All he’d need is a cowboy hat and a guitar.
Especially if there was a SF con anywhere in that city.
He’s got the hat already. But to be truly authentic, he’d have to strip down to his underwear.
And if so, the functional second pair of arms would tend to lead people away from the “costume party, SF con, or street performer” theories.
Seeing Harry and Asta attend an alien convention was hilarious! Loved Harry’s comments about the many kinds of alien species identified.
They are cute, but they so know it!
“Are they supposed to be me? My people are not a costume.”
“Welcome to my life.”
I really liked the irony that the all the anti-alien speakers are absolutely right (the non-fake ones), and the warning that Asta got about “her” alien being Christopher Columbus is spot on.
This show continues to impress, even with the minor characters.
Sahar: If you don’t stop using that kinda language around us, we’re gonna have to wash your mouth out with soap.
Harry Vanderspeigle: Go ahead, I like soap. I eat it all the time. Shit, ass, piss, dink. Where’s the soap? I am so hungry!
This is probably pretty much certain given that they carefully had him not home when they visited this time.
Right. And in this week’s episode we gain an additional expectation: that the 30-year-old who was abducted as a newborn–by the Greys?–may be an agent of whichever aliens did the bus-napping, and may be someone known to us.
BTW, don’t know why I had been thinking last night’s ep was the finale; I’m glad to have been mistaken about that. But they certainly did seem to wrap up a lot of story-lines:
Sam’s murder; the estrangement between the sheriff and deputy; and Jay’s disdain for her birth mother, which was shaken by her learning how much danger Asta had actually been in.
Plus we got a heck of a cliffhanger, which may or may not be resolved in next week’s finale:
D’Arcy probably believes that it’s the Harry she knows who’s in that freezer, given that we’d just seen her participating in a conversation about how both Harry and Asta could be dead at that moment. (They’d ditched her at the clinic after they all got down off the glacier, so that Harry’s secret could be kept from her.) But obviously when she learns that the Harry she knows is alive and well …
Looks as though movement on the People in Clothes plot will take center stage next week, now that some of the other plot threads have been addressed.
I teared up twice and I didn’t think it was going to be that kind of show. Once when Terry said don’t take the thing out, I want to see my baby and once with the “proposal” with the sheriff’s star. Really excellent episode.
The mayor, Ben, perhaps? Might explain his weirdness.
They missed a golden opportunity for someone to walk up to Harry and comment on his costume and walk away.
Nitpick: Abducted as an almost-born.
I’m wondering if it’s the general’s female agent. (And wondering if she is really a government/USAF agent, or is someone personally hired by the general.)
That was my thought, but AlienHunter specifically said it was a boy that was taken.
" Mayans - everyone talks about their calendar, but they never gave credit for their day planner."
They seem to have spent a fortune on music.
And “Welcome to my world.” was a great line.
True; thanks.

He IS pretty-darned weird. It would be surprising if someone presented as ‘nice’ turned out to be an agent of aliens (thus making it an attractive choice for the show’s writers). It would be less surprising for the murder-prone female agent to be an alien-ally, as SCAdian suggested—but as simster noted, we were told the child taken was male.
An interesting choice would have been the human Harry, but of course he’s (it would appear) over 30.
They should have kept the line about the papaya dish–let that be why that culture was wiped out. Also, we see why actors rarely actually eat on s reen.
