Happy Midnight Burger S2 finale I'm going through it a little

[I didn’t mean to surround myself with people I care about. I meant to do the opposite. I meant to punish myself. But the cosmos, which seem to me to be nothing more than a giant engine of punishment, this one time said “No. This one, we give him friends.” And I think that’s probably fucked me up more than anything.]

[Their name was Shel, and they escaped certain doom on their planet by hitching a ride on a strange comet called Midnight Burger. There they met Gloria The Empire Slayer, Leif the Builder, Ava who communed with mysterious beings, a Wooden Box that spoke of an old God, and some guy named Caspar.]

[CHUCK: Things need each other. You can see it in the stars. Gravity is not a mindless force, it is an intention. A prayer. Things drawn together.]

[CHUCK: Do you not feel that way, Gloria? Walking through a  world of shattered glass? Of disconnected roads? Gaps too far to jump? Lives wasted? I see a woman. She stands in your diner. “Look around you. Do you see a thing done right or a thing done wrong?” Are you not, every day, living a tragedy?]
