The Leftovers (S2E04) -- "Orange Sticker" -- 10/25/15



In the midst of an earthquake, Nora awakens to find Kevin missing and her hopes of safety in their new town dashed. The Murphys are left reeling after Evie's disappearance. Kevin returns home, but without his memory of the night before or his cell phone, which would link him to the missing girls. Meanwhile, an old enemy makes her return in an unexpected way.

Written by Damon Lindelof & Tom Spezialy; directed by Tom Shankland.

Episode 4 of 10


Sorry forgot to post this yesterday. Not that anyone here even watched this yet due to football and that other show on AMC.

I was surprised at the reveal that Kevin tried to commit suicide. And also, I don't think anyone would mind being handcuffed to Carrie Coon.

Lindelof showing how hip he is with the Rick Roll joke.

The scene with Nora waking up during the quake was excellent, probably Carrie Coon's Emmy submission.

How was that a surprise? We saw him two episodes ago wake up from his sleepwalk in a drained pond with a brick tied to his ankle. He did it to himself obviously and the purpose is suicide.

This show will almost certainly disappoint in the end, but I fucking love it in the meantime.

We didn't know he did it himself back then.

I didn't think that was obvious at all. The exact opposite actually. I supposed that someone tried to kill him or something.

Oh, wow... I didn't see any other explanation except that he did it to himself.

I mean he's always sleepwalking and doing things that he wouldn't normally do when he's awake. He's in this small town where barely anyone knows him - it's the middle of the night... I didn't see any reason for anyone wanting to kill him - especially that way (and the odds were low of it happening then). It seemed like a very odd scenario which is usually explained by his sleepwalking.

I thought the reveal was really for the character, not the audience.
