sj, i think it was showing us that he had ascended to the principal position now.
Oh, I thought he was always the principal. I don't follow this show as closely as I should. I enjoy watching it, but I don't have appointment tv love for it.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Oops. Wrong thread.
Well, might as well edit to add some content.
Stephanie, I'm having some issue with the 180 degree turnaround in Meg's characterization this season as well. (and to think, for most of the part, she was comatose!) It sort of fits the noir axiom of Everyone Has A Thing To Hide/Lying Through Their Teeth, but still.
I don't usually notice the fight stuff on this show, unlike Buffy, but I thought both the scene at River Stix last week (when Ed Jerse hauled Veronica up and slammed her down on the pool table) and the fight between Weevil and Logan in this episode were terrifically done. Nice, dynamic camera work, plus some real heat and menace behind the violence.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I've read that the alternative ending has no bearing on the plot lines. It was just a publicity stunt. Between this and the Someone! Will! Die! (oh, that old trick...)promo, I'm getting teed off at UPN.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Then...why are we voting? Cuz it's fun? Ok. Sure. I...stupid network.

'Tis a truth universally acknowledged that the UPN promo department is run by a pack of monkeys on crack.
My guess is that the death is going to be a relatively minor character. My kitten's on Meg, since the alterna-ending showed her flatlining anyway.
ETA: Er, right. I guess we're WFing the alterna ending still? Do we need to?

All is well that ends in pizza.
So Col. Mustard and his candlestick can go pack, eh?

there is something to be said for the lyric and imperial attitude / believe that everything is for you until you discover that you are for it
In the alternate ending, didn't Meg's mother say "We'll see you soon" or something like that before leaving? I took that to mean that she was tying up the loose end before going home to do the whole cult-murder-suicide thing with the rest of the family.
Do I need to be white-fonting this? (eta, looks like not)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
OK, we need a bullshit concensus in-thread re. spoiler-fonting the alternative ending. I say we don't, because it's a one-time ratings gimmick and in-thread WF-ing annoys me, but I am not wedded to my position or anything.
