Kill the Messenger

[hafital]

I totally forgot that Art punched Raylan, and when I saw them face each other I was like, uh, it looks like Art is going to punch Raylan. And then he DID. Well. If Art punches you, chances are you deserved it.

You know, I really really hate it when dogs are used as an extension of male aggression.

Tim -- Are we really not going to talk about it? Did you slip in Art's shower?

So many innuendo jokes. But honestly, Tim's face during that whole scene makes this episode worth it. Especially his expression once everyone gets up and leaves the meeting. I love him.

I also love Rachel. But we knew that. I love that Rachel tried. I love their friendship. <3 times infinity.
