That was an intense episode.
And of course, now we know why Don's always looking at his lighter.
Lorne: My little prince. Oh…what did they do to you? Angel: Nina…tried to…eat me. Lorne: Oh, you're--medic! You're gonna make it Angel. Just don't stop fighting. Doctor! Is there a Gepetto in the house?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Holy cow.
Good catch, David. I love attention to detail like that.
The whole thing was kind of difficult to watch. But in a good way.

Yeah. Very intense and it's not even the season finale.

When Pete left the room, Cooper says to Don, "Keep an eye on that one. You never know where loyalty is born ." Strange turn of phrase to describer someone who just tried to do the opposite. Is this foreshadowing that Pete is going to become slavishly loyal when Don doesn't fire him? At least for a time?
I love the little character scenes in this episode, like the one with Joan and "Orson Welles" (memfault), and the one with the married glasses-guy and (memfault). (Sorry, I'm terrible with names.)

Yeah, that was a fabulous scene.
Really great acting this episode. Lots of stuff conveyed by very little. Small facial expressions, small changes in posture.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)
This show(and Don himself) have grown on me a lot.

Or, "...where loyalty is borne."
I can't believe Cooper is Robert Morse!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I can't believe Cooper is Robert Morse!
Of course he is! Because he is. that. awesome.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
question: do you think Pete will ever have a good relationship with Don? This is the second time where he acted like an asshole to Don. I'd be ready to fire his ass.

I can't see it. Pete just resents Don - he thinks that he is the one doing all the work. What could change that?
BTW, it's been killing me trying to recall where I saw the guy who played the AC salesman before and then he was on this week's CSINY. One of the credits was for an Adam Kaufman. . . who played PARKER on Buffy. Yes, I'm pretty sure that's who that was. (This week's CSINY also featured KD Aubert who played the NYC slayer in season 6.)
