Wow...Atsali is about as tactful in revealing familial links as Bia. (though she's twice as confusing)

[Fairportfan]

I've put up several cork boards with lots of colored pins, colored yarn, and colored post-it notes in the confusion corner. Whoever's relationship diagram is the most artistic will have it lacquered and framed to be presented to Paul as a thank you gift.

No, no, no! The relationship diagram must fit on a single cork board! And why does this one orange string wrap around the table lamp twice as it jumps from board one to three?

Can we use more than four dimensions?

I was thinking the same thing.

"Is this the kind of assignments..." should be 'Is this the kind of assignment...' because 'this' is singular.
Alternatively the plural: 'Are these the kind of assignments...'

This has been an uninteresting grammar break, please return to the regular intelligent discussion.

[meisdadoo]

Kath can assimilate me any day.

If Kath adopts Atsali like we hope, this will make one heck of a family. Good luck sorting out that family tree in later generations.

I imagine it would look more like a mangrove swamp.

Mangrove swamp? no more like a banyan tree.

Or, she could perhaps have been less polite:

"Is this the kind of s*** we're going to wading through now?"

I don't wonder that they're concerned. Dangerous Directors, exploding helicopters, mummy-golems throwing murderous sucker-punches, ravening ago-old vengeful succubi, unexpected reunions with children you didn't know you had...

... and it sounds as if they, and Ms. Katherine One-Of-Six, may all be required to trade in their tasteful business dress for highly-revealing spray-on-latex fanservice Borg bodysuits.

I suppose that latter qualifies as "making the bust of a bawd situation" but it's stlll a lot for these two poor bruised-and-shocked vampires to have to put up with.

(drops the collective from one of those exploded helicopters into the Pun Jar)

I second this post. lol

Of course, Nudge was the one who really dropped the bomb there.

Because of a twisted sense of humor.

six of one, half a dozen of the other ...

Wrong show.

[zachariah]

Now the Hollywood happy ending.
Lilly is Kathy's second cousin 5000 times removed, or her mother who now had a serious drinking problem, basicily what is she drinking?
Sali will get adopted by Kathy. Then Sali will call Lilly Grandma in another attack on the assistance of tact. Then a big squeeeel for Kathy.
Brandi apologizes for being a meany.
Bud Buys McBride a new bra with a larger hidden pocket.

Roll Credits....

I'd say Shelly got carpet-bombed in stereo that day, learning the truth about both sides of her family tree.

But, yeah, Atsali continues to demonstrate that when they introduced the subjects of "tact" and "grace" in school, she was out sick that day and never got around to doing the make-up work. Having the accumulated knowledge of a dead civilization firehosed into her frontal cortex can't have made things any easier for her.

Bubbly and cute as hell she is... but I fear she's going to be a menace to polite society for a long time. She'll keep things interesting!

... I have no idea what that is.

[Dave]

Interesting. "I know Brandi. She wasn't always crazy evil. She was odd, but not evil. Not like that."

So, Suzi knew Brandi previously? i wonder how/when they met before. I suppose this explains how Suzi could tell Bud "the Director's insane"... she was comparing the Brandi she knew, with the Oduya she was observing.

We've seen that Lily didn't know Senior Director Oduya before this incident, except by scary reputation.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tripping_the_Rift - an animated SF spoof/parody series.

"Six of One" was a major character in this... a take-off on Voyager's "Seven of Nine", Six is a busty cybernetic construct who was designed to be a sexbot. She might as well have worn a uniform stenciled with the phrase "OK, guys, here's your fanservice". In fact it wouldn't surprise me at all if she actually did, in at least one episode... Tripping the Rift wasn't about being subtle about anything

[Wapsi]

Hey, now, Paul, no dissing Jeri Ryan. She's gorgeous and has become even more so in her 40s.

And she tweets a lot as @JeriLRyan, so you can go to Twitter and apologize to her personally.

Atsali sees Jeri Ryan as stunning, sexy, hot and smoldering, whereas she sees Kath as being better described as pretty, by comparison.

*imagines Phil Swift and a can of Flecth Theal and shudders*

Not a pretty image dude... not pretty at all. I'll never look at thothe Flecth Theal commerthials the thame way again. Even Jeri Ryan can't make Flecth Theal thecthy...

Better yet, Monica takes her out and introduces her to the Lingerie ninjas...

Ah, okay; thanks.

Like the commercials used to ask... "What is Sexy?"

The answers vary from person to person. Some men think sexy is nudity and sex. Some can find sexy in a pair of long overalls. I imagine that Atsali might be looking at Kath as more of a mother figure, possibly without even realizing it. Mothers are pretty... other women are sexy.

Poor P and McB. Now they know what it's like to work at Warehouse 13: "Congratulations! You almost got killed by an Artifact. You're officially an Agent!"

Tweety-Bird actually helped with her comment, I really don't think anyone will be in a more receptive demeanor after all the shouting is over.
