Thanks for the write-up. I only watched the first couple episodes so I have a couple questions how the fuck do they capture Dr. Manhattan and what do you mean by kill? And is Hooded Justice the guy who was in the wheelchair/the boy from the opening of episode 1?

I mean Im not averse to a 2nd opinion if youd care to.

They use some particle cannon thingy, i forgot the name of it but it teleports him to a cage made of melted batteries, which for some reason is Dr Manhattans kryptonite. Yes Hooded Justice(revealed in episode 6) was retconned to be Angelas grandfather, WIll Reeves, the old man in the wheelchair/the boy from episode 1. I say "kill" because technically, Manhattan himself is nowhere, his energy at least. It wasn't terribly clear about that part but his energy was about to be transferred to Trieu, and before it happened the machine broke. So that energy is unaccounted for.

As for the capturing, the racists raid Angelas house after she takes the stone out of her husbands forehead, triggering all his memories as Manhattan, he makes a bunch of eggs, walks on water, tells her this is the end as she goes outside and starts shooting all of the racists to try to save his life. She gets pinned down and Manhattan comes outside and blows the heads off of the rest of them, except for one who uses aforementioned particle cannon.

I didn't say anything false. It was a tl;dr and exactly what happened in the episode.

Alright screw it, can you spoil it for me? (With Spoiler tags, of course.)

Adrian comes back from Europa by spelling out save me daughter, Trieu is his daughter because her mom(the woman posing as Trieu's daughter right now) stole some semen samples(yes, this is a thing for some reason, the worlds smartest man keeps a whole bunch of semen samples around for reasons unknown) and inseminated herself with it. Blah blah blah she comes back and tells him about the plan to kill dr manhattan so she can get his powers blah blah blah they both end up at the final showdown

The racists have captured manhattan, they do the whole bad guy speech in front of silk spectre and reflective man(disguised as a racist), Angela comes and warns them that its a trap from lady trieu, they obviously ignore her, keene jr explodes, Trieu teleports everyone to the middle of town and proceeds to read off the speech from Hooded Justice, who is now a black man, and kills all the racists in one shot, including senator keene sr. Dr Manhattan then teleports Silk Spectre, Veidt, and looking glass to veidts lab blah blah blah they rain frozen squid down on tulsa after manhattan is "killed"

the squid fall kills trieu and destroys the machinery, leaving dr manhattans fate unknown, angela has a heart to heart with hooded justice, they all go home, angela eats an egg that does or does not have dr manhattans powers in it, Silk Spectre arrests Veidt for killing 3 million people, Angela tries to walk on water but very predictably it cuts out before showing what happens.

I'd be very interested to hear what Alan Moore has to say about this expansion of his story, assuming he's even watched it all, which I highy doubt. I don't think he would approve of that ending... or any of it, really.

he hates everything about Watchmen except for the book he wrote and i don't think he will EVER watch this. He would tear it apart if he did

Is this an HBO series? I'm curious and want to check it out when it's on dvd or blu ray

Does dr Manhattan do any cool stuff?

No. He's out of the series until the penultimate episode, all people do is talk about him though

the way they ended with him, you'll probably wish he was out of the series though

The court asks why you don't have a lawyer present, and will advise you that you will need one. But if the person is persistent, the Judge can rule that the person is acting as their own legal council (against advisement).

I swear your honor I've totally done research

They always want something right away, and never understand how a judge could rule against them. Bonus points if they say the courts are biased or unfair, when they've done 0 legal research, their case has no merit, whatever they're asking for they don't deserve, or think because the other side has a lawyer, they should be granted leniency.

Hmm, I may get lucky.

I'm still not banned as of right now. But I went in and contacted Nintendo support and told them about my concerns. The Nintendo Associate on call basically told me that while it's unusual to overturn stuff like this, but since I reached out preemptively that they may not ban my account if the credit card manages to issue a chargeback if I could provide proof of purchase.

I hope the digital receipts from that shoddy ass website is good enough.

If I manage to get away with this, I'm never using that piece of shit website again. lol

they're still going to nix you for buying from a third party website

Not yet. Though from what I understand these kind of sellers steal credit cards information and then use the info from those cards to purchase these games and then resell these games at a reduce cost. All the original card holder has to do is perform a chargeback and it's game over for my account lol

Though I'm shocked that they haven't noticed that people are basically are stealing from them and has initiated the chargeback on yet

It'll come soon enough. I did it on a dummy account and I got hit. If I was on my main i'd just sell off the console.

Maybe the parent is a single parent, couldn't afford a sitter, or got called on shift and couldn't make an arrangement, the job is all they have since they've fallen on tough times, and the kid wanted to help their parent out by walking a package to the door.

Fair enough. My best friend recently joined my company and used the G word... and was shocked when I let him know that whilst socially I'm fine with it, given the prominence of our company in LGBT communities it would be unwise to use such language around the office loosely.

I think I'm just used to being careful with words and behaviours nowadays but being PC all the time isn't natural and definitely isn't for everyone.
