I never figured out what to put here

House Darrow!

Oh OUCH!

I LOVE that this is said by Hudson. I think it can be easy for younger people to dream of impossibilities. I don't know, it wouldn't have had the same weight coming from those who have been adapting so well to this world. But Hudson has held back. He didn't dive into learning about this world and finding ways to enjoy it besides his recliner and TV. But he doesn't have as long to live going forward as the rest, and he can admit out loud that they had an opportunity that they passed by in order to do the right thing.

LOVE it! That's kind of big for Hudson imo. To say it out loud. He's reeling.

And of course, by letting him say something simple like this, he can speak a little bit what the others may be feeling even more strongly, they're missed chance and fitting into the world they've been thrust into. They're alone together again after briefly glimpsing a shot at living IN the world rather than beside it.

I love how the show is like 'hey we made it a whole thing that Elisa thought she was always a gargoyle, but we've been there and done that, let's just push through that this second time. We have to keep it to be consistent, but we don't have to make a THING out of it.'

And Goliath, you're right that she's right, but I think Lexington deserves some more credit here. He's just as affected as the rest of them and is fighting just as much as anyone else that impulse to believe he's always been in this way, but that doesn't make sense. It's a great little moment they give to him when I think it could have been easy to let it sit with Goliath. They could certainly have played it off as a simple matter of he had never fallen before, so to have done so, something is fundamentally different in the world. And while sure, that's at play, I think Lex's putting it into such stark logic is what elevates this moment to one of belief that their perceptions have been messed with.

To be fair too to the gargoyles, their world's have already shifted once so fundamentally. It's not so hard to believe it could happen again and that they're misplaced in some why, be it culture, time, bodies, etc.

Still. I will absolutely adore this character moment we got of Brooklyn trying to set things straight, Hudson saying something that could be seen as outrageous but doesn't matter because if it's his reality, he'll state it as it is no matter how silly it might sound, and Lexington following a thought puzzle to it's logical conclusion and then bucking the expectations of the rest and stating it outright, no matter how they may take it.
