Notes on - Evil: 2 Fathers

 

2 Fathers notes

Nice isolation of the significant demon sygil as the opening shot

Monsignor is very hesitant about them having snuck the pictures of the secret text

How much of this does the monsignor already know?

Kristen’s answer makes total sense

David is not mentioning that the artist using the demon sygil is his father. Whoops, cat’s out of the bag.

Why wouldn’t Kristen be going with him in any case?

David’s dad is apparently a bad guy. That explains a lot about his outlook

Ben (D’artagnion – love that) is off recording voice overs for TV

Kristen is encouraging Ben to pursue the woman from that TV show – vanessa, who he’s called 3 times and she’s ghosting

Ben’s doing looping

Ben: This is a lie

Recording guy: It’s TV. It doesn’t have to be exactly true

And here’s Vanessa

Also called ADR

Kristen’s enjoying the nature

David: Not another house for ten miles. It’s like the start of a horror movie.

Kristen: Oh, well, bad cell phone coverage. Guess al we need is car trouble and we’ll have won horror movie bingo.

The house is named The Gulley.

David’s dad wants to paint Kristen something red, which she was warned against by Grace

*** Is he talking about his seed again?

Cori

David’s dad both got married and has a baby on the way and hasn’t mentioned anything to David

Oh, and he’s in a throuple. Very progressive

Reality TV editing is that deceptive.

So, did Ben write her number down wrong?

Ah, she transposed two numbers

Leon Acosta

I like this kind of artist community

Leon is being very evasive about the sigils

So is Leon being possessed while he paints and that’s where the symbol came from?

The sigil started showing up three years ago at the same time Leon met Cori and Esther

Cori and Esther just dosed Kristen with something

So the symbols are showing up in the paintings because he’s lifting them from Esther’s pottery

Hey, Andy’s back from Nepal

Andy wasn’t thrilled by seeing Ben the Magnificent on the height chart. Too bad, because he’s such a good influence on the girls

Andy and Sheryl’s awkward ‘see ya inside’ exchange is hysterical

Lynn is the oldest. I keep losing track of their names

What’s with Lynn’s lukewarm reaction to her dad

Psilocybin

High David and Kristen are pretty fun together

They do a weekly séance to conjure up the ghosts of their ancestors

Good on Vanessa for calling out Tony on the ‘scaredy cat’ editing

This is a weird séance

Andy actually seems like a pretty good dad at this stage

Sheryl is wearing all red

Why is Lynn upset with him?

Andy: I think it’s probably good you’re getting laid now and then. It only to remove the stick up your ass.

Sheryl: Always such a joy to talk to you Andy.

David hasn’t been high in 15 days. He’s being very casual about his drug use here

Man, Drugged up David and Kristen are super into each other.

Apparently Vanessa is famous enough for people to cosplay as her at conventions. That seems a little hard to believe

Vanessa’s ‘sister’ gave him the wrong number. Vanessa’s sister is grafted to her body. She died when they were little and not she’s attached to Vanessa

What’s going on with Annie’s arm?

Stoned Kristen is trying to catch fireflies, which is adorable

Who’s screaming in the distance

So now Andy knows that Sheryl and Leland are still together, but not the significance and has agreed to keep it from Sheryl

Why is Esther giving birth in a corn field.

And now I think about it, should a pregnant woman be doing psilocybin?

Who doesn’t love a good demon baby

OK, tearing the placenta with her teeth was a bridge too far for me.

Did that really happen?

OK, this is a lot of disturbing information about previous episodes to be laying on Andy all at once.

They’re setting Andy up to be jealous of Ben, which is understandable, but sad

Ben the Magnificent is indeed awesome

OK, What’s the twist going to be with Annie?

Clever scripting, how they used Andy’s understandable jealousy of Ben to goad him into playing the cursed VR game with the girls. That plot thread has been left hanging for a while

Annie Commerce

Annie was an ancestor died in 1859

It’s horrifying that documentation of slave sales really do exist out there

They found a reasonable justification for how he has a picture of Annie Commerce

The slave owners brand is the demon sigil

Leon’s argument about the poetry of pain is interesting. Reclaiming symbols of your oppression is a powerful and difficult thing.

David can’t really explain that it’s the sign of a literal Demon family at this point, can he.

Ben: You seemed so sane.

Vanessa: Thanks a lot.

Oh, Ben is totally just saying that to get laid

Interesting camera pull to the space where the sister’s ghost might be

David’s getting a phone call from God, but its Ben.

OK, that’s funny. Ben changed his name to God in David’s phone

David: The world is weird.

Andy’s giving major fun dad energy here

And it’s Rose390 back again. They’re starting to pull the plotlines for the season together.

And closing the game together got Lynn to get over being angry

Good call on ubering back to the city. I wonder how much that cost

So, so flirty

Hope Andy isn’t watching, oh he totally is.

Notes on - Doctor Who: Wish World

  Wish World notes Pretty white horse Bavaria 1865. I wonder what’s special about that year? Very fairy tale atmosphere It’s the new Rani Frau Rani Herr Zufall. Seventh son of a seventh son. And his 7 th son was just born Do not hand your baby to this woman. If she hadn’t, would the Rani have had control over the baby’s powers? Bavaria is kind of the home of fairy tales They’re very much setting the atmosphere by associating this with the foundation of so many fairy tales. The 7 th sons, and the woodcutter, and the cottage in the forest and all that Good on you Violett How is the Rani magically turning women into violets? Cool effect though The Rani has always stood for the opposite of this magic stuff All of her transformations are fun to watch though. I like the ducks Does this track with the Rani we’ve always known? What’s the one very special wish. We totally expect the alarm to be stopped by Ruby, but it’s the Doctor in bed with Belinda??? ...

Notes on - Doctor Who: The Reality War

  The Reality War notes Very brief recap. Cut straight to falling balcony. Good choice I like the falling buildings imagery. ANITA!!! Love her! Did they know Anita was going to come back all along, or did they just recognize her awesomeness? Rani: A magic door? He had an actual MAGIC DOOR?! The little… Mrs. Flood: Too late. Wait, the day just reset?   We’re back to the start of 5/23 But of course the Doctor was out of the reset area, so Belinda woke up alone So the world isn’t destroyed on May 24 th , It just never gets there. That’s an interesting twist. I did not see that coming. Very clever resolution to the cliffhanger that furthers the plot with new information This is such a good usage of the last Christmas episode Anita is seeing Ricardo, head of HR The hotel is in spasm, because their time shouldn’t exist. Anita has taken a class on Doctor Who terms, apparently On her days off she looks for the Doctor. Fun clips from new and classic Who. I w...
