Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

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.

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

Maia's mother -- didn't the scientist inject her once against her will? And Maia had a vision of her getting really ugly, or something?

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

So finally SciFi is letting me watch what I asked it to tape (Obviously the channel hates me and I shall have to eat bugs while they try to tell me it's only an undocumented feature waving tentacles at me, but I digress. A lot.) and Eureka gave me a giggle at, "It's generic."

I feel the need to skim back to the show's airing and see what else is making people laugh. But I am only half way through and feel that it would be spoilish of me. The quandry of the TiFaux and reairs...

Why did the Carter and Dylan start to replay at the end of the show? I feel I missed something.

The "why's it look like me?" and "it's generic" were improvised because, sadly, it did look like me and, sadly, it is generic. Love acting with Joe.
Now I am slightly more amused. And I feel a little bad. Mostly just giggling though.

Clever lines, clever delivery and clever banter - I'm predictable.

The out of order showing of episodes bugs but it is a bug that I am used to it by now. I figure it isn't the show's fault. And knowing it was out of order before I even saw it helps as well. If I just reslot everything back to the way it should be, it fits.

Art Crawl!!!

Cass - is that what happened? Because -- weird. And I was so distracted on Tuesday, I can't remember the actual ending.

Well, Maia's mom did get really sick but she didn't go as far as Kevin.

I thought that Maia said she'd get ugly, not sick.

The getting ugly thing that Kevin did was part of getting sick: first sick, then ugly, then transformation.

I was hoping that Diana would develop an interesting power.

Also, I want to know what Maia saw for Isabelle.

I know. What I was wondering was that if Maia had other visions that didn't come true.

Oh, and this is what I came here to post: anyone else watching the Eureka webisode?

I just watched Part six: when it came up it supposedly had like 5 minutes of whatever on it, but it ended very shortly when Taggart appears to be turning into the beast -- is that where episode six is supposed to end?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Whatsername's sister sure was keeping them for herself.

Right, but she got her drugs from one of Jordan's homeless dealers. And while she's been presented as a character with repeatedly poor judgment, there was also a line around the block behind her.

I think the Isabelle-promeicin is pure enough that it takes fewer doses to develop powers -- it looked like everyone lined up on the street was getting three or four syringes taped together. Either Diana didn't get enough of the synthetic version, or they forgot that that was a plotline.

But that's as much as Jordan was giving to each homeless person. So where did the person who handed it to Diana's sister get so much?

I'm not so concerned about Diana getting powers. More wondering about the inevitablity of Maia's visions. Is she infallible, or can her visions be averted? Suddenly I'm not remembering any that didn't come true, save the "ugly" one, and I might be remembering that wrong.
