conulyMy thoughts on that episode can be summed up thusly:
1. That was, indeed, the most comically evil form of bidding in an auction ever. I sure hope they were shooting blanks, otherwise that auction's bound to turn into a riot when somebody loses their favorite henchman.
2. Just now realized that the gang, in addition to being nearly all male, is also amazingly un-diverse racially. Seriously.
3. They sure seemed determined to cram in as many random emotional hits as they could into one episode. Kinda lessens the impact when you run them all into each other like that, though.
4. Yay, they killed off boring jerkass Carter! Maybe they can find some random non-white female character to add to his slot instead. I don't care who, they're bound to be more interesting.
