kingtycoon | Dance of the Dead

I feel like the clerk at any given store would not notice if you flashed them an ID that had X's marked over it. Just saying - it's for the best that shredding technology has caught up with paper making techniques.

Drowsy #6 is so dopey, he's a miracle of a man.

Lady #2 - she'll get it done no? I trust her, she's crusty-seeming When she laughs it's like there are a dozen cats fighting each other for a ball of yarn. Hilarious to some

Of course these weird functionaries are responsible for matters in the meantime - no use showing a lady doing things. That'd be too silly for this preposterous show about a secret mind-control village.

Funnily enough I have these same electrondes - I bought them to make my ECT hat. I made an ECT hat. I also made a differnt kind of hat- the one that is supposed to help you learn. Whatever, I electrocute my head for a variety of reasons. It's 2015 and I can electrocute my own head if I feel like it. Also, I WILL drill that hole through it - it won't even barely hurt.

You should have a sexy elizabethan lady to bring you breakfast. You and me and everyone - it's especially important that she be smug and enchanting.

Meantime this worried looking andorgyne must go - answers are a prison for oneself! She knows. So much - her cape tells a story that is colored in by her worried eyes. I am reminded that no one with blue eyes has a soul. Nor can they grow one.

That effing cat again. #6 do you not know that a black cat will bring doom? meantime, elizabethan servant girl is commanding my heart so that I am thrilled to go to sleep with the hope that she will be in my dreams. Also. I don't believe TVs work that way.

Now an old lady sailor-maid. She too will be seeing you. This episode probably falls earlier in a more canonical sequence.

Also - There is a bust of Chester A Arthur under the green dome. #6 is all fitful and agitated, but this is a pretty chill episoe overall. You'd think he'd calm down a bit, what with the gypsy/pirate/jet-fighter events of the day before. Y'know - say what you want about mid-air betrayals & unceremonious returns to the village - if you got to go in a jet fighter on your birthday - that would probably be pretty awesome.

The fucking mean balloon - it's a miracle of filmmaking that they are able to cause it to exude menace & danger. It's a balloon & yet, I fear it, you fear it - it's right to fear it.

Anyhow there's a dead guy on the beach, that's regular.

May as well go through his pockets right #6? It's a dead guy right? It's okay to rob him.

Joyless carnival is the order now. Better celebrate in a purely frowny-face perfunctory way! That's the right thing to do. Meantime the elizabethan girl is a sailor maid now! What's up McGoohan! I like her face like crazy but you can tell that she'd be pretty sour if you kissed her and weren't also rich. She don't give a fuck about class struggle.

The miracle of the day is that I cooked dinner and didnt' burn myself up. I am pretty good at being a drunk, but I'm, in the parlance of our times, drunk as fuck. Definitely the right chooice for today but still. I had a warm supper and didn't even hurt myself.

This #2 is pretty much the bossest - she straight up commands guys and doesn't seem to play. She seems like she's in charge of shit.

Really, you should trust the lady who knows if you're a wicked man. She sid he was and he straight up is - wicked & she's mad about hearing questions. Well, questions are a burden to others. I read that somewhere, it's probably true!

Fucking hell with a life preserver in the soundstage cave #6! Do you still want to try and escape? You've been outside and you came rigt back! Get to the bottom of things, solve the puzzle who cares about gtting out now?

Oh fuck you blonde hat girl, you got told! Drove right to school by elizabethan hottasss. Meantime #6 is just desecrating corpses - May As Well! I'm a li'l surprised he doesn't try and build a pontoon boat out f this dead guy. Meantime old-stipe shirt is mad about all the necromancy going on - go back into your sound stage cave withered old man!

Western gambler tuxedo & peter pan old lady - there's really no better costume party scenario. I bet this lady is super good at figure skating.

I like to imagine the earliest versions of The Village - do you htink it goes back to the Napoleonic wars? Before? I bet the 7 Years War, that's my guess - it's got age-of-enlightenment all over it.

I like everything that's going on in this episode but I don't care at all about Roland Walter Dutton. If an old lady dressed as peter pan kills Roland Walter Duttn that's fine with me. Even if it is in a sci-fi movie set with clashing colored wall sconces.

Meantime - #6 is skipping the party to sneak around HQ- that's smart. Have you ever gone to a party and gone through the medicine cabinets? You've got to investigate, that's just how it is - sometimes people have a medicine cabinet with a lock & key - have you seen that? That is how you know for sure you cna't make out with a lady - if her medicines have to be locked away.

Now Peter Pan lady is in Cpt. Krik's chair! Awesome & great. 3 judges and references to the Terror! I love this show I do. The Terror! Is there something to the judges here? Elizabeth I, Bonaparte - or some solider of his era & a roman of some kind - maybe Augustus? Do you htink it meansa thing - and Peter pan, an old lady? Is this a matter of evocative symbolism or just using up the props & costumes that the BBC had on hand? This is the question that you find yourself asking over and over again.

This 3rd act revelation of 'the rules' seems kind of tacked on - you cant' tell what's up with The Village - generally, it's supposed to turn on a dime & make you feel uncertain & confused, sure - but the sudden invocation of 'the rules' is kind of jarring from the audience perspective. Plus - are they really gonna kill #6? I feel like no. Maybe it's jsut a matter of making him feel endangered? Like making it seem like he'll die is part of the whole story. Anyhow I am totally in love with old-lady peter pan #2. I bet she bites you hard when you kiss her, in a way that makes you feel like you will bleed. Not a sexy kind of toothy bite, but a terrifying endangering bite. I bet she looks at you with her eyes wide open as she kisses you. I bet she only has sex with the lights on and laughs while doing math problems for fun.

Surreptitious Ending! Episode Over!
