I wonder if they'll do more with the women being shunted to the side as the men come home from war.
I lived in an all-woman boarding house for a few months while on a business trip. Quite a bit less strait-laced and elegant.
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?

I think that Mrs. Jarvis is a mother or a sister. Or in a Jossian twist, a man.
But, seriously, I can't see Howard Stark's butler being married, or going to bed at 9 every night. Hell, Stark's probably just getting dressed to go out at 9.

I had a really bad therapy session yesterday, I was in a crappy mood, and I didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted.
Haley was great, of course, but I found the plot way too confusing. Who are the bad guys? Who's on what side? What do the bad guys want? Do they want to sell Stark's tech, or do they want to use it? Are the people selling Stark's tech different from the people who want to use it? If Carter's mission is to clear Stark's name, then why does she keep doing things that further implicate him?
And Ray Wise is the big bad, right? Because Ray Wise.

And Ray Wise is the big bad, right? Because Ray Wise.
So true.
I'm assuming that the bad guys are some iteration of Hydra. Because.
I saw the name James D'Arcy in the credits and then took forever to recognize him. Ditto Chad Michael Murray. What is up with people getting older?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I was pretty happy to see James Frain, and sad he isn't sticking around longer.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I get a bit of a Wesley vibe off of Jarvis, which I quite like.

I assume Wise is playing a 40s version of Roxxon president Hugh Jones. Villainous masterminding seemslikely.

Well, it's not Carter's fault Howard's license plate just turned up in the Roxxon debris.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Something funny is up with that waitress.
For one thing, she's a waitress at an automat! They aren't supposed to have waitresses, are they? I thought that was the point.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
What was Leet drawing before he croaked? Something that looked like a heart with a tongue sticking out, which did not look like a Hydra symbol. Hmm.
I'm also wondering if any of the friendlies would turn out to be Hydra, in order to provide some thematic tie-ins with CA:TWS and Agents of SHIELD. Sousa or Angie from Automat, perhaps.
