    Only Speculation Without Spoilers In the Thread

    I can't figure out who Tim would've seen murder Zoe to make him clam-up and not try to free Oscar. Some sort of authority figure? Other than Zoe's or his parents, I have no idea (and the odds of his parents killing him are...0?) 

    Tim must've felt safe moving back into the building, and the most likely scenario I see is that the killer didn't know Tim could identify him, but when Tim lost his job he started blackmailing the killer. (How did Oscar not witness the murder is a question I have, too. He never accused anyone for his defense?)

    However it shakes out, I hope it's someone who's been part of the story and not some random connection from the days when The Hardy Boys were robbing the residents.

    Oscar would take the fall for his own father (Mr. Torres, the super), I would think. Maybe his dad already had a criminal record and even if Zoe's death was an accident, he couldn't risk losing his job or going to jail. Do we know for a fact that Oscar went to prison for 10 years because of Zoe's death or something else? I may need to re-watch because it seems a bit vague.

    Do the residents still not know about the Hardy Boys robberies? It seems like some people know about these "bad news" kids (Oliver's son) but others seem to be totally clueless (Charles, Oliver). You'd think that a series of break-ins, robberies, and a young resident falling to her death in the building would be major news, news that Charles and Oliver wouldn't miss regardless of what they may have been going through at the time. Maybe the Hardy Boys shenanigans are still largely a secret? Zoe's parents owned the entire 11th floor, too. There is no way her death wouldn't be a huge deal in the Arconia.

    I posted this in the E04 thread, but Mabel's (current, dilapidated) apartment is 12E. This is the apartment that she claims her aunt (Salma Ramirez) owns and that she is renovating for her. However, in Mabel's own flashback to meeting Tim Kono, Tim says that he knows her aunt: she gives out full-sized candy bars at Halloween and lives in 12A. On Charles's Possible Suspects whiteboard, the current occupant of 12A is Bunny Folger. The diamond ring ended up in her apartment instead of Tim Kono's. When Charles and Mabel broke into Bunny's apartment to retrieve the ring, at no point did Mabel mention that she was familiar with the place because her aunt used to live there.

    Maybe it's nothing. Maybe Aunt Salma sold 12A and bought 12E. The show makes a point of telling or showing us who is in which apartments, though. It seems like it's a clue to ...something. We actually don't know very much at all about Mabel Mora. What does she do for money? What has she been doing for the last 10 years? She claims to be renovating 12E but what actual evidence is there of that? She seems to be squatting there more than anything. Where is her aunt and/or the rest of her family? Mabel is an unreliable narrator, not sure that I trust anything that she's said or shown us.

    That photo in the first post says that Bunny Folger lives in Apartment 12A. That used to be Mabel's Aunt's apartment (in the Episode 2 flashback at the fountain, 10-year-old Tim Kono says that the Ramirez aunt lives in 12A). That is also where the package with the diamond ring ended up at first, instead of going to Tim.

    I am really enjoying this show, especially Martin Short and Steve Martin. Steve Martin was especially hilarious in the cat lover's apartment scene. Gomez leaves a lot to be desired. Is there something wrong with her jaw? She barely opens her mouth when she speaks and it's distracting.

    Since we don't have a speculation thread, I'll put mine under a spoiler tag:

    I think tie-dyed hoodie guy is Oscar. I think Mr. Suarez is the one who killed Zoe (it was probably an accident, after he went to break up the loud party and then confronted her over stealing from apartments), and Oscar went to prison for him. Zoe's killer would have to be someone that Oscar would feel the need to protect, otherwise why would he do that? Why wouldn't he let Tim tell the cops who really killed Zoe? Makes sense if it's his dad.

    Evelyn the Cat was last seen alive outside of Oliver's apartment the night of the fire alarm. Then she's apparently poisoned (much like his bulldog) before ending up in that freezer. I don't know, it's only Ep. 3 but Oliver is a little suspicious to me. What does he say in the very beginning? "First, the crime, then the characters, and then their secrets." The guy is broke and desperate for a comeback. I don't think he killed Tim Kono or Zoe, but I think he's a villain somehow.

    Who's this potential future villain? Those look like a man's hands and forearms.

    I enjoyed the movies and I hope we get more. I saw a blurb that the director wants to make a movie about one of the old Shadyside serial killers from the 50s but I would like to move forward in the story, not back.

    Widow Mary had the Devil's book in 1666, was she using it herself? There's no way that the rest of the Goode family didn't know about the pact.

    Sarah Fier being a victim of a crime (who wants to show you the truth) felt like an homage to The Ring's Samara.

    no clue what to put under spoiler tags...

    Re the rhyme: yeah, I totally think that Sarah Fier

    Spoiler

    was wrongfully executed and cursed the Goodes. Maybe the Goode ancestor(s) led the the persecution and Fier won't stop until the Goode descendants are dead?

    Who moved Fier's body and put the stone there? Ziggy bled on the bones, was killed and then revived, but did not turn into a serial killer. Why is Sam a foaming-at-the-mouth killer when she had the same experience?

    I preferred the second movie to the first, even though it was not scary whatsoever. In fact, I even shed a few tears at the end

    Spoiler

    (RIP Alice)

    . I can't wait for the third movie.

    I know it's not terribly important but

    Spoiler

    Gillian Jacobs and Sadie Sink do not look remotely alike. Where did all of Ziggy's mermaid hair go?

    S13.E09: The Salem B.... Trials

    in The Real Housewives Of New York City

    After skipping the last few episodes (I know I didn't miss a damn thing), I decided to watch this for the possibility of some interesting New England travel porn. I should've known better. Of course they sat around and argued.

    Leah telling Ramona that she's what's wrong with the country was a real low point for her, and that's really saying something. Eboni demanding to know if the others were "aligned with white supremacy"... we all know she's not abandoning her Bravo paycheck, so what would she even do about it if someone were? This person worked for that network and took paychecks from that billionaire. Give me a f*cking break, get off the cross. She and Leah have managed to ruin this show.

    I like Bershaun so far.

    Leah, Eboni and Sonja need to exit stage left next season IMO.

    in In Treatment

    Curious as to why they haven't touched on who the father of Brooke's son is. Don't both biological parents have to relinquish parental rights in an adoption? Was the father simply not told about the baby? It seems like it was a legal adoption, not some black market thing.
