2 Weeks. 2 Weeks Time Jump, They Skip 2 Weeks.

My man 😮‍💨.

If i had a nickel for every time I liked a freak that could be summoned with his name...id have 3 nickels...

The sir scenes this episodes were amazing between him confronting his brother and becoming possessive and Gabi talking to the recording like he was there. I feel like Gabi is becoming more and more dependent on him as time away from him passes like realistically she could solve these cases without him but I think she is doubting it as well in her own twisted way missing him. What are your thoughts on their dynamic

The fight with her father is heartwretching and then it leading to showing sir at the window with stuff to take her agian is wild. I know we know he doesn't but still gets me wanting to know what comes next.

its me and the “x reader” tags against the world.

Kevin: Go home, Brother.

Chimney: *goes to the Lees*

Shanola and MPG got nominated for Critics Choice Awards

Can it be next week now. Also sir this episode was fucking amazing. Trent pissed me off per fucking usual. Lacey's father have similarities to sir was a nice touch. Also sir being like drop the charges for his own kidnapping makes sense its just funny.

Two seconds into meeting his brother and I feel like he killed his mother and Hugh coverd it up. He instantly made my skin crawl.

cant stop thinking about the thematic implications of gabi/sir/lacey's chosen weapons

sir's go-to is poison. it's precise, scientific. you do the math right, & you have exact control over how much you hurt someone. you dont need physical strength, you dont need direct proximity to your target at time of ingestion. it's measured, it's clean. elegant, even. but slimey, too. there's a cowardice inherent to it. it's a weapon that hits hardest when you trust its wielder. & it's also historically a women's weapon. partially because, before the invention of guns, it was one of the only murder methods that didn't require physical strength. partially because women have, historically, had the most consistent access to the food & drink consumed by those who would be their targets. i would not be surprised if there was a reveal at some point that he started using poison as a weapon when he was still too young or small for his current physicality to be of any use.

contrast that against gabi's weapon of choice: brass knuckles. brass knuckles dont require precision or grace, quite the opposite, actually. brass knuckles allow their wielder to do more direct harm to their target without an increase in skill. you have to be physically close for them to do any good. & they allow their wielder less control over the amount of harm they do their target. unless their wielder is a boxer or assassin, of which gabi is neither, those who wield brass knuckles increase their risk of killing their target in exchange for more power in any given hit. but there is no denying the violence done with brass knuckles. to use them is to face, directly, the violence one commits. & gabi is given the brass knuckles to protect herself by gina. gabi is given the role of protector, of soldier.

a knife, though? ohhh

a knife is almost the best of both worlds. lacey takes to knives long before she stabs sir. we see little baby bella clutching to them as child to protect herself against him. a knife is elegant, in a sense. a knife is the closest thing a contemporary series like found will ever come to having a sword. paired with lacey's s1 styling with her big black boots & thick leather jacket, she's almost knight-like. but a knife is not all-noble. "backstabber" as not just literal betrayal, but a metaphor of its own. & not only is lacey not given the knife, both her maternal figures are horrified when she takes it for herself. gina is shocked by it when bella has it hiding under her bed, & gabi takes it from lacey when she tries to kill sir. lacey designates herself as someone capable of violence, but is denied again & again the opportunity to fully protect herself by people who see her as neither knight nor sniveling backstabber, but perpetual helpless little girl.
