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.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

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.

The evil is this way?

Ah, nice touch.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Guess there is a minimum age for the wee ones to get their SAG card.

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.

There was a "Cupid" shout-out -- Wallace was at Trevor Hale High School in Chicago. Trevor Hale was the lead character's name in "Cupid" which was also set in Chicago.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I also wish it had been clearer when Vinnie had been brought on board, and how they even got Astrid involved in the first place.

I did love the "Mornin', Sam." "Mornin', Ralph" exchange, though.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

That was my favorite part, too. The overall episode seemed contrived and a bit muddled to me, though.
