Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

But if it were someone on their first day on the job, I'd be more likely to log in, then let the co-worker do what they needed to do.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I was surprised that she handed over her password, but all hell was breaking loose so I can let that slide.

I'm sad that the pterodactyl is dead.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Maybe they'd sent it off on vacation that week? Or perhaps it flapped out when Ianto got out.

Yeah, yeah, death and destruction of humans doesn't bother me nearly so much in these stories.

In retrospect, since Lois was there to Do Computer Transfer Stuff with Miss Stearns, they could have started by giving Lois all the passwords, and intend to change all the passwords after she'd left. Lois should have been bonded with a high government clearance and all....

I am thinking on this too much, aren't I?

yes, and should have known not to do what she did. Poking in files beyond her clearance, asking a lot of questions, etc. will not move you along in government service.

Well yeah, but asking questions you shouldn't is how you end up working for Torchwood.

Ann, that's a ferret.

And there's room for a computer expert to replace Toshiko....
