Lost Girl - 2x20 - Lachlan's Gambit

[fembuck]

Trick:  All of the snakes at the zoo have disappeared.
Bo:  Maybe they're on a plane?
Me:  LOL

(something tunnels up from the earth, Trick protests when Bo goes to hurt it)
Bo:  You know this thing and all of it’s lovely smells?

Off to a good start Lost Girl, off to a good start!

A Pig-Pen joke?  My love for Bo grows.

Ciara, I’m so glad you’re back.  A tag-team of kickass women is so much fun.

Eyes being plucked out, what is this an episode of Spartacus?

The pain, the pain!  [Princess Amadala]Lauren, you’re breaking my heart![/PA]

Lauren, your geeky science talk is charming and awkward as ever.  I’m so glad Lauren came over to talk and the Garudia debacle wasn’t the giant twat-block that I thought it would be.

Ciara!  Knife sex.  Kinky, girl, kinky.  Stay awesome Hot Stuff.

Doccubus snuggles!  YAY!  The Bo/Lauren talks and emotions are so much more than I could have hoped for this episode.  Please show, fucking please do not shit all over it by the end of the episode (that means, Lauren better no die or go anywhere or be possessed).  The last time I was this happy about Doccubus was “Vexed” and we all know how THAT turned out.

Interjection:  My mom was in the kitchen not really looking at the screen during the Bo/Lauren talk that was intercut with Ciara/Dyson sex, so she could hear Lauren talking about her feels to Bo and how grief makes people want to have sex but she was hearing a dude and lady sexing it up, so she was all, "Does Bo turn into a man sometimes?" lol

Lachlan why do you have fruit punch mouth?

I love the Justice League feel to this episode.  Even Kenzi’s getting in on the action.

Ciara’s a fairy?  Nice.

Garuda: The human with all of her quips and jokes … who well, is nothing but a liability.
OUCH!

CIARA NO!  Garuda I hate you.  Fuuuuuuuu.  I should have known that she was gonna die the moment she showed up again.  Damn my optimism.  I never learn.

I don’t like Dyson, but that showdown between him and the Crazy 88s was pretty badass.  I like him best when he gets his wolf-face out and is super growly.

BO HOW THE HELL DID YOU NOT KNOW THAT KENZI WASN’T WITH YOU?  HOW DID YOU GET ALL THE WAY TO THE ASH’S CASTLE WITHOUT NOTICING THAT KENZI WASN’T THERE?  I’m sorry, Bo.  I love you, but you do not get to yell at Hale because you can’t count to three while strategically retreating.

Lachlan had venom instead of blood (Lauren said it was coagulating)? *gasp*  LACHLAN WAS A STEPHANIE MEYER VAMPIRE!

I love that Kenzi has the Xander Harris approach of ‘laughing in the face of danger and then hiding until it goes away’.  Good for her saving Dyson though ... I guess.

A very good episode, although everybody was acting like total tools. What wasn't obvious about the whole setup being a trap?

Oh Lauren. You can whisper geeky science facts to us any day.

And knife-play! Ciara, you are one serious minx, aren't you? Too bad they killed her, and in a completely stupid way, too. What exactly did she accomplish by teleporting like that?

No destiny for you Dyson! That's right! You're not a special snowflake! Whyever did he even begin to imagine he could interpret a very vague prophecy correctly?

Other than that, I wonder what'll go down with the Garuda. And where is Aoife? Shouldn't she show up by now?

Everybody was acting like tools! Some parts of it really reminded me of season 1 and why I hated them all by the end of season 1. Thankfully, there was enough of season 2's charm in the episode to see me through it (and I was just so happy and relieved by the Bo/Lauren situation that I was willing to forgive the episodes moments of idiocy).

Oh Lauren. You can whisper geeky science facts to us any day.

I know right! It's like, god bless Zoie Palmer because she can make things that have no right to be sexy totally sexy.

And knife-play! Ciara, you are one serious minx, aren't you?

I know, I was like, "Rawr, girl. Very rawr!" She was so awesome in the episode, and I had dreams of seeing her in season 3 and then the show killed my dreams and her. Especially having seen how kinky she is in the sack I'm quadruplely depressed that we never got to see a Bo/Ciara hook-up. I didn't want them to get the OTP treatment, but I think they would have made awesome bang-buddies, and given Bo's nature she really should have one of those (who's not awful and named Dyson)

Whyever did he even begin to imagine he could interpret a very vague prophecy correctly?

He's such an idiot. A boring idiot. The show is never going to be able to make him interesting or likable to me. He's just the worst.

And where is Aoife? Shouldn't she show up by now?

I was just wondering about her myself this episode. I'm guessing we're not going to get any development about her until season 3. Maybe a reference in the last episode of this season (if we're lucky).
