Season 4 Episode 02: A Girl from Arizona (Part 2)

[enemyofperfect]

Hello again! How are you all feeling about the season premiere now that you've seen both parts?

I hope to watch this week's episode later tonight, but until then, a few questions for those of you who are ahead of me:

• Who got the best line of the episode?
• Was there a moment that made you wonder -- or speculate?
• What was the best visual gag (or other visual!) of the episode?

I'll look forward to reading everyone's comments when I get a chance!

I like your theory that Michael just agreed with Eleanor to smooth things over! I much prefer him being fallible and sometimes overwhelmed to his somehow becoming the secret mastermind he thought he was at the start of the series.

And yeah, I'm not that into creepy possessive Derek. Unless they're doing some kind of origins of evil thing with him, it just seems weird? I would love to learn more about Janet's other constructs, though. They seem rather better adjusted overall...

I share your hope that the season as a whole will feel more balanced! I know Eleanor is the main character, but as much as I love her, it still felt a little strange having her so completely centered as the only possible hope -- I mean, I thought this show was about working together? But there's been a lot of stuff to love so far, so fingers crossed.
