zelempaO-kay! Something to cross off my list of things to do!
I put some solid work in tonight and finally, finally finished watching Demon Under Glass. I have been at it since, like, October. I just couldn't watch for longer than about five minutes at a time.
What I'm trying to tell you, I guess, is that that's why the recap is so incredibly detailed.
DEMON UNDER GLASS "In a featureless black box room, the three doctors watch through a one-way mirror into the super-secure-totally-look-we-boringly-showed-all-these-security-measures room where the SWAT guys are installing Marcus's casket. Subcommander Tal tells [Blair] that inside is a 'creature of pure [mumble]' (malevolence? evil? metal?) Blair guesses 'Lawn gnome?' Dirty look: 'Vampire.' Blair's incredulous. Tal: 'Do you know any human being that can be repeatedly shot, clubbed, shoved into a box, and still have the strength to resist?' Well, Blair does, yeah."
NB: I do not want you to watch this movie. I can't stress that enough. I don't even really recommend that you read the recap, but must needs when the devil drives. Godspeed.

Marcus is the B5 character but the fact that he wasn't named Marcus on the TS episode he was in didn't stop me there, either. Look, GM changed his hair, and he got a new name. JC didn't, so Marcus he will remain.
