Surprised that in the few comparisons of the masked & robed freemasons, no one compared it to Eyes Wide Shut. I can't think of anything more similar. (Also, I happen to like that movie, so save it.)
Lady O' Spain did.
ETA: Inevitable x-post of course.

I thought of that too, actually, but forgot to mention it. (No, seriously! I did! The whole "secret society" vibe and the masks...) (And I don't not like it, I just don't really get it, I guess. But I won't prosecute you for it, cause people whose opinions I respect like it a lot too.)
What, does Angel know NOTHING about betting and odds and ARGH!
No, that's why Gunn always wanted him to go to Vegas, to learn.
Crazy post number!
I skipped the watch and post. Sorry.
When they were all raising their hands and planning their blaze of glory exit I kept hearing Buffy's "the hardest thing in this world is to live in it" in my haid.
Drogyn looked pretty miserable. Maybe Angel figured he was doing him a favor, regardless.
But yeah, I'm gonna be pissed if they don't pick that up at all. Which they probably won't have time to.
I'm also rather disturbed about the killing of Drogyn. First, do we know that was actually him? I rewound and still couldn't recognize him.
Consuela is me. That was so not Frogyn (he will forever more be this to me because it's too funny, also hearing that in my head as a combination of Frodo* and Drogyn) - the guy Angel killed was half-bald and very weird-looking. It didn't even occur to me that it might have been supposed to be Frogyn until I read the W&P here.
I like this episode a lot more in retrospect than when I finished watching. I kind of had the (Plei? someone's) reaction of "Oh, so my sense of something being horribly wrong and asspully was SUPPOSED to be like that" and finding it hard to enjoy the last 10 minutes of goodness in light of the prior 30 minutes of irritation.
Oh, and I like Nina fine, but she's nothing to write home about. Or waste scenes on sending her out of the country.
* - Which reminds me, "Aragorn" - hee!

As opposed to the look that says "I have a hessian sack on my head and I'm being beaten with sticks, AIFG!"
That's really more Wesley's shtick.
I'd have to go back for a rewatch tonight, but not long after the Aragorn crack, wasn't there a Percy crack too?

Which reminds me, Tommyrot may I tag the below:
I'm in a secret cabal right now AIFG!
Since JohnSweden already took Illyria's commentary on Crash Bandicoot (which, BTW - ROTFLMAO).
Which reminds me, Tommyrot may I tag the below:
Of course!
I had no one tag me for an aeon, and now I've had two people tag me in two days... go team me!
