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

TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.
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 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.
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 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.
Fortunately the boss has come to the conclusion that Howard was framed separately from anything Peggy did, or else all that would collapse.
So next week we're re-enacting the first Terminator movie?
Looks like.
I chuckled at the Russian psychiatrist's ability to hypnotize people into suicidal thralls in a single short conversation. So in addition to vacuum implosion perfume bottles and clairvoyant typewriters we're getting Comic Book Science: Soft Sciences Edition.
