So we learned something very interesting about Agent Jinks in the latest episode. I wonder if the show is going to do anything with this revelation beyond a one-shot thing with Claudia. I have to think that Pete is going to find out and react with surprise.

I think Pete is going to be a little disappointed. Here he’s been living in the middle of nowhere with three chicks and a crotchety old guy for ages, and even if he wasn’t happy about getting Jinks as a partner I’ll bet there was a small part of him thinking, “Yay! A dude! Someone who’ll go with me to the titty bar!”

Sorry, Pete.

So far I haven’t been as happy with this season as I was with the first two. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it’s just not working for me. Just not feeling it, ya know?

Too much mopey Myka. Once we move past that, it should pick up.

On the other hand.. dancing Claudia. Yes, please.

You know, Mrs. Frederick had a line way back in the beginning of season 1 - at the end of “Claudia”, IMS - that I’ve been waiting two seasons to have explained.

To Artie (paraphrased): “Just like I could have saved us. But I didn’t.”

I’d really like to hear the story behind that.

Now this was more like it! Drunk shirtless Pete, spazzing out Myka, plenty of Artie, just enough Claudia, and new guy stuck in a bronzer pod for most of the episode. Plus bonus Hugo! It finally felt like they may be back.

And Scars on 45 for the ending scenes. Cool beans.

Didn’t Pete go shirtless before they were playing with the juggling balls? And who was that driver who helped whisk the computer kid off?

The actor? He was the guy who played Sam Adama on Caprica.

I was pretty sure it was Alessandro Juliani who played Felix Gaeta on Battlestar Galactica. Not going to say for sure because Sasha Roiz (Sam Adama) is credited later in the season. I guess if I rewatch I’ll have to pay attention to the credits.

The character, actually. I missed his name, and I also think I’ve seen him on the show before, but can’t place where.

Ah, well. Is it next Monday yet?

Nah, it was Adama, the criminal one from Caprica. Willy’s(and Bill’s) uncle.

I guess I can be thankful Ashley Williams’ character had such a limited part in this week’s episode. Now, she doesn’t bother me in and of herself. But this role just wasn’t meant for her. I hope that, at the end of the season, she will be taken to the place that’s even worse than the place that’s even worse than bronzing.

I find her character very annoying, I don’t know if it’s a case of bad writing, bad casting, or bad acting, or some combination, but something is definitely wrong there.

You know, I’m gay, and I would totally go to a titty bar with Pete. In fact, I think I’d feel more comfortable there than at a place where I’d actually be titillated. I’d rather not be the one with the obvious boner in public.

You know, I used to love her character. She was even maybe my favorite. But then, if individual characters can do so, she jumped the shark. Around the time she turned temporarily evil. I think they wrote her well to begin with and then stopped knowing what to do with her and forgot to write her off.

😕  
Ashley Williams has only been in two episodes and she was evil from the get go. Are you thinking of Genelle Williams, who plays Leena?

Evil southern FBI Agent, first seen being a PITA in the Lost Shakespeare Folio episode, and right at the end of this last one.

Ah yes I find most non Warehouse agents they run into to be a bit annoying.

So Pete has an ex-wife. Wouldn’t Artie, at least, already have known about that, given the detailed dossier he probably got when Pete got hired? I did highly enjoy the bridal party from hell.

Looks like Claudia and Jinks are going to be attached at the hip. I rather prefer Claudia/Artie, but then again Jinks hasn’t really had a chance to do much yet, so I’m open.

A question occurred to me about last week’s episode, the one with Hugo and Dr. V. They said they worked at the warehouse together. Artie worked at the warehouse with Hugo. Artie obviously has also known Vanessa for a long time. So why didn’t he know that Hugo and Vanessa knew each other?

I see H.G. in the preview for next week. Yay!
