30 mins till last ep, typing as fast as possible. I'm scared for the last episode. How will they resolve everything? (They will not, dang it).
*I'm with Michael - I understand why Peggy is a little angry with Michael, but she really doesn't seem like someone who wanted to stand aside.
*I admit I totally laughed throughout the dance sequence - it's so elaborate and inexplicable - but I also enjoyed it a lot. Yay I'm so glad to see Angie around again! I think I remember Peggy's dress of that shape to be purple, nice to see it's a slight twist. Peggy's unconscious dream version of Daniel is him in a sweatervest! hahahahaha I love it. I was distracted trying to see if I could recognize anyone in the backing troupe but I don't think there's anyone in there. Pity - thought I might recognize Ana in there or something.
*I quite enjoy the deconstructed set, like the L&L Automat sign (the green honestly makes me think of that creepy hotel that that Leviathan operative was typing from though) and and random revolving doors and then stage.
*Argument between Peggy and Jarvis painful but necessary, I think (and at least they did it fast). I really enjoy their relationship and how Peggy has support from Jarvis; this hurt to watch. But I'm on Peggy's side here. The urge for vengeance is one thing but what about the result of your actions? Do they actually benefit you or do they just temporarily assauge some mental pain that you could solve in other ways (i.e. why are you not by Ana's side helping her?!) Blah, I hate male plotlines like this where they're always hell-bent on revenge no matter the consequences or the thoughts of any of the people they're supposedly concerned about.
*The BLUFFING, I enjoyed that very much. Of Daniel, Jack and Samberly, I would pick Jack to play the bluff every single time, lol - neither of the other two are anywhere close. Very tense with the corrupt SSR agents - definitely things teetered on the knife edge for a second there. I also felt so much anxiety with Masters & the other three - can't believe Masters didn't see through it? I guess Masters felt he had effectively erased the wall-safe incident from Jack's mind and that Jack wasn't against him.
*PEGGY STORMING IN AND THEN BEATING UP VERNON. I enjoy that no one tried to stop her and/or could react in time...and that Daniel & Jack heard the confrontation and immediately ran over and were like Peggy no! (And the fact she was doing it because she thought he had locked them up somewhere/killed them). That's pretty tasty.
*What on earth does Vernon have on Peggy? Just influence that he could use to destroy her credibility the way anyone in the 1940s could?
*It's so hard to tell sometimes with Jack but the play with Frost (I want a seat on the council) is one that would make sense to her - she wants power and doesn't see another way to get it.
*Jason's "You're very stubborn, aren't you" - I think this is the conclusion of many people about Peggy :D
*I also really enjoyed Jack turning Vernon over to Frost. He deserves it. He got to hear that his protege is willing to leave him to die at Whitney Frost's hands... And again, Jack tries to do the right thing (though he's left Jason behind to die, admittedly) and is foiled again. I love that his immediate reaction is first that the transmitter is broken, then that Peggy has interfered, and then he runs off to find out what she's done.
*That last confrontation. OMG. Watching Peggy pull the gun on Jack is just terrifying, because she would.
OH GOD AND THEN IT ENDS THERE
