To clarify: whenever the issue of Adnan's guilt comes up on this thread, it turns into a pointless broken record of people repeating the talking points they've memorized. No one here cares to hear your thoughts on the case, because everyone's mind is made up at this point. Move on.

Yeah this episode kinda confirms my working theory that Bowe is something of an emotionally stunted flake who should have never been allowed in the army in the first place. At the end of this episode I was left thinking "of course he wigged out."

Season 2 is a good podcast. Beau is a loving trainwreck.

If there is nothing else that explains why Bowe walked away from his outpost, it's the hiding weapons thing, homeschooling, and the fact that her loves Ayn Rand.

Welp, there we go. Got it. That's why he walked off. Those three things explain his brain.

What's funny about it all this isn't making much sense to Sarah and she going to wax on like, "I..don't... know... maybe... he is lieing.. I just don't know!" when its crystal clear to all of us.

This could have all be prevented if he had a computer with Eve on it and/or ANIME!

Man, the waves of "now I get it" when she revealed that the title of the group e-mail was "WHO IS JOHN GALT". But yeah, the weird descent of "he wanted to be a WW2 soldier - an 1800s soldier - a samurai - a kung-fu master".

He's like the Venn Diagram intersection of a few key internet dork archetypes.

Great.

Was I imagining this, or did he also want to figure out things like morality, interpersonal relationships, and what it means to be a man, basically all on his own 'pure' study, making dumb social experiments and starting ethical arguments with friends instead of just asking questions, reading books, and seeking answers? Because this kind of stubborn approach--in which you start from square one and basically never leave it--is very similar to at least a couple of people I know.

I dunno, if he never got the chance to do that poo poo as a kid or a teen, it sort of makes sense. I mean, that is the stuff you figure out by practice.

On the other hand, his whole "I will join the men in the bonding experience of smoking - with my pipe" suggests he maybe kept that up.
