Because books.

Yeah, I have to say I don't especially love Veronica being under suspicion yet again. Would've been much better if it had been Duncan who was found with the pillow, for instance. We'll see. I'm not getting how they're going to reconcile the two endings next week, at all.

Art Crawl!!!

They are promising a character's death in the promo. . .

I would also prefer that Veronica break up with Duncan because they are incompatible rather than because she thinks that he's the father of Meg's baby. Meanwhile, we need to know who this Chris person is. There is no real reason to think that it's Chris for Christopher rather than Christine, is there?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

sumi, I wonder if that's Meg to reconcile the two...

I had this long-standing gripe with Buffy. Well not so much a gripe. I wanted a nice, normal breakup with no one dying or leaving town. Not that there are werewolves in Neptune, but, it is one of those things you rarely see on tv (How I Met Your Mother is actually one of the places I can point to and say "they kinda did that," with whatshername from the pilot who's now a regular.)

eta: Anybody got a link to the voting. I didn't when I watched it, but I want to now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

a nice, normal breakup with no one dying or leaving town. Not that there are werewolves in Neptune, but, it is one of those things you rarely see on tv

The flip side to that is the revolving door bedrooms which you also see on shows, and ups the soapy factor. It does happen -- Friends and BH 90210 are the first to come to mind, but it's early.

Ah! Thanks! See, that's a page that i couldn't find last night. I ended up just searching the aol videos.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I agree with the gripe about the alternate ending. I don't like the fact that VM might be under suspicion. However, I can explain why the mother waited so long. I'm thinking that the parents actually expected her to die and when she didn't (and she might be coming back to consciousness), then the mother decided to act.

Trust my rage

Does the alternate ending stuff need to be whitefonted? If it's canon, then it's as current as the rest of the ep, right? I mean, it's not really a spoiler, is it? White font always confuses me.

Anyway, I have a hard time believing that nice normal acting Meg secretly comes from a psycho religious family that would lock up their littlest daughter in a closet and make her write all that weird stuff and kill their oldest daughter because she is pregnant. It just seems so weird. However, I have so much faith in RT from last season that I'm just pointing out how unbelievable it seems. I still have faith he can bring it all together.

Also, loved AH and CC together. And I loved the fight in the bathroom

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

This was a very good episode. I loved the scene with CC and AH.

What was the principal doing when he was changing the name plate on his desk? I didn't follow that.

RE the alternate ending Wouldn't the nurse call a doctor or check on the patient first and then worry about security?

Trust my rage

sj, i think it was showing us that he had ascended to the principal position now.
