What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Plus, I think Lamb was just being cruel locking them together.

I think Cliff said pretty much the same thing. Lamb was definitely just being a jackass.

He's really my prime suspect for the big manipulator here, although if he arranged for the bus to crash, then the target might not have been Veronica after all -- it might have been his daughter.

I pegged Gia as the target from the premiere, but I couldn't figure out the right motives.

There are an abundance of loose ends. I like that.

What I like about Rob's plotting is that, for the most part, he's deliberately placing loose ends in strategic places to be tied up at a later time.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

but his BBoC factor is that he's, effectively, a BBoC.

I come bearing vid recs:

Naty - Supermarket Sweep

It uses music from Requiem from a Dream, has Fincher-style editing, and portrays Duncan as a scary mofo.

Lady Disdain - Walk Through the Fire

Yes, that "Walk Through the Fire." It's awesome.

Lady Disdain - The Internet Is for Porn

Who knew that's what all the Neptune kids were up to?

Art Crawl!!!

Hmmm, why would Gia's dad want to kill her? Perhaps she has some sort of trust fund from her mother's family that would come to him if she died and HE is in big trouble with gambling debts.

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

There was a mild disagreement between Woody and Jackie's dad, although we didn't hear it. That's got to be significant. And we don't know a lot about Gia. Specifically, we don't know if she knows something she's not supposed to know, and is willing to use it.

Hey. New board.

Dude, that Walk Through the Fire video really was awesome.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I don't know that he was trying to kill her. My thought was that he had the bus sabotaged just to create any accident, because he wanted grist for his safer Neptune platform, and that he didn't plan on the brakes failing at the worst possible moment. There is a possible connection between him and Curley Moran. When Veronica found the photo of Moran with Aaron, there was also a photo of him with Jackie's dad (and the Porsche).

You're right, it isn't. My bad.

OTOH, I wonder if there's a signature on the bat in the same screencap.

Our wings are not tired.

Picky pick, why would the sheriff drive Logan home when he was released on bail? It was on his way? No cabs available? Yes, it gave Lamb an opportunity to be cruel, but I just noticed that.

Yes, I am watching the 11pm repeat because I watched it the first time from download and I wanted to see it with captioning because I remembered there was some line I couldn't understand and it bugged me. Don't have a clue where it was, but rewatching now.

One line I missed the first time around was Cliff calling Logan Chip and suggesting he listen to the Old Block. Hee.
