Particularly right after the door gets slammed in Carter's face.

You mean where her boobs bob straight towards the camera for an inordinately long period of time?

Haha... I was actually referring to Carter's antics through the glass, but I certainly can't say that the section you're referring to was hard on the eyes. :)

Oh, forgot to mention in my comments that, yes, this is one of my favorite episodes so far. I'm glad you let the characters develop a bit before trying out a "Naked Time" episode (would that TNG had waited at least as long before trying it out).

IIRC, Henry's in civvies in the previews, so it certainly looks like he might be on his way out of town, or at the very least, not doing any of his 157 jobs.

Noooooooooo! Hennnnnnnnrrrry!

What I love best about Purple Haze: Carter figured it out by his lonesome. Very good episode. Love the roasted chestnuts line as well as Carter at the door. My favorite was "Yeah, it's purple. Gotta go." (Colin's great delivery). I liked the North by Northwest homage better than the Apocolypse Now nod.

Next week looks good.

I need to rewatch to be sure why precisely, but I really liked Colin's delivery when he goes to Allison's house and hasn't quite worked out how far gone she is. Nicely human.

Allround kudos to the actors in this ep. Fargo was more like himself than ever, so no biggie there. But Stark put a nicely vulnerable face on his obsession, Allison was sexy for the first time ever, Jo's glee was contagious, Zoe's panic was well-delivered, and Henry...oh, poor Henry. I'm glad someone learnt something from this. Sorry it had to be him, like this. Joe did a really good job with the sad exasperation.

Though I did think the chef's 'transformation' made little sense. He really wants to beat up his customers and serve them shitty food?

I really liked it too, and I really liked the "I'm going to regret this whether I do the right thing or the wrong thing" vibe I was getting off of him once he did realize.

The Chef thing doesn't make sense because he always just serves his customers what he wants to anyway, right?

Does anyone actually find Stark attractive?

You betcha.

Got the Apocalypse Now reference.

Not to mention the North by Northwest reference...

Loved the opening.

What I love best about Purple Haze: Carter figured it out by his lonesome.

Yeah, that was great. I especially liked it because he figured it out on the second try, not the first. And, well, because the idea of chopping down a cell tower with a chain saw just made me laugh and laugh.

Great episode! Allison was fantastic. Very sexy and so over it all. Excellent. And then touching at the end with Stark. Jo! So much fun. Well, what everyone said about everyone I guess, so no need to rehash. Except... aw, Henry. (I'd gush more about Colin, the line delivery champ, but I don't want to embarrass. Myself.)

Also - I love, love, loved Beverly's dress.

As much as I want the character to stay around, I like the fact that Henry isn't just the cheerful super-competent JoaT he's been pretending to be, and that he has some deep-seeded resentment over being constantly relied on and, mostly, taken for granted.

I was hoping we'd have seen that come out a little more in the episode with his ex-by-unwilling-means, but it's still nice that it came out at some point.
