Wonderful comments, all!
Lots of very neat dialogue by Sam Hall, and action nicely choreographed so that Carolyn keeps missing all the incriminating stuff. Chris Pennock continues to stumble with his lines, but I think he fared better during the charged exchanges. At this point, Jeb IS cleverer than his enemies, so his smugness felt more tolerable. And I especially liked that he seemed to scoff at Quentin's suggestion that he spent time in hell (Jeb: "You think that's where I've been?"). The Leviathans, after all, existed long before Christianity got its start, which makes them forces of darkness that preceded Diabolos. But I don't recall all the details of the hooded guy's involvement down the road, so my opinion on that could change. Overall, I enjoyed the ep, but with one exception:
Barnabas to Jeb: "You cannot let Philip die for what you have done."
In that entire century, Maine did not have a death penalty. So WTH?
Also unfortunate-- despite what they say, I'm not seeing sexual chemistry between Jeb and Carolyn. Before they kiss, you can almost see the actor thinking okay, I said my line so now I kiss her...
A blooper-- a camera pokes into view during a drawing room scene
Carolyn speaks on the phone to the new Collinsport sheriff, and she tells him, "You must call in a psychiatrist or something."
The Soup could dedicate an entire segment to that called
Carolyn Stoddard, Unlikely Voice of Reason.
Barnabas to the Spirits, at the cairn: "Know that ... my days will be spent ridding my world of the Leviathans."
Er, nights.
Only 4 actors in the ep, plus the poor schmuck who had to play dead under a trenchcoat.
Jeb implies he knows Q's old....?
Hmm. In the last ep Amy had the dream, and afterward she told Jeb that the ghost looked identical to Quentin and that he knew about Jeb even though his storyline got bypassed completely by him. So what Jeb knows now must've been tied to that in some way. Somehow. (??)
Meg's a heavy sleeper...
Ha! Whoever wrote Jeb's tale of waking Megan to give her a sedative must have spent time in a hospital.
So Jeb and Carolyn marry, then what? How does a wedding unleash the Leviathans upon the world?
When Barnabas spoke about ridding his world of the Leviathans, were the writers implying that they also exist in another world or dimension, so that what happens in the wedding ceremony would open the way for them to enter ours? Or am I reading too much into the wording?
