  1. Way back in an earlier season Nancy used it to proof bread - Paul didn't think it would work but it did.
  2. There was a quick scene where Danny says that Imogene's father is in CA and has an alibi - so I'm hoping he's not her father after all!
  3. I think that's part of it, but also in the first episode a couple times she said "you told your mother?" about the arrest and I think about another thing too. Maybe she's too worried Wayne will tell his mother who she definitely doesn't trust.
  4. I think she was already his assistant (or that was my impression). Which was probably why he paid for her rehab.
  5. this is what I suspect may happen, but didn’t Fabiola get in early decision? That usually means that their choice is binding and the student is obligated to go to that school vs early action where you still have a choice on which school to attend.
  6. Really liked this episode, and quite liked Hannah. Hope she isn’t the killer.
  7. I think this is a great distinction. Rebecca's end goal was to hurt Rupert, but her way of doing so was essentially to destroy a business; not great obviously, but no one would have been personally hurt by it. In fact, Rebecca basically succeeds (she confesses too late to turn them around from relegation) but the team is stronger than ever. And I think most importantly, as you mention she was never personally cruel to anyone (Higgins aside, which I think is a different situation since he did directly and intentionally hurt her by hiding the affairs). She was always polite and kind to Ted and everyone else she interacted with. Nate isn't only cruel to Ted but to anyone he thinks is beneath him, including Colin, Will, the West Ham players. He completely ignores the woman who greets him "Good morning." He's generally unpleasant vs. taking his anger out on a specific person/situation.
  8. What setting are you using? I'm watching the default "original" - so I only get subtitles when they aren't speaking English, but Netflix doesn't tell me what language the subtitles are for. I figured out Ling Yi and her mother weren't Japanese from context, but I didn't realize they were speaking Cantonese (vs. another non Japanese Asian language) until I read it here.
  9. Me too! The first time I wasn't quite sure which of the two ships disappeared. Probably because she's rich and white in the 19th century, and they're not. They're poor foreigners that don't even speak the language, and likely everything they currently own is really hers. She could probably make any claims - they attacked her/tricked her/stole from her, and everyone would pick her side. Even if they're on a cruise ship, I'm sure there's a cell / jail in case they need to contain someone (like they do this episode with Olek and Jerome). She and her mother could be thrown in there, then passed to authorities once they reach port. I think she was a prostitute they knew and were friends with - I didn't get the impression she was her sister, since the mother seemed really adamant that her daughter not be a prostitute, and that girl already was. Mrs. Wilson was expecting an experienced prostitute and probably met her at the brothel - she tells Ling Yi that she already said goodbye to the girls at the brothel and stopped by to say bye to her and her mother. I think you have the rest of it right though. I didn't realize they were really Chinese until I learned they were speaking Cantonese - but I figured they weren't Japanese since Mrs. Wilson doesn't want them speaking in public (and others hearing that they're not Japanese) and since they were trying to learn Japanese. I think Mrs. Wilson thinks she can get more money if they are advertised as exotic Geishas. So she is having them learn Japanese and won't let them speak Cantonese in public.
  10. Lol I couldn't understand why they didn't wait until daylight! Yeah she kept reminding me of Rosamund Pike. Same here - I never watch with dubbing anyways, but when my coworkers recommended this show they also reiterated not watching it with the dubbing. I was super confused when it started in English - I thought my settings were wrong!
  11. Just curious, do we know for sure that Cinda knows Poppy is Becky? She doesn't seem to threaten her with jail time or anything serious, just promises she'll never do well in this industry. She certainly doesn't treat Poppy as someone who could easily destroy her credibility and the success of her podcast just by coming forward about her identity. I'm wondering if Poppy/Becky never intended for her disappearance to turn into what it was, but with Krebs planting evidence and Cinda turning it into a national sensation, she was too afraid to come forward and just latched onto the podcast as a way to keep tabs on everything. Or another theory...has Cinda had any prior successful podcasts or was the Becky one the first? If she's faked evidence leading to a successful podcast before Becky, maybe it ruined the life of someone Becky knew, and she decided to get revenge by creating a fake story to draw Cinda in and then plans to bring about a fall from grace. And she's the mastermind Krebs was talking about.
  12. In most similar games like this anyone can nominate another player as the killer. Typically you have a short amount of time ( 1-2 minutes ) to argue/ plead your case etc and everyone votes. If there's a big enough group you may have a couple people nominated and voted on, but the person with the most votes is out. There's also always a narrator (Oliver) who guides the rounds. The way they played at Mabel's seems pretty typical of how I've seen these games. The way Oliver played in the flashback was odd, usually the narrator doesn't participate, just facilitates the game.
  13. The basic premise of the game is to have the killer and everyone else. The killer chooses a victim during the "blackout," then everyone votes on who it could be going with majority vote. If they pick the killer, the game is over and the killer loses. If they're wrong, the person voted is out. And you keep playing rounds, until either you pick the killer or the killer is the last one standing. There's different versions, Mafia is a popular one where there's other roles like doctor or detective. During the "overnight" portion where the narrator has the killer secretly pick a victim, they can have the doctor pick one person to save, and the detective gets to pick one person they think is the killer while the narrator confirms or denies. This would give the detective the chance to sway everyone else one way or another during the vote.
