Yikes. Thank you!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Dear Hannibal writers: Was this episode, like, a prompt fill for "make your loyal viewers say 'fucking EWWWW!'?" Because between cannibal sex and self-cannibalism (I must enjoy myself), you win, okay? You can stop now because you win. And I say this as someone who has been basically okay on the "fucking eww" front up to this point.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Debet, do you mean last weeks episode?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Probably. I just watched it on Hulu.

I was going to say, I was way confused.

Tonight's was new highs in "I can't believe they did that" and/or "I can't believe Hannibal did that."

Sorry. I never seem to watch anything in sync with the world anymore.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"Is he safe?"

"From me, or for you?"

Wow. That was no small exchange.

I want to see ground plans for Hannibal and Chilten's homes. They must be massive. They both seem to have wine storage the size of my living room. And if it weren't for the risk of ending up dead and/or eaten, Hannibal would be a awesome moving buddy.

Hannibal gets shit done, for sure.

I'm not loving the Miriam thing -- the whole thing is a little too implausible. If she can't tell the shadow man from her captivity was Hannibal, there's no reason she should think it was Chilton. Not that Hannibal staging that scene at Chilton's was any more plausible, but still.

Hanibal's flinch when Will came closer with the gun was amazing -- he's actually vulnerable. It's hard to remember sometimes.

Does Will know Alana slept with Hannibal? Or is *involved* with him?

Hannibal could have implanted memories of Chilton in her brain? I'm not convinced Chilton is dead and that what we saw last night wasn't just a story that was told to Hannibal so that he wouldn't think they still suspect him. If he is though, there goes my theory about not killing off people that are characters in the books.

It seemed clear to me that he had figured it out.

I got a little distracted toward the end. Thanks, sj.

Yeah, I kept thinking, "They can't kill Chilton, he has to torment Hannibal at a later point!"
