geebsTV commentary:
Game of Thrones- Hmm, so that was informative. So, we kinda knew Littlefinger was involved, the way he spirited Sansa out of there, but turns out he had a co-conspirator- Lady Olenna. She knew Joffrey was a freaking psychopath, like she'd really let her beloved granddaughter marry that psychopath. And heh, Margaery is already using her wiles on Tommen.
But that guy Locke moves fast, he's already at Castle Black sniffing around for Bran, who has unfortunately got himself captured by the mutineers at Craster's, along with Hodor and the Reeds. And coincidentally, Jon Snow is headed over there to take care of the mutineers before the Wyldlings get to them and find out Castle Black has way less men than Jon claimed. And the Locke guy volunteered to go! It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.
Continuum- Ah, so Kiera makes her choice. She chooses to take time traveling Alec out of the equation. She doesn't kill him, but she does take him to those same cells she and the others were at the end of last season in Freelancer HQ. She also finds out who shot her- Curtis! Who seems to be acting on his own, as the rest of the Freelancers were unaware.
It was cool that she had both Alecs helping her on the case of the week for a while. It is kinda effed up that company was selling a bio-weapon to bad guys, because they also manufacture the cure, so they were poised to make a ton of money. But Liber8 exposes it, and Sonya uses the anti-bodies in Travis, since he was immunized in the future (or his past or whatever) to undercut their plan.
OUAT- Aw, some nice things here. So Henry gets his memories back, and the true love's kiss that breaks the curse is him kissing Regina after she almost dies. I'm glad they have such a big acknowledgment of how Regina is just as much a mother to Henry as Emma is.
But interesting, it was Snow who cast the curse, killing David to activate it. But the reason he's still alive is because Snow and Charming are of one heart, so she got Regina to pull Snow's heart out and split it in two to give to David to keep him alive.
Anyways, now that everyone has their memories back, they're distrustful of Hook, because 1) he reveals how Zelena was trying to blackmail him into kissing Emma to take away her magic, and 2) they didn't send him with the potion to give Emma her memories back. But, it turns out it was Neal! Zelena made a memory potion for Rumpel to remember if he wanted, but Neal took over long enough to send the potion and instructions to Hook to get him to bring Emma back to Storybrooke.
Things I didn't like- so Zelena turns Aurora and Phillip into flying monkeys as punishment for warning the Charmings in FTL, so they could possibly have been killed with all the monkeys the gang has been killing! Like, they saw with Little John that the monkeys are infected people, and they can be pretty sure the missing dwarves were also turned. So shouldn't they be trying to just subdue these monkeys instead of killing or immolating them!? It could be one of their friends!!
