I KNOW!
But the gun-in-truck-smiling-at-Gwen moment later was a clappy hands moment for me.
Angel: Is that what you think you are--a hero? Spike: Saved the world didn't I? Angel: Once. Talk to me after you've done it a couple more times.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
The only thing that took me out of the show when I watched it was Pullman's situation. I don't give a shit what the arguments were, they are not going to let out a pedophile murderer from prison. Further, wasn't it in Florida where they messed up and didn't execute people correctly and had to re-attempt? We have precedent for that here.
I would have preferred there be a different backstory for that prisoner.
Otherwise, I liked the rhythm okay. We will see if Jack has to sacrifice another relative though...

Amen.
I may have to skip this series.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I hope that when the thing that's affecting Earth goes away, those with injuries will survive if their bodies have healed enough.
I also hope people with large quantities of poison in their veins will immediately succumb.
I was hoping Bill Pullman was playing a better role, maybe former president or something.

Well, the role is fine, I guess, maybe just not that character.
Long way form the stupidest man on earth in Ruthless People.
Or Lone Starr...

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I think this will likely be the case. I do think FBI guy is not going to survive.

Yeah, that really bothered me as well. I also cannot imagine that the government would capitulate to his threats to sue (little concept called executive privilege, where the official is indemnified from personal liability for rightfully executed functions of office).

Not only that: if we have 4 months to survive on this planet, this asshole's lawsuit is probably number 1 billion on the list of problems.

I was somewhat bewildered by all the assassination attempts and gun-pointing. But, okay, given that it's still going to hurt, waving a gun around is an effective threat.
I had more difficulty with them grinning smugly over the flaming remnants of a helicopter that presumably held bits of several never-dying people.

Well, those people were trying to kill them, so I can see why they wouldn't have been upset.
