Johnny is a step closer to finding that "spark' within himself. The scenes the director paints with a camera are doomed to fail when there isn't authenticity. Then you're losing the audience. Great acting allows the viewers to suspend reality for a while, as they become invested in the characters the actors portray. The camera knows when an actor fails to make 'that' connection. Fingers crossed here

Lord Gesi is a snake, he’ll make a mistake or slip up, and I can’t wait for it…

I got a bit smarter this time around with the biggest, 37 ton, wood splitter out there…with the the price of propane about to hit the roof, it’s time to fight back!

Wowzer…I have the utmost respect and faith in out little street rat…wonder what the over/under is for the bodies he leaves behind…

The thought just occurred to me while I was splitting some wood for the winter…it would be, and this is the vengeful pri&k in me, poetic justice if both Albert and Rob were to meet an untimely end, either by doing something so stupid as to incarcerate them for life, or die in an accident as they were being foolhardy a-holes… Oh well…one can only hope…

And nothing will be the same at war’s end….

Here’s hoping the burglars all get a nice hole in the head…

Loneliness, clubbing, and booze…a great combination….toss in being a prick tease, and there’s nothing like getting carried away…

Right, I had that bassackwards...should not be on the PC so early...

Can you better explain Mickey's mother's need for a male to assume the mantle of "family" leadership? As a woman, one would think that she could find within her "family" someone, and excuse the pun, the balls to run her organization... I had thought/wondered why Jessie's ability to always find, and track Mickey had something to do with Hughie and your comment confirmed it... Which then leads to the question, why doesn't Hughie, for the lack of better words, step in sooner when Mickey begins to spiral? That Hughie lets the disease progress to the point as it has devolved to now, makes me think that Hughie may have "issues' of his own... The vendor was silent for a long moment. Then he reached into a crate and pulled out an AI core—older than the others, scarred, its light flickering irregularly. "This one's damaged. Glitchy. No one wants it. It's yours." Mickey took the core. It was warm in his hands, pulsing like a heartbeat. Mickey paid an awfully steep price for a ''damaged' AI that was unsellable... I wonder if Hughie is more than a 'basic' AI....

Well…the die is cast, the battle for the holy city is about to begin, augmented by Julian’s good fortune, and a cunning wife worthy of tremendous respect… What is left is seeing the future Wylan foretold can be changed as Darren seems to think…

A classic case of how to win friends and influence people…..

While they won’t be invented for more than one hundred years, August’s brother and father are in desperate need of some distemper vaccinations…..

My goodness, talk about starting off with a bang…..

Looks like a wait and see hanger

It goes to figure the bigger the spacecraft the more snacks are available… Dimitri, you might want to keep Gremlin in a closet or hide in the bathroom when you need to relieve yourself! Isiah was right to hang up on dear old granny…perhaps she and “Father Bell” could canoodle across the galaxies on a shuttle built for two….

Could not have said it any better…

Despite the sad circumstances, things appear to be moving forward without any major setbacks… Lets hope the proper paperwork to bring them to Australia doesn’t bog down…

Absolutely loved this story, well written and just a pleasure to read, as you can tell by my reactions to this story. If I had one complaint, it came to an end...

It will be fun to watch Marc crack Frank’s shell…. This was only the beginning. Frank’s shell was thick, grumpy and snobbish on the surface, but Marc could already sense something deeper underneath. Something worth the slow, patient burn. He would keep matching Frank’s pace, keep showing up, keep letting the tension simmer. And eventually, he would crack that shell wide open.

Time for Hughie to send a ping to Isiah…pronto…

Both my father and older brother were Bipolar and I can attest to the damage done. It isn’t easy and so disruptive. learning to manage interactions and knowing when to become invisible. My father couldn’t hold a job, and at times convinced others were conspiring against him…a bigot of the first rank, and lived a life as a welfare queen, while condemning those who did as well…my brother, a brilliant mathematical mind, fell into drugs where we lost him. The wishful thinker in me often wondered, as with some diabetics who have the insulin pump, if something similar could be done for this insidious disease…

Glad to see Nathan is on the mend and onto Sydney…he and Martin will have some interesting talks coming up…

I have the feeling that Callum is an honorable young man. If there were to be any hanky-panky either Harry or Aled would be the instigators… All in all this is a beneficial arrangement that everyone needs to respect…

This was a difficult chapter, all the more so knowing the troubles ahead…as noted it is past time for Wylan to begin bringing Darren back from the edge of madness… Is Ishan in the holy city? I’ve been a bit worried for him…
