"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

(Though she doesn't see the HoYay. Not in BTVS, not in Angel, not in Lost.)

On Lost it's not that definite, we're mostly leaping to conclusions when presented with ambiguous situations. But Angel... have you ever showed her an episode of Queer as Folk to find out if she just sees 45 minutes of blank screen?

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Like, Michael snapping at someone who calls Walt "different", then later Brian saying he's "different" and then we know why.

There was a cool moment when I was trying to backtrack what exactly Michael was reaction to: Locke had made 2 statements preceding his "What did you say?" One was something about not having the time to talk to him, or really get to know him (Walt) and then, he said, "he's different." I liked the ambiguity of not knowing which statement caused Michael's reaction.

Also, I think Evangeline Lilly is loosening up a little bit. She's much more natural in the smaller quieter moments. It makes for some nice, er, moments (to overuse the word, if I may). Or the character has visibly relaxed since getting that toy airplane back. I was also admiring her caboose during that scene with Charlie in the caves.

Baby!Walt almost made me cry, that's how beautiful he was.

"Bryan said you caould have Vincent." HA! That was awesome. Michael was so smooth. Also, his realization of how lost Walt must be if he wasn't with either Michael or Locke was heartbreaking. He really had gotten himself up in a righteous anger, assuming that WAlt was with Locke. Yell at Locke, yell at WAlt, march back to camp. When he discovered Walt wasn't there, it was like all the air had been let out of him.

Why was he so against Walt hanging out with Locke, anyway? Because Locke was a little creepy at first, then it became an issue of not backing down when Walt continued to hang out with him?

Excellent episode. So annoyed that we have reruns for the next 3(?) weeks. GAH!

If Vincent turns up with an injury on his face, I will dance.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

But Angel...

I know! She's seen Angel and Lindsey in the same scene, damn it, and she doesn't see the HoYay.

have you ever showed her an episode of Queer as Folk to find out if she just sees 45 minutes of blank screen?

Heh. Not a bad idea....

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I think Locke was upset that Michael left the knife in the bear, and now the bear has run off with it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oy.

That was a good episode.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

She's seen Angel and Lindsey in the same scene, damn it, and she doesn't see the HoYay.

What is she, blind?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Does Walt know that he does stuff?

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

What I love about Walt's "specialness" is that the bird, polar bear, etc. are the sorts of things that could be merely coincidental. There's the sort of room for doubt that makes things creepier than if we actually saw Walt summon an army of penguins out of thin air.
