Jericho: Vox Populi

6 Weeks after the bombs…

Well, it looks like Jericho is quite willing to throw the cards up in the air and completely change everything. Gracie died!


I figured she’d be convalescing in the clinic until something happened and she got back on her feet to be redeemed from being a psycho profiteering bitch from hell, but nope. She died outright. Then we have Mitchell claiming that Jonah did it and went awol. WE have Gray leading armed men through town, being a total asshole vigilante. Finally when we do get Jonah, Gray wins the election! OMG! Fuck! Not cool man, not cool. Robert finally tried to shirk off his overlords, and make a life in Jericho… not to that warm a reception. Dale gets Gracie’s store, and is promptly threatened by Mitchell, which of course changes his mind about who killed Gracie. In a rather tense scene we have Jake telling Gray that he can’t make Jonah disappear, especially when he’s innocent. They decide to exile him from Jericho. Stanley and Mimi are bedding each other, much to Bonnies disgust.

The reason the synopsis is so scattered, and not the usual scene by scene… well the ending. The ending of this episode is the real meat and gravy of the show. Just as Emily and Jake get together, kiss, and decide to become an item a group of stragglers comes into town, looking horrible, and like they walked through hell. Amongst them is Emily’s Fiancé, Roger!

Dale Shoots Mitchell!

Bonnie drives off with the town bad element.

Roberts’s overlords tell him quite graphically that they know exactly where he is, and they will be seeing him quite soon.

OMFG! Ok, good episode. Most of the turkey chase for Jonah was ho hum, but then we get to the end of the episode and realize how much has changed. The Greens are out of power. Gracie is dead. Jonah is out of power. Mitchell is dead. Dale is in charge of the store. Bonnie is going over to the dark side. Stanley and Mimi are starting to domesticate each other. Gray is in charge. And most of all Roger is in Jericho….

Oohhhh I cannot wait for episodes to begin again. I hate how they do this to me, get things to the point where I’m on the edge of my seat and make me wait. Not good for my nerves.
