Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Deena, thank you lovely woman for the last couple of scenes. I knew that Important Things Happened, now I know what they were. ::sniff::

(And no teenager ever dyes her hair that color for the first time without even a single embarrassing red forehead splotch. Er, so I've heard...)
(I've heard the same thing.)

Not much talk of Eureka slashing. I wonder why not?
I was going to say fear of your pinky, but really it sort of blurs the line with RPS...

And watch Cass catch up...

If anyone starts RPFing Colin here, things will get ugly fast. It's a thing.

I have so less than no compunction about slashing his character(s).

Oh my.

I go away for one day and look what happens.

First, what's RPF?....nope just figured it out. Well, as ita is a friend if there's gonna be a story she's gotta be in it. And yes, ita, I know I'm in trouble now.

That ear ringing scene was so nerve wracking. It was SO loud and we had to do it again and again. It was like some horrible Pavlovian nightmare. I would have to make a huge effort to calm down before each take knowing I was about to get an aircannon in the ear. I'd love it if they put in the sound of ringing because that's what I deceided to play. That'd make me really happy.

But look at it. They put A MEGAPHONE on an AIR CANNON and blasted it. And then laughed and did it again.

I'm as adamantly opposed to the forced Jack and Allison thing as you guys are - which makes me nervous for one upcoming episode. It made me so mad but I didn't have a leg to stand on. BUT, please, know that next season Abby will be showing up and the whole thing will go on the back burned until it deserves to be there. I promise.

It's sort of cool because settling down was all she ever wanted so it really turns Jack on his head. I mean, why wouldn't you give it a shot. Wouldn't you have to? I like it anyway.

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

Who is Abby? Jack's Ex?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Yep. That storyline has potential. Me likee. Better than Jack & Allison, that's for sure.

Our wings are not tired.

Next season. See, I like the sound of that.

It was SO loud and we had to do it again and again.

On screen it came off very well. Sorry it was painful.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

It's sort of cool because settling down was all she ever wanted so it really turns Jack on his head.

Of course, he settled down in a place where a rain of mutant robot toads could happen any time.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

rain of mutant robot toads

Ten times fast. Dare you.

In fact, I pre-emptively vote for this as the next thread title.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

ita, I know I'm in trouble now.

When do you get back in town again?

'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"

!Officers! !Stark has created an army of mutant toad robots!

It's probably less wordy in Spanish.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I just caught up with Eureka! Boy, you people talk a lot. Even though it was mostly to geek out over magnetism.

I liked the episode. It was nice seeing Stark humanized a bit. I thought that the pretty young man who played Callister was wee bit stiff, then it all made sense because... robot! Heh. Poor Jo.

Jack/Allison was contrived, but they were charming enough in that scene with the fence that I went with it. Of course, the writers then had to be reeeeally obvious and make that boner joke. Oy vey.

I'm with ita re. NO to RPF (it totally cracks me up that Colin actually knows what that is), but shrugging my shoulders about fic-talk re. the characters on the show. I mean, we talk about fanfic on this thread from time to time, and I imagine there are quite a few Buffistas here who couldn't give too fig about fic. And at this point, with the amount of interaction we've had with him, I'd consider Colin a Buffista, not some celebrity actor who drops by the board and post-and-run.

I do agree with Matt that Jack reads squarely hetero to me on the show, but if I squint hard, I can sort of see how Jack/Stark might work.
