I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

That's what I thought all along. He worked for the campus escort service, so he had a lot of opportunity to pick women for himself and Mercer.

Plus, I could totally see Mercer ordering Moe to give him an alibi. Except, of course, it got frelled up due to the disaster that was caused in Mexico.

What is even happening?

Eh.

Because books.

Really, Cindy? Is that an "eh" to the episode as a whole?

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

I'm still curious what happened with the Dean at the Hotel (as I guess I should be) and then back to the admin office.

I realized afterward that we don't actually know what went down. He could have killed one or both of them, but I doubt that since they make great suspects.

i've seen several people mention that they think the Dean was dreaming the hotel encounter and that the egging woke him up.

Also, just to respond to Tep's "1 dimension" complaint, I really liked that despite the eggings, the feminists were shown doing something really positive by distributing the GHB detection things.

I really liked that. also liked the confrontation with Chip for distributing fake coasters.

Art Crawl!!!

Do those GHB detection things really exist?

Perhaps the Feminists will be more interesting next arc -- they've had somebody they thought was an ally proven to be an enemy and somebody they thought was an enemy proven to be an ally. We may get to know them better.

I don't know. Well no, it's not to the whole episode at all. I was extremely engaged, during. I thought pacing of the very ending could have been better, and I have a few itches about timeline related stuff. I was really into it, for all the reasons people listed above, while I was watching it. Today? My reaction is more meh. I'm trying to sort out why, in my head.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I thought Veronica realized that Mercer's show was on and taking callers literally moments after speaking to him, and thus his radio show wasn't necessarily an alibi-- but I am a little confused still.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Was it "the Feminists" who were handing out the detection coasters? I thought it was Parker, who wasn't throwing eggs, and has been allowed to be a little bit more dimensional.

I thought she was doing it as part of a booth set up by Lilith House.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Was it "the Feminists" who were handing out the detection coasters? I thought it was Parker, who wasn't throwing eggs, and has been allowed to be a little bit more dimensional.

The confusion is that there were a couple organizations that the feminists were involved with. Take Back the Night was handing out coasters, and Parker was involved with them, as was Nish & Co. Lillith House seems to be a different organization -- basically, excuse the term, a sorority -- that shares a lot of members, but Parker wasn't one of them.
