So... no one here has mentioned the Punisher trailer at the end of the credits... Are we not allowed to mention that in this thread? On the episode, I was glad the season ended on a high note (plot holes be damned!). Whether it all made sense or not, at least it was enjoyable. I don't think we got enough of Malcolm in this series, so I was glad to see him at Jessica's apartment at the end. Like others said, I would not be surprised at all to see Gao return in the future (or more of the Hand), but I hope they will move on to a new big bad. Also hoping for much less Elektra in the future.

I wonder if someone explained it to her off-camera later?

My thought on Zach's comment about "getting tired of this" with Swapnil or whatever: I think on the lingerie challenge, while the idea was admired, they noticed a lack of finishing and kind of sloppy workmanship. Not sure if that's been the case on other things -- I remember thinking his flower skirt on the Hallmark challenge looked like he had spent a good deal of time on it. That said, I totally thought they were setting us up for a Swapnil auf and the Tim Save. I was actually surprised when Swapnil was safe. I mean, there was random, rolled-edge duct tape wrapped around the cables on his dress! I would have considered both sending him home and Tim giving him a second chance completely justified.

Hernan just REALLY irritates me. On the bright side, Amanda annoys me less this week... a little.
