Poor Apple, the only one without a partner.



Also god drat, I just realized Max's gun is a gatling assault rifle. And it has an entirely unusable scope.

Also also I want to know the eyepatch girl's story.

It was kind of interesting how it felt like we were coming in at the end of a high school movie with her and the jock as the leads.

As for Apple, he's the DJ. He's facilitating dances, not dancing himself.

I'm so glad Apple was playing such boring loving music for the party, it seems extremely fitting. like "oh yeah of course he'd play this, that nerd"

True, but it was nice of this episode to just casually acknowledge that they're a couple and presumably do a lot of kissing off-screen. One thing that's consistently separated this show from more straightforwardly baity stuff is the constant, background understanding that LGBT folks exist in this setting, and are actually pretty common. Putting more of that on-screen would be neat, but at least they're saying 'yeah, that's an option' rather than hiding in vague subtext and ambiguity.

i was expecting max's backstory to be something regrettable or pathetic she had risen past since it involved a high school prom. nope! it turns out that max was always cool as hell and it was everyone else who sucked.

It was a neat and surprisingly heavy twist, particularly since the story they seemed to be building towards seemed pretty lame.

Yeah, I was extremely pleased with that.

It's a shame it had such a sad ending though. :cry:

Kirill is good at things that are not being a cop.

I mean you're not wrong, but I'm pretty sure that line is callback to how Rookie reminds Pink of her old dog. Since you usually give head pats to dogs.

Unrelated, but I like how this show treats the viewer. I love how this show says I'm smart. :unsmith:

I like how when Kirill is explaining the gene editing, it's some impromptu thing presented in the order his vague memories come to him, rather than a super-smooth presentation.

Don't worry, Dad. If I can persuade a pretty-boy detective to wear a wedding dress for me, I can probably do the same with a real woman later

I'm glad that right after it made me doubt whether this Kirill was the real thing they reassure me that yes, that is still my idiot son.
