You know, I’m REALLY going to have to start thinking of more tags to add to the list at the bottom of this post, I REALLY am … !
Because, believe it or not … ?
I think I may need one or two … !
Because I think I’m getting to the point where I’m going to admit …

Another sees our hero almost completely forgetting the simple fact that it’s his best friend’s birthday.
And yet a third — phew — sees him healing the almost dead Neil: who’s been both seriously injured as a result of last week’s encounter with some seriously nasty fades.
And healed in a way that forces the soon to ascend — and very dead — Helen to admit he can do thing’s she couldn’t, while she was alive …

It doesn’t stop there, either.

Episode three ALSO has something of a sudden ending.
It sees Paul …
Hit by a truck.
I’m glued … !
Again … !
I’d like to see how this resolves itself … !
