We're settling into the home stretch here ladies and gents.

I can't believe we're already more than halfway done with this season.

Will the wall come down this ep? What shenanigans are going to take place?

I seriously loved this episode way too much. In fact, I love this season way too much and if it doesn't get renewed in a couple weeks, I will personally fly us all to TNT HQ to protest.

- I don't think I ever enjoyed a pre-title sequence so much. Their commentating was hilarious, especially Jared's about how blue the pitcher's eyes were (Peter only complained because he was jealous). Then Jared laughing at Peter's bat-holding skills. And then Peter reeling Jared into the elevator and then tackling him which was the most adorable thing ever, even if we only saw half of it as the doors closed.

- Since when was Peter a baseball player? Back in 1x05 he seemed completely clueless about it but now it was a lost dream? Their history continues to befuddle.

- Jared continuing to be an awesome boyfriend by placating Peter when the heckler was insulting him.

- Their heckling was excellent. Oh, and Carmen's back! But not Pindar. AGAIN. The look she gave to Jared's reaction when Charlie called was totally "Jealous, much?"

- Jared again being an awesome and supportive boyfriend by giving Peter relationship advice. He just wants him to be happy.

- "What happens in the locker room, stays in the locker room." Really? And then we don't get a locker room scene? I mean, really?

- Peter is apparently a needy boyfriend, calling Charlie every ten minutes. But I think most of us suspected this about him already. I like that they're at least trying to make a likeable and fleshed out love interest. Jury's still out on how I feel about her and her with Peter though.

- Loved Damien finally standing up for himself because I was really starting to hate that judge guy. But now he's going to be framed for his murder :( I have faith that F&B will work their lawyer magic to get him off though. That came out wrong...

- Finally, Jared arranging for Peter to have a batting session with Randy Johnson. Did you say 'best boyfriend EVER'? Because he might just be. Seriously, nobody makes Peter smile like Jared does. Sorry, Charlie. Also, the height difference between Jared and Randy, and Jared calling himself Mini Unit? Too freakin' cute!

Yes! I managed my entire review without making any pitcher/catcher puns. I almost feel bad about that.

My texts to Vic while watching

I'm absolutely and irrevocably in love with Jared Franklin (after the opening sequence.

He's wearing a rather lovely fitted shirt (after the scene with him on the couch leaning forward and it was pulling over his back)

I'm suddenly finding Damien hot - what's happening to me?? (after he lost his temper on the golf course)

And holy fuckballs Jared looks GOOD (at the end when he's walking onto the baseball field in his WAISTCOAT)

Stuff not babbled in texts -

Jared is in fact the best boyfriend ever. and his face was off the chart perfect for the whole episode.

Peter looks really good in a red t-shirt - and the Charlie thing is boring me now. They really do need to find Peter someone he has chemistry with. Oh wait they already have.

I've decided I'm just going to hand wavey their history/timeline stuff now. It makes my brain hurt trying to work it out.

I actually really like Rachel.

WHY can we only have either Carmen or Pindar??

'Attention, young lawyers in love' \o/

'mini unit' LOVE

And DAMIEN - he's finally got some story that's not trying to become a judge. This makes me happy. Not the frame up for murder thing, well apart from it means Jared and Peter get to go all badass in court again...

Can we please bring back what the psychic said about seeing jail in Damien's future? Because I'm kinda freaking out about it. There is no way that he could have killed that guy. Damien's all bark and no bite...right? Ignoring the fact that he tried to get the boys fired, but that's not a violent act. The only violent thing I've seen him do is destroy Pindar's laptop and kill a bee. He had just made peace with old judge dude, so...

I'm just really nervous about this and have a lot of Damien feels.

But about the boys:
"I make the big head jokes around here"
my mind went places that it probably shouldn't of. ;)

BRECKIN YOU LITTLE SHIT WITH YOUR HIP THRUSTS IN THE ELEVATOR! NO! STOP BEING ADORABLE!

Peter. I don't know where to start with you this episode.
1. So Charlie dumped you via phone. BFD. Get over it.
2. Suing her to get her back? Really?
3. Falling down while at bat while Randy Johnson "The Big Unit" is pitching to you is not a thing you do. (i kinda love baseball so i kinda freaked when i saw him)
4. I'm mad at you right now.

Jared getting a hit on the first pitch. Hells yeah.

i think i'm done...for now.

I'm having serious feels about how Jared's being an awesomely supportive bf this season and trying to deal with Peter's deal while also sort of not getting anything for himself? I don't know. They're not organized feels. I just know I feel bad for Jared. I mean, there's been a bit of 'look how awesome our lives are now' going on from him. (I also think that maybe he was being passive aggressive when he suggested that Peter sue Charlie in order to have face time with her... because what was that even about? they usually don't cross the line into creepy ville like that)

(and maybe that's why he's been cuddling up to Pindar so much. and Pindar knows it's nothing serious, but he's there to help Jared out because he feels a little guilty about burning down there house)

I don't know why it feels so important to me to know Infeld Daniels King is on the 11th floor, but it is.

When Charlie called Peter, and Jared said 'Charlie' and than Carmen look at Jared and smiled knowingly...
And I loved her serious face when she said her mom's cat should have more views on it's video!

I made this and Tumblr doesn't let me post it, so here you go:
