Favorite part of the episode. The trap door, especially the initial malfunction, and Blake’s hatred of the “silliness”.


Lol. Yea who ever is the actress who plays blake is damn good. When the woman admitted to the plan and started pressing buttons and blake said" what the frick are you doing??" I laughed cause i said the same.

She really sells her reactions..her and regina king.

This series just keeps getting better and better. Hard to believe there are only 2 episodes left.



Is this a limited series or will there be more next year?

I think they have said it’s a one season run mini series but have left the door a bit open to more seasons

Damon said this is his only season head writing it and I think he said if it continues it would be a different storyline/timeline within the universe

I am curious with only 2 episodes left, how they plan on landing the Veidt plot line since it is intended to be a 1 season thing. Seems like we’ve got a long way to go to put him into place to matter to the main plot. Maybe we get a Veidt heavy episode next week?

If the previous posts/guesses are correct, Veidt's scenes have all taken place in the past and he's already landed on Earth (on that Kent farm Lady Trieu bought).

I think that was definitely him and he's back working with Lady Trieu. Very interesting she has that statue of him as an older individual which is what we just recently saw him dressed up as during his court session.

I assume he had been there about 4 years now? With the 3 "anniversary cakes" and then in the court they said they had a 365 day long trial.

instrumental of Bowie's "Life on Mars?" played as we all thought DR.M to be on Mars, but DR.M was living in Tulsa. was better than Devo's space junk

I’m curious to see how they handle the Dr Manhattan flashbacks next episode. Could make or break the show if they go off the rails and don’t make some sort of connection with how the comic ended and his overall apathy for human life

I trust them tho, they’ve killed it. Even when a plot line goes somewhere that makes me go “WTF” it usually turns into something better than I would’ve ever thought in short order

So is Veidt Lady Trieu's father? She says she her father is going to be there. And the Peteypedia article last week mentions a rumor that the Comedian was her father, so people speculated that it could be a masked vigilante.

I'll shite my pants if a Comedian clone walks out of some closet. I don't think she's the right age to have been one of Blake's Vietnamese kids, but you never know with this show.

I think the comedian makes more sense since there is a comic connection to the Vietnam woman he impregnated.

Maybe she’s already got his clone up and ready to go and that’s how we get our comedian in this universe

I know there was a lot of speculation that she would be the daughter of the woman he killed in Vietnam, but that doesn't make as much sense as she knows her mother. The fascination with Veidt makes me think its him.

If they are killing those elephants I will riot.

That was a great episode. Probably my favorite so far. I didnt think it was Cal until she didnt even guess who it might be. Didnt really see that coming.

I was thinking that Blake probably had more than one kid over in Vietnam. If he got her mom pregnant in 70, that would make her 50. I guess that's possible, but the actress looks a lot younger.

I added up the timeline at one point and his kid would be a decent amount older than her I think. But asians never look their age

Veidt has only been missing since 2012 correct? On the other hand, Dr. Manhattan has been missing for ~30 years (how long has he been with Angela Abar? Over 7 I would assume since they moved from Vietnam to the states together).

So it's safe to assume it wasn't Dr. Manhattan who put Veidt on the moon with all the clones. It pretty much had to of been Lady Trieu right?
