That just keeps it up, right? Once you shoot all your loads, there’s some waiting time while your body makes more swimmers, right? Men, help me out here… I don’t think Viagra creates more semen or more sperm faster. Does it? Am I woefully ignorant of male physiology? ---

Yes there would have to be sperm regenerating breaks of a few hours. Which they seemed to be doing. ---

Why give him Mexican Viagra when they have V (the ultimate sex drug)? Or did they give Andy all they had? ---

I liked the scene with Eric and and Snookie in his cubby when his fangs popped out and he covered his mouth in a very Jessica way. That aside I too am pretty “meh” about the whole thing. I did wonder if the shape shifting brother was being told to keep putting the creepy doll in the house by Hoyt’s mother but she’s not clever enough is she ? Then I lost interest in trying to work it out. As for the Jason thing, I thought Crystal loved him …not from the books but from the last season… and her current behaviour seems wrong in a lot of ways. ---

> [@filling\_pages](#): > > Or maybe they worried that V would heal him and give him the strength to burst his bonds. Could be. Or maybe he shared his season one “V done ruined my penis” story with Crystal, and she didn’t want to OD him on V again since Jason’s penis and V have a bad history and it probably wouldn’t work so well in the state he’d been in the last time.
