DCBD C60-68: a SECOND dream?! Jalbert thinking Danny knew & worked with the killer is crazy. I kind of don’t have words for this ending. That was a sad way to finish it off, even if the storyline was pointing to it almost the whole time.

DCBD C38-59: Danny is very trusting taking the drugs to Ella when she thinks him guilty for murder. Jalbert is unraveling. I love Stevie & DJ. Ella is brave confronting Jalbert alone, that was scary. Love Jesse too, what a nice kid. Danny gets shot. I’m not sure if I believe this whole ‘the real murdered came forward & confessed’ thing, very unrealistic & sloppy ending if so.

DCBD C13-37: his neighbour recommending a realestate lawyer💀. Jalbert has major tunnel vision & seems mentally unstable bc why are you hounding Danny & saying random numbers? Holy shit he planted drugs in his car, thank god he found them before Jalbert’s organised plan to set him up. Honestly love that Danny’s standing up for himself finally, Jalbert is crazy.

Danny Coughlin’s Bad Dream C1-7: Danny has a bad dream but realises that the place where the vivid dream happened is a real place & now he’s all weirded out over it. Ends up driving out to check the place out & everything is exactly as it was in the dream but almost as if the dream is progressing in present time. He’s doing an awful lot of things to avoid being connected to the dead body.

Willie the Weirdo- I did not like this story, feeling a bit traumatised. The imagery of Grampa digging food out of his teeth & rubbing his upper lip had my stomach all twisted up. Let alone Willie & his obsession with wanting to watch Grampa die. Very much confused over the ending, it seems like Grampa’s soul somehow switched into Willie’s body? I feel very uneasy now.

The Fifth Step- uhh okay.. what just happened? I spent the first half of this story feeling empathetic towards the alcoholism described but that took a massively crazy turn. So is the guy using murder as a step in for drinking? Like replacing alcohol with killing? Insane either way.

Two Talented Bastids- what a whirlwind of emotions, took a second to get into but wow. Not sure why I was so devastated over Pop’s death but I was sobbing. So basically Pop&Butch felt they didn’t deserve to be famous bc an alien gave them their talents after they saved another alien while on a hunting trip. They hid the secret to their deathbeds but Pop left behind the story for his only son. Incredible.
