That was an excellent line - great in the ads and in context.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
So question, when Fargo missed "bucket-time", did he wet himself? Something along that line?
I thought it had something to do with bathing. Zoe mentioned people starting to smell and she was going around with a bucket of water and wash cloth.

I thought Jack said something like "before we have to start bathing them" just before the bucket line.

There was an odd use of a wide angle lens near the end when Jack enters the room where he's tied up Allison and Beverly. There was no reason for it and it took me out of the scene.
Was that where Allison says she wished that he'd handcuffed her and Bev to a bed, and you can't even see that he's thinking dirty thoughts? I only kinda got that when Allison tells him not to laugh, she's already embarrassed. Or maybe that's *my* dirty mind?
Also wanted to say how Henry's goodbye was nicely played, cutting over to Allison and Carter's conversation, making us think that Henry's just general background noise, and then WHAM! Well done.
*cries*

-t, I can't believe that the webisodes exposing the compelling story of celery in New Caprica aren't revving you up for Season 3.

I've only seen the first two webisodes, because video on my computer is herky-jerky at best. I do have access to a better computer, I should watch it on that.
In fact, I'll do that right now, since I'm thinking about it. The celery has me intrigued.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The celery was created by Man. It was created to make life easier on the Twelve Colonies. And then the day came when the celery decided to kill its masters. After a long and bloody struggle, an armistice was declared. The celery left for another world to call its own....

Now there's celery that looks like us?

Yep. Tastes like us too. Or maybe chicken.

almost every show, I've been dying to know and always forget to ask: what is UP with the siren on Carter's SUV? It's like it has asthma>
"hold on... I'm coming...just need to... catch my... breath...wheeze wheeze"
(and it never fails to make me laugh, same as the delivery of the "stun gun and weedwacker" line --even though I've seen or heard that commercial three times a day for the past week.)
