I feel like the jump from I found brainscans to everyone figuring out what that means was Goose' way of saying you guys figured this out a long time ago I'm not going to waste your time explaining it.
I'm going to need you guys to not hate me when I say this but Pomni wishing she had pried more is the most (Pitch Meeting Guy voice) so the movie can happen thing I think I've ever seen. What do you mean she didn't pry? She knew Jax was on the brink of abstracting in the last episode. Be here later was her way of letting him know she could see it. She's so insistent on prying in episode six that she starts beating the shit out of him to make him talk... and this time she just. Did nothing?
I'm really okay with Jax abstracting off-screen. I heard someone theorize that abstraction is basically suicide, and suicide is rarely public.
Gangle being angry at herself for not being a better victim is so real and I don't think I've heard anyone talk about it?
Ragatha and Pomni being BFFs is great... but I dunno if I think it was super earned? Happy for Ragatha though this is like all she ever wanted.
Damn Jax's-head-Pomni really said I can fix you.
My theater lost its fucking mind during the Jax-Gangle-meet-me-in-my-room-scene and I still don't get it.
I guess there's no such thing as Jax's-head-Kinger because they have deadass never spoken.
We really never get to find out what's behind locked Jax door, do we?
I have spent so much of my life watching Game Grumps I don't know how I missed that Couffmo is Arin Hanson.
Jax's parents are Valentino and Angel don't @ me.
Jax is trans is confirmed in every way except officially, right?
Everything about Ribbit trying to help and being villanized because Jax decides later she did something wrong and finally feeling like the only thing she can do to make it up to him is to die is too relevant and I am deeply uncomfortable.
(And then I stepped away for a while because I was actually that uncomfortable even though I've seen this already.)
I'm glad we got a Jax backstory and I feel like it is fitting, but I also feel like it's... too little too late? Like. He's dead. Knowing it now doesn't change anything. It didn't fix anything.
I have. So many questions about Pomni mind diving. Nobody tried this before? Kinger didn't try to hug his wife? Did Caine vamoosh her before he could? If hugging Jax in the dark let her get to him, why does she not try again once he's in the fort? Could she have pulled him out if not for the most conveniently placed flare gun in the world? Did he explode? Is there nothing left? If they get erased after abstracting why did it take so long?
Everything about the Caine scene is gorgeous and I have no notes (Except that it's really unclear that part of it's a flashback and so many people thought Scratch was just un-abstracted and chilling on in the circus.)
.... So... was the blue AI bubble? Is that why Bubble doesn't come back?
These are either the five most forgiving or the five stupidest people in the world. You decide.
... Why are the zombified corpses of their dead friends in an aquarium? Why is it played as charming?
Congrats on the sex, Zooble and Gangle.
