Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Trust my rage

Wolfram, my reaction was the same as yours. I'm tired of being bored for 50 minutes and then something interesting happening in the last 5. PLus, I found the hatch interior waaaayyyy too unbelievable.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Much (almost all) of Michael's sympathetic qualities seem to come from being wronged by stone cold bitch. Without that factor he is pretty much an annoying screw up.

I found Michael to be so annoying and unwilling to take responsibility that I couldn't even watch the rest of the episode. Guh. His character is always self-righteous, always blames other people and pretty much always makes the wrong decision.

It reminds me of Buffy S7 when we had the same basic plot for Bring On the Night, Showtime, and Potential and pretty much nothing but speeches for three episodes. It's so much more annoying when you know the writers are capable of so much better.

If I had to be stranded on a raft with either Michael or Sawyer, it's Sawyer hands down. The dude takes a bullet for the team, and doesn't even chide Michael when he admits he probably shouldn't have brought Walt along. Compared to Michael right now, Sawyer is a champion big damn hero.

Let's not forget the life-saving CPR/mouth-to-mouth.

They've done a terrible job keeping Sawyer a badass this season.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

All 2 episodes of it?

Well technically one that he was in. Maybe he's only heroic when he knows the only witness is a whiny, selfish blame-gamer who'll never remember or appreciate it.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

No problem there.

Pulling a bullet out of your shoulder with your bare hands and no painkillers is pretty badass.

Especially on a half submerged raft at night. However, the salt water helps heal the wound.

Not if you bleed into the shark-infested waters...

(Oh wait, I don't have high realism standards for this show. Nevermind.)
