1) I really don’t know what to think of Willa…
She seems to be… off, somehow. And not in an “I was kidnapped when I was a young girl, brought into a cult, and robbed of all my memories” kind of way. She surely seems eager to take on the heir crown, and Wynonna is not too happy about that… Neither am I.
I don’t know. She seems to be a wild card, and I’d hate for her to act impulsively and get one of the girls hurt because of it.
There’s also the fact that she just killed off this dude after he basically claimed that before Wynonna showed up in town, the revenants had felt “the surge” or whatever, and if I got that correctly, it meant that the revenants can feel it in their guts when the heir is dead. So what does that say about Willa? Is she dead? Did she die? Is that why Wynonna was activated on her birthday?
2) Oh, damn, now she’s snapping at Nicole and that’s not going to fly with me…
3) I get that Wynonna is kind of miffed at Doc for skipping town without as much as saying goodbye, but there’s something fundamentally wrong about Dolls being the one defending Doc and Wynonna the one blaming him.
4) Well, tell that to your face, honey…
5) WTF
Lady, what are you doing?! Skinning yourself?!
6) This felt like a Buffy moment…
7) Yes, I’m into this.
8) If this isn’t a meme, it should be…
9) Why did Waverly bring up the beam thing? I don’t know what it has to do with Willa finding out she’s a gay and that Wynonna doesn’t know about it. And why would you hold a grudge against your sister for something siblings are want to do? Yes, it was dangerous and mean, but that’s what big sisters do to their little ones. I’m sure Willa didn’t intend for Waverly to get hurt, she just wanted to torture her little sister a bit.
10) “Welcome aboard the Earp Express. Enjoy your trip to Hell.” Damn, she really loves those one-liners…
And now the gun is not working? Does that mean that it got somehow linked to Willa after she fired it and now it doesn’t recognize Wynonna as the heir? What is going on?
11) This definitely feels like a declaration of love…
DOLLS: You know, when I first met you, girl, you were a mess.
WYNONNA: Hey!
DOLLS: What?
WYNONNA: "Hot." I prefer "hot" mess.
DOLLS: Now I wouldn't want to fight with anyone else by my side.
I’ve been unfortunately spoiled, and now I know that these two get together at some point. But damn, my heart is still set on Wynonna and Doc…
12) What’s Bobo’s deal with Waverly and Willa?
13) DON’T YOU DARE LAY A FINGER ON DOC!!!
14) Why is Bobo interested in keeping Doc away from everyone? And this Bubba bitch better give Doc his hat back…
15) The whole town has been invited to a Bobo Del Rey’s party…? That should end well…
16) WTF is this episode?!
17) That’s the Stone Witch, isn’t it?
Oh, she’s the one who erased her memory.
18) It seems Bobo was taking care of her? And now she’s remembered… does that mean she’s going to take his side?
19) This isn’t a surprise…
But I still don’t get what the girl’s dad was getting out of this deal? Protection for Willa?
20) Now, that’s the Doc I know and love…
21) So, yeah, the girl’s dad was trying to get all of them free of the curse and that’s why he was helping Bobo cross over. But what about that letter…?
22) The letter is the freaking “lead” and I still have no clue what that means.
23) Willa seems a bit too cheerful for comfort. I just don’t trust her for some reason.
24) And now Wynonna is giving her the gun and it seems like the worst plan ever, and I can tell Waverly feels the same way.
25) What’s the fucking letter about?! They keep teasing us!!
26) Damn does she look good in red…
27) Okay, answers at last…
WYNONNA: The letter's our great-great-granddaddy's. Dated years after he was cursed.
WAVERLY: And he confides everything. How he was cursed when he killed the demon Clootie, how the Ghost River Triangle holds all revenants.
WYNONNA: They have to cross over with the Earp heir and the heir has to go willingly on the Winter Solstice.
Willa is going to do it, right? She’s going to willingly help Bobo cross over…
28) Yeah, Willa does not feel like the real heir, though.
29) Nicole doesn’t mess around…
Bless her. So did they lace the drinks, is that it?
30) Oh, Wynonna…
WYNONNA: Whatever our connection was that gun's clearly made its choice.
DOLLS: Hey look, doesn't matter, okay?
WYNONNA: Except I go back to being plain ole human. No offense. I just I never wanted this, but after a while I just felt I just felt like it fit. Like I was meant to be. But I'm not I'm not special. I'm just some girl.
I really like this, and it reminds me of Buffy in the best possible way. Wynonna was at a bad place when she became the heir, and she certainly didn’t want the responsibility or the hassle that carrying Peacemaker entailed. But she found out that she was good at it, and that it gave her life a purpose, and now she can’t imagine being anything else than the heir. I’m positive this whole “Willa is the heir” will be a hiccup and Wynonna will be back to kicking ass in no time.
31) …
I literally went from this…
…to this…
My heart just broke. A lot.
32) So Bobo’s got the antidote and that’s how he’s going to get Willa to cross over with him willingly, right?
33) He asked for Wynonna, doesn’t he know? And now all these rabid townies are trying to go after her…
34) Why is every single moment between these two hot as fuck?
35) I KNEW IT!!!
36) I’m really excited to see what happens in the season finale, I have a feeling it’s going to be epic!
