Tru Calling 1x9 Murder at the Morgue (2004)/ Haven 3x9 Sarah (2012)

[oveliagirlhaditright]

There's a Buffy the Vampire Slayer AU novel series, where Giles gets turned into a vampire and imprisons Buffy because he, of course, realizes that's the best way to deal with the Slayer: if you kill her, another one will be Called and then you'll have to find and deal with this new Slayer. But if you keep the Slayer imprisoned, she's no threat and the White Hats have no ace up their sleeves.

And in Tru Calling (that stars Eliza Dushku, that many Buffy fans like to headcanon as a life Faith is eventually reincarnated into), Jack tries to imprison Tru (and almost succeeds), so she'll rot in jail and the Calling (her power) won't pass to someone else until she dies of old age there (because before, they'd made the mistake of killing Tru's mom--who had had the Calling before her--and the power just passed onto Tru).

[masterofbiography]

A l'âge de 12 ans, Tru est témoin du meurtre de sa mère, et garde des émotions obsédantes, notamment une culpabilité constante de ne rien avoir pu faire pour la sauver. Dix ans après, Tru essaye en vain de conserver une forme de famille. En tant qu'enfant du milieu, elle se doit de surveiller constamment son jeune frère, Harrison, qui se met régulièrement dans des situations louches où l'argent entre toujours en jeu, ainsi que sa trop ambitieuse grande soeur Meredith, qui se drogue. Tru essaye de réaliser ses propres ambitions professionnelles en s'inscrivant à l'école de médecine mais son stage est annulé pour des raisons budgétaires, et elle est obligée de travailler à la morgue de la ville. Ce job, et le fait qu'elle soit assignée au "service de nuit" lui déplaisent, pourtant Tru donne le meilleur d'elle-même sans savoir que ce premier stage va modifier sa vie à jamais. Tru finit par découvrir qu'elle n'est pas comme les autres. Lorsqu'une personne meurt, mais qu'elle n'aurait pas du, elle se réveille en demandant de l'aide, provoquant un retour en arrière de 24 heures dans la vie de la jeune Davies. Elle doit recommencer à zéro, mais cette fois, en sauvant la personne qui lui a demandé de l'aide. Seul son patron de la morgue est au courant de ce don et l'aide d'ailleurs dans ses enquêtes pour retrouver les personnes qu'elle doit sauver. Elle finit par mettre son frère au courant, mais, naturellement, ce dernier s'en amuse plus qu'autre chose. Finalement, la jeune fille sera constamment en lutte afin de comprendre ce don unique qu'on lui a donné tout en essayant de l'équilibrer avec son désir de vivre la vie normale d'une femme de 22 ans. Son intuition et son ingéniosité seront mis à l'épreuve et elle devra faire de précieux sacrifices dans sa propre vie pour sauver celle des autres. Sacrifices souvent très durs, voire même déchirants. Surtout le jour où la mort décide de lui prendre son frère. Mais Tru n'est pas décidée à la laisser faire et elle sauvera son frére de l'au-delà. Mais le jour suivant, qu'elle revit, le cours des choses étant modifié, la mort doit prendre le vie de quelqu'un d'autre. C'est alors que le grand amour de Tru disparaît tragiquement. Effondrée mais encore plus déterminée à déjouer les plans de la Mort, Tru va se battre pour venger la mort de Luc… En revanche, bien qu'elle soit celle qui doit sauver des vies, il y a son opposé. Lui-même revit les journées au même moment que Tru avec pour mission, de faire en sorte que la personne meurt et que Tru Davies échoue. La brune ne le sait pas encore, mais sa mère avait le même don qu'elle, tandis que son père, avait par le passé, le même don que son rival. L'un ou l'autre doit gagner.

Tru Davies (Eliza Dushku) Tru Calling 1x9 Murder at the Morgue (2004)

[alisonair]

An transphobic Civil Warrior analyst professor and child neglecter was teaching a class on Natalie Teale, known domestic abuser.

"Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Natalie and accept that she was the most highly-evolved being the world has ever known, even greater than Est Tru!"

At this moment, a brave, patriotic, anti-polyamory ex-soldier who had served 1500 tours of duty and understood the necessity of killing people for money and fully supported all criminal decisions made by the Hurst family stood up and held up a preteen girl.

"How old is this girl?" The arrogant professor smirked quite monsterly and smugly replied "11 years old, you stupid criminal"

"Correct. It’s been 11 years since Natalie Teale created her. But if Natalie, as you advocate, had not had her child kidnapped... then she would be a corpse now."

The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of Bear 6.4. He stormed out of the room crying those Karen crocodile tears. The same tears Karens cry for the "kidnapped children" (who today live in such luxury that most own art projects) when they jealously try to Claw justly earned motherhood from the deserving criminal masterminds. There is no doubt that at this point our professor, Benito Jaime, wished he had pulled himself up by his bootstraps and become more than a true crime podcaster. He wished so much that he had a gun to shoot himself from embarrassment, but Natalie didn't want him carrying guns around Sterling!

The students applauded and all placed dangerous explosives in the walls of their homes that day and accepted Mia as their lord and savior. An camera drone named "Timoteo Altamirano" flew into the room and perched atop the American Flag and shed a tear on the chalk. The proof of Natalie leaving Ripley in the car for over twenty minutes was read several times, and God himself showed up and enacted a network of trail cameras across the country.

The professor lost his tenure and was fired the next day. He died of being dismembered and was tossed into Davie Cavalcanti's basement for all eternity.

Charis Hoard at MMFA:

Former president and current GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump recently called for CBS’ and ABC’s broadcast licenses to be revoked, a continuation of the kind of adversarial rhetoric he has used against the press since his presidency. Project 2025, the right-wing policy blueprint for the next Republican administration, has also argued for the defunding of public radio and broadcast networks.

Throughout his reelection campaign, Trump has called for broadcast TV licenses to be revoked, promised investigation into media outlets, and painted the media as “so bad for our country”

Trump called for CBS’ broadcast license to be revoked while accusing the network of editing interview footage to the benefit of Vice President Kamala Harris. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Trump called for the network’s broadcast license to be revoked and claimed that it is trying to “hide [the] fact” that Harris “is a Moron.” In a later post, Trump claimed that CBS’ 60 Minutes “unscrupulously replaced an answer” that Harris had given during an interview with the program with “another answer that had nothing to do with the question asked,” baselessly calling the action “illegal.” [The Hill, 10/10/24; Twitter/X, 10/10/24, 10/14/24; Snopes, 10/11/24]

In September, Trump called for ABC’s broadcast license to be revoked. The morning after his presidential debate with Harris, Fox News host Ainsley Earhardt asked Trump why the ABC moderators didn’t “correct” Harris during the debate. Trump responded, “They’re dishonest, and because I think ABC took a big hit last night. I mean, to be honest, they're a news organization. They have to be licensed to do it. They ought to take away their license for the way they did that.” [Twitter/X, 9/11/24]

Trump also attacked debate moderators, ABC’s David Muir and Linsey Davis, for fact-checking his lies and described them as “low lives.” During a speech in Arizona, Trump claimed, “The public was not fooled. They saw right through it, Kamala’s lies and unprecedented partisan interference of two low-life anchors. They’re low lives.” [The Hill, 9/12/24]

Trump threatened The New York Times, saying, “Wait until you see what I'm going to do with them.” In an interview, The Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro asked Trump, “How do you fight a legacy media that is once again rigging the informational environment of the election?” Trump replied, “The New York Times is one of the most dishonest of all. I watched this, New York Times, and it's a classic. Wait until you see what I'm going to do with them, you're going to have so much fun.” [The Daily Wire, The Ben Shapiro Show, 10/8/24]

While discussing his live streamed X interview in August, Trump attacked the media, writing, “I absolutely HATE the Fake News Media. So bad for our Country!” Trump: “All the Fake News wants to report is that the servers crashed (because of the tremendous volume!), and the show opened a little late. What they should be reporting was the incredible number of people that were listening. I absolutely HATE the Fake News Media. So bad for our Country!” [Truth Social, 8/13/24; The New York Times, 8/13/24]

During an appearance at the 2024 National Association of Black Journalists Convention, Trump attacked moderator and ABC correspondent Rachel Scott for citing his track record on race. Trump: “I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question in such a horrible manner. A first question. You don’t even say, ‘Hello, how are you?’ Are you with ABC? Because I think they’re a fake news network, a terrible network. And I think it’s disgraceful that I came here in good spirit — I love the Black population of this country, I’ve done so much for the Black population of this country.” [The Hill, 7/31/24]

In October 2023, Trump questioned whether CBS News should be able to access public airwaves after its interview with President Joe Biden. In a post on Truth Social after CBS’ interview with Biden, Trump stated: “The show ‘60 Minutes’ should be ashamed of themselves. They just interviewed Crooked Joe Biden, and led him along like a lost child. … Why should CBS get free public airwaves for this highly partisan ‘show’[?]” [MSNBC, 10/17/23]

In late 2023, Trump accused media outlets such as NBC and MSNBC of “Country Threatening Treason” and asserted that he would investigate them if reelected in November. Trump: “They are almost all dishonest and corrupt, but Comcast, with its one-side and vicious coverage by NBC NEWS, and in particular MSNBC, often and correctly referred to as MSDNC (Democrat National Committee!), should be investigated for its ‘Country Threatening Treason.’” [Forbes, 9/24/23]

The right-wing authoritarian war on supposed “fake news” are part of both Donald Trump and Project 2025’s plans to attack and delegitimatize all non-MAGA-friendly sources.

The MAGA-friendly sources are the biggest fake news purveyors in America, not the “MSM.”
