That's how I get when Vincent Irizarry responds to one of my tweets.

[AMCHistory]

I'm Debbi Morgan.

Just kidding

So, David and Angie.... they are going there I think. They were dropping hints big time Tuesday with David telling Jesse Angie deserves better....

Opal is all about keeping Pete in town.

To that end, I think Opal is pro-Pete/Celia (I wish she wasn't) AND she purposely went to see Evelyn to cause trouble for them because I think she thinks that the harder it is for Pete to be with Celia, the more he will want her and the longer he will stay in town.

Poor Cass...

Nice to see Miranda there for AJ. Does she call Adam, Adam?

[Khan]

IA. I enjoy characters better when they're allowed to exist outside of their storyline of the moment.

[Khan]

No, Agnes Nixon and her ability to create entire races out of thin air are what are keeping them eternally youthful.

[Khan]

Oh, they'd be some testifyin' in chuch today! PRAISE HER ALL DAY LONG!

[R Sinclair]

You mean Holy Agnes!

[Vee]

I suspect it may be a fool's errand but I am still shipping Bianca and Cassandra for no goddamn good reason. Her "I'm not the girl you want for this" raised my eyebrows.

Isn't she supposed to be out of college though? I got a hard time believing she's a virgin unless she is just that sheltered after being raised by Angie and Jacob as their miracle pride and joy.

[EnglishTea]

Yeah, but why the hell is Brooke not going to the hospital as well rather than listening to Celia wax on about Pete. This was truly a WTF moment to me.

[Khan]

Brooke wanted to go. However, Celia's supernatural ability to render others immobile through sheer boredom is just too strong.

[EricMontreal22]

I'm not sure we are supposed to believe she's a virgin--that may have just been one thing to say to try to disinterest them or at least leave her be longer as she knows keeping the "v card" as Celia and that friend of Pete's likes to say makes them unharm her longer...

I thought it was a pretty strong episode too, and the balance actually felt a lot better for me. I'm gonna give it a couple more weaks before I worry about certain characters or stories being focused on too much--while some of the setup is clumsy (very clumsy with Pete/Celia who were at least better today--I liked that he laughed at how dumb her comment about how exciting their date was--isn't their a clip online of a location scene where she runs out of the school and into his car and they speed off?) it seems that part fo the blame is they want to get to a certain point with these stories quickly, and I can't blame them there.

And yes muscle underwear dude both kinda made me laugh at the end and made me really uncomfortable (this is not the kinda porn Ron Carlivati had his young adults forced to do on One Life... Hold the Salami, indeed.)

[AMCHistory]

The guy looks like a reject from the WWF.

[Antoyne]

Why don't Angie and Jesse call Baby Genius Lucy. Surely she's finished her C.I.A. training by now..

[Khan]

Ah, that Lucy. Such a credit to the Baby Genius race.

Obviously, I know nothing about sex trafficking, but wouldn't it be better for Cassandra to say she WASN'T a virgin? Wouldn't (Y)uri and Vlad find that to be an asset? I mean, if I were in her situation, I'd make like I had [!@#$%^&*] even the U.S. Department of Health and CDC hadn't heard of.
