re: "The Leftovers" Season 2 thread

I don't have a problem with the weirdness. Not every quirky mystery needs to be solved. I see some of the weird things as devices to tell us how weird the place is.

The guy watering the lawn in the wedding dress. IDK, maybe a cross dresser who was playing dress up during the Departure, now he refuses to change clothes ever again.

I would like to know what happens to the girls. Maybe that's why Garvey is there, a former police chief who will be called upon to use his skills to solve the mystery.

Simple explanation as to where the water went. The earthquake opened up a fissure in the earth, like the one we saw encased in glass on the road, and the water drained into it and is gone. I doubt the girls were swimming in it at the time as the earthquake happened at 3AM. No way those girls were out until 3AM. Also, the car was left running with the radio blaring and doors locked. That is strange. Almost like they were sitting in the vehicle when they were Departed.

Maybe a small scale Departure happened just to the residence of this town, because they were skipped last time, and the show is going to be how they blame their bad fortune on newcomers like the Garveys? Who knows? Lots of ways this thing could play out.
