Yeah, I thought she was gorgeous from the get-go, and thought the whole point was that Not!Helo is too buried in work to notice the hot girl next door.

I am Victor in this. And I am P-C in thinking the whole lasagne (I know it wasn't lasagne, but I can't remember what it was) as "leftovers" was sort of sweet. Obvious, but whatever. She could just as easily say, "Here, I made this for you," though. Considerate act of a neighbor who knows you work crazy hours and probably don't cook much good food for yourself.

Also, I think there's more to neighbor woman. There's an angle there, aside from the obvious.

I don't think Jeff from Chuck was on this ep, though.

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

Manicotti.

Well, she's trying to be coy!

Yes, yes. Like I said, it's kind of endearing; it could border less on obviously not true, though, and still be just as sweet. She's kind of failing at coy. Coy is dumb, anyway. Just sayin'.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I reserve judgment on Millie other than she's got just gorgeous eyes. Until I see where they're going with her, I have no opinion.

Speaking of eyes, did I mention Brian Bloom? Because, Brian Bloom!

I mean, look at the amount of makeup on the religious people.

True dat. That was a lot of makeup. They must place a big MAC order through the general store.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Dumpy means overweight and unflatteringly dressed.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

There are clearly programmed triggers that are designed to produce a specific response in the Active.

Yeah okay, so I'm seeing that I'm getting pinged by something that's supposed to ping me as off. It really weirds me out.

I tend to think of dumpy as unflattering, baggy clothing and as unrelated to weight.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It really weirds me out.

Yeah, I agree that Topher's "for a little while!" is kind of chipper and creepy.

I was surprised that Boyd didn't do the "everything's going to be all right" when he came to get Ester!Echo

I mean, look at the amount of makeup on the religious people.

Also, Meara noticed when Boyd was carrying Echo out - she was wearing heels?!?!

I thought that it was supposed to allot for their missing time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Speaking of eyes, did I mention Brian Bloom? Because, Brian Bloom!

God, his eyes freak me out. What colour would you say they were?

Shame on Tim for not using it.

she was wearing heels?!?!

They were retro, if that's anything. Like these in silhouette.

Blue. Otherworldly, clear, light, bright blue. He's an alien.
