The L Word
So I know you're saying "hey, Kim, it's Friday. There's a new episode on tonight and no episode review from last week.
Did you suddenly go out and get a life?"
No, I have no life that I'm aware of. Last Friday night, a building caught on fire and my local news decided it was their
duty to interrupt every fifteen minutes to tell us that yes, it was still of fire. All the usual toothless rednecks were trotted out
to give eye witness accounts and I missed most of Third Watch. "It sounded just likea train explodin'" *spits in cup*
"Mema nearly swallered her chew."
Nobody died and injuries were minor. It burned for about four days though. I'm usually a compassionate person, but
damn! I missed Third Watch!
Anyway, I did see bits and pieces and I was filled in on the parts I missed (the good parts dammit!) so here we go.
Little Finney! Holy George Foreman! Somebody's been workin' out. So can we request Finney only wear sleeveless
shirts from now on? Arms *drools on keyboard*
*rewinds drools some more*
Damn.
Captain Creepy really kills the mood.
I love this! Cruz is giddy. And not the Prozac giddiness of Season Five, but truly honest to goodness giddy. *hugs the Ty
too*
Cruz: CT Finney is gonna be somebody's bitch by midnight
LMAO!!!!! And yes, John Sullivan is the man. I love me some Sully. I miss BabySully already though.
Holly and Carlos went to Bellevue to visit Doc! Awww. Poor little Carlos is so uncomfortable with the crazy little thing
called love. HOLY CRAP! I love explosions.
This is where things go south for my viewing. I miss the aftermath of the explosion. From what I've heard, it would have
made my little heart go pitter pat too. Carlos jumps out of the ambulance and runs five blocks to get to Holly when he
heard that there was an explosion at the coffee shop she was on the way to.
My local NBC station didn't miss a second of commercials though. Bastards. I sent them an email asking if they were
going to rerun the episode and they never got back to me. Bastards squared. They break in saying it's breaking news, but
it had been burning for four and a half hours. What's "breaking" about that?
It breaks in at the point where Captain Creepy is talking to the guy that Ty went to ask for help when he got the file from
Monrat. Loyalty and honor? That is the textbook definition of the pot calling the kettle black.
Who was that red headed, Midwestern guy in Bosco's bed? I guess getting shot in the neck and mouth knocked the New
York accent out of him. I must say Faith looks hot though. She looks comfortable, like she does paperwork in Bosco's
room frequently.
Faith: Yeah, well with you and me it usually takes some sort of tragedy to get us back together.
Redheaded guy: Tough love.
If that was Bosco, I would be all asquee. Maybe next week, huh?
I missed who the new guy is. Santiago I guess. He seems fun. That's not the usual reaction when notifying a family. Full
on laughter. Cute scene.
Little Finney: Super cop here has gotta have truth and justice for all.
*snickers* I love Little Finney. Captain Creepy, not so much. PapaSwersky melts my butter though. He's large and in
charge. You go Papa. Kick Captain Creepy to the curb.
Sully the cynical is full on sad. Poor Sulster's havin' a bad day. John Sullivan, King of the Rant. Long live the king.
