Listening to George Miller talking to Hideo Kojima about the importance of threads running through a narrative (like a tapestry) is fascinating. His example of Dementus' hounds being visibly shown as having a taste for human blood, thus demonstrating without words how Dementus is able to track Furiosa and wounded Mary Jabassa (even after the wind erased the tire tracks of their bike) was so good!

And then it hit me smack in the heart, because that thread emerges again...

...when Dementus unleashes his hounds on Jack. Because they're wholly focused on Jack, because the sand being churned up by his execution hides Furiosa, the dogs never break off from their feast. Jack's blood distracts and consumes the dogs, allowing Furiosa to escape on a bike. Mary's blood dooms her to capture, torture and death, while Jack's blood and the sand thrown into the air throughout his death saves Furiosa.

And! The first time Jack realises that something is very wrong in the Bullet Farm, it's a wordless moment where he sees one of the dogs with a human foot in its mouth. Later he is torn to pieces by that dog, among several others.

And!!! Dementus saves Furiosa from being dragged into one of the holes of the Citadel, rescuing her from the Maggot Farmer, breaking her chain and taking her onto his bike-drawn chariot. During the Battle of the Bullet Farm, Furiosa throws Jack a grappling hook attached to her bike and saves him by dragging him up a cliff. And then (once more with gusto) Jack is tortured to death by being dragged after a bike on the end of a chain, while Furiosa is dragged up into the air by another chain wrapped around her arm.

THREADS. TAPESTRIES.

Mary & George — Episode 3 "Not So Much as Love as by Awe"

[behindthesefangirleyes]

I think what’s deeply distressing about tonight’s episode is how unassuming a day can be & then the unthinkable happens.

Mary will always remember that her last words to her husband were nagging George to be on time. Missy will remember turning down her dad’s offer to give her a ride. Sheldon will remember ignoring his dad as the latter left the house.

Which is so fitting, because we know in TBBT that Georgie had to navigate so much in their family’s grief. And Georgie? He got the best ending with his dad. A real sweet moment. Ergo, he would’ve also had the “best” emotional bandwidth to deal with it, but it wouldn’t make it any less painful.

2 minutes of George and Amanda playing off of each other with perfect comedy/rp instincts to characterize Mary and her relationship with her mom. And fire. And dad. (Press F to pay respects to Mary's Dad's iguana's tail.) (He gets out sometimes.)

some lines with perfect (imo) delivery:

"I was gonna say don't make them eat all the ingredients in the fridge but then I decided I wanted to do that, so."

"What's this ingredient thing you were talking about???"

"Mom, someone could get a stomachache."

"And I'm sorry about dad's apartment." "Yeah. We're all sorry about that."

"Yeah, your dad is fine. His iguana is not fine."

"He's a reptile guy." "Yeah that was a choice-" "Probably the only thing I liked about him."

"Well, listen, just go have fun. No burners. No fires. I cannot stress that enough. No fire no burners."

"Okay. The more you say fire the more I keep just thinking fire." "Great, I'm going to stop saying it!" "Okay!"

The lil sneaky kiss. :')
