Show Notes
Jenny and Ted discuss Colony 15.x (bonus).
Episode Notes: Jenny’s feeling frustrated Let’s all get mad about… Sarah! Did Carol ever want to be a mom? Amy raped Victoria The vagueness and strangeness somewhat eclipses the awfulness and horror Don’t believe Amy’s lies A mistake so big there have to be consequences The lack of cover-up is striking Amy wanted love but built a sex doll At some point, Amy chose this The way this is written makes it hard to talk about the rape Ted finally starts yelling about Carol Carol abandons Victoria without a second glance “We need to get Grue in here to make sure she can still have hamburgers” Carol was the original black and white thinker Marquis’ aura Carol’s final question Ok we don’t talk about this in the episode but Carol was so internally petty to Sarah in their brief conversation and it’s been what, a month since her son and husband died? How bad is this relationship? Carol looks at Marquis with mastermind-tinted glasses What made Carol connect with Amy and spare her? Does Carol have a thing for a bad boy with a code or is it something less psychosexual? The need for rules Not All Depressed Dads This trigger vision reflected the granted powers This isn’t what the lecture meant by a group trigger event, right? They got what they needed Carol keeps her feelings locked up to avoid feeling weak again Alan’s not a cape and may not be particularly attached to the city A lot will happen in two weeks Will Brockton Bay actually be condemned? What’s Lisa really getting out of this truce? Worm: The Taylor and Amy Musical closes after zero performances Was it easier for Amy to get caught than try to get away with it? Is there anything noble about her decision to go to the Birdcage? Really good small writing details It’s easier and more interesting to talk about questions that don’t have obvious answers If they’re not willing to kill you, volunteering to get locked up removes everyone’s leverage We don’t even know if Victoria can speak or eat Carol gives up easily Contrasting Marquis and Amy’s powers Was Marquis a better parent than Carol? Carol’s guilt
