I hope your holidays are filled with love, laughter, and family.
And in the spirit of Christmas geekery, may the frost be with you.
Season 3, Episode 13
Pete steps into his own version of "It's A Wonderful Life" when he accidentally touches that author's upholstery brush.
Myka: Let me be perfectly clear. I know places where people would never find your body.
Pete: Deal. I'll even dig the hole.
Pete: I will never make fun of you again.
Myka: How come I don't believe that?
Claudia: Not now, grumps. I'm being awesome.
Claudia: Whoa, whoa. Wait. This place is heated by a giant furnace powered by the earth's core?
Artie: You should see the air conditioner.
Season 3, Episode 12
Pete and Myka must find Sykes and rescue H.G. Wells to be able to save the warehouse. Claudia struggles with the loss of Jinks and begins searching for a way to bring him back. Anthony Michael Hall, Kate Mulgrew, Erick Avari and Sasha Roiz guest star.
Jane: You two know you haven't actually finished a sentence yet, right?
Pete: I believe the phrase is "ah-ha!"
Caturanga: When the rules do not agree with one, it is sometimes necessary to change them.
Pete: Takes a licking and keeps trying to kill us.
Myka: You did say we'd go out together.
Pete: I always figured we would.
Artie: Not me. I was planning on outliving both of you lunatics.

Last night’s episode was a two hour rollercoaster and a beautifully acted one at that. Eddie McClintock is so adorable and boyish as Pete Lattimer. He does everything from playful to serious to heartbroken very well. The scene where he discovered Jinks broke my heart. I don’t think I’ve every cried from this series before last night. (I also think I’m going to have to rewatch this on demand before doing any in depth comments.)
Since that first episode where Jamie Murray appeared as H.G. Wells, I have enjoyed the relationship between H.G. and Myka. I don’t know if they became lovers though it appeared that way to me. At the very least, I think they were soulmates. It’s going to be an entirely different show without her. She damn well better be getting her own spinoff with Warehouse 13 (and Gareth David-Lloyd).
Season 3, Episode 11
Pete and Myka go on a search for Sykes's goal when Claudia decrypts part of the Regent's file and they find something they hadn't bargained for. Anthony Michael Hall and Shasha Roiz guest star.
Artie: Busted!
Claudia: Did you just Mrs. Frederick me?

Okay, it's been several months since the episode aired so I can say this now. If you haven't seen it yet and don't want a spoiler, close your eyes and scroll down a little to get to the pictures. I don't feel like looking up the code to make a spoiler section.
First off, I love Jaime Murray as H.G. Wells. She is a skilled actress and the character is so well developed.
Second, the ending was shocking. I never expected Jinks to be killed. Claudia's (Allison Scagliotti) scream was heartrending when she saw him. I also think this is going to be a move towards a darker Claudia as she tries to find a way to bring him back. As evidenced from her search for Joshua (season 1 episode "Claudia"), she doesn't deal well with people she loves dying.
Season 3, Episode 10
Zombies are on the loose, but these dead aren't quite so dead. Claudia gets pulled in from her days off to search for info in the warehouse and might have accidentally cursed herself.
Claudia: She raised her eyebrow at this and walked on.
Comments:
I have always enjoyed Claudia's tendency to narrate her day. I might have to take that up myself.
Though my soul may set in darkness
it will rise in perfect light.
I have loved the stars too fondly
to be fearful of the night.

Season 3, Episode 9
Pete is still mad at his mother for not telling him she is a regent for the warehouse, but comes to terms with it when he steps back in her memories with her to help find the man who is killing regents. Claudia and Myka try to help a girl when those who anger her die in a flash of light. Kate Mulgrew, Sasha Roiz, Alessandra Torresani, and Anthony Michael Hall guest star.
Artie: Silence! This is not snag, bag and nag.
Pete's Dad: Guys like me make a choice, Pete, to be the ones who keep the world safe even if that means it takes us away from the ones we love, but it's because of that love that we do it.
Season 4, Episode 14
It's the guy's turn as their quiet night of poker goes awry with the return of Hurley (The 12 Step Job), a clash of drug dealers and a not-so-nun.
Hardison: Hey, it's a valid strategy.
Eliot: It's not a strategy, man. It's just annoying when you bet every hand.
Bonanno: You married, Shelly?
Shelly: To the constitution of the United States of America.
Hurley: You just cold-cocked a nun in church. Talk about making amends.
Irish Thug: Father?
Nate: Yes?
Irish Thug: Why is there a nun's habit here without the nun inside?
Nate: Rapture.
Comments:
I'd been seeing this listed at "The Guy's Night Out Job," but when it downloaded to my iTunes it showed as "They Boy's Night Out Job" and the TNT site lists it the same.
Shelly (and I'm not sure if I'm spelling it right) is fantastic. I hope we get to see more of him. It was also great to see more of Eliot. Normally he is shown kicking ass, bickering with Hardison (which I do so love), seducing a woman, or the rare highly emotional scene. I liked that he was shown more playful and joking with a buddy.
