(Nope, Zoe. It's my favorite part, too.)
Oh, my god, it's... that episode from Buffy! Quick, what's the title??
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Ding! That looks like scads of fun, that does.
I enjoyed this ep. Except for the Jo thing they did there. Didn't love that.

You have to wonder how aware the writers are of certain tropes. I don't think they paint themselves into corners purposely, but they sure seem to stumble over their rollers a lot.

No, Jo, don't do it! Kick him to the curb! No, no no--
*slaps Jo and writing staff*
I was kinda enjoying the ep. The Jo stuff threw me, as did the resolution with the church. But that's personal issues. Guess everyone got the fear of god put in them despite the actual causes for the weird happenings. So false. Ick.
I really was frightened though, that Henry would step through. Joe Morton just rocks.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Did people catch Zoe's, "Bored now" when she was talking to Jo? I thought it was a coincidence, but after the Hellmouth reference, I'm not so sure.
I liked it, and I like the multi-layers of Jo, that she can be strong and still insecure, although she should have called the guy out for being an ass too.

Heh, thought the EXACT same thing about the preview. I'm guessing this might be the episode CFerg referred to earlier - Maneater. And double-heh on that.

Actually, probably alien, but that may be a tomato/tomahto distinction. And I don't think Stark is right - the cure didn't happen until the thing was shut down.

Yeah, sj, I don't mind that she has insecurities - who doesn't? I didn't like the way it played out here, though. Maybe I'm projecting again, but I was just so turned off by his boorish behavior that I couldn't believe Jo's reaction wasn't "T'chyah. See ya' later, dude." But rather to go into "He's so smart/I'm so dumb." Just... blech.
Loved that Jack was completely comfortable leaving Zoe in Stark's care. "He's pretty OK at what he does." (Paraphrase). Loved that.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
And I don't think Stark is right - the cure didn't happen until the thing was shut down.
Stark is a believer, both in the artifact and in Kevin.
