season 2 ep 9 Waiting on a Friend discussion

[aliaswestgate.livejournal.com]

Heya ladies and gents! 

2 more episodes to go. Still. 

A former client accuses Peter and Jared of misconduct, spinning into motion an internal investigation against the duo and putting their jobs in peril. 

So yes, we get to see exactly how that 'we win all our cases by misconduct' said with much joy by Peter leads to! Also, this is supposed to be the flashback episode! I so very hope it is. I've been WAITING impatiently as the rest of you for it. 

Squeeing, discussion and general silly below. I'll be with you guys tonight!

OMG We got them as CHIBI! Adorable pudgy Peter and lanky Jared. XD Little SHITS from day 1.

I'm trying to think of response that isn't just keyboard smash. And my computer is lagging like hell at typing and I don't know why. OH GOD SHORT AND TALL. AND Peter in some sort of weird grey top but Jared still in his shirt lakjsdlfja WHY? And MATCHING TATTOOS. I love them for being ridiculous and adorable. He knocked Peter over. All my love.

OMG i love Carmen in this ep. 2007 Carmen was adorable and a total minx.

Eeeee. 2007 first case. XD Peter's look? It says 'It's a good thing you're pretty.' after the 'you have to sell it' comment from Jared.

But the entrance. OMFG Peter in the mascot costume. The birth of their unique style.

Edit: Peter: 'i feel like ice cream" jared : 'you look like ice cream' XD Oh boys, never change.

Okay. He's too attractive to be allowed to kiss people.
I love their 2007 hair.
Their timeline makes no sense.
I love that Peter failed the bar a bit.

Was his name Elmo or Elmer? Is Elmer a name? I heard Elmer that time. It doesn't matter. I LOVE HIM.

Ok first off, 'Daniel Hardman' in F&B? From the New York office? Regardless of name differences they're in the same universe for me now and I want a meeting between Peter & Jared and Harvey & Mike. Though there might be a little too much gay lawyering going on.

As for the rest of the episode, I loved all the flashbacks, though I think I prefer my headcanon for Peter & Jared. But I do absolutely love that they've been going to the diner since such a young age.

Also, matching tattoos? Are they even trying to hide the love anymore? Because someone needs to tell them they're doing it wrong.

Everyone else was awesome in this ep too, especially Pindar, Carmen & Stanton. I'm glad we've got a more definitive idea of what Carmen did exactly because it's been a little hazy up until now. And Stanton just rocks everybody else out of the water.

Things I didn't like (or rather just thing); Jared and the associate. Mainly because I thought we'd gotten over the whole 'let's sleep with a case-related person' thing but also because it meant that his entire focus wasn't on Peter, and that's just not OK.

I can't believe that there's only one episode left and that we have to wait TWO weeks for it. Still, looks like it's gonna be a great season finale so I can't wait!

Did it seem odd that this had nothing to do with Hanna and Damien's plan to destroy Peter and Jared? Like, what was the point of even having that plot line?

I also thought that Jared's thing with the girl was going to be a bigger deal, but then it wasn't really? (not that I'm complaining, it's just... early press seemed to make a big deal out of it)

So Peter and Jared met randomly in 1988 while not being picked for some kid organized football game? Was Jared slumming it in the less fancy side of town? Why hadn't they met before? Where were they when they were younger? Did they ever even go to school together? I need context, people!

Peter as a chubby kid was too cute. And tall and lanky for his age Jared. Aww. And that they always sit on the same sides at the Diner. My feelings.

Ugh, their back story. Does it make sense?

They met in 1988... Pindar was 2000 (and they were in law school then)... I missed the date of their first trial (but Peter sounded so young! And angry! And worried that he was going to get disbarred! And Jared with the 'don't tase me bro!' thing... was their first case also in 07. because that's when the whole 'don't tase me bro' happened)... and Carmen was 2007. So, they were like 22/23/24 in 2000? Which means that they met at 11/12/13? My childhood headcanon is smashed to bits! *cries*

Damien at the end was too cute with his apologizing for sort of not being a terrific lawyer but also not wanting to tank them on purpose. And being asked out for ice cream and saying no, like how could you, Damien, how could you say no to Jared's face when it was being so bewildered-ly adorable at the idea that anyone wouldn't want to eat ice cream with them.

Was Hanna not even in this episode? Boo.

I have been mostly djh'afd'dafh'hfad'fsjkalfjd

Also TWO WEEKS!!???

At least I won't have to wander around looking for a 3G signal while I"m on holiday next week. That's something right? But TWO WEEKS??!! They're horrible to us.

I didn't mind the kiss, although come on TNT that hardly rated the 'S' . I was expecting naked Elmo Jared. In fact I got quite excited at he prospect of naked Jared.

I loved the flash backs and baby Jared and Peter. And that their timeline sort of kind of doesn't work and I don't care. And that Peter failed the bar twice and that Jared played polo and has a Rolex and got Peter to dress up as a kangaroo and that Damien wouldn't through them under the bus and and and

It's pretty much all LOVE.
