Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Still not sure why they had to slit her first to do an autopsy. Shouldn't they check out the huge stick in her head first?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Autopsies generally check everything, right? Even if there is an "obvious" cause of death.

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

Ha, yeah. I can't believe they cut her open before removing the stick.

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

It does seem odd to start cutting into the torso with the stick still in there, though.

I love Claire. I didn't realise how much until yesterday. But she's all determined and getting the hang of life and brave and stuff. And such a very lovely smile.

Yeah, she's had a really nice character arc. Unlike Mohinder.

Mohinder needs a good slapping. I totally didn't buy his rejection of Peter, so I don't care as much about his (obviously impending) decision to get back in the game.

However he needs to factslap his skeptic friend by quoting his words back at him verbatim. Friend's words to Mohinder's dad, I mean.

Is Suresh a popular last name? I've known more than a few guys with it as a first name, but never seen it as last.

Yeah, I summarized his character arc for fun, and...it's ridiculous.

Yeah, my uncle is named Suresh. I've never seen it as a last name, though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Mohinder bores me to tears. I can't tell what his role in the show is supposed to be -- the heroes don't seem to need him as a guide, so I'm not sure why I should care whether or not he believes they exist.

Well, he's finally important now that he has The List, which means he can find the other Heroes and help bring them together so New York doesn't explode.

What is even happening?

Mohinder is pretty enough for me, and has a lovely enough speaking voice that I'm content to let him be exposition man and window dressing for the time being.

I guess it depends on how an autopsy works. Because what I'm saying is that when the lady makes the incision down her chest, it should heal, unless, like you said, she pulls the skin apart immediately.

Let's pretend the stake that was in the back of her neck was breaching her central nervous system and so the brain couldn't communicate with the rest of her body, to revive and heal her.
