Nefercat

I've gotten so frustrated with this season that I didn't even watch this episode and just read here to find out who won and who was eliminated. Now that I know Delvin gets eliminated and Geoffrey wins, I know I can go ahead and watch it without having a rage fit. I mean, I'm still going to have a lot of feelings about Victoria not being eliminated, but I have resigned myself that she's going to be a finalist and will probably win the whole thing. Because "sexy!" and because Nina. Earlier in the season I thought for sure Delvin was a lock for the finals, but as the season went on it seemed he was just really great at tailoring and not great at ideas. Plus, he became such a mean girl along with Brittany that I can't root for either of them. Nancy does need to stop with Those Pants, but she still seems to be way more creative with design than Doctor Housecoat and Ms JC Penney's Misses Tops. Does anyone remember in the first episode if Sergio had a strong influence on Brittany's jumpsuit design? That was so great, and yet everything she's done since has been... not. Sergio annoys me because his shoehorning causes where they don't make sense is insincere, but he is capable of making great clothing. Sometimes when Sergio is going off on some nonsense about "I used red to represent the blood shed by people in wars! [Not really, I just picked a red fabric I liked at Mood, y'all.]" it reminds me of Mondo's outfit with the pattern design for HIV+. We didn't need to know the story behind his design for it to be a great design, but once we did it deepened the meaning and made viewers think about an important issue. If Sergio didn't do the faux cause thing this episode then maybe he's learned it only hinders him. And that would be great because Sergio is capable of making great outfits, plus he's not an ageist jerk which is a bonus in this season. Super glad Geoffrey won and I'm looking forward to watching Leslie Jones hug him!

The rock pile was a cairn, which can have different uses or meanings. The cairn they built was a memorial to the humans killed by the Space Robot back when he had a red face. Each rock represented one dead human, and Dad Robinson had Will bring the biggest rocks he could carry to teach him a lesson about responsibility since the Space Robot now belonged to Will. It was symbolic, but struggling to survive on a distant planet seems like a pretty bad time for a parent to insist on creating a teachable moment.

In the US Catholic Church, the bishop of a diocese can set the age of confirmation for somewhere between 7 (considered the age of reason) and 16. It’s most common to have it in early high school (14-16), but it depends on the individual diocese. Alice continues to make me laugh. Hal: “I want my way or I’m leaving.” Alice: “Okay. Bye.” Hal has a point about the whole stranger-in-the-house thing, but Hal is also a jerk face so I’m on Team Alice in any of their disagreements. Love that Alice is in full-on Lady Macbeth mode because why not, Show. Other than the FBI scenes, Archie is slightly less gollygeewillikers in these recent episodes and it’s a nice change. I missed Cheryl. In a show chock full of bonkers characters, she’s my fave. But at least there was a Bughead hookup. Hope they’re back together for a while. Maybe Juggy can use his ace investigative journalism skillz to figure out who Chic really is! “Excuse me, sir, I saw an ad in my booth at Pop’s about you looking for your missing son. Can you describe your son?” “Well, he had cheekbones...” ”Cheekbones? That’s definitely the guy calling himself Chic Cooper! I’ve gotta tell Betty before it’s too late!”
