Yeah, that'd be too easy to kill her now. I figured Creel would pick up the obelisk by Agent Xena's hand.
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

I did, too! I didn't count on his self-galvanizing hand.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm interested to find out if he can turn into obelisk-stuff faster than it kills him. Or whatever it does that killing is maybe a side-effect of. Gotta be tempting for someone who enjoys having new materials to become.

'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"
I think a car hitting an asphalt lump would still flip but seriously deform the lump. (Asphalt is not all that stiff and unyielding, hence the number of potholes, broken off bits and whatnot.) Still, you work with the materials at hand, so to speak.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I'm willing to hand-wave that as "this makes for a cool visual." I figure he easily could have been carrying a tire iron or whatever and absorbed that for the same effect.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I just thought it was concrete.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Teppy, I'm loving your phrasing on these comments.

Huh.
So it's looking like Fitz realizes, on some level, the Simmons isn't actually there (though I was amused that his hallucination felt the need to argue for her existence to people who couldn't hear her.)
Also, hey, Mack actually got to participate in the episode. Also, good on him for bonding with Fitz.
Still lacking the funny (there were a couple attempts at jokes, but they fell really flat.)
I really hope the preview for next week was intentionally misleading.

The preview for next week was the most interesting part of this week's episode. I don't know, it's just kind of...grim and depressing.
