Black Freighter Inn and Suites

 

Wow, loving all the tie-ins to the comics in this one

 

I love every single Jeremy Irons scene.

 

I wish I was as fit as Jeremy Irons

 

Ok there it is now where the fuck is he???

 

He’s being held on Mars right??

 

That would be a hell of a twist

 

We saw Manhattan building an identical castle then destroying it in the first episode.

 

GIANT BLUE DILDO

 

That episode flew by. Best yet.

 

Yep, best episode of the season so far. Wow.

 

tremendous stuff yet again. 3 for 3 and this one was probably the best of the bunch

 

Really curious what went down between Dan and Lori.

 

reading all the theories everyone has regarding Veidt is pretty entertaining, some wild ones out there

 

This remains fucking awesome.

The background of the dr. Manhattan phone booth being downtown Decatur was very distracting for me tho lol

 

this show is just magical

 

This is my theory too.

 

This is the best show on television

 

Someone noticed it looks like you can see the earth next to the sun when Veidt stands next to Phillips body

 

Dan and Laurie were apprehended in the 90s for continuing their vigilante work. Laurie cut a deal and went to work for the feds, Dan didn’t and is still in prison. It’s why Keene convinced her to go to Tulsa by saying when he’s president he’ll pardon Dan and get him out of prison.

 

Peteypedia

Updated with more materials. Also, the agent compiling these documents in-universe is the one Laurie takes with her to Tulsa.

 

Gotcha. I did know about all of that stuff from Peteypedia but missed the line where Keene said he would pardon Dan. I just meant I'd like a little more elaboration about the details about what went down between them, like why she made the deal but why he wouldn't, how they got caught, etc

 

Also..I just can't think of why Manhattan would imprison Veidt on Mars. Why now? Why not after the staged alien attack? Jon seemed fine to leave Veidt behind on Earth at that point to leave the galaxy.

I think there's more to it than what people are thinking

 

seems like the most obvious guess but i’m assuming Veidt is on mars and manhattan is the game warden (there was a line in a previous episode about him being able to take human form again). my assumption is Veidt is trying to build a suit to sustain exploration on Mars/back to earth and Manhattan is, for obvious reasons, trying to prevent that

 

This has been good and fun so far but also it's politics seem........nonsensical at best. Which is a shame considering how central the politics of the original were
