Babylon 5 Rewatch ep 2.20 The Long, Twilight Struggle

Sheridan and Delenn receive an invitation to Epsilon III where Draal pledges the Great Machine to the campaign against the Shadows. Meanwhile Londo commits his Shadow allies to one more attack against the Narn, allowing the Centauri to commit war crimes and end the Narn conflict.

Things I like about The Long Twilight Struggle

1, An energy fluctuation happens on the planet and Corwin turns to his coworkers like “There’s something happening. Contact Commander Ivanova” then the camera drifts to a private quarters. A shower is running. We see the steam as we coast slowly toward the bathroom for a tasteful near nude shot of Claudia Chris—NOPE Bruce Boxleitner. I CACKLED.

2, Draal is great and I love him. It worked out that Sheridan is new here to get a refresher on who Draal is and what’s going on with the Great Machine. Also the Great Machine making him younger is a good way to explain why he’s Herman Munster now. I’m guessing he’ll stay young and vibrant until he disintegrates like the last guy.

3, I appreciate seeing Londo’s true colors in his conversation with Refa. He’s tired, both from the trip to Centauri Prime and of all the war and darkness he’s involved himself in. He’s also still mourning Ursa Jaddo from Knives which was a nice callback considering he had a significant moment of doubt and regret in that episode, and it’s good to be reminded that he’s not totally sold on what’s going on right now. It’s also nice that he’s against the mass drivers at the outset but is convinced to go with Refa’s plan because he considers the glorification of his people more important than himself or anything else. He talks himself into doing something truly horrendous, but it’s wrong and his face knows its wrong. And then Refa makes him watch, when he fully intended to hide from what he’s done. Gguhh the pain is wonderful.

4, Watching this in a rewatch hurts so bad. Like Franklin gives G’Kar a warning about the Centauri’s interest in homeworld. There’s the possibility he can stop it.

5, Delenn and Sheridan go down to Epsilon III she is acting super cocky and in control because she wants to impress her crush, even using clever colorful English phrases. Everyone remembers Abasfrigginlutely Damnit. Oh Delenn….

6, Sheridan looks at the inside of the Great Machine and is like “Lord, I may not go home” and I laughed b/c it looks like Tron in there.

7. The jump-kicking Centauri.

8, The mass drivers really are the most disgusting move. To devastate a civilian population from space is the ultimate ranged weapon. What could they possibly do? Watching Londo watch it happen is peak drama because as disgusted as he is watching, you know he’s as disgusted with himself in facilitating it. The drama is there but also horror on a level few shows can communicate, that of self-horror. The moment earlier where it was established and Londo still had a concept of right and wrong even as he was dealing with the Shadows is pulling full weight here. At the beginning of this season he was a buffoon struggling to stay afloat, in the middle of the season he finds the power and respect he wanted but loses the trust and friendship of the station in the process, and here at the culmination of his choices he sees what he was really willing to sell his soul for. He could have remained powerless and kept his sense of self, but instead he chose advancement and learned to hate what he’s become. It’s just staggering.

9, G’Kar is also pulling full weight in this episode. He’s prepared to go back to Narn, be with his family, and die among his people but he is the only member of the Kha’Ri not on homeworld and being so, he is an in credibly valuable asset for the race now that surrender is unavoidable. The tears in his eyes when asking for sanctuary are soul crushing, and the horror and shame he’s feeling is an inversion of Londo’s… powerlessness and being suppressed despite knowing he could do more verses being powerful and regretting it.

10, The Centauri terms of surrender are so cruel. It’s the turn of a knife that’s already been plunged to the hilt and Sheridan coming in to yank the dagger back an inch like a badass is extremely galvanizing and give Delenn grounds to commit the Rangers to him later in the episode. Also something I want to note about this scene that I think is even more important than Sheridan being a hero, it’s G’Kar sitting in his normal spot in complete despair, enduring Londo’s terms. Londo is dressed in every decoration and medal he’s ever owned, screaming at the top of his lungs like being the loudest makes him the rightest, yet G’Kar is silent. Londo demands G’Kar be removed from the council chambers like an invader. Sheridan replies by recounting the request for sanctuary, resulting on the two fighting over G’Kar’s head, but no one calls the bailiff to come get him. No one except Londo tells him he needs to go. They give G’Kar the chance to move. Even Kosh waits to see what he’s going to do. Will he attack? Will he scream and cry? No. He stands and with every ounce of self control he contains, delivers one of the greatest axefalls in television history.

“No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand. The Centauri learned this lesson once, we will teach it to them again. Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.”

11, AND THATS NOT EVEN THE END OF THE EPISODE! I can’t believe this wasn’t a two-parter with everything that’s happened in this one half an hour of screentime. Sheridan essentially tells G’Kar he’s on his side in this war. He offers G’Kar his hand as an ally, and G’Kar considers it saying; “The last time I offered someone my hand, we were at war 24 hrs later” He pauses to make you wonder if he’s lost the ability to trust, then shakes with Sheridan and the look on his face tells something completely different. He still believes he’ll be at war very shortly, but he’s hoping for it. He’s counting on it.

12, Finally we get the introduction of the Rangers and the only thing that can kind of fit on my “Liked less” list. I like this just fine, but there’s something about Delenn who is in charge of a secret sect of warrior monks pledged to side with the Vorlons against the Shadows, turning the control of those monks over to Sheridan without fully introducing him to their existence. To be fair, she gives him partial control and doesn’t hand it over to him, removing herself from the field and I know having watched the rest of the show that she still is the sole figure in charge of the Rangers and is more accurately pledging herself and those in her service to Sheridan’s cause… but the way they read in this episode it looks like she’s giving Sheridan the reins. The next episode is KIND OF dealing with this with the inquisitor, but in general I think we could have avoided a lot of nonsense if she just phrased her pledge more accurately.

13, And this leads me to a theory… that Babylon5 was labeled their best hope for piece, but really it was built specifically as a neutral ground for the staging of the Shadow war. It really is Babylon 5, as in a replacement for Babylon 4 which was used as a warbase. This is why the Minbari co-founded the station, this is why it ends in fire at the end of everything. It’s existence is specifically tied to the the return of the shadows and the drama and diplomacy of the Narns, Centauri, Telepaths, Earthdome, etc etc are events of the universe that happen to occur there. Wihtout the Shadow War, there’d be no Babylon 5, and without Babylon 5 the universe would not continue.

14.

Finally.

The ARMY OF LIGHT

I got teary-eyed

Things I liked Less about The Long Twilight Struggle

The Delenn thing. But we’ll get back to that next episode. And that’s it.

This episode is truly one of the greatest and most emotionally wrenching pieces of television ever created. It’s a silly scifi show with rubber masks that dares to delve deeper beneath the skin than anything else I’ve seen. We see the horror and depravity of war, but we also see the people turned inside out by it and what colors they are within. Ten out of ten. Thanks for breaking my heart. This is why I had to take pause on my rewatch to prepare.

oh by the way @gin-007 and I are resuming our rewatch from 2019.

and I’m putting all these eps up on @b5picanep as well if you want to go back to see previous episodes.

The Noösphere of Opportunity

Maximizing our presence in the layer of human thought that encapsulates our world

The year was 1926. The 20th edition of the Tour de France was taking place. Consisting of 17 stages and a total distance of 5,745 km. The route circled the borders of France and, on that particular year, cyclists were forced to climb the mountains in the East of the country twice, once at the start of the race and once at the end, an unprecedented occurrence in the competition.

126 cyclists competed in the race, pedaling through trails of wet mud of which the classic 1920’s French automobile, the Citroen, got stuck trying to follow along the winding, mountainous routes. To this day, it remains the longest Tour de France ever contrived in the history of the event.

Not far from the finish line lay situated the University of Paris, metonymically known as Sorbonne. Within the confines of those intricately designed, cathedral-like walls, three geniuses came to agree upon a riveting concept known as the noösphere.

Edouard Le Roy (philosopher), Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (paleontologist) and Vladimir Vernadsky (geochemist) agreed upon their conceptualization of a sphere of human thought — the noösphere — in the sense of a lexical analogy to the geosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere.

Alan Watts, speaking on the subject half a century later, may have summed it up best when he described how it ought to be regarded:

“Earth as a geosphere is covered with a biosphere — that is the sphere of living organisms. The biosphere in turn generates the noösphere which is the communication network that we call the mind. Through literature, through speech, through radio and television communication, the noösphere is slowly realized.”

The word is derived from the Greek word “nous” (mind) and “sphaira” (sphere). It provokes the realization that there exists a high-energy layer of human thought and connectivity that is constructed upon the natural world. It is a nervous system, a shroud of mental inter-connectivity to which we become more and more dependent upon as we detach from the primitive ways of our ancestors. It is fashioned from and by knowledge, exponentially generating more and more information that propels us to unrealized heights of existence.

“It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist.” — Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Now, this was fathomed in 1926 (and arguably as early as 1922). In any event, we’re getting to the doorstep of the century mark from whence this theory was conceptualized. Even Alan Watts, discussing it several decades before the idea of the internet was even brought into being, had been amazed at how the noösphere was materializing so effectively through the use of radio and television connectivity. It would be fascinating to see what the above-mentioned individuals would say about this now, but that’s getting away from the point.

The idea of the noösphere is awe-inspiring in itself not only because of what it proposes, but the way in which it frames our advancement as a civilization. Rather than foraging for information as our ancestors did, we modern humans have come to master it. We’ve found a way to manipulate, proliferate and propagate not only information but the channels through which it flows. As we’re knocking on the doors of 5G network installations and snapping increasingly detailed photos of the cosmos, mining asteroids and sequencing genetics, we may be taking for granted the speed at which data and knowledge can travel — which is on the verge of immediacy.

“The time has come to realise that an interpretation of the universe — even a positivist one — remains unsatisfying unless it covers the interior as well as the exterior of things; mind as well as matter. The true physics is that which will, one day, achieve the inclusion of man in his wholeness in a coherent picture of the world.” ― Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Think about it this way. The average speed of cyclists in the 1926 Tour de France had been 24 km/hr. Today, the average speed of a professional cyclist in a competition on flat terrain is about 40 km/hr. Over the span of close to a mere hundred years, knowledge has been refined by such an unbelievable drastic extent: bikes are lighter and faster — the tread on the tire is maximized to maintain momentum on turns whilst the gears are intricately designed to offer the best acceleration; there are endless pools of knowledge with respect to physical preparation, hydration, nutrition, form, etc. And this is only one tremendously specific field.

In another way to phrase it, noösphere is a stage of our evolution — one that is dominated by consciousness and the mind, which drive the currents of information as if they were streams of wind. Some describe it as a geological phenomenon that is driven by the vital forces of humankind, elemental to the description of this Anthropocene age that we occupy — the human epoch, the time in which humankind is able to influence and manipulate the earth and all of earths matter.

So what of this? Why is this of any significance? Should we simply revere this intangible layer of connectivity? Should we try to take advantage of it? I argue that, if we really become aware of it’s existence, we can maximize our place within it.

“Thought isn’t a form of energy. So how on Earth can it change material processes? That question has still not been answered.” ― Vladimir I. Vernadsky

Unfortunately, and this is where I’ll undoubtedly lose a number of you, as I don’t have any proposition for ways by which we can manipulate it to our immediate and material advantage, at this stage anyway (even though it is benefiting us on a constant basis). But I offer this idea in place: understanding the noösphere allows us to better understand ourselves as an organism within this ever-propagating structure.

Beyond that, it prompts us to realize that we are part of it, we can interact with it. This means sending and receiving information, which in consequence means helping others by sharing our knowledge and jumping on opportunities (a true infinitude of opportunities) to learn about the world for ourselves. We can teach languages to people all around the world; we can take a virtual tour through Rome and Athens; we can debate different interpretations of Dostoyevski’s work with people at every end of the Earth; we can watch in on events that are occurring anywhere at any time.

On a more fundamental level, we’re able to break apart, combine and splice matter, exploit organic and inorganic material, mine and utilize resources in such complex ways. We can do the same when we problem solve, utilizing an array of resources at our disposal, transmuting our mental states and developing ourselves, making the most of out of whats given to us and truly understanding how our minds work. In a blunt way to put it: by understanding the way in which the noosphere works on a collective scale, as it is meant to be understood, we can also understand it on an individual scale.

Subsequently, the layer of consciousness that is strewn about the biosphere allows for information to find itself to and from us whether we intend it to or not, but if we make an active effort to actually engage with it, we can amplify these streams of knowledge all the more.

Lucien Buysse, who crossed the finish line in Paris to seal his victory in the Tour de France of 1926, would have benefited from this network without fully knowing. The rubber for his tires having been manufactured through a genius process of vulcanization; the steampunk-looking goggles that kept mud out of his eyes having made sight along the daunting trails possible; the network of competitors and organizers that sought to defy the biosphere by cycling over it. Lucien Buysse was (and apparently still is) entwined within this sphere of mind and he, to a large extent, unintentionally made use of it, as we all can.

Dragged Kicking and Screaming ( 5/ 22)

Title: Dragged Kicking and Screaming

Or How Burt Hummel Mashed the Hummels and Hudsons Into One Functioning Family.

Characters(s): Kurt, Burt, Carole, Finn, with short appearances by the New Directions guys and various ops who mostly take up space. Rating: PG13 Summary: Somehow the Hummel household and the Hudson household had to come together…

Chapter One Chapter Two

Chapter three Chapter Four

Kurt told Burt as he left Monday morning that he would be home that weekend on Friday evening and to remember he only had the next two weeks of school before his winter break started…and he would be in his room all of his vacation. Finn could share it with him, Kurt was willing to have the room shared, but he would be in his room until they had a new place. Kurt reminded Burt that Kurt wasn’t boarding after school started up again, either. They couldn’t afford it and the only reason he was able to at the moment was because the boy whose space he was taking up had been in Africa with his family until January and Kurt had needed to be on campus to fit in the early morning classes he had to complete the semester. Next semester his earliest class would be 8:30 am, not 6am…like it was currently. Burt was aware he heard Kurt…he remembered thinking that he’d have to speak to Finn about it, but it had been 4 in the morning, so by the time Finn got up and they managed to get him out the door…Burt had pushed the conversation with Kurt aside, for the most part…or at least the talking to Finn part.

Burt made the appointment to seriously start looking for a house Monday morning as soon as he got to work. He didn’t regret his haste in doing so either. He came home to find that Kurt had padlocked his closet shut after removing all Finn’s stuff from it into a pile on Finn’s bed, removed Kurt’s computer (which Finn couldn’t get on anyway because Kurt had it password protected and that had been a constant fight since Kurt started at Dalton in the first place) and stereo system, and removed all the nice towels and all his bedding. Burt assumed at least the towels and bedding were in the closet, although he wasn’t certain the missing electronics were. Burt heard about the missing items all week long. He wasn’t sure why, Finn didn’t use most of them. Burt figured it was probably just the fact that Kurt removed the items that irritated Finn so much. Burt went out during his lunch breaks to see houses with the realtor. He wasn’t making any progress.

When Kurt came home that weekend…with stacks of books and papers that were nearly taller than he was…Burt asked about the electronics and all Kurt did was laugh. Then he locked himself in the bedroom, tossing Finn’s stuff back out. When Burt called him on it Kurt had laid it out for him very blatantly. Kurt had to take the semester finals at Dalton, even though he had been at the school for nearly 4 weeks. Kurt was taking the classes he ought to have been taking as a first semester junior, and had an hour long extra class for catch-up in those where he had to complete every assignment the classes had done before he transferred in. He had four extra classes that Dalton kids HAD to take as freshman or sophomores that he was also taking which had to be completed…every bit that he’d missed. And Dalton students didn’t just have six or seven classes to start off with, they had between eight and twelve…in a system more like a university or foreign school than like McKinley. Kurt was carrying ten non-make-up classes plus the Warblers...which had a grade that dealt with theory. Kurt had to get at the very least a B- in everything to keep on the Warblers as a new transfer student, even though students who were not new to the group only had to maintain a C in all their classes. Dalton taught at a MUCH higher level than anywhere in Lima ever even dreamed of…including the campus. Finn’s behavior the week before lost him several days of studying that Kurt hadn’t been able to afford and put him behind. Kurt promised to show up for meals and do his chores at some point, even a weekend chore or two, and that the electronics were all safe and sound and could come back when Kurt was home.

Finn tossed a tantrum, Carole and Burt fought about certain children’s attitudes…Carole complaining about Kurt and Burt complaining about Finn. Kurt came out for meals, in fact Kurt cooked all three nights, and Kurt’s chores were finished by the time Burt checked at 10pm each night. Kurt even managed to clean out the refrigerator again and do a deep cleaning of the basement area (vacuuming and spot cleaning carpets that was missed the weekend before because of inability to move furniture or get access to rooms, making sure everything that was still out was put away, pulling out chairs and the couch and vacuuming behind those, cleaning the seating, dusting and wiping down shelves and other things). Burt was given a list of damages to shelves, walls, end tables, the sofa and chairs, carpets and other things that happened that Kurt didn’t know about and that weren’t there when he cleaned before Thanksgiving Sunday night. Kurt noted that they could have been there when he quick steamed the carpet downstairs, as he’d done that in a hurry and hadn’t made notes of anything. Finn laughed about the list and basically said ‘so what’ when Burt questioned him and Carole got upset with Burt again when he said that Finn had better figure out some way to fix the damages.

Kurt changed out the china in the cabinet in the dining room so that the Christmas China was on top and in front and set up the small nativity and few porcelain houses and people they had on the bottom shelf. The stuffed snowmen graced the fireplace mantle before the weekend was over. Burt never saw him do so...it just happened. Sunday, Kurt handed his dad a stack of cards and the Christmas Newsletter printouts and reminded him to sign them and mail them out by the Next Wednesday. Kurt also popped his Advent Chocolate in his mouth in front of Finn every morning at breakfast and refused to share the Christmas Cookies he baked at three in the morning Friday night. Finn yelled and whined and Carole responded by telling Burt that Finn needed to be able to use the upstairs TV to make him feel better…gaming with some of his friends. She removed the snowman from the mantle and threw them in the closet when he said that Finn would watch TV on his TV down stairs and he wasn’t having guys over until Finn did his homework, which he knew he hadn’t because he bragged to Kurt that he wasn’t stupid enough to do his homework all weekend like Kurt was. Finn took off on Saturday and Carole didn’t even know where he went and didn’t come in until almost 2am. Burt called Carole and Finn on that, since Finn made so much noise coming home he woke Burt and Kurt. Finn whined and Carole took him out to the movies Sunday afternoon. Burt rolled his eyes and settled into his chair to watch the shows he liked. Hr made a huge production of handing Kurt his money for the big chores he’d completed at dinner. Finn whined to his mom for the rest of the evening when Burt told him he only handed out money for jobs completed...not just because kids wanted it. He said nothing when Finn whined about the room being locked that night either. Kurt had set out clean clothing for Finn, Burt had no reason to fuss at him.

Needless to say, Carole joined Burt in house hunting on Monday, agreeing to two hours an afternoon until they found something they could agree on. It took until Thursday to find one. Moving house wasn’t happening soon enough, in Burt’s opinion. But at least it was happening and neither Finn nor Kurt got to help pick, which would save some fighting. Each boy would have their own bedroom and bathroom, there would be two guest rooms and there was not only a living room, but a den and family room…so Kurt’s stuff didn’t have to mix with Finn’s much. The master bedroom was NOT on the same floor as the other bedrooms and had an office attached to it. There was a large dining room and room off the kitchen that could fit a kitchen table so they could eat less formally. The kitchen was large and had a huge island that people could sit and eat at as well and had a pantry upstairs. The basement wasn’t finished, but was blocked out for three more rooms. The parts finished were the laundry room and the cold storage area, the utility room and a rec room. It had a detached three car garage that Burt could turn into a shop. It would be great for them. However, they ended up not being able to get into a new house until the third or fourth week in January. The family selling it wasn’t moving out until after Christmas and then there were things that needed done before they could move in. Which meant Burt had no reason to not allow Finn’s and Carole’s Third Annual Hudson Lights party on Saturday.

And maybe if finals week hadn’t been so stressful for Kurt, 15 classes worth tests or presentations in 4 days (Warblers had been finished the week before, grade wise.) Burt found out later, and if Kurt hadn’t come home on Friday morning to then do a full day of charity work at the garage so that Tad Williams’ minivan would be fixed in less than 24 hours, (Tad had shown Kurt how to change the belts in Ford trucks when Kurt was a younger teen and didn’t even mind when all Kurt talked about was musicals, even though Tad himself had never heard of any of them. Kurt had admired than man since then, even when Tad stopped working at the shop and went to work mechanics at the John Deere place on the other side of town.), since Tad’s wife was due with kid four three days prior and that minivan was their only vehicle, Kurt would have managed not to blow up for the whole of Saturday and kept his temper in check like he’d managed at Thanksgiving. However, the circumstances leading to Kurt’s explosion were indeed in place.

When Kurt had gotten into town at 10am Friday and stopped at the shop, he’d looked wiped out and Burt was seriously worried about his health at the point. However when Kurt found out about Tad’s situation, Kurt had taken on the job and refused the pay (which he knew would make Christmas near impossible for the family). It had unfortunately taken him until 2am to finish since had to drive around hunting down the parts needed and then fix the vehicle. Kurt nearly logged more time calling around to find parts and then driving from place to place picking up parts than he’d logged driving to and fro from Dalton. Burt knew he and the others would never have managed to get the van done that day…it would have taken them a full week. But Kurt had had it finished and delivered to Tad’s house so it was there when Tad woke and they had it ready to go when Tad’s wife went into labor Saturday night near midnight.

Love Yourself: Highlight Reel

Before you start: Make sure to read the HYYH, WINGS, YNWA and Love Yourself: The Notes theory first! Otherwise nothing will make sense!

Let’s GOOO with the Highlight Reel:

To be honest, there is not a lot to say about this. It seems as if Jungkook was trying to go somewhere/leave but the girl holds him back. They probably met after Jungkook’s accident and became friends.

Suga has the girl by his side instead of Jungkook. Remember how he abandons the piano and two years later he found Jungkook playing it? The fact that Suga right now is playing the piano means that he started again, meaning that after his mother’s death, he found his piano again. Now, as we know from WINGS/YNWA and also from the note, Jungkook should be the reason why Suga started playing again since Jungkook is supposed to be his piano (happiness/dreams etc). But we have the girl. So, this shows us that JK really was “replaced” by her.

The girl takes care of him.

JUNE 6 Rapmon and the girl on the bridge:

Namjoon watches as the girl struggles with some stuff He only helps her pick up some stuff and notices the hair band that she uses

JUNE 18:

V keeps the girl from stealing/doing something bad.

MAY 31

Jimin, Jhope and the girl are together. And Jimin films them dancing.

MAY 31 NOTE

In the HR, Jhope is reminded of his mother by that girl and since the note is from the same day, I going to assume that in the note Jhope is also talking about the girl. In both the HR and this note is he reminded of his mother by her. I think when he says, “I have not been able to look at the face of a friends I’ve known for over a decade” it is just a figure of speech because it’s impossible for him to have known the girl for over a decade.) Also, I was confused about why he said “he threw me a towel” so I asked the translator @snoweflake_dee and she said that it actually wasn’t mentioned if it’s a he or she etc so she just wrote he.

Now that I know that this makes more sense because in this whole note he is talking about the girl and it would be weird if we suddenly had a he.

The woman (his mom) said “Hoseok-ah” and then left him:

The girl asks him where he is going and since he has mentioned before that she reminds him of his mother, we can assume that after she asks him where he is going and says “Hoseok-ah” he is reminded of the time his mother said “Hoseok-ah” and then left him

His mother leaving + him having to stay in an orphanage + his pills This all mean that he has something like depression And remember what I said back in the beginning of this whole theory (back in WINGS):

The HR and the notes prove that he really was having problems.

Then we see V:

He’s with the girl. That’s the same place Jin met “his” girl (his partner)

V looks at his phone, which is his only way of contacting the other boys since they have split up after the fight. Then we see some of his memories:

Suga is me 24/7

Remember these moments? They were from the prologue. In the prologue they were shown as “happy times/moments” from Jin’s illusion/dream world BUT:

This means that that (picture above) moment really did happen, which is why we see V remembering it.

There is one more thing:

Does this look familiar?:

Remember what this scene meant in the prologue?

Because of this once scene we found out how Jin died (= drowning with car)

The sound of cicadas that chirred like showers end in an instant. In the abrupt silence, I realize life’s immense beauty. Just the fact that you are in it makes all the difference. Even if this were a dream, this is where I choose to be.

It shows that he, just like Jin (you’ll see later on), chooses to stay with the girl instead of being with the boys. He “throws” away the thing with which he could contact the boys. He remembers the time he spent with them and decides to keep them as memories and not start new things with the boys.

Then we see Nams:

Once again, Namjoon only watches her from afar and doesn’t make a move. Having already noticed her yellow hair band, he decides to give her a new one. Before she can notice, he just puts it next to her while getting off the bus.

Jungkook and the girl, who is also sick. And they notice a girl singing. That girl being Suga’s girl:

And right after that, Jungkook remembers the time he spent with Yoongi:

Why? I think its because of the melody/music/song that the girl is playing. Maybe it’s a song that Suga played next to Jungkook (pic above), or just a piece that Jungkook and Suga like. After he hears the girl, Jungkook walks closer:

Meaning that he probably recognized Suga’s lighter. Now: We already know that Suga and the girl are pretty close. And if durning this time, Jungkook and Suga had been close as well, then Jungkook would know who that girl is or why she has the lighter. But him being surprised shows us that Jungkook does not know anything about the girl or the lighter. This could mean that Jungkook and Suga haven’t talked in a long time. But anyways this proves that, Jungkook really isn’t Suga’s piano anymore. Jungkook was replaced by that girl. Also:

This is the same room/apartment. Jungkook and Suga were together at some point. Before there was the girl. Back then it was Suga, Jungkook and the piano, meaning that, as said before, Jungkook realy did become Suga’s piano (=> happiness etc) after they “re-met” on APRIL 7th. And back then, the apartment was still empty. But after Jungkook and Suga stopepd talking, it is now Suga, the girl and the piano.

BEAUTIFUL

They look so cute omg Anyways, here we once again have Jimin filming Jhope and the girl while they’re dancing

Now to this part.

Suga checks his phone but judging from the frustrated face he makes afterwards, I am guessing that he was waiting for a call or a message but didn’t get anything. Whose message/call is he waiting for? Probably the girl. Because right now, the girl is the only person Suga is close to. He is not talking to the other boys, so who else could it be?

He was about to take out a cigarette when he stops and smiles. It is obvious that he is thinking about the girl since she was the one who made him stop. So, while waiting for a message/call from her, he gets frustrated and wants to smoke but then he remembers that the girl doesn’t want him to. He then starts smiling at the thought of her.

He literally falls down to see who is calling him.

But there is no smile whatsoever. He just stares at the name. Why would he look like this if it was the girl calling? He was waiting for her call and was smiling while thinking about her. So, why that face?

Just when he sees the name, Jin says this: Why is it that the happiest moments usher in sudden fear? Looking back, I had known all along that underneath the glittering world before my eyes lay my deception, that everything was to collapse with a breath of wind. I turned away, sidestepped, simply closed my eyes. Afraid I was, afraid to be loved for who I am.

Suga was somewhat happy while thinking about the girl and waiting for her call. But then someone else (we don’t know who) called. And it doesn’t look like he is happy (he seems different)

I think the note and that call scene are connected. Because in that note he finds out something bad.

Now before I continue explaining what I mean, I gotta says this: You might think but the girl is next to him in the note? And he gets a message not a phone call? But the thing is: Even if we were to look at Jhope’s note from MAY 31 and the Highlight Reel scene from MAY 31, there are many differences, even though it is the same day. In the note there is no cake. The girl is already there. Jhope doesn’t even mention Jimin. What I am trying to say is that the notes and the scenes from the highlight reel don’t completely match, even though they’re about the same day. Because Jhope is reminded of his mother when he gets that cake from the girl, not after she calls his name.

So just because in the note the girl is next to Suga, it doesn’t mean that it cannot be and on the same day as that phone call scene from the Highlight Reel.

Now, if we assume that they’re on the same day, it would make a lot of sense. Because in the note, we find out that Suga gets a message that makes his “heart feel heavy”. Suga must have heard something bad.

And after finding out, Suga loses it.

what is this screenshot even loool Then we see the how the girl catches up to him but Suga pushes her away. He doesn’t want to stay by her side. Why? Suga was expecting her to call, he was happy while thinking about her and now he pushers her away. All this after getting that call. This means that whatever he found out makes him frustrated and angry enough to push her away. What did he find out? The only thing that comes to my mind is Jungkook’s car accident. Because look: On JUNE 14, we see Jungkook in the hospital on a wheelchair and on JUNE 13, Jin finds out that Jungkook got hurt. This means that the accident must have happened before the 13th. And on the 8th, Suga gets a call that makes his heart feel heavy and scares him.

And we also have this. If it really is true that on that day, Suga found out about the car accident, then his behaviour would make sense (if you look at everything we have here) Even though Suga and Jungkook aren’t talking anymore, it doesn’t mean that their friendship is completely forgotten or anything like that. Jungkook was still the one who helped him “play the piano again” and it was still Jungkook who became his piano years after his mother’s death. But then they drifted apart and Suga only focused on the girl. And during the time he didn’t “care” about Jungkook, he got hurt. Also:

There are two options:

1. Suga does visit Jungkook but he doesn’t tell Jungkook about the girl or the fact that he stopped smoking. 2. Suga doesn’t visit him at all. [He might have gone to the hospital.

I think that the second one is more likely. Why? Because Suga feels guilty. While Jungkook was in that accident, Suga wasn’t with him. Remember what Suga said in his note moments before finding Jungkook in front of that piano in that shop?

He couldn’t protect Jungkook and he couldn’t stay by his side. Instead he was with the girl. And I think that because of that he is frustrated with/angry at himself. Because both in WINGS and in YNWA, Suga was seriously affected by Jungkook. Be it the way JK wanted to help him when Suga was at his worst or be it Jungkook’s death. So, why wouldn’t it affect him now?

Suga is angry at himself and he is frustrated, that’s why he pushes the girl away. Staying by her side and being happy might not feel right when Jungkook is hurting.

It actually was RUNCH RANDA and V but now its:

But now it is V and the girl. They do this “together”.

They see the police and run away.

They try to hide but V tells the girl something and walks out. At the end, he gets caught.

Rapmon and the girl. But once again Rapmon is just watching.

When Namjoon was there, the black spot/writing below the “I’m fine” was not there, meaning that the thing with V happens after that bus scene with Rapmon.

Anyways. Rapmon sees all the stuff that is written there and he is reminded of V.

And he just walks away.

We see Jhope and the girl dancing together. The room is lit brightly.

Jimin practises alone. His surroundings are dark. And there is no one else besides him.

In the next scene, Jimin and the girl accidenlty hurt each other? [To be honest, that scene just seems a bit off, I don’t know why but it does.] What could have happened: After practising alone, Jimin tries dancing with the girl. But he does something wrong and they end up hurt.

After getting hurt, the girl is being carried (probably to the hospital) by Hoseok but Jimin isn’t next to them.

It seems as if he sees something and then turns back. I think the reason why Jimin goes back is because he feels guilty. Remember:

I cannot give you a 100% right answer here, just like in some of the other explanations. There is not a lot about Jimin and Jhope in the notes and in the Highlight Reel and most of the stuff that we see/read isn’t very helpful when it comes to connecting these facts/theories. The only thing I can say now is: Maybe the reason why Jimin and Jhope were together for so long and only had one girl is because they’re special? What I am trying to say is: In WINGS, they were the innocent ones. Jimin chose evil because he was manipulated by Suga, not because he truly had evil thoughts since the beginning. Jhope changed after watching all of his friends become evil. He didn’t have a reason to stay good anymore. But they both were the ones who stayed together the longest. They shared the same “ideas” and tried their best to believe that the happy times could come back.

And maybe they also have that type of bond in Love Yourself? To be honest, I really am not sure… there is just not enough stuff to anything about those two. Looks like we’ll have to wait for more to find out the real reason.

At the end of the HR he throws away something? I don’t know what it is, maybe a hair band?

We see a happy and healthy Jungkook on his way to the girl with some flowers. But:

But the girl is gone.

Where is she? There are two possibilities: 1. After Jungkook was released, she was healthy again and left the hospital, which would mean that she broke off contact with Jungkook. 2. She died and Jungkook doesn’t know.

To be honest, number 2 would make a lot more sense since it would mean that instead of Jungkook, the girl died.

Moving on, let’s come to the most interesting part: [This is what Jin says during the Highlight Reel. What he says here is related to not only his emotions etc, but you can connect these paragraphs with the boys’ emotions etc as well. But right now, we’ll just focus on Jin] Some moments become more vivid with the passage of time. Yesterday’s many encounters and goodbyes existed for this moment. Every alley and crossroad I walked through were all meant to lead me to this very place. That kind of moment is what I mean.

To be able to completely understand and connect stuff like those paragraphs, I always “rephrase” them and try to make them less… confusing? So I will add that here as well in case someone also needs that ^^

Talking about a special moment => for this one moment he had all those goodbyes and encounters, all the alleys and crossroads were supposed to bring him here (=> sounds a lot like fate lol) becomes more vivid with the passage of time = what does he mean by that? Vivid = very clear, powerful, and detailed => Some moments become more clear, powerful and detailed with the passage of time.

Now this all sounds as if he’s reflecting. Only after some time does he realise the importance and “real meaning” behind that one moment. What moment? The moment Jin met the girl.

Because of that one person, life becomes beautiful and even if this “beautiful life” is just a dream, this is where he wants to stay. or better said: Because of that girl, Jin’s life becomes beautiful again (by “forgetting” his problems and only focusing on the girl). And even if this beautiful life is just a dream and not reality, Jin wants to stay here. Why? Because reality is full of problems.

Why is it that the happiest moments usher in (to make an activity or process begin/introduce ) sudden fear? Looking back, I had known all along that underneath the glittering world before my eyes lay my deception, that everything was to collapse with a breath of wind. I turned away, sidestepped, simply closed my eyes. Afraid I was, afraid to be loved for who I am.

By “choosing to stay in that dream”, “ignoring the problems” and only “focusing on the girl”, Jin was deceiving himself into believing that his world was beautiful. Deep down, he knew that with just a breath of that wind (Note from June 13 – humid wind shaking picture – if you don’t remember go back), everything could collapse, but he chose to ignore it. He “turned away, sidestepped and simply closed his eyes”. Why? Because he was afraid of reality. Reality meant problems. And to be able to solve these problems he has to face himself (Note from June 13) To be happy with the boys, he has to face himself, but he doesn’t have the courage to do so. Because he knows that once he does that, he’ll find his real self. And he is scared to be loved for who he really is. His real self can’t be loved but he wants to stay with the girl, that’s why he says, “Not yet” (Note from June 13)

This is the day Jin gets the flowers and goes to meet the girl.

And what he is holding right now is the girl’s notebook that she dropped on JUL 11 – the day Jin saw her. And in her notebook we see the Smeraldo flower. (Underneath the picture it says “Mysterious flower”.) The girl was interested in that flower. And that is why Jin wants to buy her those flowers.

He wants to make her happy. He wants to be a good person. He believes that by making her happy, he can become a good person. But he is just deceiving himself because he can’t face himself. He knows that the boys are/are going to be “unhappy” because avoiding a problem doesn’t mean that it is solved. It still is there and keeps getting bigger and more complicated. And deep down, Jin knows that but he doesn’t have the “courage” to talk to the boys and get rid of his guilt. Instead of doing that, he completely focuses on someone else and give his everything to make that person (the girl) happy because he thinks that by making her happy he and his world can become good.

This is the same as in WINGS – it’s the same principle – he deceives himself into thinking everything is alright (WINGS – dream world) or he avoids it (LY) and focuses on the girl.

He takes something.

Then the car leaves. That car being:

[this picture is from @ktaebwi)

Meaning that Jin took the flowers now.

And he waits for the girl.

And then BAM

The girl dies before Jin can give her the flowers. Just like that owner and the man from the Smeraldo story. In the end, Jin couldn’t make her happy the way he wanted to. And his beautiful world collapsed with a breath of wind. VIOLET LIGHT hah back at it with the colours huh :’) Violet:

He couldn’t make the boys happy, so he wanted to at least make the girl happy. But she died because of him, just like how the boys had died.

V committing suicide.

Jungkook dying in a car accident.

V killing his father.

Jin letting down the six lily petals (the boys).

Jimin’s desire to commit suicide.

Suga’s fight with Jungkook.

Jungkook getting hit.

Jhope’s overdose.

V and the darkness.

If we could turn back the clock, where should we go back to? Once we reach that place can all our mistakes and errors be undone? Will happiness be ours to stay?

These were all things that happened in WINGS. But the clock was turned back. Jin turned it all back to before all of this this happened. From WINGS to YNWA and then all the way back to Love yourself. And did it help? Were his mistakes and errors undone? Was happiness his to stay?

Though many seasons pass, there are places that cannot be reached. Yet another storm to be faced and to be weathered head-on. Loving without fear. Hesitating and parting. Merely living as the person I am.

No, it didn’t work. And we are back on the 30th of August and Jin doesn’t leave to meet the girl. Instead, he picks up the Lilies. The Lilies that he always let down.

Until now, the boys always ended up suffering in a way. First it was because of Jin’s death. Then it was because of them parting ways. And both times, Jin was the one who “let them down”.

Even though WINGS and LY are different stories, there are still some things that are similar. - In both, relationships/bonds are broken. In WINGS: First it was Jin’s and a girl relationship, then his and the boys’ (Jin dying) and lastly, the special pairs (for ex. Jungkook and Suga fighting). In LY: First Jin’s and the boys’ friendship, then the other six boys’ friendship and lastly the relationship with their “newly found” special partners (for ex. Suga and the girl fighting). - People die. Jungkook and Jin died in WINGS, which is the main reason why Jin went back in time (set the turning point all the way back) But in LY, Jungkook and Jin don’t die. Instead, Jin’s “girlfriend” dies. (and most probably Jungkook’s friend as well)

But now, we go back to the 30th again. And instead of letting the Lilies fall

He picks them up.

I also wanted to include the posters:

The direction my heart flows, the day I want to run to that place. / Don’t come closer. You’ll be unhappy. / I lied, there is no reason to love someone like me. / It’s not the right time, so I’ll just look at you from afar behind you. / If I had made a different choice, would they have stayed? / I’m okay as long as you shine. / If I can turn back time, I want to become the best man in the world.

- The direction my heart flows, the day I want to run to that place. / Don’t come closer. You’ll be unhappy.

After Suga left school in YEAR 20, Jungkook was worried and wanted him to come back. Even after 2 years, we see Jungkook in front of a piano, thinking about Suga. But when Suga arrived in front of that instrument shop, he said that he didn’t want to hurt anyone and that he didn’t want to be close to anyone. And I think these posters are supposed to show that.

- I’m okay as long as you shine. / I lied, there is no reason to love someone like me.

I think we still don’t know enough about Jimin and Jhope to say what these sentences really mean and in how far they are connected. We only know that while staying in the hospital, Jimin lies about not being able to remember something. We still don’t know what that is though

- It’s not the right time, so I’ll just look at you from afar behind you. / If I had made a different choice, would they have stayed?

I think Rapmon’s sentence can also be connected to how his friendship with V went wrong in WINGS. Because instead of really helping V, he didn’t really do anything and that’s why V died. But I can’t really say anything more to that.

- If I can turn back time, I want to become the best man in the world. / If I could turn back time, I want to go back to the sea of that summer.

I think this is pretty obvious. I already explained how Jin went back in time from WINGS to YNWA and then lastly LY (at the end he goes back to AUG 30th again). He wants to go back to that sea of that summer (back when the boys were together and happy) and he wants to be a good man.

~~~~

So, this is all I have for y’all :D I think what BTS is trying to tell us is that you have to first love yourself and accept everything about yourself, so that others can love you as well. Because the more you try to change, the more you will pay attention to the “imperfections”, meaning that you will never be satisfied. I think.

Sadly, there is still a lot I can’t explain, but I hope I didn’t disappoint you guys. Once again, I’m sorry that it took so long. But I hope you enjoyed it! To be honest, compared to HYYH, WINGS and YNWA, this one was a bit more… tiring to write? That might be because we still don’t know a lot about Love Yourself or because of the fact that I was half sick while working on this :’) But nonetheless, I had a lot of fun ^^.

I know that the Love Yourself theory is quite confusing and if you have any questions, just ask! It doesn’t matter if it’s something small. And if you have anything you want to share regarding this theory, feel free to tell me.

Sorry if I have any typos!!!

Video(s) I used: The Highlight Reel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHdK5U2hf4o

The posters: https://www.instagram.com/bts.bighitofficial/

The notes: Jin’s note from JUNE 13th You get the other notes with the album!

All of that above belongs to BigHit Entertainment. This whole theory is about BTS and their music videos, short films, solos, lyrics. The pictures of the boys are ALL FROM THE MUSIC VIDEOS/HIGHLIGHT REEL. I do not own them. I will only explain their meanings and connections.

Since I don’t know Korean, I used the translated version of the notes. The ones with the pink background belong to @snowflake_dee (Twitter). Apart from that, the translation of the Smeraldo flower/blog is from @ktaebwi

Please do not copy my theory. I really put hours, days and weeks into all of this, so don’t let it go to waste. If you want to share it or anything like that, just ask me and I will tell you if it’s okay or not. But do not copy this without my consent. Thank you.

I am always open for feedback! I would love to hear our guys’ opinion :D

TGIWednesday... this truly borders on magic

TGIWednesday News

Each day I hear this from someone I'm working with, “it can’t be this easy!” ..... but really it is. It’s an energetic kind of thing and scientific too. Tesla said, "There is only energy, frequency and vibration." What I know and believe is that if you can line up with those and find the word tracks, then you can change any and everything because it's all made up of the same stuff. It truly borders on magic, it really does. Arthur C. Clark wrote, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”. cool right? and after all, isn’t everything made up from our thoughts and then turns into a creation? Cooking recipes, scientific outer space unproven theories, art, music, acting! So know that My Liquid Fish® Change made simple® CAN be that simple, I see it every day - you read it here in the "fish box" every week... like I've often said, show me something that's faster, deeper and cheaper and I'm in - but for me, this is IT. ....Have you learned all the lessons that you needed to from your current dilemma or challenge? Is that issue still serving you? When working on yourself, Own that with a statement, test it to see if it's a yes or no, and then fish it to Change it! Pose those questions as statements and watch what unfolds! It will be indistinguishable from magic! ------------------------- Hey, if you've booked a session with me in the past, or plan on it in the near future... know that I will be switching over to using an online booking calendar so you can self-schedule your appointment with me. Should be pretty straight-forward, you can pick an available time/date automatically shown in YOUR time zone and we'll both get confirmation emails and reminders, and as usual, I will still call you at the number you provide. May be a little bumpy at first (technology isn't my favorite) but it'll cut out a ton of back and forth emails and I know we can both appreciate that time-saver.

If you love the audio mp3s...know that I'm working on "Fountain of Youth" right now about re-activating your youth gene, reversing aging/anti-aging and time traveling back to refresh/restore points in your body, mind and spirit age where we had supple skin and youthful, vibrant energy. And then "Financial Windfall", the 4th in a series on money and increasing your wealth, attracting abundance and finding what will make you truly happy! Making it easier by removing the stuck and overwhelm blocks and allowing good fortune to find you.

"Hi Jimmy, I’m using the “I will prevail with refinancing with grace and ease” word-track daily which tests positive every time.........Will also listen to your abundance MP3’s again today. I sure need help in that area cos my thinking is all about lack and what I think I tend to bring forth - surprise, surprise.

Just a day and a half into the parasite protocol and 3 doses of the new antibiotic that is energetically better for me. Thanks also for adding some of the concerns into the daily prayers. Who would ever think parasites could cause such trouble?! Nasty beasties! I'll handle the yucky liquid to feel better so quickly. I suppose I better add a quarterly parasite cleanse into my routine to keep these critters from taking over! Thanks as always for your gifts that point in the right direction, your time, and selfless service to your clients." - L.J.

On Sunday morning, Rudy Giuliani, as he so reliably will, made news on cable news: Appearing on the CNN show State of the Union, the president’s lawyer turned surrogate told Jake Tapper that—despite the Mueller report having found insufficient evidence to conclude that the Trump campaign had colluded with a hostile power in the run-up to 2016—there’s “nothing wrong with taking information from Russians.” The revealing goal-post displacement got as much attention as you’d expect, and that meant that something else got attention as well, as video of Giuliani’s comment pinged around the internet: the April 22 event that CNN has been advertising, in recent days, with gladiatorial gusto. “CNN PRESIDENTIAL TOWN HALLS: TOMORROW,” went the chyron underneath the viral “Giuliani: ‘Nothing Wrong’ With Getting Info From Russians” clip. The graphic helpfully informed viewers about the timing of that event: back-to-back town halls featuring Amy Klobuchar (at 7 p.m. ET), Elizabeth Warren (8 p.m.), Bernie Sanders (9 p.m.), Kamala Harris (10 p.m.), and Pete Buttigieg (11 p.m.). The coverage, CNN’s chyron promised at one point, via a countdown clock aired later on Sunday, is “25 HRS 45 MIN 20 SEC” away.

It wasn’t that long ago that cultural critics worried about TV’s way of turning politics into a form of amusement, coining terms such as infotainment and media events to convey anxieties about what happens when the high stakes of politics collide with the low ones of daily distraction. Those days seem quaint now, and they seem quainter still when CNN spends weeks plugging the quintuple-header that it is hosting on Monday in conjunction with the Harvard Kennedy School’s Institute of Politics. Town halls, merging the intimacies of direct democracy with the implied distance of the TV screen, are throwback events that also neatly capture some of the tensions of politics as they’re practiced in the present: They marry versions of policy wonkery—discussions of health care, immigration, education, gun safety—with the primary-colored flashiness of cable news. And they tangle the promises of American politics with the demands of American celebrity.

In the months-long lead-up to Monday’s combined event, Kamala Harris did a town hall; Cory Booker did a town hall; Bernie Sanders did a town hall; Elizabeth Warren did a town hall; John Hickenlooper did a town hall; Tulsi Gabbard did a town hall; Howard Schultz did a town hall; Pete Buttigieg did a town hall; Amy Klobuchar did a town hall. There have been many more. Each appearance has tested not only a given candidate’s stances on some of the issues that will be at play in 2020, but also broader questions: What does political charisma look like now that the definition of that quality may finally be expanding? What does an American leader act like in the year 2019?

The town halls work, basically, like this: They put presidential candidates and potential voters together in a single room, to exchange ideas—a mass-mediated version of the flesh-pressing politics that used to be, and in some formats remains, the American norm. In CNN’s version, members of the audience, preselected for the opportunity, ask questions of the candidates, typically reading—and sometimes shaking with understandable nervousness—from slips of paper; the candidates answer the questions; the audience, often, applauds. (The crowds are frequently but not always self-declared supporters of the candidates.) The moderators of the events—CNN anchors such as Tapper, Don Lemon, Erin Burnett, and Wolf Blitzer—occasionally intervene, asking their own questions or following up when a candidate has neglected to answer an audience member’s query.

“Oh, this is fun!” Elizabeth Warren exclaimed during the town hall she held in March. The remarkable thing was that she appeared to have meant it.

For the audience, part of the appeal of the town halls comes from the fact that they can be much more than fun: They are also thoroughly high-stakes for the politicians participating in them. Buttigieg has risen in the polls and in the national conversation in part because of his performance last month at his (first) CNN town hall, before an audience at the South by Southwest festival in Austin. “Buttigieg Feels Momentum After CNN Town Hall, With $600K Raised in 24 Hours,” a headline—from CNN—went, a few days after the March 10 event concluded, citing numbers from a Buttigieg campaign aide. CNN wasn’t alone in that analysis: In a piece explaining the recent “Buttigieg boom,” Vox traced the bump in attention and funding to the South Bend, Indiana, mayor’s “breakout performance at a CNN town hall in early March.” Google Trends agrees with the assessment: It records the search interest in “Pete Buttigieg” as spiking in mid-March—just after he joined Tapper on CNN’s makeshift stage.

The town halls, in that way, can have the feel of a religious ritual: They profess a faith in the power of the political conversion experience. They assume that there are minds, among both studio audiences and those watching at home, that are capable of being changed. Last week, Sanders appeared at a town hall on the Fox News channel, an event co-moderated by the anchors Martha MacCallum and Bret Baier, and the collision of left and right resulted in … a small political victory for the democratic socialist. “By the end of the town hall,” Vox noted, “audience members were booing the occasional Baier or MacCallum follow-up, even doing call-and-response with Sanders.”

For CNN, the town halls offer a different kind of proposition: They offer ratings without an overt admission of political partisanship. In March, CNN’s average audience from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET numbered 884,000, while Fox’s was 2.66 million and MSNBC’s was 2.12 million. The latter networks use that time for opinion shows that in turn bring in audiences. And the town halls, Reason’s Matt Welch notes, have offered CNN some fairly reliable ratings bumps: Harris’s first town hall, on January 28, brought in 1.96 million viewers; Klobuchar’s brought in 1.17 million; Warren’s brought in 1.09 million.

And, so: As the Democratic field grows, so do the events that promise to showcase that field’s hopefuls to potential voters. On April 9, Kirsten Gillibrand participated in one with Burnett. On April 10, it was Washington Governor Jay Inslee (with Blitzer). On April 11, it was former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro, with Lemon. On April 14, the network hosted a doubleheader with the businessman Andrew Yang and the author Marianne Williamson—the latter of whom is perhaps best known as Oprah Winfrey’s spiritual adviser. These are opportunities for candidates and for CNN itself, which also uses the events to practice a version of vertical integration. CNN hosts the town halls, using its anchors as moderators; it airs the events; and then it reports on the town halls’ happenings, dividing their action into video clips and sound bites and fact-checks and article-length assessments of the candidates’ performances. After Buttigieg’s town hall, a commentator praised his “star turn”; the commentator was writing for CNN.

It’s turtles, all the way down to Super Tuesday. And while Fox and MSNBC have run their own town halls, it is CNN that has most eagerly invested in them. (It has done so, sometimes, at its reputational peril: See the criticism the network received after devoting a town hall to the former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, the as-yet-undeclared independent candidate who has seemed to assume his chief qualification for a presidential run to be his status as a billionaire.) That might give the network king- (or, given this field, queen-) making power in a crowded primary; it might simply mean that CNN is adding to the noise of a hectic nominee-selection process. Or it may be that the town halls find a new way to call the culture’s bluff. While the town halls are ostensibly realizations of voters’ hunger for more substantive conversations with candidates, they can also double as showcases for the opposite: sound bites. Gaffes. Memes. Viral moments. The fireworks of the presidential debates, without presidents or debates.

“This is just a theory,” the MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace put it, leading a panel discussing Buttigieg’s CNN town-hall performance, “but I think as many people are watching and waiting for these moments … as are watching the polls.” It’s a good theory. And it helps to explain why, on Monday morning, CNN repeatedly cut away from its news coverage to show an empty stage in Manchester, New Hampshire: a set lit dramatically in red and blue, devoid as yet of actors or audience—an embedded advertisement for CNN that doubled, if you squinted in just the right way, as an ad for democracy.
