You're not supposed to say the Ukraine either, it's just Ukraine. The Ukraine implies that it should be part of Russia.

mcbexx posted:Apparently it said "You are holding a bomb" in korean and once it was under the house and got bumped, it switched to japanese. And we never saw the bomb. The whole time it's just a cardboard box with an automated voice sound effect. PostNouveau posted:I love how all the criminals on this show are not covering their tracks at all, and law enforcement is still absolutely no where near them. Janice was the only cop who was good at her job in all of Los Angeles. I hope the phone thing was just a throwaway gag and not an actual loose end that's going to implicate Barry. Even for a depressed hitman, that's terrible opsec not using a burner to take out the Bolivians. Those lemonade girls better keep their mouths shut too. My prediction: Mom, the kid and/or Mr Madison try to get revenge but they don't know Barry has moved out of Sally's place. Since they're hopped up on wrath and adrenaline and they have zero gun training, Sally is almost killed but after they realize the error of their ways she learns they were gunning for Barry (and why). Sally is in shock and denial but gets in touch with Gene at some point and at from here my crystal ball gets hazy, but keep in mind the s3 finale is called "starting now", and Bill Hader described this season as "hosed". I think at least one character has had their plot armor revoked. *storyline proceeds to do none of the above*

Not enough love for the mother and son discussing whether they should buy the gun to kill Barry, and then it cuts to the gun store clerk just staring at them the whole time not caring.

I've seen plenty of screwball comedies, but I can't really think of another show that is mostly serious and dramatic but will just go full cartoon mode for a gag and in-universe everybody just accepts it and doesn't even poke the 4th wall.

I was relieved to see Gene decide to stop being afraid of Barry. There’s no doubt that Barry is a villain, but this episode brought him back to the likable side for me.

In Russian it works a bit differently, but same basic idea. "V Ukraini" and "na Ukraini" both mean "in (the) Ukraine", but the latter preposition implies non-sovereignity, so that's what Russian nationalists use to show that they see Ukraine as "little Russia" and not a real country.

I thought there was a fair amount of gags in the previous eps, just not one big overarching one like the app for this episode. There's no forgiving Jeff, Gene's gun falling apart, too many dogs etc. So Barry screamed at his gf and threatened to kill ONE kid. We've all been there...

I find myself having to remind myself that NoHo Hank is dangerous and has ordered the deaths of many, cause he's such a fuckin sweetheart. Love him so much. Such a good loving series, the way it so adeptly mixes its comedy and serious drama. Episode was hilarious, sad, and built some amazing tension going forward, what with the Fuches poo poo and all. Can only imagine that it's even further downhill, probably even faster, from here on (in terms of the narrative itself, I don't mean the quality of the show). Excited for the rest if the season, both in a "yay" way and an "oh poo poo" way. The very end gave me a little chuckle, too, simply because of how ubiquitous a handgun the Glock 19 is in the US--I didn't know until a few months ago and now I can't help but notice. Edit: as far as the break-up goes, I understand where Sally was coming from, especially after her last abusive relationship leaving her feeling so impotent and such. The audience are fully aware of how violent Barry is--it isn't like Elsie Fisher's character whose name I've forgotten is wrong, she just doesn't know how right she is. THAT SAID, his relationship with Sally was def one of the few things helping keep his poo poo duct taped together, and now it's all coming loose right around the same time. poo poo is definitely looking bad for Barry--break up is going to do a number on his emotional health, especially compounded with everything else and his former mentor recruiting new assassins to go after him. Like I said, I def look forward to whatever's in store. Terra-da-loo! fucked around with this message at 17:51 on May 17, 2022 |

Will this breakup be an impetus for Barry to look at himself and grow into the person he really wants to be; or is he somehow going to find out Katie told Sally to break up with him and go on the warpath? On the one hand, I don't want anything bad to happen to Elsie Fisher, but I know which option leads to more explosively hosed up drama.

I was proud of the Bolivian crimelord for not getting hung up on the gender of Cristobal's lover He didn't really care about that, just the fact that it was outside of wedlock with his daughter. A very progressive drug kingpin and murderer!

Barry's relationship with Gene will be a stepping stone to actually accepting Sally's decision and he'll grow as a person just in time to see Sally accidentally gunned down by glock mom and glock son looking for revenge. Then Gene gets accidentally killed by the acting student's dad. Noho Hank and Cristobal retire and live a quiet life in the rural hills of Chechnya.

Somehow the police connect glock mom and son and Ryan's dad to the Chechens and are falsely assumed to have been in cahoots with Ryan and this was a revenge killing somehow. All 3 of them go down in history as criminal masterminds. Meanwhile the police are continuing to search for the mastermind of the entire criminal organization, Kenneth "The Raven" Goulet.

All the splitting apart gets undone when Sally, Barry and Cosineau get cast on the same show as regulars. Noho Hank and Cristobal are there as they start a catering company as a front. Fuches sulks in the shadows plotting against Barry. Hijinks ensue. Welcome to the New* Adventures of Barry!
