Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did they say the password was Sunnydale?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Dangit, I was distracted, only listening, and I missed shirtless Neal!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think you should rewatch, Dana.

Or I could do it for you.

That thing with the lie detector was just dumb--they could have just looked at the tracking anklet.

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

I heard Sunnydale too, Jesse.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

True. But then we wouldn't have learned that jabbing oneself with a thumbtack can somehow produce a false True reading, and who knows when we'll need to know that?

Password was definitely Sunnydale! Cool. Jeff Eastin says on Twitter, "Sunnydale password is a nod to Buffy."

I heart Diana more and more. Glad she's back. I also heart shirtless Neal, in an entirely different way. Matt Bomer is just too damned pretty to be real.

I'm pretty sure the Mythbusters have disproved that, which was the first thing I thought of when I saw Neal grab the thumbtack.

I was wondering how he was going to get it into his shoe, which was where I thought most people put it. His chosen method wasn't exactly subtle, and I'm surprised that Peter didn't cotton onto the precise method.

I mean, if I've heard of it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Hey, Tom, you probably met the guy who took that screen shot at our party last month!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I skipped the bit with the thumb tack. I have a thing about tiny pointy things. I still have the Profit scene stuck in my head. I don`t need to see that method too much.
 
But then I was getting to the end and I was worried I`d missed the shirtless bit and was going to have to rewatch (woes). But it was ok. I didn`t miss it.
