As I said, legend, although most people who talked about her said she could get more done in a day than anyone they'd ever known. If only I'd inherited that.
The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!
I just paused on a frame of Birkoff's monitor which has a post it saying "Call your mom. This time I mean it."
So, is Birkoff canonically not separated from his family?
And why am I wondering about a gag?
Say what?
Was that an actual note to Birkoff to call his mother? He has a mother he's in contact with?
Alex is in contact with her mother. Ryan may or may not be in contact with his mother. I'm not sure anyone else has a mother.
I would have thought that all the relatives would think they were dead before they were recruited.
Yes, faking their deaths is part of the recruitment process and people are strictly forbidden from making contact with people from their old lives.
So then the note on Birkoff's screen is just a gag?
Probably. It's weird to me that there was a post-it on his screen at all. Birkhoff is anti-paper.
