If youre looking for an episode ofThe Greatto skip, this is the one.
I cannot with it.
Thats not to say there arent good things.
And with that, lets get into it!
Peter has decided hes changed since his near-death experience.
Now hes all about staring at birds and also having a food tester and a bodyguard.
The bodyguard is a Tatar named Nick.
I love Nick and hope he figures more prominently in the story going forward.
I cant decide if Peter is really making great strides this episode or if this will all vanish overnight.
All these seem like positive signs, and yet he also throws a dog off the roof.
Lets not go any further until we address Orlos extremely weirdThe RevenantmeetsNaked and Afraidtime in the woods.
Orlo stabs the Swedish soldier (possibly by accident?)
Is it saying something about the primal nature of humanity?
Is it pushing Orlos character in a new direction towards action?
Its all super weird and sounds like a dream when you venture to retell it.
The metaphors are so blatant its embarrassing.
Two thumbs down for Orlos story arc this episode.
Hey, remember Leo?
Hes around all the time, but hes mainly telling Catherine about new drinks (Moscow Mules!
It is the human way to fall short of ourselves.
Well done, Leo.
Ten points for Gryffindor.
Or, if Dumbledore were giving them out, 5,000.
Hes also listening to her.
He wants to change, but he doesnt know how.
He gets very jazzed about this and goes on a walk about the court to get other peoples opinions.
He is 100 percent naked while doing this, and I highly enjoy seeing Nicholas Hoults shoulders.
Well done, sir.
It looks extremely fun and is basically bowling, but better.
And whats Archie up to over there?
Being extremely upset about art and science.
Why would Archie, patriarch of the Russian Church, put his 18th-century shoes on a bed?
The eponymous parachute is a science experiment that servant Vlad is trying.
Peter eagerly joins him in it, but he attaches!
For anyone worried, no, the dog does not die.
Or, as my notes have it: OH THANK GOD, THE PARACHUTE CAUGHT.
Havent we suffered enough in recent times not to also be subjected to potential dog death?
Not cool, show.
