"There is no God! Right, Mama?"

"True."


Miss Trieu is probably related to the baby of the pregnant lady the comedian shot that somehow survived imo if she's not a direct clone. That would make her Silk Spectre II's half sister.

It took ages for the show to confirm that the guy who is almost certainly ozymandias is ozymandias and I don't really think the ambiguity added anything. It just feels like its just there to incite speculation. I'm enjoying lots of the show but this sorta stuff has left me not really invested in what's going on.

Yes...it was certainly a ~TOTAL MYSTERY~ of who Jeremy Irons' character was supposed to be.

Seriously makes me rethink the “well, the movie had to change the ending because the squid one would terrible in a film” stuff.

E:yep, it was him. He’s basically my favorite character on the show and this background stuff really adds a lot to his character.

Suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

I’m really interested to see how his character develops the rest of the series. A human lie detector finding out that much of his life is a lie strikes me as someone who is not gonna handle that well.

Yeah, it seemed like the message was "SAVE ME DA-" with the ending getting cut off, so it's entirely likely that he was sending it to Dan.

Anyway, do we know why the Kavalry seemed like they were about to kill Wade? Or did I horribly misread that ending?

I just spent 10$ to tell you the Jupiter facing side of Europa would experience enough radiation to kill you easily in a day.

They’re cleaning up loose ends. I’m hoping he’s enough of a paranoid fucker that he manages to get away, killing him off before the stuff from this episode gets to sink in would be a doozy.

I don’t understand how anyone ever doubted he was ozymandias. Like, it was announced that actor was cast as Veidt, he was acting like Veidt, and just because he hadn’t put on his silly costume people were speculating it wasn’t him??

I think that “ambiguity” was there because people wanted some Lostish mystery to complain about, it seemed pretty obvious who th character was.

For what it's worth, neither was Jeremy Iron's casting announced as him playing Veidt, and he spent multiple episodes being credited as Lord Of The Manor.

So the original argument about the pointless withholding of information remains true, made all the more egregious for it being entirely obvious who he was playing.

That was a good episode. Veidt was sent somewhere else, and though I think we're supposed to believe it was Dr. Manhattan, it's likely Trieu.

Looking Glass isn't gonna get killed. I think him going back to get the alarm is a sign he's still on the fence. And him knowing the truth has way too much potential to kill him off.
