The only thing that I disliked about the episode was Jake's involvement with Ravenwood before the bombs.

A bald man named Savalas visited me last night in a dream.  I think it was a Telly vision.

Another good episode tonight. The town sends out 4 to a place where there iis some kind of trading post. Included in the group are the former mayor, Jake, the mechanically inclined girl, and the teen who took over the store. In the market area are signs that you'll be strung up if you steal with someone hanging with a bag over his head near by. They went to this post to get parts for a windmill to help generate power for the town and the boy tries to be be heroic and put the part in the backpack only to get caught and the 4 with a little help get out of the compound. The trading post is rather seedy and involved in all kinds of trade. This makes the series a little better as they get away from the soap opera stuff and into more of the social degeneration of a post nuclear world. We also learn that the world is sending supplies not just China and that there are now 6 presidents instead of 1 and each area is scabbling for survival and power. Hawkins friend also shows up.

The March 7 & 14 episode tell us a lot about Hawkins. The barrel in his basement is definitely a nuke. Where was he supposed to deliver it? Where is his family going to go? Every episode just begs more questions.

The town now has an Abrams tank and ex-Mayor Greene looks to be back in charge since his successor sorta ran dry of ideas and totally flubbed by not catching on to the fake Marines.


My wife and I figured that Hawkins daughter or wife was going to off his old partner.



And you thought Trek isn't cool.

I've missed all but the first two episodes of the second season. Has anyone been watching this show and can you give us a quick recap?
