I think she is just a rocket scientist, that's why she's annoyed. All she *can* do is design rockets, it doesn't work for anything else. She doesn't know anything about mechanics, it's like a savant power.

Well if she can comprehend how the engine works, it may only be a matter of time till she figures out how to build / design other things.

Unless the powers salesman drives a very car-like rocket I'm pretty sure it works with other things too

Were you not watching the part where she took one look at that car engine, went all CSI on it and fixed the problem?

Last I was aware a car engine is quite a bit different to rocket design.

She also said she was good with electronics.

Hmm, hardly the place to ask but was The Phoneshop (Or whatever it was called) any good? Does it really need a second season.

As for the show, Curtis should have revealed his power and made a night of it with her, one round as himself, then change over when worn out...

Just saying.

That was the single most bonkers hour of telly that I've seen in the last decade, I think.

I don't know how this show can go from a grimdark car surprise sex scene to a silly one with Rudy horking up pubic hair and make it all seem perfectly cohesive, but they do, and it's sort of amazing.

The episode really needed more rocket science from Kelly though.

On a dark night 10 years ago one man was doing a date surprise sex in his car but then women turned into another man and punched him in his face and made him blee. if you dont repost this 5 times or also if you date surprise sex someone a tall athletic multigender will break into your car and kick your head in

I think Saint's Row 2 is now no longer the champion of being surprisingly progressive. And they managed it without being overly moralising, which is a feat in itself. Although I was really hoping that Emma would stick around and Curtis could finally have a happy bisexual (and bi-sexual) relationship, his love-life's been crap so far.

Yeah, that was pretty much fantastic. The date surprise sex scene was the most disturbing thing I've seen the ages, I could barely watch it.

That was a great episode. The blend of seriousness and humour was pulled off very well. Not too sure what else they can do with Curtis' power in stories now though.

Another thing that was bugging me was I thought you had to put a warning up if surprise sex featured in an episode? In case a victim suffers from PTSD

Loved the episode, want to punch whoever it is that runs the misfits facebook page though. They spent what felt like all day posting statuses about how you don't want to watch this episode with your parents because it is so "raunchy".

Well technically it was attempted surprise sex. Don't know if that makes a difference.

Good episode though, and a good exploration of Curtis' powers. Next week looks interesting, as that storyline's been bugging me since the premiere.

I think the power reversal drugs were MDMA (or some variant), where as creepy trainer probably used Rohypnol.

Anyhow, I liked this week's episode a lot. Curtis' interactions with the group as Mel were priceless. Especially when Kelly thought she was trying to hook up with Simon. Oh, and of course Rudy and the pube.

edit: I actually just remembered something... If Mel can get her period, then it stands to reason that she ovulates. Can Curtis get pregnant?

Shrink part was the best.

Next week's episode looks pretty predictable, I figured that would happen. Someone has to go in the past for everything to make sense in the past.

Decent episode, and I'm glad he left things on a good note with Emma.

Only thing that bothered me was that they should've really got Mr Rapey arrested, there's nothing but some bizarre and bad memories to stop him going and doing it again to some other girl.

Obviously it's just a TV show, but Curtis is a decent bloke really, you'd have thought it'd cross his mind.
