Amazing promo.

I think I'm still too stunned to comment. So many of the things we were speculating about based on the shorter version seem to be real!

Yeah, but then, the show does tend to actually detonate things. Like when they found the pen, they found the pen and that all blew up.

Interesting that Philip and Elizabeth so readily lie about the "do people get hurt?" stuff since Philip is especially feeling bad about that. But he's also pretty decisive about protecting himself/the family. Elizabeth is actually sometimes the one more likely to want to share her real emotional state.

It also occurred to me that they cleverly paralleled Elizabeth last season impressing on Paige that knowing was "a lot of responsibility" (which she testily brushed off with "I know!") with Pastor Tim now telling her she (he says "we" but it's really just Paige) have a "responsibility" to stop her parents if people are getting hurt.

Paige didn't want the responsibility and thought it would be easier if she shared but I do think think she's going to figure out that it just gets more complicated when you share it. It's only safe to share the secret when the other person doesn't have their own agenda.

Finally one I can watch in my region! That's one mouthwatering promo. Cannot wait!

[treonb]

I have the same problem. For all previous promos, I added links in the comments once those clips became available.

Yeah, most of us in this particular comm have region-difficulties with U.S.-specific products, so you should always check back--we're pretty diligent about that.

They're searching Martha's flat.

*collapses in fear*

The scene with Stan talking to Paige about her parents going out of town unexpectedly while she seems to be packing her knapsack makes me wonder if her parents don't wind up disappearing on her for a while with Paige covering.

Wait a minute! Where is Philip when he's loading that small gun? And is the gun his? (I don't remember what Martha's gun looked like right now.)

[sistermagpie]

Is he wearing the same shirt as the clip where he tells Martha about Gene? He might be at Martha's with Martha's gun.

[saraqael]

I'm pretty sure it's the same shirt, white with gold (or brown?)stripes. He's also wearing a striped shirt in the clip where he appears to be fiddling with a phone answering machine (?) and then grabbing the photo of Clark and Martha, but I can't tell if that's the same shirt. The stripe color seems paler, but that could just be due to the lighting of the scene.

[sistermagpie]

Clark likes his earth tones!

Damn, it looks so good! I wish I wasn't going to be away for so long.
