Scout Finch

That was Emilio in the office. Jesse was talking about an earlier time when Saul helped Combo.

Yay, I was actually right! I called it last week that in all likelihood it wasn't just a case of Carol Burnett liking the show and wanting to be on it in general but that she knew her character would be THE one to take him down. I was only incorrect in that I thought she had also lived in ABQ but like most of us it was fairly obvious that the computer wasn't just introduced into the show for no reason. Heh, the Life Alert lived up to its name. "I haven't fallen but a man's here trying to kill me!"

Her son, Jeff, had an ABQ air freshener in his cab which freaked out Gene because the guy also kept looking at him in the rearview mirror and I perceived the sinister tone as him thinking that this was someone nefarious that had been sent to find him and it wasn't just a coincidence that he was a passenger. Apparently, he was just concerned that Jeff would recognize him, which is what did happen and Jeff confronted him in the mall. That was why Saul roped Jeff into committing crimes--not for the money but because he was concerned that Jeff might turn him in for a reward so he shut that down by hanging felony crimes over Jeff's head. I'm assuming both Marion and her son had moved from ABQ.

Unpopular opinion but I never cared for Kim so I'm fine not seeing her again. It's quite plausible that Marion could be Gene's downfall. Not for nothing did she witness the garage coming and goings and also, since she's originally from ABQ she's kept thinking she's heard his voice before (from all the TV ads). It's one of the those very common things that drives you nuts: "I could swear I know that person from somewhere." She finally remembers, pulls up an old commercial, and compares the faces. Perhaps it's not just that she loves the show and was happy to play any tertiary character, but Carol Burnette knew she would get to be the one who ultimately takes him down.

Tears of joy and a huge smile on my face! I miss Breaking Bad so much. The neighbors around the complex may or may not have heard me through the open window: "OMG! WALT! JESSE!" They were supposed to be in Episode 10 but it was worth waiting another week for. All it took for me was the initial shot of the RV keys and the barrel of methylamine to know where he was. That shot of the grave dissolving into the bed was amazing. Coincidentally, after not hearing it for years, last week I heard Madonna's "Don't Tell Me," which has the line: "Tell the bed not to lay, like the mouth of an open grave."

Well, as they sometimes say: "A face only a mother could love." I couldn't even look at that thing, it was too creepy!

Is it bad that I don't remember who the heck Grace is?!

Okay, so the Magic 8 ball was explained but how would the stuffed animals' expressions change after leaving the store?

It's so refreshing to see representations of my body. The only difference, really, is that I have a face. ;-)

Heh, I wonder if there was a slight uptick in their sales today! ETA: Company Tweet: "sooo how many Cinnabons do you think that security guard ate." They also retweeted someone that posted after the episode: "Anyone else craving Cinnabon today?"

Damn it! I haven't had a Cinnabon since sometime last year but now, thanks to this episode I am too weak to resist. But since it's 100+ degrees out (and very humid in the Pacific NW), I'm having some delivered. Vince needs to reimburse me!

I love this movie! Ordered the DVD right after I rented it years ago. I've had friends watch it and they've all liked it.

Caleb: Sabina definitely has a look and a style. Me: It's, uh, a look all right and, um, interesting... I do give her a high five though for the kombucha snark because I don't understand it either! The one time I tried it it just tasted really vinegar-y.

If I recall correctly, he said that the reason John initially moved in was to help with the house expense that Patrick couldn't afford after his ex left and he was down to one income. I wonder if he also has to pay alimony?

Okay, so I was too eager to see this episode right when it dropped that I paused Only Murders in the Building, right in the middle of a scene where party guests are playing a card draw mystery game where they have to figure out who got the killer card. Scene in Evil: card draw mystery game at Kristen's! (Count Floyd: Oooh, scary, boys and girls!) Somehow, this has to be a consequence of continuing to skip the intro. 👻

I will never stop wanting one!

Shouldn't that be "more stupider"? ;-)

I found the thread of the woman who babysit a very young (5 or 6) Ari, so I had the self-harm part wrong. Further down the page she also talks about how toxic the family were. It's on Reddit though and I don't think we're supposed to post the link. Is that correct? Just put "I used to babysit Ariel's!" into the search box over there.

I'm sure they'll 'figure it out.'" Pretty sure it was on here or Previously TV that a babysitter or nanny of Ari's when she was growing up posted about a few times about how she witnessed how badly Ari was treated by her half-siblings and that's when she began self-harming (cutting).

Because Michael Emerson did such an amazing job, to the point that when later in Linus' storyline where he becomes more and more broken that I actually felt a lot of empathy, is the reason I've been following him from show to show ever since. Particularly loved his character in Person of Interest! I don't think I would have even begun watching that show--or Evil--if it wasn't initially because of him.

BWAH! I clicked on the Skip intro button and although it did, a little message appeared at the bottom: "Skip this intro and you will be haunted!"

When he wasn't onscreen, they'd still refer to him all the time, "Where's Jack? Is he still sleeping? Here's his sippy cup. I wonder if his mood will be good or planet-disrupting today? Did he have a BM yesterday?"

I didn't the first time but this time around am either muting or, like I'm doing now in S12, fast-forwarding through any scenes with scenery-consuming Mark Pellegrino's one-note Lucifer. Is he ever NOT sardonic? As much as I dislike Metatron, he's a lot less annoying. At the end of S12 and now I have three seasons of wishing I didn't know Jack [shit].

I've watched this so many times! Cecily does an amazing job and I also crack up at Aidy Bryant nailing the screeching voice of the real-life lawyer!

The most appalling, sorry-ass, inexcusable, cringe-worthy aspect of the show? That I will, of course, continue my questionable pattern of watching it.
