Art Crawl!!!

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 remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

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.

Thrive to spite them

I didn't watch I was waiting to see the Buffista reaction. I don't know how the waitresses were portrayed in the show but Automats did have women working in uniform who put the food in the sections and maybe cleared tables. Of course my Automat knowledge is limited to what I've seen in movies like A Touch if Mink.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Something that looked like a heart with a tongue sticking out, which did not look like a Hydra symbol. Hmm.

I am calling them the Squiggly Butts.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

The automat and the diner were two different venues, I believe.
