Here We Go Again (And Again)

Cage and Fish are still talking. Were they there all night? Fish didn't know about Cage's feelings. Neither did Cage! This is --how you say? -- sad. When Cage heard Ally say she loved him, that's when Cage knew. And why won't he just make a move? "Ally is riddled with emotional deficits! One thing she can't fathom is being loved by a worthy other." WE KNOW. Cage says that by pursuing Ally, he'll render himself non-desirable. He can either seem "deficient in her lake-like eyes" by "declaring his fancy," or just remain loved by afar. See, this shit -- and the visual tics of this show, and the music, and most of the stuntcasting -- is what I hate most about this show. The truly sick relationship stuff, and then all the other stuff is what I hate. Fish is all, "Do what you have to do, then," which is exactly what I would say when I mean, "Shut up and get out of my office, you sad twat." Fish gives more advice about Cage making himself "accessible" by dropping "hints," even though the odds of Ally liking Cage are, "hello." Yeah. How scary is it that I'm indentifying with Fish? I'll be a recapper casualty before the second episode if this keeps up.

Court. Ally and JennyAlly can say "oh please" at the same time, and finish each other's sentences. Is it okay if I skip over the legalese? Oh, okay. The old firm thinks that they are conflicted in pursuing the telemarketing case, since one of the plantiffs was an old client, and zzzz. Ally gets mad when the lawyer she's hot for misremembers her name. JennyAlly calls him a "dink." The judge is like, JennyAlly is still on the case, see you in court tomorrow. The gavel goes "blam."

Why is every shot of Boston a freaking aerial shot? I'd be pissed, if I lived there. You know, come on down to the street once in a while, DEK? What are you, scared? Anyway. They're in the bar now. Four bespectacled dorks are singing. JennyAlly and Glenn are dancing, Ally, John, and Richard are drinking. Me? Drinking. Ally says they should keep JennyAlly because she's a "fighter." But what about the Glenn stuff? Cage is all, "Friends can be lovers, and lovers friends. Maybe one day that'll be in the cards for you, Ally." Fish chokes on his whiskey twice. Me too.
