Stray thoughts
1) Bobo really has a thing for Waverly, and it’s creepy as fuck…
Waverly claimed she couldn’t wait for Wynonna to shoot him in the face, but to be frank, I really hope Bobo’s final confrontation is with Waverly instead of Wynonna. There’s so much history between them, and I feel Waverly would gain both a sense of accomplishment and some closure if she’s the one to put him down. I wonder if that’s possible, though…
Also, what’s Bobo’s plan here? Other than piss the Earps off, of course.
2) Dolls put a bug at the bar, and this is the first thing they here…
Bobo: Those Earp girls may be bangable, but they're a boil on my scrotum.
…which makes me feel super creeped out about the fact that Bobo struck up a friendship with little Waverly. Pedophile much?
3) Who the fuck was this girl, what was that mark on her face, and why was she eaten by a wolf?!
So many questions!
4) Evidence that the revenants are bisexual. Boom.
WAVERLY: They're talking about Dolls, guys! They're speculating that your penis is small!
5) I’m glad Wynonna and co were as confused as I was about Bobo buying the bar. Their assumption is that he did it to protect the revenants, given that Wynonna is not likely to kill them off in front of the bar patrons. I guess? I mean, it’s not like Wynonna hasn’t shot revenants in front of humans before… And as BTVS has taught us, no matter how weird what people witness is, they will always try to find a logical explanation to put it off their minds. So, I think getting rid of Bobo warrants a few scarred-for-life patrons…
6) So… the girl bore this Lou’s mark, who is Bobo’s number one enemy, apparently. They seem to have made some sort of pact and Lou was not supposed to cross into Bobo’s territory. And I think Lou was the wolf?
7) Uh-oh…
Bobo found the bug. That doesn’t bode well…
8)
9) There’s absolutely NO way Wynonna didn’t see that…
10) Wait, wasn’t Whiskey Jim being tortured for information by Dolls? How did he end up in Bobo’s hands?
11) How are these two so soft and sweet and badass at the same time? My heart cannot take it…
12) I really liked how the confrontation between Wynonna and Dolls played out. At first, I thought she was honestly being vulnerable and purposefully giving him the flirty eyes and leading him on, which she has sort of been doing, and that seemed unfair to me. But she was just using his attraction to her against him in order to handcuff him to the car and find out what he was hiding.
13) So we can’t really trust anything Jim tells Wynonna and Dolls, considering Bobo instructed him to provide them with certain information. But I think there must be some truth to what he told them. There’s definitely some blood between Bobo and Lou, but I wonder if it’s really because Lou tried to overthrow Bobo. And I do have a feeling that he might be much worse than Bobo. But I’m guessing they’re not going to find them in Pine Barrens, like Jim told them…
14) This is actually some good advice…
WYNONNA: Those things are cockroaches to me.
DOLLS: Don't do that. Do not do that. I saw your eyes back there. They were cold and callous. Don't get all hard and forget that you're human. That you are you.
WYNONNA: I won't.
DOLLS: Just remember, revenants will say anything with a ticket to Hell pressed to their forehead.
15) In this episode of Man vs Car…
I love that he’s so perplexed by this gift and Wynonna’s gesture that the best use to make of it he can think of is smashing it to bits until Waverly suggests he could learn how to drive.
16) Woods 101? Always stick with your group. Amateurs…
17) Why does Wynonna always wake up in the weirdest places?
18) Is this Lou? And is he the leader of some kind of wolf cult or something?
19) Sounds accurate…
CULT GIRL: How can you tell the good from the bad?
WYNONNA: Um the good ones are usually scared. But they push past the fear, you know? And they do what's right, even when it hurts. Even when every instinct is telling them to do nothing, to survive. And the good ones are hotter.
20) Oh, I feel sorry for the cult girl, she was kind of sweet.
21) Of course, they’re caught…
22) Well, he does seem to know Bobo pretty well…
LOU: Bobo. That narcissist finally figure out that his stupid fur coat won't protect him?
23) So, the “mark” means that you’re no longer welcome in this “community.” Well, mark me down…
24) The rogue animals are coming after Wynonna, right?
WAVERLY: Every single girl on this list? Found dead, scattered around the Ghost River Triangle. Autopsies say that they were toyed with and then killed by animals that had gone rogue.
WYNONNA: Rabies?
WAVERLY: No. Just torture. Like, every single bone in their body broken, their skin licked off.
WYNONNA: This is why I don't do pets.
25) I knew that he’d be craving this after a night out in the woods…
But what the fuck is it?!
26) Wait…
Was this just a camera trick? Or is it something that he can actually do when he’s under the influence of whatever he’s been jacking up on?
27) He’s the cutest…
But was he trying to run off or something?
28) He was trying to run away. Because he doesn’t think Wynonna feels the same way as he does…
DOC: I have vanquished my enemy. I have taken her horse. I am finished here, Waverly.
WAVERLY: This was your plan the whole time.
DOC: No, this was your plan. You told me to learn to drive.
WAVERLY: I didn't mean leave Purgatory without a word!
DOC: I do hate goodbyes.
WAVERLY: Look, we need you, okay? She needs you.
DOC: She has Dolls.
WAVERLY: Can't you at least try? I mean, I'm trying with Nicole.
DOC: Difference is, she adores you back.
But I wish Waverly asking him would’ve been enough for him to decide to stay, you know? Not that I think he’s gone. God, I hope he’s not gone!
29) Wynonna’s message about what makes a person a “good one” really got through to Eve, and I love that. But… it seems a bit unrealistic that a girl who’s been part of a cult for who knows how long would turn against her leader after having a few words with an outsider, you know? I know they didn’t have enough time in one episode for them to actually develop a bond, but it would’ve been more effective if we would’ve seen them establish a connection and how Wynonna was helping her demolish the walls in her mind.
30) So, Lou is a skinwalker. I’m guessing that’s another way of saying shapeshifter?
31) In case I haven’t said it, I’m in love with Wynonna…
32)
33) hOW THE FUCK WAS EVE ABLE TO SHOOT THE GUN?!
34) IS SHE FUCKING WILLA??!!!
DOLLS: She didn't remember anything - since Lou found her, huh?
WYNONNA: Yeah.
DOLLS: Prolonged psychological trauma can cause amnesia. She may have been brainwashed. Or she's lying.
WYNONNA: She's not lying. We thought she was dead.
DOLLS: Wynonna…
WYNONNA: We gave up. We stopped looking for her.
DOLLS: Wynonna. We don't know anything for sure. There could be 1000 reasons why Peacemaker worked in her hand, you hear me?
WYNONNA: Or there's one.
34) IT IS!!!????
36) Okay, I was not expecting that plot twist? To be honest, half-way through the episode I was feeling like it was a meh episode. Some fun moments here and there but I really didn’t see the point in this plot so far into the season. But now it all makes sense! There are two living heirs! It’s a great twist on the “chosen” mythology. I just assumed that the mythology in this show was similar to the one in BTVS, by which an Heir could only be called at the age of 27 when the previous one had already died… but this changes everything! This means that as long as they turn 27, they can all be heirs. Could this mean that Waverly could be an heir at some point? That would mean she can actually be the one to kill Bobo off! I also have so many questions about Willa. Does Wynonna’s father’s relationship with Bobo have something to do with the fact that she was taken? Did their father hand her over to them? Was she the reason Lou left town? Did the girls’ father and Bobo team up against Lou and Willa was one of the sacrifices they had to make? SO. MANY. QUESTIONS!
