care.
December 17Dec 17 Somehow the radio frequency that Paraguay guy found is going to come back in play. Edited December 17Dec 17 by Texas Jeff
December 17Dec 17 Did he find something? I thought they were all empty static which is why he gave up and went looking for the obvious non-hive mind who called him and cursed his mother.
December 17Dec 17 I predict Paraguay guy walks in on some pirate lady scissoring. A pirate ride, if you will.

December 17Dec 17 The signal came from 600 light years away right? So it was sent in 1425 A.D. Imagine if it had gotten here immediately.

He finished the full scan but had at least one frequency of interest, and went back to check it. He found a signal at 8.613 MHz ... then received the video tape from Carol ... turned off the radio and headed out.

Kind of like daydreaming about winning the lottery. If you could have literally any experience or material possession that humans could provide, what would you do? See the most exclusive places on earth? Go to space? Eat and drink the most amazing things imaginable? You know what this guy would do?

December 19Dec 19 a lesbian sex scene would have been a nice inclusion in that episode. you know, to break it up a bit.

Let’s play the game with a commonly shared experiences. What Austin restaurants would you rebuild to flip Carol - Ez’s on Lamar - Cain and Abel’s (original location) - Baja Fresh on Guadalupe - That weird gyro place by Castillian. - Player’s - Dobie Theater - I’d install a Thundercloud Subs in my house.
December 19Dec 19 i meant it just felt right artistically. There were a lot of unanswered questions. For instance, what type of vibrator did pirate lady rub up on Carol? What brand? What model? Seeing this would have really helped advance the story.

December 19Dec 19 Good shit. A return to form this week. And I’m not just saying that because Carol and Fescue got it on, although that was nice. I guess Carol got over her aversion to fucking the whole world. I’m glad she started asking more questions. One more to go. I prophesy more questions than answers.

Saturday at 01:34 AM5 days Why did Carol take the time to write out Come Back Please on her street, as opposed to just telling them in a voicemail? "Gettin' horny, send the pirate lady over."

"Gettin' horny, send the pirate lady over." The hive was really reticent to return to Carol, for obvious reasons. Hell, even Zosia was ready to bail a few times in that episode. A grand gesture like that showed that Carol was sort of, maybe welcoming them back. Edited Saturday at 04:57 AM5 days by HornOnTheBayou
Sunday at 02:37 AM4 days Author Watching her get Zosia to focus on using "I" and thinking and talking about herself and her individual interests made me theorize that this is how they could recover people. Appeal to that one person as an individual and somehow "awaken" them enough that they break through and somehow reject the virus alien thing. Of course that might take a little while.
Sunday at 02:54 AM4 days If the job is to pass it on, why do they believe K22 is the signal’s original origin, and that they are the first contact?
Sunday at 06:13 AM4 days Correct. Another reason why Gilligan is a great partner. He’d rather light himself on fire than video boobies.There was a topless girl in the Breaking Bad pilot and, to my knowledge, Gilligan did not light himself on fire.
Sunday at 06:27 AM4 days I guess you didn’t watch Disclaimer. Their recent movie All of You also had nudity. I think it’s a misconception that Apple prohibits this, but no one is doing it to the extent that 2000-2015 HBO did it.
Sunday at 04:38 PM3 days Didn’t know her name was pronounced ‘Ray’ until I heard her on “Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me” last night. Some good BCS stories about her or Patrick Fabian opening up their script just to see whether or not they’d survive.
