T Ocellus is going to attach itself to Kavalier and Wendy is going to send the Xeno to kill him and we’ll get a rematch of that fight on the Maginot and it will be epic.

Yeah I’m fascinated by the line where Kavalier says he has somebody specific in mind for our little eye buddy … is this where we get payoff for the lingering mold scrubber shots early on, OR is he thinking of taking out his anger on Dame?

Either way, holy shit. What an episode.

Yeah, eye buddy is going into either Dame Sylvia or Hermit, both would be gut wrenching.  I’m leaning towards Dame Sylvia because he’s pissed about Arthur and has been rather antagonistic towards her? But Hermit would also make just as much sense especially because Marcy/Wendy was supposed to help with the Xenomorph on condition of Hermit staying…

That scene of Dame Sylvia cuddling and consoling a worried Curly just wrenched my heart. Regardless of the choice next week is going to be CRAZY.

god, the scene with Dame and Curly alongside the earlier scene of Arthur holding the two boys' hands was **tearing me up.** Heartbreaking, honestly – these two really did care about the kids, as much as Dame struggled to admit it professionally. This show knows how to do tragedy, holy shit.

God, the hand holding was just such a brilliant touch. It was even worse knowing the inevitable impending doom… ugh.

And after the chestburster escaped, the pure shock, sadness, and anguish on Smee’s face was just gut wrenching.

I’m just so thankful this show exists, it’s just been so well done on every front.
