when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

I liked that, though him having a crush on Peggy made my eyes roll.

Count me in on wanting more all episodes with the Howling Commandos!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I didn't actually get a crush vibe from Thompson, regardless of what Dooley said.

brillig

I think Dooley couldn't comprehend that Thompson would have respect for Peggy without there being a crush involved.

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

Yeah, I don't think he actually has a crush on her.

I don't think Dooley thinks Thompson has a crush on her, either; I think it's the kind of shit talking that people do in an office/army/whatnot.

I like Dooley for some reason. Much more now than I did many episodes ago. I think because he does seem to be searching for the actual truth with regards to that weird battle slaughter thing.

I'll agree with Steph. Very much the kind of talk you find amongst the troops.

I'm not thrilled with Thompson at all. I could care less about his PTSD and his mainpain. Seriously don't care. It's not PTSD, it's shame. He claims he didn't want that medal, that he didn't deserve it, but he's done nothing to disabuse anyone about that. I don't really care that he's afraid of repercussions; he's had more than enough time to try to make things right and he's blown them off, taking advantage of his status. Confessing to Peggy doesn't absolve him. At the end of the episode, he still wasn't manning up.

It's not PTSD, it's shame.

It can't be both?

I like Dooley for some reason. Much more now than I did many episodes ago.

I do, too.

I think because he does seem to be searching for the actual truth with regards to that weird battle slaughter thing.

And this is why. He seems to finally be getting that something seriously shady is up, and wants to figure it out, rather than just blame it on Howard Stark and get accolades for that.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I normally hate Chad Michael Murray, and think he looks like his face is dirty all the time, but I do not mind him in this. He at least looks fairly clean.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I'm wondering if there will be a weird inversion of allies for Peggy in the weeks ahead, with Thompson having her back and Sousa plotting to take her down.

Sousa will not underestimate her, that's for sure.
