‘Doctor Who’
Doctor: “Sleep, that knits up the ravelled sleeve of care. The death of each day’s life, sore labor’s bath. Balm of hurt minds, chief nourisher in life’s great feast. Congratulations, Professor. You’ve revolutionized the labor market. You’ve conquered nature… You’ve also created an abomination.”
The Doctor doesn’t like the Morpheus machine one bit. Sleep should be enjoyed and savored, never rushed.
‘The Walking Dead’
Abraham: “I know this group, and I know Rick. And whatever happened back there is being managed and kicked right up into its own ass one way or another I know that. We got beer. And air conditioning. And WALLS. The table is set for the rest of our lives and I hope those years to be long and fruitful. I see that time before me and I’ve been feeling the urge to make some plays. Before the great cosmic Pete comes to cut my throat unceremoniously and I gurgle my last breath. Things are gonna go on for a while before that. That hadn’t occurred to me before. Been kinda living check to check on that point. I like the way you call bullshit, Sasha. I believe I’d like to get to know you a whole lot better.”
After a very odd day that started with herding walkers, and ended up with Abraham and Sasha hunkering down after being shot at, Abraham tells his version of how life is while they wait for Daryl to show up. It all kind of actually makes sense, including the worst pick-up line ever.
‘Once Upon a Time’
Emma: “What are they now?”
Hook: “A reminder that all sins can be forgiven when someone loves you, and I was absolutely wrong before. I love you Emma Swann, no matter what you’ve done.”
Hook’s flare for accessorizing has a much deeper meaning. All of the rings on his hand symbolize the innocent people he killed during his journey ruling the high seas. They are no longer trophies of a life led by revenge, but a reminder of the times he was lacking love. Can Emma’s dark acts ever truly be forgiven?
On page 2: ‘The Flash,’ ‘Supergirl,’ and ‘Arrow’
‘The Flash’
Caitlin: “There’s no such thing as a bird-man, Cisco.”
Cicso: “Okay, like that’s a stretch in this city?”
Cisco gets a vibe off Kendra of a figure with wings. He’s trying to figure out what it means, but Caitlin doesn’t believe him. We later find out he’s vibed that she’s Hawkgirl.
‘Supergirl’
Cat Grant: “Oh, Leslie, you and I got through you not supporting Hillary in 2008, we can get through this. Just give me your terms.”
Cat Grant mentored the villain of the week, Leslie Willis aka Livewire, and the two face off with Leslie ready to kill Cat. Cat hints at her priorities during the standoff.
‘Arrow’
Felicity: “Well, this has to be a better way than how you usually spend your evenings — dressing in leather and tying people up.”
Felicity and Oliver are attending a police benefit with Oliver giving a speech as mayoral candidate. Felicity compares attending the benefit to Oliver’s usual nighttime activities as the Green Arrow, but it comes across quite differently from the outside. A passing woman hears it and looks a bit scandalized.
On page 3: ‘Scandal,’ ‘How to Get Away With Murder,’ ‘American Horror Story,’ and ‘Supernatural’
‘Scandal’
Olivia Pope: “You’re the baddest bitch I know.”
Olivia gives Mellie a pep talk about the filibuster like only she can.
‘American Horror Story’
Iris: “How would somebody even know their anus needs bleaching? I couldn’t pick my butthole out of a lineup.”
AHS: Hotel dove deep into the mythology of the blood virus and The Countess’ past relationships this week, but it also gave Iris one fantastic line in her three minutes on screen. Will Drake, The Countess’ newly selected trophy husband, is unable to check in on the construction of the Hotel because he is off having his butthole bleached. Because that is a thing that people do.
‘How to Get Away With Murder’
Annalise: “They killed Sam, Asher. It wasn’t Bonnie. She just said that to protect them, but Sam attacked Rebecca and they killed Sam. And I’ve been covering for them the whole time. And now they’re going to help cover for you.”
Michaela: “Why are you doing this to us?”
Annalise: “Because all of this, everything that’s happened. Sinclair coming after me, using Asher, now this. It all started with what the four of you did. Now let’s get to work!”
The warped blame game is alive and well on How to Get Away With Murder. Annalise is the queen of the self-deluded martyrs.
‘Supernatural’
Donna Hanscum: “I don’t know how you two do this day in, day out, figuring out who’s possessed, who isn’t. Your life’s one big poop storm, isn’t it?”
Sheriff Donna sums up the life of a hunter in her classic Minnesotan way.
