  1. I’m guessing it was to drown him. He might have even being trying to make it look like an accident, e.g. Grandpa Cartwright fell asleep in the tub and drowned himself.
  2. Qui-Gon Jinn is the Jedi that discovered how to become a Force Ghost after death. Yoda tells Obi-Wan in Revenge of the Sith that he’s been learning from Qui-Gon. I have no idea how Anakin learned since this was after he became Vader. The same reason Leia remembers her biological mother who died in childbirth, I guess. George Lucas forgets or changes his mind in making different movies.
  3. I love it when Leeland’s plots are foiled by the daughters. He should have thought about that before deciding to become a parent.
  4. I was surprised to see Duffy and the soldiers on screen at MI5 headquarters behind Diana and Ingrid. I had assumed it was an off book operation that only a few people would know about. Lamb telling Standish about Parker seemed like a spontaneous emotional response, the first one I remember seeing from him. I think it was more about his disgust with the service for trying to kill its own agents than Standish’s naïveté about Parker. Go River for putting the truth before his career. He will never leave Slough House now though. I was expecting something to happen with Louisa and the diamonds, but I guess that will be a storyline next season.
  5. Agnes was strengthened by the hardship of having the footman serve her lunch last season so the soup wasn’t as fatal as it might have been. I am hoping to see her dine at the Russell’s this season. I would love to see her reaction to an unpaired fork and colored glasses.
  6. Last season there was a storyline with Ada’s suitor wanting money so I don’t think they will do that again. Plus, this is Robert Sean Leonard so I think the priest/ potential suitor is the real deal. I agree with Peggy’s mom. Peggy faced prejudice everywhere in New York, but Alabama had lynchings. It is weird to have that storyline in the same show as the Met vs. Academy one. I don’t think Turner is very smart. She badly misjudged how George would react to her seduction, and she has again failed to recognize the strength of the Russell’s marriage. Bertha is taking her down!
  7. Show whiplash tonight. Last season George threatened to ruin poor Archie Baldwin’s life if he didn’t give up pursuing Gladys. Archie was a nice boy and Gladys was interested in him, but Bertha didn’t think he was good enough. Now George just wants Gladys to have a loving marriage. I can’t believe Larry would tell his mother he was having sex with the widow. Way too modern. Ironically, I just listened to a podcast interview with Julian Fellows in which he complained about writers making female characters to modern for the time period. I will think about Agnes tomorrow when I eat my packed lunch at work.
  8. I feel like almost nothing happens in these episodes. It’s taken 7 episodes for everyone to get to this galaxy. I know stuff has happened but mostly it just resets. For example, Hera got into trouble with the Senate, but Leia saves her. Reset. Always nice to see C-3PO though.
  9. I laughed out loud at this! Tonight I watched the episode with the port-wine stain guy and the pilar cyst country music guy. They both had massive bandages. The pilar cyst guy looked straight out of The Red Badge of Courage with the giant bandage wrapped around the crown of his head to his chin. The other guy I think had a more challenging bandage job because it was the whole side of his face so I am not going to judge.
  10. A shirt with sleeves would cover up the extra boobs, but she still had the problem of them poking out over her bra. I think that could be uncomfortable, and it seems like the extra boobs would get in the way when she moved her arms. She did not mention this, but sexual relationships could be difficult. Telling someone you have 2 extra boobs would be awkward. An issue that seems small to someone else can be a big deal to you when you have to live with it. I had a cherry angioma on my leg removed because I would nick it shaving my leg. It would bleed a lot and take forever to stop. So my insurance may have considered it a benign, cosmetic issue, but I didn’t because of the amount of bleeding. Yeah, I could have just stopped shaving my legs and worn pants, but I didn’t want to because it sucks wearing pants in 95 degree plus heat.
  11. I’m really happy for this outcome. As is, he was just the tertiary bad guy whose main attribute is being a competent fighter - personally, I don’t think revealing he was actually some other person would’ve added anything of value. Either he’s someone who’s otherwise not involved with the story, or they would have to spend backstory time explaining him that these shows don’t really have. Besides, not everything needs to be some big mystery. I’m glad Marrak did not last long. That spinning lightsaber made me dizzy.
  12. Maybe it’s because of the crew. I imagine it’s a tight squeeze in the room with Dr. Lee, the patient, patient support person and all the people doing cameras, lighting, etc. so they might want to reduce the time with all those people in close quarters.
  13. This episode isn’t going to be one of my favorites because the plot is thin, but I give the writers credit for capturing how fans feel about Star Trek in the Lower Deck characters reactions to the Enterprise crew. It felt kind of like a love letter to Star Trek.
  14. I know all kinds of terms for things we don’t use anymore like outhouse, chariot, catapult, and hieroglyphics so why shouldn’t they know “gas station?”
  15. The photographer said he saw one doctor about his hands and feet then never went to another one. Yet, he spoke like the entire medical community in Brazil was unable to help him. I understand he had a negative experience as a child, but he seemed to have no self-awareness, then Dr. Lee miraculously changed his outlook. I would have liked to have seen more of this important conversation he had with Dr. Lee and less of the first guy saying many times that his life was over if Dr. Lee didn’t help him. I feel like they are running out of interesting cases so they try to make the backstories more dramatic. Despite what Dr. Lee said about removing a lipoma on the head being tricky, I knew that thing was coming out because we’ve seen her remove similar masses from the head before.
