It would make me so much happier if they'd at least TOKEN made reference to some of the expected issues...

Yeah, no kidding.

Also, how long was it supposed to be since Meg's death and the baby's birth? Was the baby supposed to be full-term, and not a NICU preemie? Do you know how hard it is to suspend disbelief when you're familiar enough with baby sizes and development to start wondering these things? Also, do you know how hard it is to pay attention to the story when LL is hot like fucking burning?

Though, of course, as I watched this whole thing while wrangling Lillian, I got the baby scenes in smellovision.

That's messing with my mind, too. It's especially bothersome to me on Lost. Guess there is a minimum age for the wee ones to get their SAG card.

I want to be the first to point out the TWOP and Lost shout-outs.

The "Lost" shout-outs I saw (Logan asking Kendall if she was "lost" and then the numbers at the end), but what was the TWOP shout-out?

VM looks like it's wandering through a snow storm. Damn Comcast

So this is a universal problem? I bet that means that the repair person coming today can't fix it.

Narrator, when Veronica got the fake phonecall from Duncan she's standing in front of a bulletin board and there's a flyer with TWoP on it.

Ah, nice touch.

i'm with Hil, for the additional reason that depending on him being willing to come onboard at that late date seems suspect to me, like poor planning. The whole thing plays better as a heist movie, IMO, so it would all have to be planned, like, a lot.

I gave up on baby-size a long time ago. As long as they're pre-lingual, I'm not going to fuss too much.

I looked this up once, a few years ago. California law is no babies in TV or movies until they're 15 days old. Some shows have tried to make birth scenes look more believable by casting preemies who are technically 15 days old but it's really still before their actual due date, but enough people were complaining about that (really not safe for babies that little to be around that many people) that most shows have stopped.

I think it had to be after the note. Sleazy PI doesn't have the chops to pull off that kind of charade. The only thing they could rely on him to be is, sleazy. So the note tells him there's 30 grand in it for him if he sells out his client, he jumps at the chance. Also if he was in it at the beginning, then all that posturing with VM was scripted which makes it pointless since nobody else was there.

The numbers on the fortune were exactly the ones from Lost? Damn.
