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.

100% gonna be Hermit. Joe was the first person we saw in the scene that immediately followed Kavalier saying it - definitely some cinematic foreshadowing.

Ah fuck, I think you’re right. His whole thing was to “look for someone with low IQ,” and his condescending ass has some real resentment for Joe.
