    Do you love me?  Do you?  Do you?  How much do you love me?  How much?  HOW MUCH?  Do you love me *this much*?  Do you? 

    followed by child-like giggle into her chubby fists. I was expecting her to stretch her arms out "sooooooooo much"

  2. Well, that's two hours of my life (I'm including the fast forwarding) that I'll never get back. Just some random thoughts about the whole evening...

    The host was almost nonchalant when she said, "Unfortunately, Narkyia and Lowo couldn't be with us tonight..." HUH? I think they owe the viewers more of an explanation than that! Why did they start the season late and also not appear at the reunion? Narkyia's son was adorable but I couldn't help but think his hair looked like a swatch of shag carpet on his head. And for goodness sake, get that boy a "Big Brother." I'm sure nearby Harrisburg has a chapter. 

    Anfisa's white makeup and black dress really did make her look like Morticia Addams. Her white wedding dress made me think she was joining some kind of cult. Thanks to whoever identified those pipes in Jorge's car as grow lights. I'm just naive about these things. I suspect the reasons for their big arguments that Anfisa wouldn't talk about have something to do with his pot growing and or smoking. I call bullshit on her not having rings. We saw Jorge pick out and PAY CASH for the engagement ring and the saleswoman told him it would be ready for pick up "tomorrow." Are we supposed to believe he just left it there and never went back? And I saw them exchange wedding rings at the courthouse. Were they rentals or something? 

    Chantel looked wild eyed! Despite her claims, I don't see one ounce of improvement in Pedro's English. If anything, I thought her Spanish has improved! 

    Nicole talking about maturity? And I loved Robbalee's comments that echoed everything that people have been saying about Nicole all season. I'll bet Azan was relieved when the live video feed went down. 

    Alla was still the most sincere and likable for me all season, even though I think Matt is a doofus. I actually teared up when she explained things to Anfisa in their native language. 

    I know I'll be tossing and turning tonight and thinking of all the things I meant to say here...Back in the morning!

    The USA is a big country, and I have no doubt in the show universe that there have to be pockets of civilization rebuilding.

    At least we're sure of at least one group on the West Coast, right?

    Does anyone remember seeing that Morse Code wall hanging in Rick's house last season? 

    Yes, it was up there back when Jessie and her family were still alive. I'm thinking that Rick and Daryl might have memorized the chart during their spare time (they had more down time at ASZ than at previous hideouts). Here's a POW blinking Morse code, it looks a little like Daryl might've been sending a message....but I could be reading too much into some random blinking.  

    Thanks for the clarification. I could absolutely imagine Rick and Daryl sitting around the kitchen table working out a system to communicate with each other in the event that it was needed sometime in the future. Maybe all of the residents of that house (okay, with the exception of Judith) committed it to memory.

    I really hope the next kid is a boy so she's not trying to drag another one to pageants too. 

    Being a boy won't necessarily save him from his mother making him do pageants. We've seen our share of "Little Mister Nacho Grandes" too. 

    When Kim was claiming she was late because "she had to feed the baby", was she referring to Selyse (why does my spell check keep questioning that?) or her unborn kid? 

  6. It's all about "the flow." Because it's necessary to be able to walk in the front door and see all the way to the back of the house! Because you need to be interacting with your guests when you're in the kitchen! Because you need to be able to see your children every minute!

  7. I think many of us were confused by what seemed to be a two hour long episode Sunday night. The forum for the first episode "Are You Ready for This" was closed for further comments yesterday and some of the discussions were moved to this forum ("Too Little Too Late") and have been continued here.

  8. I couldn't believe the staged field trip to the "eye doctor's" with Cambrie's Court. Lining them up for that eye test was a joke, and certainly nothing that they hadn't experienced every year in school so I'm doubtful they were able to "catch" a previously undiagnosed vision problem. Then trying on colored contact lenses just for fun? I believe only one child actually did so and maybe she already had experience with them? I think they appear to be looking over the judges because they're busy looking at their moms and coaches, not because they can't see them! Plus, when they're on the big stage, with the lights in their eyes, nobody will be able to see the judges anyway. 

    I think Cambrie could have easily brought a more "facially gifted" girl than Selyse since she claimed the IFF pageant was the most important event of the year. Her dimples didn't make up for her unpredictability. And Mama Kim-NOT-Kardashian's voice was like nails on the chalkboard. 

    Jealous Jamie certainly comes across as a sore loser. 

    edited to add: Michael the pageant director reminded me of the male counterpart to Lori of "Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta"

    Didn't they say the dad (or stepdad) is a teacher? Assistant principal?

    I think I recall he's an assistant principal, too. And I also think he's Chantel's stepdad, and my guess is that sister Winter (?) is his daughter and a step sister to Chantel and River. Maybe Chantel's "inheritance" comes from her biological father's family.

    Does Nicole work for Starbucks? I heard Starbucks baristas do OK.

    I Googled it and found they make less than $ 10 an hour, a couple dollars more if they are shift supervisors (which I doubt Nicole is) but I guess they also get tips?

    First Nicole has that smarmy smile, wiggling around on the bench like a little kid asking for something

    She was acting the same way at the attorney's office, all hunched over, shuffling her feet, with a child-like expression wearing yet another "cold shoulder" blouse, but at least she didn't throw a tantrum when the attorney told her the facts of the K1 process.

    When Dorothy melted the Wicked Witch, none of the soldiers retaliated against her.   They were kinda relieved as I recall.   Maybe Negan's men would be relieved too.   Finally, a moment of silence.   Picture them meekly handing Lucille to Rick and saying, "Yes, and take it with you."

    And when the Witch was melted into a puddle, and Dorothy tried to apologize, the soldiers dropped to their knees and broke into cheers of "Hail Dorothy!" I'm just hoping Daryl, Dwight and Sherry, all of whom have reasons to hate Negan, hatch a plan to get rid of him.

  13. I'm pretty sure Nicole bragged about "living on her own" although I couldn't figure out how that was possible on a barista's salary. Would she receive some kind of government assistance if she had some type of disability? Would she qualify for welfare? Food stamps? Something for May? 

    As far as her claim that she slept with some guy before Morocco because Azan "wasn't paying enough attention" to her, I suspect that she throws herself at guys and offers free sex which some might find hard to turn down.

  14. I can't wait for the new special, "Christmas in Morocco with Nicole"! Please, TLC, make it happen...

    I looked online and saw that from LAX to Moscow, there is only one nonstop flight a day, on Aeroflot, that leaves at 3:00 PM. I suspect they missed the chance to go that day, but since they didn't have Anfisa's luggage, Jorge probably had no intention of leaving her at the airport then. I don't know why Jorge didn't get a ticket on the next available flight but knowing how this is scripted, I think it was all manufactured drama. We know from the previews that Anfisa is here for the Tell All show and probably had their courthouse wedding in the scene of them both dressed in white.

    I hate wind chimes so, so much.  I consider it noise pollution! 

    My next door neighbor has one of those "capiz shell" wind chimes that looks like a Portuguese Man of War jellyfish hanging on her porch. Its CONSTANT clanging sounds like someone is emptying their recycling bin, 24/7.
