My closed captioning had Uma yelling that about the drone.

When they are in the limo, they stand up through the moon roof and are eating In-n-Out food. I just assumed he wanted to go get some food there first.

I expected this to happen next week, but as the episode unfolded, I thought we might get the ending we saw tonight. My own father died suddenly of a heart attack, and this episode brought up memories of that day. The shock, the disbelief. All of it. Bravo to the actors, they were all amazing in that last scene.

At the time of Diana's death, her brother was in Cape Town, South Africa, which means he would have had nearly a 12 hour flight just to get to Paris. As others mentioned, her two sisters did go with Charles. As she was the mother of a future king, I think the combination of her sisters and Charles flying to Paris to retrieve her body was the right decision. Her brother wouldn't have been able to get there in a reasonable amount of time.

It wasn't just one person, it was 12 mermen who dove, one after another, down onto the stage (and none of them died).

I'm not sure about Season 1, but in Season 2, when she meets Alice, Alice says she wants Mabel's dress. Mabel replies, "you'd like my aunt's closet, because that's where I got this dress from."

Red mark on Ben's face: Maybe an allergic reaction to something?

Of course he could have eaten cookies at any time. But the only time we SAW cookies (and that is what I believe Shapeshifter is referring to in the comments I quoted, such as " Maybe Ben went back to the cookies and binge-ate them all? ") was at the table read. My post was in response to that, because the only time we actually saw him with cookies was at the table read, which was months before he "died" onstage. Long story short, cookies probably are going to be an issue at some point, since they emphasized how he is about cookies, but I don't recall seeing any cookies around or hearing them mentioned (yet, anyway) on the day he "died" onstage. Only at the table read months earlier.

I thought the only time they actually showed cookies, and we saw Ben take a bite, was the table read scene, which was months prior to his collapse on stage. And in that scene, when it was asked where the cookies were from, it was Howard who answered. Of course I may have missed seeing cookies another time, but that is the only time I remember seeing cookies.

No, because bismarcks are, in fact, donuts.

I had mentioned previously that a house in our neighborhood was being filmed for an episode of House Hunters; the recent Tampa episode is the one that included it. The house was the second house with the fenced pool. It's interesting to me that they didn't show all of the house. There is a lovely guest suite on the first floor with it's own bathroom with large walk-in shower, plus a dining room, and a half bath that were never mentioned or shown, nor was the second floor laundry and additional full bath. In regards to crossing the street to the park, this is a gated community of 120 homes with very little traffic. As for gators, they are a fact of life in Florida, and you just have to assume that there are gators in any body of water you see. That said, I would never have a pool here in Florida without having it completely screened in to keep critters out. And, I was surprised at the price asked for this house, especially since this house has very few upgrades from the standard builder finishes. But prices have really skyrocketed since we started building our house here 2+ years ago. Another drawback to this particular house plan is that there is no front porch or anything covering the front steps, which means if you get something delivered and you're not home, the packages are very visible from the street, plus will get wet if it rains.

Ha. Not a cent. To answer my own question, the current owners of the house being featured said they were told this episode should air in about 4 months.

Does anyone know how long it is between filming and the episode airing? We just found out that House Hunters will be filming next week at a house down the block from us. Our HOA sent out an email about it and asked us to be sure to have our front yards spruced up just in case they show our homes.

Poppy did text them. She tells them, "I just wanted to make a good podcast. I just wanted Cinda to notice me. But things went wrong right from the start. Right from that night that I texted you to get out of the building and you came back to your apartment."

Mabel had the green ring at the end of season one, as she and Oliver found it when they were searching Jan's apartment. Mabel was wearing it when she decked Jan in the basement. But I don't know if we ever knew what happened to the ring after that, did we?
