  1. If LS is in season 6 for more than just the finale, they might as well have thrown her in for this finale.

     

    What I'd do:

    Obviously I would have had her appear in the season 4 finale hanging Freys.

    Season 5:

    Everyone talks about the Brotherhood's new leader as in the books. 

    Brienne and Pod find hanged Freys and comment on them.

    Gendry joins them to help look for his former BFF.

    Episode 4 they are captured by the Brotherhood. First look at LS this season. Conflicting emotions in the reunion between Brienne/Cat and Gendry/Brotherhood.

    Episode 6 LS tells Brienne to kill Jaime. Hanging scene, then Brienne agrees

    Episode 8 No Stoneheart, but Brienne meets Jaime as he arrives back from Dorne

    Episode 10 WINDS OF WINTER SPOILERS Whatever happens in Book 6. Red Wedding 2.0 set up? 

     

    That's 3 Stoneheart episodes, which is what Theon got this season.

  2. Since Filmgasm is gone, I guess this is where I'll post my thoughts. I liked the episode overall.The Good:

    -The Hound/Arya/Brienne/Pod-Dany-Bran gets interesting, even though I thought the CGI was a bit below the show's standard-Tyrion and Tywin-Jon and the Wildlings-A Mountain confirmation-Varys getting on the boat!!! My favorite moment in the episode.

    The Bad (Book Spoilers included):

    -The complete lack of suspense when it come to Tyrion's fate-No cheers for Stannis-No Tysha talk-No Lady Stoneheart!!!!I thought everything about Tyrion's plot was rushed in this episode. Even if they wanted to cut Tysha, I would have preferred some half-assed reasoning for Tyrion and Jaime to part on bad terms. How about Jaime helped bring Shae back to King's Landing, not knowing what this would mean for Tyrion. As he tries to explain himself, Tyrion shuts him down and we end up with a similar scene from the book. Just me spitballing.

  3. I've got three films I'm going to TRY to post next year. King and Country, my Six Hours in Hell movie (I don't know how this isn't a real movie), and another project under wraps for now. There is also a strong possibility none of these films ever see the light of day.

  4. anyone else here completely up to date on the comics? I am, and I'll just say that while my biggest problem with the show is that they veer off the comic plot for no reason into absurd territory, I hope they veer off after this upcoming storyline. They need to milk the prison arc for as long as possible because it's all downhill after that.

    PREVIOUSLY ON THE MORROW…

    Germany discovered a new planet, and on it a new insanely valuable resource known as lyrium. They realize lyrium’s power is unbeatable. Power thirsty, they devise a plan to take over Earth and be a universal leader. Russia, knowing they can’t compete, join Germany. No one else knows of this plan. In fact, many Americans are living on Germany’s found planet and working for the big bads. These people were all promised land and freedom on this new planet. Unfortunately for them, once Germany has finished their lyirum mining and research and polished their plans, they slaughter the American work camp and start the war. A small team of American soldiers led by Dalton Connors (James McAvoy) and Hopper Gordon (Karl Urban) manage to save a small group of survivors from the camp (known as Camp Morgen) and call in a nuclear strike to wipe out the Germans. The nukes drop and Morgen is destroyed, along with a large portion of Germany’s lyrium supply. It was a great win for the Americans, and a giant set back for Germany, but the German forces still had some lyrium and the upper hand in this war of two worlds.

    Time to silence your cell phones. The show starts now.

    Anton Klein dons a white coat as he struts through a lab. Guards with guns fill every corner, but it seems all the scientists were used to this nuisance by now. Anton enters his office where a woman was waiting for him. Young and stunningly gorgeous, this was Katherine Schmidt. “Kate, what’re you doing in here?” Anton asks, shutting his office door. “Just came to talk,” she says with a smile, kissing him on the lips. Anton looks uneasy, and pulls away slightly. “We can stop if you don’t want to keep doing this,” Kate says. Anton looks at her and sighs. “No. I like this. I like us. Things are just complicated right now. I’ll have this all sorted out soon,” Anton assures her. Kate gives a slight smile and nods. “Ok. So…dinner tonight?” she asks. “I wish I could, but Tori’s getting frustrated about me working late so often,” Anton replies. The name Tori brings some tension in the air. “Ok. Maybe some other time,” Kate says, visibly disappointed. Anton feels bad and is going to say something when he looks at the time. “Sh**. The meeting,” he says as they race out of his office.

    Anton, Kate, and three other scientists stand before a military looking man who is looking through some paperwork. He’s shaking his head in disappointed. “When you said you knew how to harness the lyrium, I thought you had something a bit…bigger in mind,” the heavy says. “Sir, we can harness the power of the lyrium. But I, nor anyone else in this lab, is willing to create the type of device you’re wanting. You think we don’t know what’s going on in Morgen? It’s wrong what you’re doing to those people,” Anton replies. The heavy lets out a small laugh then stands up and walks over to one of the other scientists. “You. Can you build me what I want?” the heavy asks. “Yes sir,” the scientist replies nervously. The heavy smiles and turns to Anton. “See. You hold your staff to too high a standard,” the heavy snickers. “But…” the scientist adds. The heavy sighs and turns back to the scientist. “But what?” he asks. “But I would need Dr. Klein’s help. He cracked the codes. He wrote the codes. So when you ask if I can build what you’re looking for, the answer is yes. But without Dr. Klein that’s like comparing an atom bomb to a hand grenade,” the scientist replies. This dampers the heavy’s cool slightly, but he maintains his composure and turns back to Anton. “Don’t forget who brought you here. We brought you here for a reason. To get the job done. We put a roof over your family’s head. Food on your table. Money in your pockets. And how do you repay us? By spitting in our faces? Well I must inform you that that’s not the way things work. We will get what we want. And if you’re the man who has to give it to us….well I’d give it to us willingly,” the heavy says. Anton nods his head, at a loss. “Ok great! So we’re at an understanding! You will give us our weapon. History books look back fondly on you as the man who helped bring our nation to not just world, but universal power,” the heavy says. “History books will look back on me as the man responsible for the death of billions,” Anton retorts. “It’s all in who’s doing the writing, Dr. Klein,” the heavy starts. “Now, I’ll have the lyrium from Morgen sent here so you can create this wonderful weapon.” And suddenly a thud fills the ears of everyone and it’s literally deafening. So loud that after the initial noise all audio ceases and everyone clutches their ears and look around in panic. And then a giant shockwave hits the lab, smashing out windows and destroying beakers, computers, and various other lab equipment. Everyone inside is knocked off their feet as paper and shards of glass fly across the room. After a few moments the chaos stops and there’s a loud ringing muffling all the sound. The camera focuses on Anton as he pulls himself onto all fours, the wind knocked out of him. We see the heavy out of focus behind him, standing up and stumbling, then pulling out his radio. Through the ringing we hear his very muffled voice. “What the hell happened!?! What happened to Morgen!?!”

    THE MORROW II

    Anton races into his house to find a complete mess. Windows shattered, furniture overturned, random items everywhere. He steps over the mess as he calls out to his family. “Victoria? Alice? John?” he calls out. He hears noises from down the hall and races toward them. He flings open a door to find his family crouched on the floor. John, Anton’s nine year old son, races over to his father. Anton embraces him tightly. “Are you ok?” he asks. “Yes sir,” John replies. Anton then hugs Alice, his eighteen year old daughter. “I’m so happy you’re all ok,” Anton says, then turns to Tori, his wife. No hug for her. We can sense some tension between them, but it’s not exactly the first thing on their minds after what just happened. Speaking of that… “What just happened?” Tori asks. “Camp Morgen. The Americans came and nuked it,” Anton replies. Tori mouths “oh my god” in shock. Suddenly, footsteps are heard running in the house towards them. Anton turns, nervous, but someone they recognize enters the room. Claude Sydow, Alice’s German soldier boyfriend. He and Alice embrace. “I came as soon as I knew it was safe,” Claude says. “You’re so brave for coming here,“ Alice says, kissing him. Anton and Tori watch their daughter, young, naïve, and in love. Claude’s radio then goes off. He backs away from Alice and steps into the hallway to listen. He comes back in after a few moments and tells them he has to go, but assures Alice he’d be back soon, then tugs his ear, a sign for “I love you.”

    As Alice watches John play in the backyard, Anton and Tori are inside cleaning up. As the danger seems to decrease, tension between them is filling the void. “How’s Kate?” Tori asks. This stings Anton a bit, but he sighs it off. “Please don’t. Not right now. We’ll deal with that later,” Anton replies. “You always say that. Always trying to prolong the inevitable. Anton, I can’t take this anymore,” Tori says. “Tori, I love you. You know I didn’t mean for things to get this way. I understand it if you hate me, and I’d love nothing more than for us to sit down and hash out our problems, but we just almost died. Now can we shut the f**k up and get back to cleaning?!” Anton exclaims. We can tell he has remorse for his relationship with Kate, but he was so stressed right now he couldn’t help but explode. Alice and John heard him shout and we see them staring at their parents from outside, through the windows. Anton takes a deep breath and looks outside at his kids, instantly regretting his rage. And then the doorbell rings. “I’ll get it,” he says quietly to Tori, then walks off to answer the door.

    Anton opens the front door to reveal a German soldier named Hans Reinhardt standing on his front porch, Claude looking nervous behind him. “Are you Doctor Anton Klein?” Hans asks. “Yes. What’s going on?” Anton asks. “Sir, I’m going to need you and your family to come with me,” Hans states, a bit forceful. Anton looks at Claude, who wipes sweat from his brow. “Doctor Klein?” Hans continues. Anton sighs and slams the door in Hans’ face.

    Hans walks away, trying to play off his embarrassment. Claude following close behind him. Hans reaches his van and pulls out a radio. “This is Captain Reinhardt, requesting the fuehrer,” Hans says, then waits a few moments. “What,” comes the simple reply of an older sounding, distinguished man. “Dr. Klein refused to go with us. Do I have permission to use force?” Hans asks. Behind him, Claude is starting to pace, obviously fearing for his girlfriend. “Captain, do not forget your place and the task at hand. That family for yours. That was the deal. Use force if you have to. Just get Klein to me. Don’t forget I know how to use force as well,” the fuehrer replies. Hans gulps. We finally see this hard ass German breaking a sweat. “Klein will be yours, mein fuehrer Drescher,” Hans says. “Good. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a funeral to attend,” the fuehrer states. Hans looks to Claude, then switches frequencies on the radio. “This is Captain Reinhardt. I’m going to need all units in Brentwood.”

    Ding Dong. Anton is frustrated as he opens his front door again. Hans and Claude stand there again, Hans looking more determined this time. “Doctor Klein, this area isn’t safe,” Hans says. “Curious. You didn’t mention that before,” Anton replies. “Dr. Klein, you and your family must come with us,” Hans firmly states. “Make us,” Anton retorts. “With pleasure,” Hans says with a smile. Suddenly six German soldiers step out from both sides and enter the house. “No! What do you think you’re doing!?” Anton exclaims as the soldiers grab his family. “Let them go!” Anton screams, swinging at them. Alice screams as a soldier lifts her up. Claude pushes the soldier away and grabs her hand. “It’ll be ok,” he assures her. Meanwhile, Tori is clutching John tightly in her arms as two soldiers try to pry him from her arms. John is screaming at the top of his lungs, crying. Tori is crying to as she holds on for dear life. Anton charges at the soldier trying to take John, punching the soldier repeatedly in the face. Other soldiers throw Anton to the ground. John is eventually pried free from his mother and hauled off. His screams still echoing throughout the house. Anton reaches out to Tori, but he can’t get to her in time as the soldiers drag her across the floor and out of the house. Hans stands over Anton and sucker punches him right in the jaw. Anton collapses to the floor, spitting up blood. Two soldiers come in and grab him, one at his torso, the other grabbing his legs. Hans follows them out of the house. Outside, Anton’s head bobs around. He’s barely conscious, but he can see that every house in the neighborhood had soldiers dragging families into vans. And then the soldiers throw him into his family’s van, slamming the door shut. A soldier goes to take the driver’s seat, but Claude yells for him to wait, then turns to Hans. “Let me drive this one. I want the responsibility,” Claude says. Hans looks to him, then nods. Claude hides his happiness, then gets in the driver’s seat. Hans gets into one of the German soldiers’ armored jeeps, and with that the entire unit takes off.

    (NOTE: This paragraph depicts a scene with no edits or cutaways. The camera is bolted down and focused on Anton, never once moving in this entire long shot.) Anton has fully regained consciousness now as he sits quietly in his seat in the van. His hands and feet are chained to the floor, removing his ability to go and comfort his family. He’s barely listening as Claude tries to comfort them from the driver’s seat. “I’m so sorry about all of this. You really should have come cordially, Dr. Klein. But I promise they won’t hurt any of you. You’re too important. Dr. Klein, you’re the most important man in the universe,” Claude says. Anton is just staring at his feet. We can see outside the window that a group of vehicles are speeding toward them across the desert landscape. One speeds forward in front of the others, a giant truck, and we watch as it gets closer and closer. Anton finally looks up and notices it right as it slams into their van. The van goes flying through the air, flipping multiple times before finally coming to a stop on it’s side. (The camera still bolted down facing Anton and out the window. It’s now technically on the ground facing up toward the sky. Anton is hanging over it by his seatbelt.) Anton groans in pain, the left side of his face cut up and bleeding. He can move his hands and feet, realizing the chain had broken. “Is everyone ok?” he asks, trying to turn around and look behind him. He can hear John crying, but no other reply. Anton curses and unbuckles his seatbelt, causing him to fall onto the camera. He then pulls himself painfully up and out of the broken window and disappears from view.

    (Long shot ends) Anton is out of the destroyed van, looking around. The totaled truck sits firmly up ahead. The doors open and two soldiers (definitely not German) step out. These were British soldiers. Their names were Rudy Bishop and Toby Coleman. The other carrier vans had stopped at the wreckage. The German drivers were pulled from their seats at gunpoint by the two dozen British soldiers who had arrived. The German armored jeeps were making their way toward the wreckage, opening fire. Bishop and Toby race over to Anton. “You’re safe with us,” Bishop says, going to the totaled van and pulling out the Klein family. Tori was unconscious, but alive. John was a little cut up, but overall ok. Alice comes out of the van screaming, but we quickly realize it wasn’t from pain. She races up to the driver’s seat, where a bloodied Claude was strapped in, not moving. Anton was sitting on the ground holding his unconscious wife as he looks up to his daughter. “What’s going on here?” Bishop asks. “Her boyfriend,” Anton replies. Bishop curses and moves Alice out of the way, checking Claude’s pulse. “It’s faint, but he’s still with us,” he says. And then gunfire erupts behind them. The German jeeps had arrived and began to open fire. “Ok, time to go. Toby, get our van!” Bishop says. Toby races off and hops into a van, then backs up to Bishop and the Kleins. Bishop throws open the backdoors. “Alright, everybody in,” Bishop says. “Where are you taking us?” Anton asks. “Away from here. Just trust me. I’ll explain everything later,” Bishop says. Anton nods, having no other choice, and lifts Tori up and gets in the van. Bishop picks up John and hands him to Anton. Bishop then turns to Alice. “I’m not leaving him,” Alice says. “There’s nothing we can do for him. If he stays here his people can get him help. Now get in the van,” Bishop says. “If he stays, I stay,” Alice says. “Alice, get in the van,” Anton calls to his daughter. And then the van is riddled with bullets. Anton, John, and Tori hug the floor to escape their path. Bishop has to tackle Alice to get her out of the way. “Alice! Get in the god damn van!” Anton exclaims. Bishop picks up Alice and throws her inside the van. “Alright, Toby! Move out!” Bishop yells, slamming the doors shut. Toby takes off as Bishop pulls out his rifle and goes to find cover with the rest of his team. Hans works a turret on top of his jeep, mowing down anyone not fortunate enough to have solid cover. He then turns to see a van driving off, knowing it must be the Kleins. “Everyone! Follow that van!” Hans exclaims. “Sir, we’ve got wounded!” someone calls to him. “Well put a bullet in them or leave them behind,” Hans replies. And with that the entire German force takes off. Bishop gets out from behind cover and calls to his men. “Alright let’s move!” he yells. Half his team get into their armored trucks and take off in pursuit, opening fire with their own turrets. The other half stay behind and help the rest of the German civilians into vans. We watch as Bishop helps three people, including Kate, into a van and then gets into the driver’s seat. But then he stops and curses. He gets out and opens up the back doors again, then hurries back to the Klein’s van and pulls Claude out, taking the injured German soldier with him. And with that, Bishop closes up the back doors, reenters the driver’s seat, and takes off.

    Toby drives the Klein’s van as fast as it will go. Behind them, the German troops were quickly gaining on them. “Where are we going?” Anton asks. “Off this planet. We’ve got a ship ready to send carriers to pick us up at the old Camp Morgen. We own the sky there now,” Toby replies. “You think we can make it that far?” Anton asks. “Do you have any better ideas?” Toby asks. “As a matter of fact,” Anton begins.

    From Bishop’s van we see Toby veering left. The German vehicles follow suit, with the British fleet close behind. “Where is he going?” Bishop asks himself as Toby steers off course. The Germans had now gotten close enough to Toby to open fire. The British trucks move forward, also opening fire on the enemy. A British truck slams into the back of a German jeep, causing it to spin out. At this speed, the jeep loses traction, flipping over and barrel rolling into all the British vehicles behind it. The cars swerve out the way. The jeep keeps flipping and Bishop tugs on the wheel hard, narrowly missing the hunk of metal.

    In Toby’s van, all the windows had been shot out. The entire Klein family were as low as they could get to avoid getting struck by the never ending rain of bullets. “There’s a tunnel up ahead. It leads to a mine, but you can ride it out to the other side. It’ll slow them down,” Anton calls to Toby. Toby nods his head and continues forward, seeing the tunnel. “Hang on! This is going to be a tight fit!” he calls to the Kleins. The van squeezes into the tunnel, speeding down the tight fit. The German jeeps have to slow down and form a line to enter the tunnel. Bishop watches from the rear of the pack as Hans’ jeep breaks off from the others and speeds alongside the tunnel. As the German jeeps all fit into the tunnel, the British trucks storm in behind them. Bishop doesn’t follow suit, instead deciding to pursue Hans. Hans sits up in the turret and pulls out a rocket launcher, taking aim at the tunnel. Bishop speeds forward and slams into the German jeep just as Hans fires, causing him to jerk and fire the rocket behind his target. Where the rocket hits, the tunnel begins to collapse. Inside the tunnel we see the British trucks and jeeps in the back of the pack panicking as the tunnel is collapsing behind them. It eventually overtakes them, drowning them in rubble. In the front, Toby can hear the commotion. Eventually he can see the tunnel coming down behind him. He’s desperately looking for the exit now as the rubble gets closer and closer, taking out more and more vehicles. And then exit comes into sight, sunlight pouring in. Toby’s getting so close now as the rubble quickly begins catching up. It crashes down on the German jeep behind them then crashes down on the back of Toby’s van just as it soars out of the tunnel and into safety. Toby continues driving, breathing heavily. He had done it. Bishop drives his van alongside Toby’s. They were all that was left.

    The two vans pull to a stop beside a small fenced off area which looks to be surrounding nothing. Toby and the Klein family exit their van. Bishop hops out of his van and goes around the back to open the doors. When he opens the doors he’s facing the end of a pistol, pointing directly between his eyes. Claude’s shaky hands holding it. Bishop smiles. “Good, you’re awake. And you can still hold a gun,” he says. Alice sees Claude and races over to him, embracing him and putting him at ease. Bishop heaves Claude from the van and rests him against the fence. Meanwhile, the two newbies randomly saved by Bishop, scientists Benji and Tom, exit the van. Anton recognizes them and greets them with a smile. Then Kate exit’s the van and his smile fades away. Victoria eyes Kate, then Anton, the situation instantly growing unpleasant. “So where are we?” Bishop asks, snapping Anton back into reality. “It seemed to me that your plan was to drive all the way to Camp Morgen. Out in the open like this? Too risky,” Anton starts. “So how do you get out of out in the open?” Bishop asks. “You go under it,” Anton replies, turning to the fence and typing in a code to open the lock. Inside the small enclosed area he wipes some dirt from the ground to reveal a metal panel. On that panel he types in another code which causes the ground to part and reveal a ladder leading down into the darkness. “This used to be a lyrium research lab. It has a track that leads almost all the way to Morgen,” Anton explains. Bishop looks down into the darkness, then back up at Anton pondering this plan.

    Hans and his men are tearing up the dirt as their armored jeeps chase after the two British vans. The soldier working the turret in Hans’ jeep opens fire, blowing out a tire on one of the vans and causing it to flip. It crashes into the other van, taking it out. The German convoy stops. Hans hurries over to the wreckage, gun in hand. He flings open the driver’s door to find the van empty. He curses as his men check the other van. Also empty. Hans looks down at the gas pedal tied to the floor, causing the van to drive itself. He turns and gets back in his jeep and takes out a picture of his family. He’s about to get emotional when he catches himself and puts the picture away. He takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself, but then loses it, punching the dashboard repeatedly in a fit of rage. The driver takes his seat and looks at Hans awkwardly. Hans stops his punching and smoothes down his messed up hair. “Drive,” he says quietly. The driver didn’t know where exactly to drive to, but he knew better than question Hans in this moment so he just drives straight.

    Bishop leads his group down into the underground lab. Anton points the way to what’s basically a subway station. Four carts sit on the track, each one is self propelled. Bishop turns to Toby. “Hook up the first two carts and make sure they’re both charged up,” Bishop tells him. Toby goes off to do his job. “This leads straight to Morgen?” Bishop asks, making sure. “It stops just two miles short. It’s a quicker ride and we’re not out in the open,” Anton replies. Bishop nods. So far not regretting his decision to go along with Anton’s plan. Toby comes back over to them and says they’re all set. Time to load up. Everyone piles into the carts.

    Bishop, Kate, and the scientists Benji and Tom sit in the front cart which is speeding down the track. In the second cart, Anton and Victoria sat across from each other. Their body language speaks wonders of what their relationship had become. Instead of sitting next to his wife and comforting her he was sitting across from her, looking at her with eyes filled with regret. Victoria wouldn’t even look at Anton, instead she was focused on comforting John. Anton’s eyes switch over to a sleeping Alice. Claude was laying across the seats with his head in her lap, unconscious. Toby is wrapping Claude’s wounds and trying to stop the bleeding. After a while he gets up. Anton looks at him and Toby just gives a solemn shake of the head, then heads back to the front cart. Anton’s gaze returns to Victoria. He just watches her, waiting, hoping she’d look back up at him. But she keeps her head down. And then Anton breaks the silence. “I love you,” he says. She keeps looking down, not saying a word. Anton sighs and lowers his head in defeat. He doesn’t notice, but Victoria looks up at him for a small moment. Tears in her eyes. But then she lowers her head again. In the front cart, Kate is sitting all the way in the back, by herself. Through the window she can see the rift in between Anton and Victoria. Now even she is starting to cry, knowing she caused this. With the Klein family in chaos, the two carts keep chugging along.

    The carts pull to a stop. They had reached the end of the track. Anton goes to the front cart. “So this is it?” Bishop asks. Anton nods. Bishop pulls out his radio and says, “UM this is Captain Rudy Bishop of the British Allegiance. We have the package and are ready for pickup two miles east of Camp Morgen.” He waits for a reply that doesn’t come. “UM?” he asks again, then checks the radio. “No signal. Must be because we’re underground,” he says. “Then let’s get to the surface. I’m due for some sunlight,” Benji says, sliding open the cart’s doors. Right when he opens the door a bullet whizzes through the air and slices right through his forehead. Benji’s body topples to the ground, as does everyone else, form fear of getting hit. Bishop curses and crawls across the floor, sliding the door shut again. “I think they found us,” he says.

    Above the surface we see a convoy of six German armored jeeps. The doors to the lab slide open and the snipers crawl out. “They’re here,” one of the snipers says. Hans hops out of his jeep and turns to his men. “There’s no more ‘bringing Anton Klein in alive.’ That mother f***er dies right now,” he exclaims. German troops begin making their way down into the tunnels, armed with an array of explosives. Down below, Bishop sees the deadly weaponry and curses. “Everybody back!” he shouts. He, Toby, Anton, Kate, and Tom race into the second cart. Bishop stops to unlatch the carts, then slides the door shut. Behind the controls he tries to start the cart up and take it in reverse. No power. He curses. The Germans fire their bazookas, connecting with the first cart and causing it to explode, jolting the second cart backwards. Everyone hits the ground from the jolt. Bishop pulls himself up and turns to Toby. “Why isn’t this cart moving?” Bishop exclaims. Toby looks terrified as he realizes he forgot to check the power of the second cart. Bishop charges past Toby and slides open the back door of the cart. “We have to move. Now!” he exclaims. He helps the Klein family out and then helps lower a now awake, but in a lot of pain Claude, onto the tracks. Kate jumps out next. Bishop turns to Toby with a look of anger, then turns and hops off the cart. Tom hops off and howls in pain. Toby is quick behind him, checking what happened. He looks down to see Tom’s foot lodged between two bars in the track. “It’s stuck,” Tom cries. “Hang on. I’ll get you out,” Toby says, pulling on Tom’s leg with all his might. Toby and Tom continue to struggle, but the foot just wasn’t coming loose. “It’s not coming out,” Tom says. “It will,” Toby says, trying with all his might to pry the man’s foot from the track. Bishop finally turns around to see Toby and Tom still at the cart. He then looks to see the German troops readying to fire another round. “Toby! Move!” he exclaims. Toby continues to pull on Tom’s leg, giving it everything he has and more. The Germans finally fire their weapons, the explosions connecting with the wreckage of the first cart. The force causes the second cart to launch backward down the track. Toby leaps out of the way at the last second, forced to leave Tom behind. Toby lays on the ground in shock, eyes locked on the place where Tom has been mere seconds earlier. All that remained was blood spots. Bishop races around the bend, rifle in hand. He fires quickly at the reloading Germans, taking two of the explosives goons out. The surviving four drop their bazookas and raise their pistols. Bishop quickly takes out two, but it’s obvious he’s not quick enough to get the others before they get him. And that’s when Victoria rounds the bend, rifle in hand, disposing of the remaining two enemies with ease. Bishop turns to her, impressed. The others join them. Anton turns to his wife. “When did you learn to shoot like that?” he asks. “Nights you didn’t come home,” she replies. This stings Anton a bit, but he deserved it and he was glad she was at least talking to him again. Bishop turns away from Toby, not even helping him up. Toby pulls himself up and pushes past the others, obviously upset with himself. “There’s small exit points throughout the tunnel. We’re close enough to Morgen now. Someone can go to the surface and call in a ship,” Anton says. “One problem. The radio’s in there,” Bishop says, pointing at the wreckage that remained of the first cart. While the “adults” talked, Claude is shakily pulling himself off the ground, clutching his side in pain. “You need to sit down and rest,” Alice tells him. “It’s ok. I’m feeling better,” Claude says, leaning against the wall for support. We can tell he is most definitely not ok, but he doesn’t want Alice to worry. He’s listening in on Anton and Bishop’s conversation on the predicament they were all in. Then he turns to see Toby crouching on the ground about a yard away from him, back turned to everyone. “I’ll be right back,” Claude tells Alice, and he pulls himself over to Toby. Meanwhile, Bishop and Anton can’t seem to come up with a plan. Then Bishop notices Toby loading up on weapons. “What are you doing?” Bishop asks him. Toby doesn’t answer, instead turning and heading down the tunnel, searching the walls for something. Claude puts on a backpack filled with something. “What’s he doing?” Bishop asks Claude. Claude doesn’t say anything, just turns to Alice and says, “I love you,” then pulls her in for a tight embrace. Toby finds what he’s looking for, a ladder. He begins climbing up when Bishop realizes what’s going on. “Toby! You can’t go out there!” he exclaims. Toby continues climbing. “Toby! God dammit stop!” Bishop cries out. While embracing, Claude turns around toward Anton and lets go of Alice. Anton grabs onto her tightly, realizing what Claude was doing. “No!” Alice cries out as Claude painfully walks to the exit of the tunnel, where six armored jeeps full of German troops awaited. Anton holds his daughter tight as she tries to break free, crying out for Claude to come back. Toby had reached the top of the ladder and grabs the latch to open the door. He can hear Bishop calling for him to come back. Claude stumbles past the cart wreckage and finally reaches a stairwell to the outside world. He turns back to see Toby reaching the top of the ladder, then he turns to Alice and tugs his ear, their sign for “I love you,” and then he begins climbing the stairs.

    The hatch door swings open a couple dozen yards away from where the German troops stood by the lab exit. Toby pulls himself out of the tunnel and takes aim on the German convoy. He takes aim on the German convoy and opens fire, gunning down a few of their men before they notice he’s there. They all turn their attention to him, firing everything they’ve got. We don’t see the results as the German’s fire their excessive amounts of lead into Toby, but we know it’s a bloody demise. As the Germans focus their attention on the lone shooter, Claude has crawled from the lab exit to under one of the German jeeps. He empties his bag onto the ground, revealing a ton of C4. His hands shake as he grabs the detonator. He takes a deep breath and closes his eyes, then squeezes down hard. The C4 explodes and the jeep goes up in flames. The explosion knocks all the German troops off their feet at best. At worst the unlucky soldiers are blown to smithereens. Three of the other jeeps are wrecked beyond repair. It was complete carnage.

    (NOTE: Another long, no cuts or edits shot. One long continuous shot until said otherwise.) Down below, everyone is in shock. The audio cuts out and everything is muted. We can see Alice screaming and crying ballisticly as her father tries to hold her tight. Bishop is the first to snap back into action and the camera follows him as he proves he knows how to act fast. He breaks into a sprint toward the exit, the camera shakily chasing after him. He flies up the staircase like a maniac and readies his gun as he pops up above the surface. He fires at any German who raises their head off the ground as he makes his way to the closest drivable jeep. The camera moves in through the trunk and is placed in the back seat, focused on Bishop. In the drivers seat he makes his first hesitation, looking back to where Toby’s body lay on the desert floor. He fights back any emotion then throws the jeep into reverse. The back falls into the exit hole. We can tell the surviving Germans have gotten up and shaken off the explosion because they’ve begun to open fire. Bullets ricochet off the sides and the bulletproof windows. Bishop slides to the back of the jeep and throws the back doors open. He turns to everyone in the tunnel. “Get in!”

    (Long shot stops) Victoria was holding on to the crying Alice now, trying to comfort her daughter. They start to move toward the jeep when Anton turns to see Kate was still standing in the tunnel, not moving. “Kate, we have to go,” he says. Kate just shakes her head, crying. She turns her head to Victoria. “I’m so sorry,” she tells her. Anton is at a loss for words. Victoria feels sorry for her and tries to give her a smile for reassurance. “I don’t blame you,” Victoria says. Anton tries to convince Kate to come with them to stay safe, but Kate knew she would just cause problems the longer she was with them. “They’re not after me. I’ll be ok,” Kate says. Anton sighs, at a loss. “Stay safe,” Anton tells her, then turns and picks up John. He and his family hurry to get on the jeep.

    Once the Klein clan has piled into the jeep, Bishop puts it in drive and floors it. The front wheels spin, trying hard to pull the weight of it’s back out of the hole. “Come on!” Bishop says as the jeep continues to be riddled by bullets. In front of them, Hans stood with his pistol raised. He looked like hell. He’d BEEN through hell. But he couldn’t let Anton get away. Not with his family on the line. He fires his pistol directly at Anton’s head. From his point of you the ding it makes on the windshield is directly between Anton’s eyes. He fires again. And again. And again. Each time, hitting the windshield in the same spot. All his hopes and prayers are that the next shot would break through and his family would be safe. He continues firing, the breakthrough shot never coming. And then the jeep finally pulls itself from the hole, speeding toward him. He jumps out the way at the last second, narrowly missing being run over. He almost wish he had been run over. He hops into one of the working jeeps. “Let’s go! We can catch them!” he exclaims. None of his troops enter their jeeps. “We’re going to lose them! Let’s go!” he cries out. One of his soldiers walks over to him. “Sir, pursuing them is suicide. The Universal Militia owns the skies above Morgen.” Hans turns to the soldier and snarls, “Then let’s take the skies back.”

    Bishop drives with Anton riding shotgun, his family in the back. Bishop’s stare in intense, obviously mourning Toby. “I’m sorry about Toby,” Anton says. Bishop doesn’t respond, just continues to stare forward. After a few long moments he turns to Anton and says, “Sorry about Claude.”

    Bishop pulls the jeep to a stop and gets out, as does the Klein clan. Overhead is a marvelous array of ships, completely blocking out their view of the sky. Bishop waves his arms around, hoping someone would spot them. He then grabs Anton and jokingly presents his face to any observers on the ship. After a few long moments, a small carrier vessel descends toward them. They all race over to it and climb aboard. Once they’re all snug inside, the pilot takes off back toward the main ship in the sky. “Precious cargo on board,” he says over the radio. Bishop looks back at Anton, the most valuable, important man in the world. Mission accomplished.

    Hans is in a mad dash across the German ship yard. Around him, ships were being for take off. A large, hulking German strides over to him. “Drescher. I heard about your brother. My condolences,” Hans murmurs out of breath. The German nods to him. “We need to get in the skies. Dr. Klein is escaping,” Hans continues. “I know,” Drescher replies, motioning to the lively ship yard. “Great. Just get me to a ship and let’s go. No time to waste,” Hans says. “You’re off the case, Hans. Apparently my father didn’t give you enough incentive to get the job done so the responsibility falls on me,” Drescher replies. “Drescher, please. My family,” Hans begins, quickly losing his cool. “Just be thankful you won’t share their same fate,” Drescher replies, then calmly turning and boarding a ship. “No!” Hans howls, furious. He goes to leap onto the ship, but two soldiers grab him. He struggles to break free, but they just tighten their grip and drag him away.

    “Isn’t it beautiful?” Anton asks John as he holds him up to a large window overlooking space. They were off their carrier now and on the giant ship that would be taking them all to Earth. Anton leaves an awestruck John staring out the window and then goes to sit by Victoria, who had Alice asleep in her lap. “She finally calmed down,” Victoria whispers. Anton just stares at his sleeping daughter, then back to John. “I’m just happy we all made it here alive,” Anton says. Victoria looks at him and for a split second we think it might be a tender moment, but then she turns away. “It’s not right what you did to her,” Victoria says. “Who, Kate?” Anton asks. Victoria nods. “I never meant for things to get as far as they did. I was the man she looked up to and admired. In her eyes I was perfect. I could tell she liked me, but never acted on it. But then we started growing apart, and I took advantage of her feelings. You’re right. I shouldn’t have done it. Not to her. Not to you,” Anton says, looking at his wife, once again praying she would turn her head. And just as we think she’s about to, the ship lurches, causing John to fall from his spot overlooking space. Anton races over and picks him up and sees if he’s ok. Once he knows everything’s ok with John he turns to Victoria. “What the hell was that?”

    Bishop is in another part of the ship. A part that’s now a bit more…airy. A large chunk of the ship has been blown off. Crew men and unfastened objects get sucked out into space. Bishop has his back against a wall, almost pinned there by the force. With no air, he’s struggling to stay conscious, but we can see he’s quickly losing it. A rope is thrown to him, but it is pulled out into space. Bishop turns and see it taught. Held in safety by a group of crew men. The other end trying to be ripped out into space. He tries to reach for it but it’s just out of reach. His face is starting to turn blue as he struggles to reach the rope. When he realizes he can’t reach it, there’s only one other option. He pulls himself from the wall and does the best push off he can manage. He getting pulled into space when at the last second he grabs the rope and twists it around his arm. He’s pulled in to safety where he collapses to the ground. Someone brings him oxygen to help refill his lungs. He wants to sit there and breathe in the much needed air longer, but when the ship lurches again he’s reminded that they’re under attack and he had to protect Anton. Bishop gets up and races down the hallway.

    Anton carries John and leads Victoria and Alice as they make they’re way down the shaking hallways of the ship. A soldier named Bryce stops them and tells them to follow him to safety. They follow Bryce to the center of the ship, a large dome with passages leading to all parts of the ship. Bryce tells them to wait just a second while he goes to see about an escape pod for them. They watch as Bryce heads over to a large group of soldiers to talk. Anton and his family look around the dome. There had to be almost a hundred soldiers in this section alone, all scrambling in a panic. Anton turns to Bryce to see how things were going. Bryce turns to him and gives him a thumbs up. And just in that moment, an explode erupts in the dome, instantly killing Bryce and all the soldiers he was talking to, and seriously injuring anyone around them. “The Germans have breached the ship!” some yells as gunfire erupts in the dome. Anton curses and turns to his family. “Let’s go!” he cries, leading the way away from the gunfire.

    Bishop is running through the commotion, everyone in disarray. He turns down a long empty hallway, searching for the Kleins or anyone who knew of their whereabouts when he hears footsteps behind him. He turns to see Drescher strutting toward him. “Captain Bishop. Pleasure to see you,” Drescher says. Bishop doesn’t respond, instead he reaches for his gun which wasn’t there. Must have got sucked out of the ship. “Looking for one of these?” Drescher asks, pulling out a pistol, studying it in his hands. “Actually, Emile, I think I’ll leave the toys to you,” Bishop finally speaks. Being called Emile stings Drescher a bit. “Let’s be cordial here, Rudy. I called you Captain, you call me Drescher,” Drescher states. “Drescher is your father. Try using his moniker all you want, it doesn’t change the man you are. Look how well it turned out for your brother,” Bishop snides. That was it. Dreshcer was done playing games. He raises his pistol to make one deadly shot when the ship lurches again and he misses. From outside we can see a gigantic chunk has been blown off the ship by the attacking Germans. With one side of the ship nearly blown off, the whole thing begins to tilt. Back inside we see Bishop and Drescher fall as the ship turns. The ship was nearly on it’s side. Bishop and Drescher had the glass doorway as their floor now. The two men pull themselves up to fight when they notice the pistol laying in between them. Both men dive for it, punching, clawing, and kicking each other on the ground. The roll around, each trying to get the upper hand over the other. Drescher rolls on top of Bishop and lays a series of good punches into his face, then starts strangling him. Bishop struggles for air as Drescher presses down against his neck. Bishop’s arms flail, and then his hand comes around the pistol. Drescher slams Bishop’s arm down before it can take aim. Out of option, Bishop just fires at the glass doorway acting as their floor. The glass shatters and the two men go falling down the hallway, hitting another glass doorway with a thud and causing it to crack. Down below we see only one more of these glass doorways stood between the men and infinite space. The men pull themselves up and look around for the gun. As Drescher goes to grab for it, Bishop charges, tackling Drescher to the ground and causing more cracks to form. The two men struggle, but Drescher eventually throws Bishop off. Bishop falls backwards and hit’s the glass with enough force that if breaks and they go falling down the hallway again, hitting the last glass doorway. Bishop hits it face first and can see space stretch out forever underneath him. He was losing steam, not able to take much more of this beating. Drescher turns him over, pointing at gun at his head. “Stand up so when I shoot you I don’t kill us both,” Drescher says. And then THUD, Drecher falls to the ground, Anton standing behind him holding a metal pipe. Anton throws the pipe to the ground and goes to help Bishop up and then out through a sideways door in the wall. Bishop turns back and sees Drescher laying on the ground, slowly pulling himself up. Beside Bishop was a switch to activate the glass doorway under Drescher’s feet. Drescher groggily stands up and sees Bishop standing by the switch. “Don’t,” Drescher simply pleads. “Say hello to Michael for me,” Bishop says before flipping the switch, sending Drescher flying off into space.

    Things had gone to complete hell now. The Universal Militia was holding off the German fleet the best they could, but the Germans had only one target, Anton. So their concentrated fire on his ship was quickly diminishing the ship’s integrity. Inside the ship, an alarm was blaring. This ship was going down soon and everyone who was in it better be praying to God they could find a way out. Bishop was leading the Klein family down a series of hallways. He had arranged to be picked up and taken off this dying vessel. He leads them into a room with many sets of giant windows looking out into space. They head over to one and watch as a small assault ship pulls up along side the window. Bishop types in a code on the wall and a bridge extends from one ship to the other. “You ready to go?” Bishop asks the Kleins. But then a German ship fires upon the bridge, destroying it. The surviving chunks floating off into space. Bishop curses and watches as it looks like the assault ship is flying away. He could hear more and more explosions and gunfire erupting in the hallways. It was only a matter of time before they’d all be killed. But the assault ship was only repositioning itself. “What are they doing?” Bishop whispers to himself, then realizes. “Everyone get back!” Bishop yells to the Kleins. The Kleins move away from the window and Bishop presses himself up against the wall, typing in another code. The window opens out into space. The Kleins watch as two men in spacesuits leap from the assault ship and land inside the other ship. Bishop closes the window behind them. The two men slide back their visors to reveal they were Dalton (James McAvoy) and Hopper (Karl Urban). Viewers of the first film of course know who these men are. But our characters and new viewers will just see them as soldiers coming to save the day. “Alright, let’s get the hell out of here,” Dalton says to them. Bishop hurries over to a glass box on the wall and busts it open, taking out emergency space suits. He and the Kleins put the suits on. Victoria holds John in her arms and Hopper grabs hold of her hand. Bishop opens the window again and Hopper jumps out with Victoria and John. They land safely in the assault ship. Dalton grabs on to Alice and turns back to Bishop, who would be jumping with Anton. “Don’t drop him,” Dalton jokes, then he and Alice leap outside, float through space, and land safely in the assault ship. Bishop and Anton ready themselves to jump. Jumping from one ship to another where one slip up led to death was a bit daunting for Anton as he stepped up to jump. Bishop turns to him to see if he’s ready. Anton nods and with that the two men jump. Just as they jump, a German ship attacks the assault ship, causing it to move. In mid air, Bishop thrusts Anton forward, causing him to land in the outstretched arms of Dalton and Hopper. Bishop doesn’t make it inside the assault ship, instead he comes up short and has to grab onto a bottom portion of it. He’s holding on for dear life as the ship is rocked by enemy fire. “Hang on!” Dalton calls to him as he readies a harness. Hopper hurries up to the cockpit, where Wallace (Anthony Mackie) is piloting. “Keep the right side out of fire,” Hopper tells him. Meanwhile, Dalton is leaning out of the ship, arm outstretched to Bishop as the ship is continuously rocked with enemy blasts. Bishop struggles to grab Dalton’s hand as his own grip on the ship was beginning to slip. (unintentional rhyme) Finally, the two men lock hands. Dalton yanks Bishop into the ship and the door slides shut behind them. From the cockpit, Wallace yells, “Finally! Now let’s fly.”

    Wallace demonstrates his amazing piloting skills as he bobs and weaves through enemy fire. All German eyes were on them as they speed through space. Tracking missiles are launched at them, but are quickly lost. Either exploding into debris, each other, or other enemy ships, all due to Wallace’s expert flying. Outside was hell, but Wallace piloted through them like they were calm waters. And soon, their ship was blasting off into clear space, leaving behind all the carnage behind them.

    The ship soars through space, now clear from any danger. Inside, Anton sits with his family. Bishop walks over to them. “Come look at this,” he tells them. The Klein family make their way to a window overlooking space. Wallace, Dalton, and Hopper were already there, staring out the window. Bishop points off into the distance. “We made it,” he begins. “Welcome back home.” Before the camera turns to what he’s pointing at, it stays on Anton. He isn’t looking outside, but instead at Victoria. After a few long moments she turns her head to him and can’t help but smile. They had made it. Anton grabs Victoria’s hand and they all stood there as a family. And as the camera turns to look out the window, we see the ship edging toward Earth.

  6. It's kind of a mix of Antigone's brotherly civil war, Lord of the Rings, and Skyrim. Dominic West plays a soldier caught between two brothers, one the King (David Wenham) and one a deserter leading a rebel army (Tom Hiddelston). Richard Madden and Luke Treadaway lead separate storylines as well.

  8. Boyd is the woman's ex-husband's brother, who went to jail right? Yeh, he was interesting.

    yes

    Season 1 is good. But season 2 is where it made the leap to a great show and it's continued ever since.

    Definitely. Season 1 was basically just a well done procedural until Boyd comes back at the end and the last few episodes became more serialized. Season 2 took this style and ran with it, and the Bennetts were an amazing addition. And Boyd got some amazing stuff to work with as he became a real co-lead.
  9. My aunt raves about this, so I watched all of Season One last year but I never got really invested in it. Thought it was kind of boring and don't think I liked the setting too much either.I just chalked it up to my aunt being a Southerner, and called it a day.

    Did you like the latter half when Boyd returned? If yes, then give season two a shot. If no, then this just isn't a show for you.
  10. You guys should just read the comics. They're very different from the show. In the comics Shane dies much sooner, Tyreese has long been introduced, Dale and Andrea were romantically involved and Dale lasts a LOT longer, Sophia doesn't die, Carol is hotter, no T-Dogg. Also, the farm is barely in the comics. None of what happened in the second half of the season happens in the comics (except Shane's death, but again, that happened much sooner.)If season 3 isn't better, the show should just give up. The stuff that should be covered in season 3 is AMAZING and there's no reason for them to mess it up.

  12. Maybe in the off season I'll read the comics. Sounds like they are really good. I just don't want to ruin the TV show for myself... it's fun not knowing.

    they've deviated so much from the comics it probably wouldn't spoil much. Kirkman seems to have the opposite opinion many other authors do. The more changes, the better.
  13. Was there anything dramatic behind the scenes which occurred that you think greatly affected the game?

    The only real drama I was apart of was the week Totem was eliminated. That whole week was crazy. I had an alliance with ESB. The plan was for us to both vote out Totem. I assumed Ariadne would also vote for Totem and Totem would vote for me. That had me scared a bit because if Totem won immunity, I'd be going home. To make sure that's how the votes were going (and after ESB voting for Numbers the week before, I had slight suspicions) I sent a pm to Ariadne asking her to vote out ESB. Ariadne then told me she'd been in an alliance with ESB for a while. Not too shocking a revelation, but it meant I'd be stuck crossing my fingers Totem lost immunity. But THEN Totem pulled off a pretty amazing strategic move. As briefly discussed in that week's thread, he sent Ariadne and I a pm, then blocked me from the conversation. I never even got the pm here. The only reason I knew about the conversation was because it sent me an email and I could read it there. In that email I read that Ariadne told Totem she was voting me out. That got me REALLY worried, so I scrambled to save my ass. Luckily, I'd already sent in my vote and Totem ended up going home anyway. Phew.

    Who was the most shocking elimination?

    Numbers. I wasn't even thinking about Totem winning immunity and was convinced it'd be an IMF final 4.

    Should Ariadne have been in the finale instead of Empire?

    Well, I certainly don't regret my choice. ;)

    I want to know more of how you all strategized.

    My strategy was to not look like too much of a threat at the beginning, but then break away from the pack when I felt the time was right. I had no alliances until very late in the game. I wanted an all IMF final, and I figured Numbers was probably on the same page, so I sent a pm to Ariadne and ESB to form an alliance. Ariadne didn't respond, but ESB joined in. So I felt like I had ESB and Numbers on my side to take down Totem.
