I have to say Rizzoli & Isles really surprised me.  This episode really convinced me that they're straight.


JUST KIDDING!  They were extra super gay with sleepovers on top!  See ...

I'm running out of ways to express my feelings about how incredibly gay for each other these two are.  And what a big ol' lesbo Jane is in general.  Cause she really is a giant gay homosexual lesbian lady-lover.  And apparently a boob girl, but that's understandable cause Maura's dinners are fantastic.  Plus, Maura was so close Jane was practically motor-boating her and what's not to love in that scenario?

1.  Jane was totally acting like a boyfriend that had gotten dragged along to yoga class by her girlfriend.  Especially when she got that call and had an excuse to leave and was doing that couple-y "Maura!  Maura come on" thing.

2.  Maura was so freaking playful during that autopsy.  I just wanted to cuddle her right up especially when she made that jiffy lube joke.  Jane's "You are so literal" and her epic head tilt were also adorable.  And the eyelash fluttering.  And the fact that it worked.  And the fact that you know Maura manipulates Jane by withholding sex the same way Jane was manipulating Maura by holding out on dinner.

3.  I could listen to Jane tell cop stories all day.  So cute.  Also her cluelessness when Maura said that she had to go to the bathroom and asked Jane to join was adorable.  How is it that Maura Isles is more socially adept than Jane?  Actually, I'm sure Maura's gone to a butt load of dinners and politely excusing herself was one of the life skills she had to develop.  I love that Jane did obediently follow like a good GF when Maura was like "Yes you do" though.

Also, that speculative look Jane gave right after Maura said that sex prevented colds was OMGSOGAY.  It totally looked like she was thinking about sex with Maura though I doubt that's what Angie was trying to convey, lol.  Also, Maura's attitude towards sex and the fact that she carries a 'sex kit' in her purse is super hot.

I'm convinced that this scene was just Jane and Maura shopping around/interviewing a gay couple to hang out with, and Antonio Sabato Jr. was the one that Jane was suppose to play squash with and hang out with at parties.

4.  I am convinced the reason Maura seemed so amused when Jane whispered the word "Dildo" is because Maura knows that Jane is very familiar with the uses of them because Jane had demonstrated her skill first hand to Maura a number of times.  Also, "Yeah, the ice age women were using it for making sparks too"  Ad lib?  Y/Y?

5.  That scene with Maura going on and on and on about the flower/chocolate gift basket totally came off like her not so subtly trying to tell Jane what she likes, and that it would be nice if Jane spontaneously sent her something like that, you know, just because Jane was thinking about her.  And Jane not paying attention is what led to Maura letting out that "If he saw all sides of you he would lose interest" comment.  Jane hurt Maura with her indifference so Maura hurt Jane with her words, lol.

6.  Was I the only one who didn't think that Jane looked anything like the victim?  I mean both of them are pretty, white (though Angie is deliciously tan), slim with dark hair.  But facially they didn't really look at all alike.  Korsack and Frost being convinced that Jane loved the idea of hanging out in a lesbian bar was also stellar.

6.  EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN JANE'S BEDROOM.  Why the hell were they just hanging out in her bedroom?  It's not a dorm room, Jane has a real apartment.  She didn't go in there to get something.  They just walked in with wine and the dog and settled down.  This was the most coupley scene to ever couple on the coupliest day of the year.  Also, Jane doesn't strike me like a laptop person and the laptop was already at the site, which leads me type MAURA'S LAPTOP WAS JUST SITTING IN JANE'S BEDROOM?  WHAT? 

And of course, Jane declaring that she "would be the guy".  HOT.  Maura was beating Jane on my scale of lust for most of this episode with her incredible hilariousness, but that line got Jane to deuce.

Also, I don't know how the writers expect us to believe that they just fell unexpectedly asleep next to each other, when there was a good twenty seconds of Jane fluffing her pillow and setting onto her side so that she could gaze at Maura more comfortably, while Maura closed her eyes and did everything to indicate she was ready for bed other than murmuring, "Night honey."

7.  Maura's little rant about dressing Jane being like dressing a "squirmy little six year old" was gold.  She was SUCH a girlfriend in that moment.  Also, the small smile Jane was wearing when Maura talked about her clothes and being in 'awe' was adorable and won her good GF brownie points.

8.  Frost's "she is creepin' me out" about Claire (aka hot chick in blue dress) cracked me up because it was the complete opposite of what I was thinking.  Claire was the first/only date that Jane seemed to actually take note of.  Of course she did get a little creepy at the end there, but for a little while Jane seemed plenty happy to be talking to her.

9.  WHY DOES JANE HAVE SO MUCH SWAG WHEN SHE'S HITTING ON CHICKS AND NO SWAG WHEN SHE'S ON DATES WITH DUDES?  Her ghey.  That flirting scene with Missy Pyle was pretty hot.  Too bad that neck kiss only existed so Jane could have saliva on a swabbable part of her body.  It's like the writers don't even care about the resolutions to the crimes of the week making sense.

[bklyn-hunny.livejournal.com]

After last night's episode, this show is now gayer than the last episode of The L Word. It was exploding with gayness!!

You forgot to mention Jane totally holding the door open for Maura when they walked into the station together. She is such an attentive GF!!!

Also...



Yes, Jane. Those are yours.

[mayireadtoday.livejournal.com]

Also, that speculative look Jane gave right after Maura said that sex prevented colds was OMGSOGAY. It totally looked like she was thinking about sex with Maura YES! I'm glad someone else noticed this.

[khase-fan09.livejournal.com]

That bedroom scene, my friend, was the gayest scene that ever did gay, and Jane was totally the gayest gay that ever gayed. EVER. LOL!

[alex-davis11.livejournal.com]

This episode really convinced me that they're straight.
JUST KIDDING!
You scared me there!

EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN JANE'S BEDROOM
The gayest scene ever. And when Jane looks at Maura's bewbs? Oh super gay episodes, how i love you...

[karatam.livejournal.com]

THIS EPISODE WAS MAGNIFICENT AND COMPLETELY AWESOME!!!

THE GHEY CANNOT BE DENIED

Ok, I'll stop using capslock now. I loved your recap of thoughts, because very similar ones where running through my mind, but yours are more funny :)

[exposedwords.livejournal.com]

I'm MIA from LJ for a couple of months, and when I come back, you're all hooked on a new show :) It really sounds very very gay interesting, I definitely have to try and watch it

Oooh, by the way, what about this?

I was surprised to come back to your journal and hear nothing about Megan's kind of return ;p

[jello-o.livejournal.com]

Is it subtext when it's out in the open like that? Sharing beds, yoga, double dates, couple-like fighting... Most shows, you have to read between the lines to find this level of femslash but this episode might as well air on LOGO.

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

LOL, word...

[ic1pher.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Rizzoli is supergay. In the bed scene Maura looked really tense for some reason. Perhaps thinking whether she wanted to partake in the supergay-ism that had happened, was happening and would happen.

Or maybe Angie is so open, relaxed and warm with everybody... hmm. *ponders*

Also, the eyelash fluttering? There's no explaining that one away.

[orange-creative.livejournal.com]

Gah! There's... there's just so much to say.

And the fact that you know Maura manipulates Jane by withholding sex the same way Jane was manipulating Maura by holding out on dinner.

They have this deep intricate banter that reveals just how well they know each other... and it's at an emotional level we only tend to see in relationships. This is like my scientific method to why I love them so.

Also, Maura's attitude towards sex and the fact that she carries a 'sex kit' in her purse is super hot.

This. The kink!fandom is definitely rejoicing. And I love that any forays into something more sexually adventurous would probably be initiated by Maura. Definitely hot.

Jane hurt Maura with her indifference so Maura hurt Jane with her words, lol.

Long-term couple dynamics Take Two.

This was the most coupley scene to ever couple on the coupliest day of the year.

Aha! Your deductive skills are at work as well!

Is it wrong that I finished watching this ep and IMMEDIATELY checked to see if you had your thoughts up yet? (And yes, I pouted when you didn't. xD)

Seriously, holiCRAP. It was like the writers had a giant meeting of "there's totally a femslash following for this, so let's give them a MASSIVELY GHEY episode so they can giggle / squee over it." Not that there weren't problems - I mean, c'mon, the cheating lesbian lovers AGAIN?! - but it was totally awesome.

EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN JANE'S BEDROOM. THIS. OMG, this. I missed the scene right before, and I spent half the fricking conversation trying to figure out why they were obviously sleeping in the same bed again. Or at least, what random transparent excuse they could POSSIBLY drum up this time. I mean, this was what, the third 'sleepover' in five episodes? Besides, Maura even says "you sleep in your clothes." Why would she be talking about sleep if they're just hanging out?

Also, when Maura's filling out Jane's profile - was it just me, or was there a little pause when she called Jane her best friend? It seriously sounded like "No! She's my - *pause* - best friend, I'm not putting butch." Call me crazy, but if they're NOT already together, I think Maura has more than a slight clue about their feelings. I think she's just kind of bewildered / edgy about feelings in general, though, so she hasn't done anything about it yet. Their dynamic kind of reminds me of Barbara / Helena from BoP, with shadings of Bones thrown in. xD

P.S. if you haven't seen the new Warehouse 13 episodes yet, you should see them too. For all that I like Pete/Myka, there was a GIANT amount of foe-yay subtext going on between H.G.Wells and Myka tonight. I boggled. xD

[rightclick5ave.livejournal.com]

I AGREE WITH EVERY. SINGLE. POINT. AND DID YOU REALLY NOT MENTION JANE'S ~SUBTLE CLEAVAGE-STARING?

[boomwizard.livejournal.com]

So I finally decided to download all the episodes and DAMN. I mean, I heard it was gay but even I was surprised at just how gay it was. Blame it on watching all six episodes one after the other if you want, but there is no denying it.

The banter is always fabulous and loaded with good ol' homoerotic subtext. And sleepy Jane is just the cutest. Also this:



And every time I hear Jane introduce herself as 'Detective' my mind immediately goes "BOXER!" instead of Rizzoli.

[hannah-win.livejournal.com]

OMG. Wow. This episode was SO gay, how are these two not a couple? Everything about this episode was win-win. These two are adorable! I mean come on, who an earth when they have their own place decides to go drink wine in the bedroom and hang-out, when you know, she has a living room/couch. So strange! The writers must be doing this on purpose. :)

I mean, it can't get anymore gay... can it?

Your rundown of the episode made it just that much more enjoyable. I think I might have to cue up my TiVo and rewatch the ep now. :) Great stuff, I'll definitely come back in a few days to see if you post awesomely clever stuff for the newest ep.
