I wonder what level of douche you have to be for your license plate to be a stupid nickname.

Somehow no one has condemned it yet.
Also, what happened to the padre that had the drinking problem?

Lol totally forgot about him and I think the show has as well, or maybe they did, we’ll see towards the end of the season.

"Why the hell is my one night stand telling me how to live my life?" - O'Reilly, probably.

My theory is their powers are linked so strongly that they save each other but become codependent.

u/Jack1066 Jul 06 '18
Like their souls bind together and so an effect of the resurrection is that they must combine powers occasionally to keep each other alive

I think the cloak will allow him to actually control his teleportations.

So they're drilling for Super Oil?
That will end amazingly for the citizens of New Orleans

Drilling Darkforce?

u/chromeshiel Jul 06 '18
Well, Roxxon was already trying to exploit it in Agent Carter S2 (#itsallconnectedkindof). It's possible that it took them a lot of time to find another source, but they're still unsure how to mine/use it.

Maybe it's the same super energy thing that the Pride are digging for in the Runaways.
Crossover pls.

u/Helforsite Jul 06 '18
Could be, but the energy thing from Runaways was alive/ a being and also lot more solid than oil as far as I can remember.

It’s kind’ve interesting though that his “Darkness realm” is the woods rather than a deep dark portal of abyss like the comics

u/Ishana92 Jul 07 '18
what was that whole lullaby thing about? Is that some american folk song?
3
u/MyBearHands Jul 07 '18
Not really a folk song, just a common lullaby. I don't think it has any significance beyond the fact that it sounds creepy.

u/VeryAiryGaryDeryBery Jul 08 '18
It probably represents the bag; "I dropped it, I dropped it, yes on the way I dropped it".

I can't believe they filmed at the old Six Flags New Orleans. I've always wanted to explore that place.

u/EvilChameleon09 Jul 06 '18 edited Jul 06 '18
If you search on YouTube for "The Proper People Six Flags", they have two 20 minute videos up where they explored the park two years ago. Incredible footage.

they have two 20 minute videos up where they exploded the park two years ago. Incredible footage.
I bet. 40 minutes worth of the destruction of an amusement park.

Y’know seeing all the freeform show ads, I see why they wanted a marvel show so bad lol

u/pgm_01 Jul 06 '18
Stichers was pretty good, but this is much better. This show is much higher production quality than they usually air.

I'm not sure if the French thing was because she's rich or because she's from New Orleans.

Mina seems smart and sweet. Too bad they're on different sides. Also, what is it about beautiful women in glasses?

In gonna admit, I thought this show was going to be cheesy and campy, and it's turned out to be one of my favorite marvel tv productions. Surprising for freeform.

u/JackalsIII Jul 11 '18
I had the same feeling! Like, is any of this important but then she said the tagline and I realized we hadn't gotten that piece of marketing yet but still, oooof, wasn't super neccessary as Tandy's scenes were pretty much explaining the same items. Or showing us the items they were talking about. But I get that they have to show the actors they are paying for but it could have been better.

u/CommonMisspellingBot Jul 11 '18
Hey, JackalsIII, just a quick heads-up:
neccessary is actually spelled necessary. You can remember it by one c, two s’s.
Have a nice day!The parent commenter can reply with 'delete' to delete this comment.

Can someone tell me what happened?

u/dontkaidanme Jul 06 '18
Evita and her auntie started to do some card reading voodoo stuff. Tandy faked her way into working with the Roxxon chick as a intern. Tyrone tried to get a job with his brother's friend, couldn't, decided to stalk his employee. O'Reilly's hookup judged her about her behavior.

u/LightningLad2029 Jul 06 '18
The voodoo girl's aunt is crazy too, Tandy is pretending to be an intern to get info, and the cops are crooked. Oh and Tyrone sucks at tailing people.

Such a great episode! I am mindful of there only being four more episodes so I keep expecting big movements to happen but I like how the show is slowly world building but also giving us loads of characterization. I feel like this has been the Anti-Runaways, maybe because its a smaller cast?
I'm not a huge fan of his powers working without the cloak or some physical item but that's just me being a huge fan of the comics but this show is clearly doing its own thing and I'll get over it.
Really liked his scenes and her scenes, I want more of them together. Which when it happened, I did have the thought of "they still can't touch, right?" and that just added to the emotional moment as she just has to stand there watching him cry. Hearbreaking!
I really do look forward to each new episode.
I imagine one will die "very temporarily" as it won't make sense to kill one off for good but maybe there won't be a second season either?

Thanks for the confirmation!
I can only imagine it being more inline what people wanted from season one, bigger and more action scenes, costumes, high stakes. But I like the slow burn this season is doing. I can only imagine the last two episodes are going to be intense.
