Also loved this episode. It was more powerful for me than the episode with the fire.

I agree. I think it was the second-best episode of the entire series, next to “Memphis.” Powerful performances from Nickys young and old.

Toby works. Don’t know what but he’s a geek so probably does okay.

Kevin laid a hand on Nicky's shoulder, and that was it, I think.

I just don't get Zoe. "It's over here's your key" and then like 10 seconds later "JK give it back!". I like Kevin more than her which is weird.

I am into seeing more about Beth though. And I'm curious about the Nicky storyline.

I have been a Kate fan, but she's losing me. I just can't resonate. Do either of them have jobs?

One can only assume that the candidates attended the primary church service of the day, which was likely 10 am, at the latest. That means Randall, who was in Philly late the night before, got to sleep in to the ripe old time of, what, 6 am??


Many churches have multiple services. My church has an 0730 and and 1100 hour service. There’s also an evening service. Very accommodating to different lifestyle schedules.

I hate the Nicky storyline. I hate all Kate storylines. I'm loving Kevin! His story, his acting and, as always, his looks.

That's all I could think - why on earth is the election in January? This isn't a special election.

Kate needs to stop giving monologues to people. Nobody cares. I'm glad that guy didn't sell her back the action figures.

Agree. And in January? I don’t get it.


Was there any explanation for the January date for the election? Seemed so odd.

But I am curious about Nicky, so I'm looking forward to next week.

I'm one who hates when the thread gets sidetracked into trivial discussions of time/geography, etc., but even I noticed that.

Now we have to follow along during all the boring city councilman business. Ugh. I was hoping he'd lose and find something really cool to do.

Love him/his character. I was laughing during the GoT exchange at the VA. His face was too funny when the clerk one-upped him with her GoT knowledge.
