S03.E08: Sly and the Family Stone

[thewhiteowl]

In Ireland,  Walter discovers a natural disaster at a lake that could threaten an entire village.

I did LOL at Cabe in the swan boat.

And I did enjoy Paige's line to Sly: "All you had to do was lie and be emotionally manipulative. You'll make a great politician."

I could buy a Walter-Tim bromance if Paige was with bachelor #3.

Not the place for politics.

Only part of the episode I liked was Toby and Happy. Tim is bugging the crap out of me, he can go now. Tired of him and Walter always in a pissing contest over Paige.

Did some posts disappear from this thread? I was sure I already posted that I could see a Walter-Tim bromance if Paige found a bachelor #3.

ETA: The earlier post has reappeared.

I loved how Sly was keeping in touch with Walter's family, even playing Words with Friends with the grumpy (uncle? I forgot what the relation was)! That was so cute!

Approaching this show like it takes place in the same universe a superhero movie might take place makes this show easier to stomach.

Otherwise, there would be questions like "Why didn't the immediate burst of CO2 kill Cabe, Tim, and Walter?"

Didn't Walter say in season one that Gabe taught him how to fight?

I thought so.  I'm not against forcing Walter and Tim to work together so they can learn to get along better, but this story line was ridiculous (yeah, I know....this is Scorpion we're talking about....)

I love Sylvester. That stone from the lake lake shore parents yard  the driveway outside Scorpion made the episode for me.

It also made the title of the episode. Does anyone know who chooses/creates the titles?

Sylvester is always made of win for me; I was surprised (but LOVED) that he kept in touch with Megan's family.  Wow, Toby and Happy were so enjoyable apart from the main group (don't punch though, Happy).  I pay no attention to the "science" it's all ridiculous anyway.   It's a change for me to watch something with a guaranteed happy ending so I can go with the flow here - plus the cast works, though Tim is kind of superfluous.

It would have been nice if they shot the episode in Ireland or someplace that looked like Ireland.   The scenery looked like the back lot of the studio where they filmed Andy Griffith.  

Other than that.   I liked the episode. 

[Artsda]

I prefer Walter/Tim than Walter/Paige. 

I laughed out loud of Sylvester and the stone.

This is the only way to do it, I think. Just imagine that Scorpion is populated by superpowered aliens, and it all works. They can bend time, in fact all the physical laws of planet Earth are altered in their alien forcefield.

They aren't superpowered, time just freezes when traveling (Except when it needs to for plot purposes).

Scorpion just needs a private jet named The Tardis.

I think Zoo (CBS's summer version of Scorpion) already has something similar.
