He’s probably God. Okay. But to look beyond the simple answer…

I’ve settled on the patron saint of cops, especially slain cops. Clear fit for the story and saints are definitely in the same genus as superheroes. According to Google and the Wikipedia, that would make him “St.” Michael — actually an archangel, the good Angel of Death (you don’t say?) and all-around pugilist vs. Satan.

Michael is balanced by the evil Angel of Death, Samael, whom I’d assume to be the clown if Evan weren’t such a very good fit. Samael was snake, seducer of Eve, and destroyer. The clown/dad destroyed, but we have good evidence that Evan was directly involved in that bomb plot as well. Maybe even talked him into it? He’s yelling for Tim to wait another minute right before he clownifies and blows up. Also, why else would he be present there with Layton to witness it?

I’m still not getting over this show. What’s weird is that I’ll usually latch onto the romantic chemistry in a good show and bugger the rest. (Getting in the British spirit here, dontcha know.) This show, I’ve got a crush on the people who made the show! I love the writing, the acting (Philip’s awesome altho Keeley gets on my nerves after repeated viewings), the music, the framing, the sets, the costumes, etc. Most of all the humor, half of which I’m sure I’m still missing, being un-British. I enjoy nearly every scene immensely. I’m not just riding on the vicarious hormonal rush, tho I’m definitely hormonal (as Chris would be happy to point out).

I really like Shazzer. I wonder how hideous I would be if I got her weird haircut. 34 years old and I still don’t know what the hell I’m supposed to do with my hair.

Here’s a still of animated Sam and Gene from LOM!

An animated still — how ironic.
