My predictions for the season finale is that at least one of these will happen: • Major goes full-on zombie and wrecks face getting out of Max Rager HQ and away from the FBI, possibly (but I'm going to say probably not) zombifying Bozzio in the process but definitely letting the cat out of the bag in regard to zombies assuming there are any non-zombie survivors. • Gilda somehow gets free and kills • Blaine regains enough of his memory to be more fully disgusted by the things he did and tries to find some way to atone.

Air is lava! posted:Thanks. Must have missed that. It was actually really easy to miss, because no one states what's happening. Blaine is sitting in the basement in the background being confused, and in the foreground, Don E says something to Chief like "I'm sure about this, it's my time to shine" and then it shows Chief scratch his arm. So like if you looked away from the screen for 2 seconds you could completely miss it. But holy poo poo, the scene where Blaine comes down and notices that Don is eating a brain, while Chief is slicing up another one, and is just like "...what is it you guys do down here?" is loving gold. edit: ^ I don't need to spoiler tag finale predictions, do I?

Major deserves this poo poo. Season 2 Major is a loving idiot. I was kind of hoping Ravi would immediately recognize what bullshit it is to keep Liv in the dark for "her own protection". She just walked into the office of a crime boss and beat the poo poo out of some guy, because she's looking for her boyfriend. Who Major kidnapped.

 Is anyone else confused about what's up with Blaine? I think the show was suggesting that he had amnesia going back to when he became a zombie, but at that point in his life he was already a drug dealing scum-bag working for Mr. Boss (who he now doesn't know). I had thought earlier that he had taken on the brain of the generic nice-guy he ate right before this, but, that doesn't seem quite right either. Help?

Well, Ravi said that he can't remember anything from before he took the cure. It seems like he only has general memory, like how to do things, how to run a funeral home. he probably knows how to be a drug dealer to, but he doesn't realize it, because he's not doing that. Edit: I also really want to believe that Blaine is faking it. It's actually a great turn for his character if he's not, but it would be the most him thing to just be sticking to faking it until everyone finally believes him. Then he gets his clean slate. Don E runs the Utopium business so he doesn't have to. Everyone keeps him around for science and pity. Snak fucked around with this message at 19:06 on Apr 6, 2016 |

Like, Ravi has been working his rear end off trying to develop a cure, while Major practically has access to Max Rager's lab. Major is ruining Peyton's Case and Liv is off chasing the wrong bad guys. All because they decided it would be better to lie to each other. Edit: Also, Ravi should. He should have gone through that entire loving book.

About 4 minutes in to the latest episode Ravi is explaining the cure to zombie Major, and says Blain can't remember anything since taking the cure. He doesn't remember being a drug dealer, or losing his mother, having a distant father and a cruel nanny, or anything at all before a couple weeks ago. As far as Ravi can tell, Blain has lost 100% of his episodic memory. All the stories of his life are gone. Blain still has all or most of his procedural memory. He still knows how to speak english, dress himself, use a fork, drive a car, etc. He also has semantic memory. If you asked him to he could probably recite the pledge of allegiance and list the ways various drugs get you hosed up. He knows information like you should see a doctor in a hospital, not in a morgue. Or that it is odd for a funeral home to have an impromptu blues concert and brain slicing operation in the basement. For now his amnesia has him off balance though, so he's going along with the only people he 'knows' when they tell him this is the way things are supposed to be. As he becomes more comfortable he should start to assert himself (once he rebuilds a self). His personality should begin to re-assert itself, but then we get into the old nature vs. nurture debate: if Blaine doesn't remember the events that shaped his personality, will he develop the same personality? He may be rebellious by nature, but without his dad's expectations to rebel against, what will he rebel against? Who will Blaine be?

The way Ravi said that line "I have a really strong hunch he'll just turn up again" (or something like that) suggests that he does know, either because he saw it in the book or because he put it together after being told the "chaos killer" was specifically going after zombies.

Liv not lying to Major would have killed his arc and most of season one, her not lying to Peyton would kill seasons twos Peyton arc as well as Blaines, etc. This is one of the few examples of this actually being done well though. Everyone's motives for keeping other people in the dark make sense for them. None of them are purely for the sake of drama. Like, compare this to Arrow to see the polar opposites of how to use this trope. Liv was hiding it from Major because she didn't know what was going on and was scared and then it spiralled out of control. Major was keeping everyone in the dark because he knew what he was doing was wrong.

I sympathize with Ravi, given that he wanted to say something kinda delicate and then Liv came storming in talking about how she beat up a mafia goon with her zombie superpowers. Still, open communication is generally the best possible solution for all things in life, but as others have already said, the show is good because its characters keep secrets for reasons that seem really good to them (and usually the audience) at the time.

So I finally caught up with this show this past week. I had watched season 1 on Netflix about a month ago, but didn't get around to watching season 2 until this past week. I am glad that I ended up watching it because it amuses me. Watching Liv take on the various traits of people is pretty fun to watch. Ravi is amazingly amusing with his puns and antics, like naming the dog Minor. I really like the chemistry between Dale and Babineaux.
