And let me add one crucial word: gleets.

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

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.

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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

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.

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.

I actually sort of liked Jane in this episode, to my surprise.

Who the fuck is the little general, and why did that guy want to kill him? That whole thing was weird. I swear, I don't know what's going on on this show half the time.

Alma's pregnant! Because that always happens.

Where the hell did Sarah Paulson's character come from, and when the fuck did she shack up with Adams? I thought she was supposed to be leaving for Chicago. Was she cavorting with Adams the whole time she was with Alma?

What is the deal with Wolcott? WHAT IS THE FUCKING DEAL?

Fuckin' Yankton.

I will answer no questions, but do request, for the sake of my delicate sensibilities, that we call the NG by his initials or some such nickname, being cognizant of the different times in which we live than where the show is set. I believe "little general" is one we settled on at one board.

No problem. I'm finding it weird to hear the word being tossed around so freely myself.

By answering no questions, are you implying I'm not actually supposed to know what's going on? Is this like Neon Genesis Evangelion ?
