    When I was in high-school, one teacher put the most advanced students together in a group. There were only three of us. One of the others was a boy who must have had a glandular disorder. He was overweight and sweated excessively even in the dead of winter. He would have wet patches under his armpits the size of dinner plates. He also must have either not used deodorant or it couldn't cope with the volume of stink. Unfortunately, he attached himself to me and out of part pity and part good manners, I tolerated his presence through the second year of college until he transferred to another school. Reek brought him to mind.

    In the 17th Century clerics wore cloaks called pluvials to shield them from rain.

    Thank you! This brings both more meaning and questions to the story. Initially one might tend to dismiss Danny's sighting as drug fueled, but it's too precise and he is unlikely to be aware of Seminole lore.

    I believe decaying flesh is the most unpleasant and memorable of odors. If you are around it for any period of time, it will permeate both clothing and the pores of the skin. I've been in too many places where it was the dominate perfume to the point Vick's salve was a must have item.

    When I saw jut was the Word of the Day, the Battle of Jutland came to mind. It was the last naval battle between great battleships. Who won is still hotly debated more than 100 years later. It has only been depicted in one film in 1926. It ranks fifth in great naval disasters with 8,000 killed.

    Neither Rory or Danny have to be lying and are only telling the truth as they know it. Maybe Sam didn't want Danny to know he had changed his mind and was pretending to go through with the plan because it was easier. He gets in there and runs into another accomplice and had the fight.

    The noxious odor of house fire smoke and coppery tang of blood might elicit a reaction from Micco, but this happened before he met Chase. It's not clear yet if it's the stories of Long Ears is what they are reacting to or they've seen it. They do know from Micco's ability to discount nothing.

    I agree completely. There was a small homage to McCallum's role in U.N.C.L.E. when Gibbs was asked what Ducky was like when he was younger and Gibbs replies, "Illya Kuryakin."

    Since Danny now remembers Sam's attacker as being smaller, I'd say this puts Martina back on the suspect list.

    From Micco and Chase's reactions, they may have had an encounter with it too.

    What Danny has described is a legendary Seminole monster known as Long Ears or Hatcko-tcapko.

    From Anglo French mallert.

    Opining on the Word of the Day? You did ask.

    Think Billy's dad might be the well dressed guy who wanted to know where Jubal slept?
  20. drpaladin
    He already has an adoring fan in Billy. Think he needs more?

    When I think of purists, I see a deeply, furrowed brow and lips curled in disdain. "Don't make faces like those. Your face will always look this way."

    We don't know this for certain yet. Yes, there have been two, but two is not all. Another question is where has this knowledge come from?

    We have the almost inevitable miscommunications present when dealing with different cultures and languages. The combination of this with Beckett's impatience, frustration, and seething, new powers is not a good mix. We have the perfect setup here for one mage twin to impersonate the other.
