[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

From a narrative standpoint, I thought that the focus on Rebecca was a good idea, since she's as new to Web and the others as we are.

So we now know that Paul (as in St. Paul) is conscience guy. Alvarez and now Rebecca are the 'get inside the bad guy's head' people. It'll be interesting to see what Mel and Danny's deals are.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like Rebecca, but I don't buy that she's tough -- not yet, anyway. When she was holding that gun, she looked like she didn't know how to use it, and she's so soft-spoken and fragile-looking.

That seems right. She's never been in the field before, right?

"Don' be e-scared"

The nice thing about a rookie lead (meaning rookie agent), she gets to have special talent, be the star, and fuck up ALL THE TIME. 'cause, she would, you know?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

We're getting hammered with thunderstorms right now. That's probably why my reception was so bad.

Does anyone know if TWOP is recapping this?

And Tim, good show and when does the DVD come out?

And especially after she came in all Ms. Magic Profiler Work All Night girl. She still doesn't necessarily know what she's doing.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Don't know about Mel, but Danny appears to be the SWAT guy. He was the one Web had coordinating with the weapons people.

"Don' be e-scared"

Yes, her placid blank thing was a choice. My choice. About 3/4 of this pilot was re-shot. Maybe we'll be able to include the original hour on the DVD (and I'm NOT talking about the 21 Jump Street thing, though I think that should go on the DVD, too), things were very bright, she was cheerful and perky. We backed the hell up. I like that she's all "I'd like to see the body" then almost ralphs on it.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Not to mention a rookie agent who (as I understood it) should in no way be an agent at all.

At this point, I wonder that Paul would want to be on the same team after she pointed her weapon at him. That's a serious no no.
