Alas. Sobe is hard to find in many convenience stores, actually. *g* Especially in out of the way gas stations.
And don't try to get ginger ale or Fresca west of the Mississippi.

It's true that the Coke distributor is like the UPS guy--they go everywhere. (But this place is so dinky they may drive the pickup in to the grocery warehouse and pick up their order there.) 'Struth, though. Maybe the Sobe was hidden at the back of the row of diet Dr. Pepper. *g*
Good catch on the 26.

Ah, I bow to Bear's better knowledge of Sobe stock. My convenience stores have lately been urban/interstate.

And I loved the double meaning on making it to 26.
Yes, I caught that one too, and had yet another "oh ghods, poor Chaz!" moment. I'm going to have to re-read this at some point to see what details I've missed. But not tonight. |

I just spent the past hour curled up in a ball in my computer chair whimpering. Well done, guys. (Well, except for the part where I had to go start a pot of dal because I was getting sympathy hunger pains. But.) I wonder if I can read it over again on the bus tomorrow without scaring other people...

There went the evening I was going to spend grading. (A much better use of time, of course.) Chaz's list was awesome, as I have also read too much about medieval torture and executions. (Am I a terrible person for explain the reasoning behind different methods of execution as related to the crime to 10th graders? They kind of asked... maybe I shouldn't be a teacher.)
*wails about waiting until tomorrow* Evil, mean, awesome, evil authors.

No, that makes you the teacher all the 10th graders like best. *g* |

Okay, so I didn't wait 'til my lunchbreak. Am bad employee.
Ow. Ow, ow, ow. Poor Chaz. And oh, poor Addy.
We know where Chaz gets his spine from, though.

Ow! I'm really, really glad I'm sitting here and read this first part of the ep with a cat on my lap.
Poor Chaz. And with a <redacted> gamma like that.
Thanks so much to Emma and Bear for this!

And this is only the beginning.

Oh, fucking hell.
I believe those were the words I was looking for. Awesome episode (part of an episode. Oh God, this whole week's going to be like this...). Poor Chaz. Poor Addy. Poor Hafs. (That description of her voice...) Poor everyone. |

We know where Chaz gets his spine from, though. Indeed we do. And now I'm wondering: Chaz thinks the heroin came later, but William seems awfully adept with that needle....? I'm also wondering if this is the end of the line on Reyes's policy of trying to take the unsubs alive. |
