I find Alma kind of dull. Except when she's plotting to make Farnum sad, which is awesome. But then I don't like her when she's bitching out Sarah Paulson for no good reason.

I continue to be utterly perplexed by Trixie. What the hell is her deal? She gets offended that Saul doesn't want to treat her like a whore? The hell? And she...doesn't like Bullock because Bullock doesn't like Al, and she likes Al for some inexplicable reason even though she's already shown she's willing to disobey him?

Garret Dillahunt returns! And is masked by lots of facial hair! And...I don't really understand his character. Who's George Hearst?

Farnum is such a weasel. He tries to scam the guy within an hour of meeting him? Jesus. Also, I forgot, do we know what's in Hickock's letter? It's just a letter to his wife or something, right?

Joanie's pretty great.

Who's George Hearst?

The grandfather (or great-grandfather - I memfault which) of William Randolph Hearst.

The hell? And she...doesn't like Bullock because Bullock doesn't like Al, and she likes Al for some inexplicable reason even though she's already shown she's willing to disobey him?

She doesn't want the life she has with Al, or like the way he treats her, but she likes Al himself and you can't get one without the other. Poor Trixie.

And let me add one crucial word: gleets.

Aah, that's an interesting distinction, but I can actually see it. Thanks.

And let me add one crucial word: gleets.

I have no idea what this means except it's in the title for the next episode.

Soon you will be in the position of never forgetting that word.

I just rewatched that episode. One of my favorite shots of the series is in it: the Doctor, Trixie and Dan, all collapsed on the bed around Al after the gleet passes.

Mine, too. One of my favorite shots on any tv show, period, even.

Soon you will be in the position of never forgetting that word

And possibly wishing that you could.

That was a nice shot, Scrappy.

Gleets! Ew! Did Ian McShane do something bad to be saddled with that?

Alma vs. Farnum is very amusing.

Stephen Tobolowsky! Covered in facial hair! And, aaaah, getting a blowjob!

So, wait: is Farnum's rumor true, then? It seemed like they were discussing exactly what everyone was afraid of.

Who the fuck is Crop Ears, what did he want with Al, and why did Dan kill him? That whole thing was weird.

I don't know how Wolcott is supposed to make Madame rich.
