Nip/Tuck
 

Wow! Tonight's episode is Wow!

Couldn't have turned out better.

I had figured Christian for the bad guy...now my bets are on the porn star...

My money is on the new partner.

But how did he get hold of a condom full of Christian's manchowder?

Boy anyone reading this thread not familiar with this show has gotta be going "WTF??"

Remember, he was there for several '3-way sessions'? Motility might be an issue.

I may have to go back to the DVR to see who the partner got along with better in Christian's bed.

I am LOL on this one. The Magnum of Manchowder.

I really thought it was going to be a cheesy show. Turns out to be one of the best on TV. F/X has put together some pretty good stuff lately...

and you guys won't watch the daily show?

Not that we won't. It just gets old pretty quickly. I think Jon is one of the best comedians out there. But it's like mexican food. You have to stay away from a daily diet of it to appreciate it again down the road.

I am with singpilot... It's going to be the new partner...

I loved the ending, with the psyco detective ***** as the victim...

Still last night episode was a little too stretched... I mean Christian's father is a raper, his foster parents molested him and even his mother believes he's a serial killer just like that. MMmmm

Plus how will he be able to trust Sean again? It's going to be pretty intense in the next couple of episodes.

Matteo;

Agree. The mother thing could have been left out. It was too over the top to be believeable. I suspect it was put in to lead the viewer down the path. But in actuality, may lead to another sidebar.

I was surprised Christian didn't confess to Sean about why he really had the tranquilizer in his possesion.

WHAT??

I think the whole mother/father thing was laying foundations for a future thread.

(I missed the tranq thing, why did he really have it? Wasn't for the reenactment as he said?)

Yeah... I don't remember it either...

But the re-enactment happened back at the office?

Was easy to miss. Sean tells Christian while still in jail that the bottle of tranquilizer was found by the police in his nightstand. Sean has that look like 'they got ya dead to rights, buddy'.....

But remember in a not too previous episode about the girl that was under anesthesia and could remember what was being said about her while in surgery? And was threatening to sue? Christian and the anesthesiologist did the experiment on Christian to see if it was possible? That bottle of tranquilizer.

Christian didn't say anything about it to Sean to see what Sean really thought about his guilt. Assuming here that Christian knowing he was innocent, that is.

Also, I think Christian did not want to involve Sean in a potential f-up in the office just yet. Yes, the newbie partner was in on that one too.

I don't remember ever seeing the re-enactment. I thought he was speaking of something we had never seen, like the somdomization... he was just opening up to Sean...

It was like the last scene in the previous episode, right after Christian cut his arm with the knife..."pain for pain"

sing
I think Christian was talking abt a different re-enactment... Soemthing he would have done on his own.. He did say he got the bottle form the office... 1 month before actually.. I do not think the scene at the office (with anesthesist) is the re-enactment.

It's Sean that cut his arm....

I don't think the anasthetic used to do the experiment in the office with the dyke anasthesiologist is the same as the tranq that showed up in his dresser drawer at home. I think the latter is "new information".

Counterpoint to the 'new partner' being the carver: wasn't he off in another state when most of the attacks were happening? And maybe it was just me, but when Kimber was watching the news and seeing that Christian had been nabbed for the crimes, the look on her face was not so much "Ohhh my poor innocent boyfriend" but more like "You idiots, its me you want, not him how could you make this kind of f-up"

I don't know how the re-enactment got into this. I think the bottle of tranq was from the surgery experiment on Christian. Remember the anesthesiologist saying she had flushed their present lot numbered supply down the toilet? And that she was going to resign, or that she needed to be put on 'leave'? Christian nips (pardon the pun) that plan in the bud. Says to her to use the same stuff and put me under. I'll tell you if I go completely out.

Remember the tears from Christians' eye as he was with the slasher? Same tears from the slasher vic/surgery girl. She overheard the docs talking about how she was not a real slasher vic while she was supposedly under and out during the pro-bono surgery.

Then again last night, Christian telling Sean that he was aware of what was being said, but was paralyzed (except he could move his fingers), while under with his run in with the slasher.

Yeah, lots of good stuff there.

Dave;

Yeah, I caught that too. Kimber is definately a 'wild card' pardon the pun. The newbie partner being in another state is convienient, no? I thought the tranq used in surgery was the same used by the slasher. Maybe I am wrong about that.

MMmm certainly is someone who had access to one of Christrian's condoms.
Doen't the carver use any force at all? He/she seems to be very atlhetic and smooth in entering houses without being noticed....

The new partner was supposedly in another state... but that does not prevent him travelling to Fl. The motive for committing his crimes in FL escapes me right now...

my wife's thinking the new partner... i'm thinking the anasthesiologist... fun stuff!

Great show. I am leaning toward the new partner as the Carver. Because Christian opposed him as a new partner, framing Christian to get him out of the practice could have been accomplished. Even if Christian were not convicted of murder, his name and partnership in the practice probably would have ended. When Christian was released from jail, his name was smeared too. I thought it was also pretty good that that "all knowing profiler" (I am so sick of those pretend characters who seem to pick up details in crime scenes and instantly figure things out) became a victim of the Carver.

The new partner is bisexual which also fits the lifestyle of the Carver as well. While watching this last episode, I felt cheated when it seemed that Christian's arrest was a dream. That is until the dream was actually him with Kimber at his apartment.

Great entertainment, David

The condom left in the last victim's room reduces the possible suspects.. Unless they come out with something completely unpredictable...

Also I just thought that if we believe Christian when he said he's been raped by the carver then we need to eliminate any female suspect.

I as a woman could rape a man with the appropriate tools... strap on...

:D

Kim

you certainly could... :eek: but Mr Troy is considered an expert in sex things...(remember when he could tell that Matt's girlfriend had been a man because she was not deep enough).

I figure you can tell the difference between a dildo and the real thing... What do u say? :D

:D

I just got scared out of this thread..............David

Whatever happened to the red headed plastic surgeon that traded his car for Kimber? Could the carver be him?

I like the name Kimber. Rhymes with LIMBER.

My daughter's name is Kimberly. Unfortunately due to this show, I will never be able to call her Kimber. Stuck with Kim or Kimberly, and that's fine with me.

Sooooo this thread is about due for resurrection!

Who sees some real-world controversy with scientology and the show/network management on the horizon? All is neutral right now, but wait till Kimber tries to pull out of it...

Is this thing still going? What channel? Sorry, I don't really watch TV so I have no idea. We're watching the DVDs from Netflix. I think we're up to season 2 episode 5. At first I really resisted the show... too dark and negative. But, it has turned out to be entertaining. Not the caliber of Sex And The City, but not too bad.

FX.

Nevermind all the fruity patients from week to week. The show is about two people who want for nothing and couldn't be more miserable. Keeps me hooked - I sorta breathe a sigh of relief at the end of each episode (that I don't have to watch anymore). Dark and negative? You bet...

Am trying to catch up with the missed season now on FX. It's like anything goes again.

I see the Columbian Boob importer is back in Miami.....

I have never seen a show go from being so darn good, to being the stupidest show I've ever seen. The first season was just amazing, and now, just when you think it couldn't get any more ridiculous, it does just that. However, with that, I still watch week to week, and like dtw, can't wait for it to be over. It truly is awful now. It's a shame, as it started out so strongly. I am very confident that it will not return next year. I would imagine they have lost much of their following with their stupid plot lines.

Oh well.

+1
I am amazed at how stupit it has become. It feels like they are taking the piss at audience...

Afraid I have to agree. Sad.
