Special ability: Can run fast (adds 3 to speed) and keep his thoughts clear in tough situations (adds 2 to intelligence)
Weak spot: Turns into a crying whimp if he's injured, especially if it's by a door or if the damage goes to his arm
To get a bit more serious though, even if it's almost 4AM and I should have been asleep hours ago... I don't really have much to say about this week's episode, other than it's nice to see Saul finally getting back out where the action's happening. I have a bad feeling that we'll lose him though... Either him or Tanya, but I just think she's got more stuff to figure out.
CJ's saying sorry? YAAAY! (Adds 10 reputation points to Chenwe)
Let's hope their sweat experiment 2.0 actually Works... It better do, it's just plain gross!
As someone else has mentioned... There's quite a lot that still needs to happen, and we only have three chapters left. On the other hand, it's about three hours too, and a lot can happen in such a short time... Look at 34-36...
It's weird to think that it's soon over though. I haven't followed the show from the beginning, unfortunately, but rather from the middle of season three, but it has still been some awesome two years! I'll certainly miss these Little 30 minutes of über excitement each monday... :D
Hmm... So the cover art is a cabin? Could it be at the lake maybe? Can't remember if they descriped the houses and stuff around there... Not sure how that would tie into the story though, unless Scratch is actually lurking nearby to attack them.
I expect to hear from poor Tardust NeXT episode, he is for sure under pressure if Riley succeets in her project... From the cliffhanger Kc left us with, I kinda doubt it though... But WHO knows?
:hsugh:
Imagine if we hear Tardusts's POV in the next two episodes.....
Getting back to serious business, I would label the latest episode as a nice bookkeeping episode. I guess that most of the plot elements to come simply required some explanation. I am therefor really looking forward to listening to some great and hazardously crazy action in episode 2 and 3.
And I do not want Tardust or Ink, I want
Scratch.
So, you are saying you have an itch you want toQuote:

Many of the conversations felt very reflective of the past yet had a bit of finality to them as well.
Basically it was a low-action episode that makes the listener incredibly nervous.
Also I think the cover art is simply the camera receiving safe-house that Saul, Michael, and Victor will end up in. I don't think anybody suggested that yet.
Go ahead and squash me if this has all been brought up but Victor really sounded sketch in this episode.
Michael "we've accomplished so much, all caught up on a stupid watermill"
Victor "Yeah, I know" (The way he said this, eh just slightly sketchy. Almost like he's saying yeah sure thats the only thing).
Victor "So than it'd just be us?" (probably just worried being out there with minimal numbers)
Victor "Wait, her cameras? We're not gonna use the spotters like before?" (whats it matter to him which cameras go up?)
Victor "I'll be impressed if you can get the radios working" (again just his tone)
I love Victor's character, really hope hes one of the good ones. But can't help but think he's hiding something even more now. Then again, it could be that because so many characters were in this episode, these are most likely sound bites and stitched together. Making the "tone" sound a bit out of context from time to time.
I think his uneasy tone is more with Michael's plan. Michael is because more of a loose cannon when it comes to Ink. I guess Micheal is "under pressure" to find and stop Ink.Quote:

Victor showed up after the colony was established.
Victor wore a ring of some kind up until very recently when he meets Michael, Pegs and Kelly. Kelly makes reference to how the lack of a ring on his finger outside the colony's hospital. My guess is it is a tan line. Was it really a wedding ring or something more ominous like a family ring???
Victor says he was an insurance salesman. Maybe, but it could also be a euphemism for a protection racket. Pay me every month so I do not break your shit.
If the Policestation was a good place to observe the colony for Victor, Saul and CJ, it would be a good place for Scratch and other mallers to observe the colony. Maybe victor was doing that, rather than playing hookie while he was supposed to be scavenging. But, I am just getting warmed up. When Lizzy was in the truck with Tardust and Bricks, he says there was this time at the Police Station... Could be nothing, could be something.
When CJ gets the jump on Saul and Vuctor saves his ass, it was Victor that pointed out that she cannot be a maller because it was an all male prison. It is not like Victor spent a whole lot of time at the Tower before this incident. Three days? Maybe he got a big information Dump off microphone, but I think I only remember him hearing Mallers were escaped prisoners, not escaped prisoners from Eastern Bay.
How the hell does Victor know to drop a laugh line about Rile's Sexuality and Angel's frustration on the way to the golf course?
I have always felt that Michael's original line about not so much for anyone to read, but my own sanity was trying to come to terms with a betrayal or how the hell did he get wrapped up in this Family Thing. We're Alive, a story of Revenge...
But, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

I have so much :tinfoil: that I can make just about any of the remaining characters seem nefarious. Remember, Pegs narrates and calls the soldiers in the Tower "Guardians" even before they learn of the colony. So, just poetic license on Pegs part or was she already familiar with this social structure?
When Riley is caught hugging Michael, by Pegs and she storms out, Peg says, So, you are going to steal that from me, too? Very strange choice of words, referring to a potential boyfriend as THAT. Someone can check me on this, but I am pretty sure she said that and not him.
I Better stop now. Lol. I live in Bizzaro-We're-Alive-World. Me put arms on Venus demilo...
Pegs says "so, you want to take this from me too!?"Quote:

"This" was referencing to the garden.
Actually, the "this" was reference to a poster she holding up and pointing to (still don't know why KC include this since it is difficult to see someone pointing in audio podcast). The poster was of a handsome insurance salesman by the name of Victor. How they didn't realize that Vic was the one on poster is beyond me. :nik:Quote:

What would have been the point of him joining up with the Towerfolk and staying with them for as long as he did without making any sort of offensive move or betrayal? One could argue that he was not loyal to Darai, rather to Scratch, and acted on her orders to finally have an opportunity to snatch Pegs... But he has had so many chances to do that and done nothing. Or are you meaning that he's pulled a Kalani and is now loyal to everyone?Quote:

Tonya, sadly, is a goner i fear..I think Scratch is going to end up with that baby, and now would be the perfect attack time on the way to Dunbar. Matter of fact, she might be waiting for Dunbar.. Tardust might have been the distraction needed to keep B&R occupied while she makes her move ..i'm also worried about Victor, saul isn't 100% and i'm afraid that Vic might have to sacrifice himself to save Saul, or die because of Saul in some way...
Skittles, will be found by Ink or Scratch....Leaning toward Ink...thinking Ink might have some type of control over him in some capacity, because Skittles doesn't seem to be overly bothered by any creatures other then Ink...and Ink scares him bad....
I think the title points to everyone, and something is going to break. Michael is under pressure of the mission at hand, Saul is under pressure of a loss and being a new father, Tonya under pressure of what has happened and Sauls resentment, B&R for hunting scratch and dealing with Tardust, and so forth and so on...Every one right now is under pressure....its just a matter of time now...
If Victor were loyal to Scratch I would imagine that during the assualt on the Colony, when Victor comes running up the stairs Scratch would not have tucked tail and ran. Rather she would have let it be known right then and there that Victor was one of hers and then BAM BAM BAM down goes Saul, down goes CJ, down goes Burt.
You wanna take it from here Bam Bam? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tuY...youtu.be&t=19s
We do not know when Victor got to the colony. He says he was not there when the rescues were still happening. The Maller Modus Operanti was to investigate and then infiltrate. We also must remember that Victor was only with the tower a few days, before Scratch turns it to rubble.Quote:

Victor seems to have removed a ring from his ring finger just prior to meeting Kelly.
Victor hears that Michael was from the Tower. This sounds a lot like where Hope and Sean came from. In my twisted world trying to link patterns, I think this could be significant. Maybe it is not. But, maybe Victor thought that the survivors of CJ's Tower reconstituted.
Like I said, I am most likely just nuts. There are some things that seem out of place. Look, 6,000,000,000+ dead and Durai, Scratch and Tardust are afraid of what the members of the other tower might be? ZOMG, 6 billion dead and that other tower might have a guy who was on the SWAT team or a prison guard living there. We are so screwed now!
And what the hell is Ink so afraid of? ( yes, I know Osiris, I should not end a sentence in a preposition. 8) )the world is kaput and Ink has to build up his army of Super Guardians to protect himself from what?
Maybe the story is just a straight forward TEOTWAWKI story instigated by a mad scientist, but I hope for something more complex. But, alas, there is not much time left for complexity.
Good news, Grog! You can end sentences with all the prepositions you want. Oxford says so: http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/2...-prepositions/Quote:

On the other hand, the routes to take seem to be very predictable. Have then String and Hammer fire fire their rounds at the vehicles from strategic positions and that is it.

And Team Good does not have the FORD.
Another builder episode...I like watching the puzzle pieces get stacked into the Jenga tower as we breath and wait for more. Skittles is hardcore, going on the treadmill for three hours. I assume he was going at a light jog. Although he did ditch the group. As a fan of Skittles I do hope we see him return before everything is set and done.
Of course Pegs would be a babysitter, hahaha!
Saul, Victor and Michael in the field, awesome times ahead! Screw your rule Michael, trios seem to have as good as luck as anyone can get in this world.
Yea, Skittles is in awesome shape. After running for three hours at a pace to generate sweat, what does he do? He runs away! Great endurance. Hmmm... One of the drugs in Ink's Beheomoth Coctail puts red blood cell production into over drive. Skittles even says they do not get tired.
Taaah Daaaah....
:tinfoil:
I guess that it will take some time before even Skittles can be classified as Forrest Gump class runner...Quote:
