Did you see the satellite photos for the coordinates that were found in the last episode? And catch the reference to Silo 12? Complete with redacted area.

Here’s my edited post, note that I’ve added the ending parenthesis and a period. I didn’t mean to imply that Robin left because of hurt feelings. Just that she left, which would reduce costs. My comment about hurt feelings was that maybe the actors playing Colter and Reenie didn’t like Velma and Bobby stealing their limelight. And I’m guessing - I have no inside information.
-
I wouldn’t think so. The actor playing Bobby wasn’t a really well known actor. Having someone replace him in every episode means someone is getting paid. Plus wouldn’t the original actor be getting some sort of minimum retainer to keep him from being unavailable at some future date? So now you are paying more than just paying the original actor. The screen time for Colter and Reenie has expanded while that of Velma has been reduced. Bobby has disappeared while we’ve added a new character. Teddy is gone( by the actor’s choice). it seems to me that the lead characters got their feelings hurt that Velma and Booby were well liked by the viewers.

Jessa is a person that doesn’t ever want to admit she’s wrong. She would feel she looked foolish. To turn away from her parents’ beliefs would be admitting she was wrong to believe them. If she didn’t turn away after Josh, she’s probably not going to. Jill wasn’t the true believer as much as she was able to ‘ get along to go along’. She was able to outwardly behave as the joyful daughter, enforcer, talking head, whatever her parents wanted. I think she’d probably repressed the memories of Josh’s abuse until she saw the police report and had to publicly say it was ‘no big deal’ per her parents’ demand. That’s when the tide turned ever so slowly and Derick gradually got her to see that she could step away from them.

So I typed my last comment as I watched. Now I’m to the point where the maid is dead and they’ve been summoned to the warehouse. The body count just keeps going up and the ‘good guys’ just keep making dumb choices.

There was an aerosol can on the table next to the bodyguard in the prior episodes. Presumably the contents were flammable. I find Duffy to be unintelligent and unlikeable. She and Villaneuve are supposed to be senior agents, yet they kidnap a guy and leave an inexperienced agent in charge of him. Both of them should end up in jail.

Since this appeared to be a men’s outing, who was taking the videos? I can’t imagine that the three of them cared enough to film each other. In addition, would it really be so sinful to teach a female to golf? Wouldn’t the golf course be a good place for Renee to catch the eye of a man well enough off to provide for a stay at home wife?

Our son passed away almost two years ago. We know that he most likely died very early on the day before he was found ( welfare check). The death certificate and grave marker list the day he was found. That’s also the date we go by.

Reacher has issues. The ends don’t always justify the means and killing Angel and Duke just because they were in his way isn’t justified. Neither was threatening his life at the time, just his ‘mission’. The female DEA agent is totally ok with the killings and the kidnapping of the bodyguard. I’m not sure the male agents know about the killings. It’s obvious that her bosses know none of it. DEA agents don’t act this way. This season isn’t enjoyable for me at all - but my spouse is stlll watching.

I have watched a lot of Intervention episodes. Many of them about addicted with children that are being raised by the addicted person’s parents. Addicts that are allowed visits with those children… and they show up at the house high. It’s very unsettling and sad.

Addiction is a disease not a choice. It’s a choice to try some alcohol or tobacco or gambling or illegal drug for the first time or second time … But it’s not a choice to become addicted to it. Recovering addicts struggle every day of the rest of their lives to refrain from taking another dose of what they became addicted to. Opioids are not illegal drugs. They were and are prescribed by doctors. Opioid manufacturers ( much like cigarette companies) lied about the addictive attributes of their product. Maddie is fighting to prove that the manufacturer and the law firm hid the truth for 10 years. I assume that she feels that her daughter might not have taken the pain pills at all if she knew the truth about them at the time. We now know that truth. That’s the reason I refuse to take oxycodone and only take Hydrocodone briefly after surgery.

Epcot is for all ages while Magic Kingdom is more for kids. Epcot sells alcohol in the countries area ( at least). So there are adults who do go there for the day. However Jill and Dave spent considerably more than $500 even if they came home each night. $500 for one day for two people would be difficult if you include meals and t-shirts (blouses). It was ill advised to do this trip - especially since she was just crying about ‘business up and downs’. Responsible small business owners tighten their belts during those down times and put money away during up times.
-
So she’s worried about the ‘business up and downs’ enough that she cries. Then immediately goes on an outing that first involves spending money at a coffee shop rather than having coffee at home from her brand new coffee bar. Or from Nurie’s coffee bar ( if she was in Florida). Then she orders first and sits down. Normal moms of teens ( she still has teens) order last and have one of the teens save the table. Of course normal moms of teens pay for the coffee. I have no sympathy for Jill’s woes: she and David chose their life - they now have to deal with the resulting money problems of having no real jobs and the worries of having 13 children. Go home, get jobs, put your kids in school.

I haven’t seen a series yet that sticks to the books. If they like a minor character ( or the actor/actress), then they’ve land the role…, or they eliminate other roles. Yes , I’m talking about you Outlander season 7 part 2. Is it just me, or is this show trying to become a dramedy this season? Too many things being played for laughs

Jill has a FB video up of two Valentines dinners in Florida. One being Nathan’s church, I think Jill and the family are half the attendees. Several of the other women attending are wearing … jeans. I wonder what Jill’s offspring thought when they saw Nathan’s female parishioners in jeans at a church event. Not denim skirts actual denim pants.

Yes, but the mail doesn’t always get postmarked on holidays. That’s what Jill wants to use to say a person got their registration in on time. She is not even home to open these envelopes and record registrations. Unless she gets so many entries that she has to have a waiting list, why does it matter when they mailed it if she isn’t going to be home for two more weeks? She doesn’t even understand that postmark and post date aren’t the same thing.
