well, Megan IS succeeding with Don - without him she was failing!

remember that in the middle of megan's tantrum she basically just called her mother a failure.
Children being cruel to their parents is WAY more forgivable than the other way round.

i mean, that's what *i* would say at least.
Maybe she was asking "Are you alone?" cos she only had enough acid for one other person and wanted to offer it to him.

some parts of that video are a stretch but the compilation of all the shots of characters "lying in state" throughout the season is neat
― dmr, Thursday, 14 June 2012 16:50 (eleven years ago) link
hmm yeah some of that is grasping a bit, but the lying-in-state thing at the end is v interesting

thinking back, i think the only thing that didnt really satisfy me about the way this wrapped up was the pete/gilmore girl storyline. it was just such a romance-novel melodramatic situation... one last night before she forgets me forever... i dunno
― brony ver (s1ocki), Thursday, 14 June 2012 17:03 (eleven years ago) link
I sort of didn't care about it myself
altho it led to the fight on the train, which was A+ awesome

ya and pete campbell getting socked twice in the season was great

― brony ver (s1ocki)
i think if they'd actually made it out to be a "romance" that it would annoy me, but as it was just a way to display how much of a miserable, void pete is i sort of enjoyed it. tho found it somewhat contrived.

yeah, I was wondering about that myself. Does electroshock therapy actually work that way?
― silverfish, Thursday, 14 June 2012 17:46 (eleven years ago) link
That's possible, but it doesn't matter a whole lot since she'll probably never be seen again and Pete is getting his city fuck pad.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 14 June 2012 17:46 (eleven years ago) link
the irony of trudy acceding to his desire for an apartment in the city is that he no longer wants it. i don't think we're going to see him turning into don.

memory loss is a possible side effect of ECT it seems, yes. Less so nowadays; the techniques for administering ECT have changed a lot.
