Siphoning gas through a dead man’s intestine is pretty bad ass!

Well except;

1\> What did she siphon FROM?  
2\> It apparently took her about 30 seconds or less  
3\> They never got gas at the gas station - they didn’t even pull up to the pumps

Logistics and impossible time frames don’t matter! What matters is, that was bad ass! And she’s super hot!

(I was trying to figure out how she possibly had the time and cover to do that, but was distracted by her being hot.)

I don’t know if you all realize this, but apparently there was another episode last night. I’ll have to watch it tonight.

I realize the gas station guy was under the effects of Genesis, but damn, if that guy showed up in front of me, I’d say “That way, 45 seconds ago”. :eek:

I’ve never heard of this show until you mentioned it. What is it like? Do you like it?

It’s mindless snuff porn, basically. I started a thread about it and \*didn’t get a single reply! \*😃

I guess nobody’s watching it.

I’m only 2 episodes in. It’s a lot like Preacher. Goofy, cartoony sex and violence.

Episode 2 was brilliant, for two basic reasons:

1. More fun and games with the “die and reappear” superpower, following on from the great Sundowner fight. One wonders what they’re doing with all those bodies.

2. You just know - _know_ - that so much of this episode was driven by Sam Catlin going “Wait - what if I set it in an Indian casino but the _other_ kind of Indian?”

Didn’t even realize the season had started up! Caught up on DVR tonight.

Assorted thoughts;

- Now that I’ve had a chance to read some of the comics, I’m catching the Easter eggs they’ve thrown in, such as the poster of Bill Hicks in Fiore’s dressing room, or the treasure chest in the fishtank when Cassidy asks about Jesse’s mother’s family.

- The music choices have been spot-on so far. Never thought I’d hear “Come On Eileen” set to a car chase, but it worked.

- God damn, the Saint of Killers is menacing.

- If you pay attention to the timeline, there’s only about _36 hours_ between when Fiore shows up at the casino and his becoming famous enough to have a TV commercial, a cheering section with matching ponchos, and Make-a-Wish kids visiting him.

- Losing Deblanc must have really broken Fiore. I wonder if that black-and-white photo of them in Egypt was supposed to be a wedding portrait? The implication that there’s somewhere angels go when they die is interesting.

- Did Cassidy have sex with Fiore at the end of their snowball party? It certainly seemed to be implied when they were talking about foreskins, he gave Cassidy a look, and the timer popped up.

- Loved the payoff to the very first bartender Jesse talks to knowing where “God” is.

- The Grail’s plan to get intel on Jesse was unbelievably convoluted. They would have had to _know_ he’d come to New Orleans, ask just the right bartender for a tip about meeting God, and that he’d follow up on that tip alone without Cassidy or Tulip on hand so that he could fall for their agent-disguised-as-a-dancer and use Genesis to stop her from being abducted. It’s also kind of odd that the singer told Jesse the _truth_ about the guys who were (supposedly) trying to kidnap her.

- Hell must have a pretty inept bureaucracy if they put the innocent kid who’s there by accident in the same cellblock as _Hitler_.

- Why does Hitler speak English?

I love Noah Taylor in pretty much everything but my reaction to seeing him was “Really? Really??? We are genuinely doing the Hitler thing here?”

Still, with this show there’s no telling where they’re going with it.

I liked Arseface’s incredulity. “That’s your worst memory?” Hitler’s worst memory is an awkward lunch date?!?

I had a feeling that his art was going to be harshly critiqued.

Fun fact: the actor playing Mark Harelik? [Mark Harelik](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0362862/).
