Corvinus85 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 38 minutes ago, The BlackBear said: Fascinating. ffs, the forum was giving me fits this morning As to what I was trying to say - the scene with Blaine and the henchman Spoiler Not sure if more didn't happen there: Blaine gets shot, the henchman says his dad wanted him to suffer before he died, prepares to shoot him again, but right before it cuts to stupid commercials, it looks like the henchman had stopped; after commercials the scene doesn't resume. My suspicion is that Blaine, indeed, has the cure and he laced the brains he prepared with the cure, either for vengeance, or in an effort to do good and quietly reduce the zombie population. The henchman was stuffing his face probably with some brain food, and just then the cure kicked in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedGhost Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 6 hours ago, HelenaExMachina said: Yep. We saw him do that a couple of episodes ago. I liked the weekly brain this week. Sockpuppets and note-passing, heh. Ravi's comment on Liv's boyfriend history was funny My takeaway from Blaine and his father's henchman is that Blaine actually did steal the cure (hence, 'I have a lot of money.' Don E kept mentioning how profitable it would be). The dominatrix case being in the background all season has been interesting and I guess it's going to pay off towards the finale. Presumably something is on the memory card beyond S&M sessions and someone wants to stop it getting out. Hopefully we get more Vivian next week I agree that this week's brain was great. "What else are you good at? Detective Babineaux is really good at asking questions." The guy being such a womanizer also explains why Liv was okay going out with Justin, otherwise that seemed way too soon. I'm really interested in who has the cute. In my mind the frontrunner is Blaine, but I don't think the comment about having a lot of money is a clue. He should have a ton of money because he's been in the brain business longer than anybody else. I kind of think it might be his dad that has it, DonE probably let something slip around the henchman with gout passed it along Angus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, good point on the womaniser brain, I hadn't thought about that. Makes sense. Not that I would have a problem with Liv moving on of course, I'd just expect some kind of reaction to moving on from Major after they seemed on the verge of getting back together (pre-cure, obviously). My favourite bit was her bringing the sock puppet up from the table in the interview room and Clive pushing it down. Something about it tickled me. Yeah Blaine Sr. is my second guess too. I thought the henchman was going to say something about it actually, rather than shoot Blaine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HexMachina Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Hmm. I still love this show, but I think it's trying to juggle too many storylines, at the expense of not devoting enough time to any of them. I could do without more of Blaine's Daddy issues for example, and (spoilers for this week) Spoiler The return of Mr, Big at the end of this episode was not encouraging for me, would have been happy if he never came back. But still enjoying the show a lot. The Dungeons and Dragons game made me laugh and I like what they are exploring with Major's character being so intensely lonely. This whole dominatrix thing is really interesting me, want to find out where it all goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedEyedGhost Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I really liked that episode, and don't think they're trying to fit too much in. I think that everything is working towards the finale, it will all link together. I trust Rob Thomas enough to stick the landing at the end of the season. I loved how into the D&D session Clive got, and wanted to get a regular game going. Even suggesting that Liv keep some of that brain around to DM it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The BlackBear Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Nothing really to say, except I'm pretty sure the pianist at the fundraiser was playing Don't Stop by Fleetwood Mac, it just seems worth noting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Anti-Targ Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Damnit! Why can't Ravi catch a break, romantically speaking. I know he's self destructed past relationships. But I wanted this to not be a betrayal. Maybe there's still a small candle with a tiny red glow in Peyton's heart for Ravi. I think serial killer groupie girl is gonna be out for revenge. Zombie truther turned zombie. What will he do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedGhost Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 This was such an amazing episode that I'm watching it again. Liv, Blaine, and DonE together was great. Blaine and DonE: Ayyyy DonE: Pop a squat girlfriend. This is a surprise. I thought you might have... I don't know, ethics, or some such nonsense. Liv: My ethics are outweighed by my need to find where Harley's hiding. His brother's brain might have some answers. Blaine: This is nice, should we make this a weekly thing? DonE: Wow, did we just have a three way?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Best episode of the season so far. But how did Liv know that Major and the FG were about to raid the cabin, just in time to warn them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HexMachina Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Really loved this episode. Didn't realise that it was the finale next week though. Poor Liv, her love interests just have no luck do they? Her reaction to 'brain banging' Ravi was hilarious. I kind of rescind my comments from earlier about trying to do too much. I think, coming to the finale, it looks like the season will pull together nicely. Probably the only thing I could have done without is more of Blaine's daddy issues at the beginning. Also, having now tried weekly watching and binge-watching, I find this show lends itself better to the latter. Which isn't a problem, just my personal preference. I prefer this show in large doses rather than 40 minutes per week. I feel that way about the other CW show I watch though so it's all good.

The Anti-Targ Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Wow, what an explosive episode! If Mr. Fillmore Graves did the deed with the CDC lady, I'd surprised Liv didn't have a flashback while they were at it. Her infidelity brings up the question of personal responsibility while under the influence. It's kinda depressing that no one can catch a romantic break in this show. As a STD, is zombieism transmissible in both directions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon AS Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Lots of stuff going on this season. They really ramped up the tension leading into the finale. Good thing that there's another season coming, else I'd be worried they might not be able to wrap things up properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If if course Liv or Graves mentions it to Justin. In a zombie society one could probably put in place regulations to prohibit single origin brain consumption and that multi-brain cocktails must be consumed, with a possible exception of criminal investigations, in which case the investigator would need to be under tight supervision. But then you'd establish a black market in pure brains I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
