Pure-Dee Poison - Episode 31

[amyk]

I started this one yesterday and finished it today. I only give this one a 5. It has a lot of good stuff, but the whole episode does not gel together for me as do the ones that I rank really high. For one thing, I don't really like Murdock's fruit bat obsession. I think it just sort of pops up in the middle of the episode and I think they may have done better sticking to his obsession about dentists implanting objects in his mouth. I do really like the client, and I like Stephanie a lot. And seeing her and BA is pretty cute, especially how cute BA is at the end with her. How did the reverend (client) know where to find the team? Word of mouth among veterans' groups? And we didn't get to see any of the team's road trip to Georgia. Since Tawnia was with them, I can see how she really felt so included, to get to go across country with those guys.

The fruit bat thing is forgettable. If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered it at all.
I do like the client and Stephanie, too. I like when the client puts a good effort into fighting the bad guys on their own. I don't like them just being the victim.
I think Tawnia is very helpful in this one. And I think she's never more attractive than she is in the jeans, pretending to be Hannibal's girlfriend when they enter the speakeasy.
She did a great job blowing up that truck though. I was impressed. Do you think they had to do much coaching ahead of time to prepare her for that?

[Baracus]

Yeah, Tawnia looked hot in those jeans.

[amyk]

Yes, in this episode Tawnia really did a good job, although apparently she was supposed to blow up the other truck, too. She even mentioned (in what seemed a voice-over dubbed in some time) that she was not able to blow up the other truck, didn't she? I love it when they use the old cigarette/cigar to start an explosion with some flammable liquid trick.

[Baracus]

Wonder how it feels to balance a gun on your head under a hat. She's just full of all sorts of talents, isn't she?

[amyk]

Do you think the gun was loaded? I would be afraid to have a loaded gun on my head under a hat, so glad they didn't ask me to help them in that way.....

[sidney]

If it fell, it could have so gone off! Right? I don't really know anything about guns.

[amyk]

I don't know either.

[sidney]

Do you think BA ever saw Stephanie again?

[amyk]

No, I doubt that he saw her again, or Kimara (or whatever her name was). I think Stephanie likely settled down with some other man.

[sockii]

That was a lot of responsibility they gave to Tawnia. I am surprised. Shouldn't Face or Murdock or BA have been in charge of blowing up the trucks?

[amyk]

Yeah, I don't know if I ever thought about it like that before, i.e. that they were trusting her with a pretty big job there.

[sidney]

Where were Face and Murdock and BA at that moment? I can't remember.

[amyk]

I think they were all inside the bar, facing the goons.

[sidney]

One of them should have been responsible for it. Maybe if one of them were, it would have been completed properly.
