The Garvey and Holy Wayne scene was incredible. Those two guys acted the shite out of it.
No question the actors bring it in every scene - someone I omitted earlier was the gal playing Nora - she's incredible, too. The scene with her and Matt when Matt reveals the affair - that's some of the most convincing acting I've ever seen.

Do y'all think the Asian chick got on the black church bus?
Perhaps - because we had HBO trouble on Sunday, we aborted and watched on Go last night - I ended up seeing that scene twice. First time, I didn't think anything of it. Second time around, I thought, "Did she jump on that bus?"

Why did the son leave the baby on the porch?
Not sure - trying to figure out how he knew where to go find mom. He didn't have a key to the house, probably, and left the baby - thinking Chief or Jill would be along. Not 100%, though, and I had the same question.

The GR is whack
Pretty obvious from the beginning.

Still not sure about them.
I guess we'll find out in time.

Does Holy Wayne really have powers?
Garvey's wish is coming true, isn't it? Family is coming back together, intact (so far)...
quote:
The convo with the priest about the chick vanishing while they were banging. Lulz.
Yeah - I think Matt suspects a lot of this stuff, but wasn't certain of the details. After all, that's the big mystery - the Garveys are in the center of all of this and initially, it appeared they didn't lose anybody. Now we know that each of them did in a way, and the only one known to all of them was the kid at school. But, each had direct or indirect physical contact with a departed - at the moment. Same thing that drove the dogs crazy may be affecting them (and old chief, as well). Mrs. Midnight is convinced that the departed are talking to old chief.

Lost
I hope it doesn't follow that path. I'd prefer a Carnivale or Firefly type story to an ever increasing confusion of Lost scenario.

Not as convoluted but a strong character driven story with a supernaturalish background story arc.
Eta: more naked Nora next season, she fine.

I have a feeling Garvey's wish was pretty simple. His wish was to be forgiven. He carries great guilt for cheating on his wife and family which was highlighted exponentially during the disappearances.
And Holy Wayne probably read that simple request for forgiveness and was pleased considering how everyone else likely wishes for things to return to normal and to have their loved ones return. Probably why he gave that big grin before saying wish granted.
And it is the show's irony that Garvey continues to fight daily battles with the guilty remnant when his own internal guilt is what's causing so much pain, angst and mental breakdowns.
Or something like that.
