Hee! Okay, re: the mood theme, some of them are a bit odd because River's not in much (TRAGIC), but this one as I understand it isn't so much about the shot as River telling Amy it won't hurt, Amy yelping, and River going, "There, you see, I LIED." I think she's being "creative" in her method of getting Amy to take the shot quickly?
ALSO THOUGH THE VID! Yayyyyy! I'm really glad that the vid manages to convey more of what we were trying to explain to you which is just ridiculously difficult if you haven't seen it, yes. I mean, honestly, I'm still not really sure how the show manages it but it does and I'm thrilled that this vid manages to help add a visceral level of understanding to the thing.
Also, as I've said, it's got too many standalones, but the show really is worth checking out for some of the characters and ideas. I'm horribly biased, (of course!), but I also really feel that my reading of Walter and the show's treatment of him is intentional and canonical which is another fairly surprising fact. I don't feel that I'm having to work to maintain this reading?
Also yes, the eyeballs freak me the fuck out too, to be honest, but um...if you watch the show, don't do it while eating. The gross bits are usually pretty short but also pretty...eyebally. :/
