It's probably not a legit breakthrough. There's likely some timebomb that'll frick Gavin over and save our boys to fight another day, but only after he's tortured them for a bunch of episodes. Yay, more scenes with Richard throwing up.

ETA: Ignore me. Forgot the ending as kindly pointed out below.

You don't remember Gavin saying "motherfricker" in Chinese after he found out?

I did see it, but the idea that Gavin was going to directly stick it to Richard again is what stuck with me for whatever reason.

Someone has to come up with a list of all the disturbing things that Jared has implied he's done in the past.

It seems like he was a homeless prostitute who was taken in by an elderly lady who is now dead, for starters. Did he mention some borderline abusive stuff about his family?

Jared is my favorite tv character in years.

And then his reaction when they ripped her apart

Here's a good list of Jared Quotes. It's nice to read because he delivers them so subtly you can easily miss them the first time. LINK

I didn’t really like him when he was Gabe on The Office, but he nails it on Silicon Valley.

They even have him constantly rocking the Midtown Uniform LINK

i didnt either

but if you rewatch the office episodes with Gabe you'll find them hilarious because you understand Zach Woods' sense of humor so much more now

these are awesome

Jared: But Hooli was like an abusive spouse to me. You know, like that guy who married Julia Roberts in "Sleeping With The Enemy"? It was dehumanizing. But then, you, Richard, you pulled me out of the life and you gave me hope and you gave me a sense of self-worth. Like Richard Gere did to Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman.

Dinesh: This is weird.

Jared: Every day here has been like that shopping-spree scene. I'm putting on hats.

(Later)

Jared: Richard, I'd understand if you took it, but watching you end up over there would break my heart.

Richard: What, like Julia Roberts from "My Best Friend's Wedding"?

Jared: I never saw it.

I was going to say this; I didn't dislike him but now when I rewatch episodes he's significantly funnier.

Those are awesome, and go back until the beginning. If I'm feeling bored later, I'll try to construct a Jared personal bio.

No doubt. Gave is a much better character now after watching SV.

In a subversive way, I think this show is ultimately going to be revealed as Jared as the protagonist and Jin Yiang as the antagonist - characters there from the very beginning and are actually following a character arc.

Richard is the faux protagonist and Gavin is the faux antagonist - but they just circle each other and reset - there is little-to-no character growth, progression (good or bad), really all they have is the conflict which isn't enough for a true protagonist/antagonist relationship.

Look at the arcs of Jared and Jin Yiang and tell me I'm wrong (although Jin Yiang appears to be out at the moment, we've counted him out before).

I am really enjoying Jared.

I like how Richard found a knife in Jared's desk.
