Sorry for the delay in getting this posted…although, honestly, the feedback is so often limited to just one person’s thoughts that I’m thinking maybe John and I should just trade E-mail back and forth about the show. (Loosely translated: even if the show makes it back for Season 2, don’t necessarily hold your breath on the blog returning with it.) Anyway, the reasons for the delay are really just several small, ultimately-unimportant excuses, so I’ll just offer my apologies and say, “Let’s get on with it, then, shall we?”
Well, actually, delay or no delay, this’ll be a short one.
The big action this week involved the boys from Jericho returning from New Bern with windmills…but without Eric. Jake, of course, goes in search of his brother, and he drafts Hawkins to go with him. This gives Hawkins a chance to finally let loose and use the skills he hasn’t had much call for since the bombs dropped; it shocks Jake a bit when Hawkins takes on the deputy, but, dude, you knew his past, you shouldn’t have been that surprised. Johnston and Mary bond a little, Stanley and Mimi fight a little, Skylar tries to declare her parents dead so that she can have control of their farm (and, amazingly, Mr. Mayor manages to make a valid point or two when arguing with her), and, basically, we get the idea that between New Bern and Ravenwood, Jericho’s probably gonna be using that tank they’ve got stashed away sooner than later.
The big bombshell of the week, though, is that Heather is dead. I didn’t really anticipate that.
