geebsI cannot wait until Wednesday when I can have something other than soup to eat. And I forgot how these two particular drugs left me feeling nauseous half the time the last couple of times I was on them. But they've definitely worked since the pain is just about gone now.
TV Commentary:
24- What the frak?! So not only was Starbuck secret white trash, she's also the mole?! I don't think that actually makes sense. I mean, if she's willing to kill Jimmy James in the middle of CTU, why didn't she just smoke Kevin and Nick at her apartment when she knew they would be trouble?!
And heh, that NSA guy is such a dick, screaming at Chloe for being incompetent enough to let an EMP take out her systems. Uh, I don't think she actually had a choice in the matter, since there was nothing she could've done against someone driving an EMP bomb into the building!
And wth, its nice to see Renee again, and I'll give her being able to kill the one guy when she had the drop on him, but for the past half hour the IRK guys and CTU had been shooting it out and not hitting each other (well, until the one CTU guy freaked out, and rookie kid went to save him), but after she killed that guy, she just takes the other guy out when Cole and Jack (who should be better trained, and not because they're guys, because they are CTU agents and would be more adept at combat, whereas Renee was FBI and does more investigative and undercover work!) could hardly hit them all hour!
Chuck- Man, they're never consistent on why Chuck and Sarah aren't together. So Chuck thinks if he becomes a spy, then they can date because then they'll both be spies. I guess it was Shaw she told she doesn't date co-workers, except when she does, but still, it seemed it was pretty obvious Sarah's not keen on Chuck becoming a spy. So why does he think that's the only thing that's keeping him apart. It was amusing though, that he was trying so hard to be a real spy, and being a real spy is what would turn Sarah off the most!
And wait, if he failed the test, they would just throw him back in civilian life? Doesn't he still have the intersect in his head? If he fails, they can't have him just going out and about with that stuff in his head! And if he passed, he'd be shipped off to Italy as a wealthy industrialist doing spy stuff there, and he's acting like its no big deal, like what about Ellie and Awesome and Morgan, he's all of a sudden fine with just leaving them at a moment's notice and disappearing?
And he did fail, since it was Casey who actually shot the guy (although Chuck would've been killing in self defense, and not cold blood since the guy was drawing on him). And he's just fine with that? I mean, if he's not willing to kill, maybe he shouldn't be in that business. And how is Casey doing Chuck a favor by doing that? What happens the next time he needs to kill somebody? Is he gonna have Casey shadow him all the time and kill people for him?!
I do have an insane theory though, because I found it kinda weird they actually played out the flashback when Sarah had her final test and she had to kill that one chick. And she was all, she thought she was drawing on her, so she shot her, but she didn't actually check if her target was gonna shoot her. What if that chick was Shaw's wife? And this whole time Shaw has been slowly plotting his revenge against the agent who killed her, Sarah? I mean, its a weird little tidbit to have all of a sudden, unless it means something, much like Paulie Walnuts and the Alex Coburn thing.
HIMYM- I'm not sure who's side to take on this. Prolly Lily's. I mean, I get Ted's a romantic, so he thinks things are going somewhere with these girls, but it is kinda rude for him to just bring these chyx to intimate functions like that. He should at least clear it with them instead of just showing up with these random girls. I mean, Robin was once of those girls, but as they said, she's the exception, not the rule.
I mean, the party games showed how awkward it is to bring a virtual stranger to these functions. And sure, if things do go somewhere with these chicks he brings, how are they not gonna be strangers unless they do start spending more time with his friends, but ease them into it. I think he should be waiting an appropriate amount of time, maybe some casual meetings at the bar first before bringing them to something like one of their birthdays, especially without asking.
And if that chick was making a b-day cake, wouldn't she make sure she got the name and age right?!
