I enjoyed the hell out of Lynn Redgraves turn as Matt’s grannie in last night’s show. The guy is seriously screwed up on so many levels, he needs all the help he can get.
What was the magazine that Julia found? “Chesty Organ?” Was it devoted to pre-op transexuals - I just caught a brief glimpse of the cover.
Also, how did the surgery on the gorilla turn out? We turned the TV off before the end of the episode.
What a brutal episode! Damn.
Yes, I believe that was the name, as well as the content, of the book Julia found. Matt sure is one seriously fucked up kid, but thank goodness he finally shed that hideous hair that made him look like a Michael Jackson impersonating freak.
I was annoyed that the writers didn’t even address the fact that non-human animal surgery was already done as a storyline last year when Milton Buttle (I can’t remember his name on this show – sorry) lost his license for trying to operate on a dog. And given what happened with that, you’d think these guys would be smart enough to run screaming from even the suggestion. That they actually did it is ridiculous, especially for the specious reason given.
And as it turned out, it was completely worthless, as the male gorilla apparently found the now un-scarred Kiki to look either unfamiliar or unattractive and he attacked and killed her when they tried to get them to mate. Stupid.
My heart broke for the ex-gang guy who was trying to turn his life around. I hope Sean does right by him next episode. Even though he’s legally barred from hiring him to work at the practice, he could have at least offered him landscaping work at his house or something, or even a referral somewhere.
But those simultaneous chase and beating scenes at the end were chilling. In spite of the idiotic ape surgery story, this week’s episode totally outshone last week’s. It was tough, gritty, titillating, heartwrenching and heart-pounding.
If anybody in the world has the right to be a seriously messed-up kid, it’s Matt. I guess with Ava’s son out of the picture, he no longer has anyone to compete with in the Girliest-Looking Guy contest, Non-Drag division.
I could buy that they had special permission to operate on Kiki, but it would have been nice if they had mentioned it for those of us who remembered Bobolith’s downfall. It seems to me that there have to be specialists out there in veterinary plastic surgery, given all the cosmetic procedures people have done to dogs. Then again, M/T seem to be considered the best of the best, so maybe they thought the best human plastic surgeon would be better than the best animal plastic surgeon. It isn’t realistic, but I don’t expect it to be.
Good episode, but not enough Hot British Cop. The character annoys me, but damn, she’s hot.
I knew as soon as we were told about the ape that the ape was going to die. I am kinda getting tired of the formula of introducing us to a new character every week, and then finding some heart-wrenching to kill off that same character.
Matt is a bitch. I used to have a little bit of sympathy for him, but after he beat the crap out of that transexual last night, I think he deserves each and every beatdown he gets. However, I think Matt looks a lot better now that he has shaved his head. He looks less like a diseased Michael Jackson/Monkey hybrid and more like an infected q-tip, which is an improvement.
Holy cow, I hate the brown scrubs they are wearing this season. I wonder what the deal with that is? They look like giant, wise-cracking turds.
I miss Rescue Me. Dr. Troy is yummy, but Denis Leary is the real deal.
Yeah, they should have referred her to Dr. Bower, over at the Inconceivable clinic. 
Anyone taking odds that she’s the Carver?
I know she said she just flew in and all, but I think she knows how to get the blood going in a variety of ways.
