  1. Even though I didn't like Laura's character from the beginning of the show, I quite enjoyed this episode. It's always interesting to see the same story from a different perspective (Shadow's and Laura's love story) to get a 360. I can understand people sympathising with her because of her depression, but you can be depressed and remain a decent human being. I'm also looking forward to the next week's episode.

    But Laura does have a belief system -- she's an atheist. Does everyone who believes that there is nothing after death actually go on to eternal nothingness? A harsh punishment for making a reasonable guess.

    And that's not even what happens with Laura. She does experience an afterlife, that transitional space where she is to be judged by Anubis's scales.

    That's quite interesting what you say here, but you have to understand that Anubis gives her the afterlife of her choice. And as we can clearly see in this episode, Laura doesn't believe in anything, she is a nihilist. The darkness is not a punishment, but a result of her nonbeilef, that's all.

    Avasarala was not threatening Mao's family, but threatening Errinwright himself, to his face. I'm afraid I'm pretty confident that was what was on screen. 

    I definitely got the same vibe. Since she couldn't tell him openly that she knew that he was communicating with Mao, she did it in a more subtle manner. Surprisingly I am enjoying this whole diplomatic storyline.

    The rest of the episode was good, but Naomi really disappointed me and I'm sure her decision will come back to bite Roci's crew on the ass. And it's going to happen soon.

  4. Ok, Cora is dumb, but we already knew that, even though she has become even dumber during the summer break. Mary wants to indulge herself in extracurricular activities, really show? How is that even possible? And that teacher woman was just beyond rude and ill-mannered. The rest was ok, but not that exciting as I thought it would be.

  5. Shocked that Claire enjoyed the first go. It looked accurate for a male virgin, but really, she liked the stabbing and the crushing? I wondered if she being truthful or just making him feel better.

     

    So many women could identify with that kind of sex - it may get you bothered but it doesnt get you OFF. Well, at least the undressing scene was hot - nice foreplay.

     

    I'm not a book reader but I thought for sure that Claire was going to teach Jaime about her magic button. 

     

    I'm so over vaginal orgasms on TV. 75% of women don't have them.

     

    I wanted them to show him learning how to do her oral or masturbate her. Would have been way hotter. 

    Totally agree with you. 5 thrusts and she gets something out of it, wow!  Could that make it a bit more realistic?

    Or maybe she was sex-deprived for so long that she actually did enjoy it?

  6. It's been way too many years since I read the book, but isn't that the point of Dorian? That he has this dangerous allure that folks find it hard to resist? That would go along with the way the scene are playing out. 

    I completely agree with you on that. Dorian is handsome and hypnotizing for normal folk, but I was hoping that Vanessa would see through it, because she is not some regular missy... Oh, well I guess she has to have some weaknesses besides the nightly demon possessions.

  7. Well, all I can say is that Caliban needs to go, pronto! At first I felt sorry for him, not so much anymore. I know that Victorian vibe should be dark and violent, but this terminator style is not cute..

    As for the rest of the episode was just "meh". I really don't understand Vanessa's infatuation with Dorian, everytime she sees him she looks hyptotized and I feel like it should be the other way round. Don't care about Brona at all, her character being so flat and uninteresting. Liked Sembene and that's pretty much it
