Well no, I'm sure you aren't. I was happy for him, he was going to Hope. Strange, in the end, he did have Hope.

2020-10-15 17:00:25 +0000 UTC"do they 💕hurt💕" oh no i love her
Paola Ivanna
2020-10-15 02:53:32 +0000 UTCExcellently written and performed as always. The sound editing in this episode was incredible - listening made me cringe. Very well done and utterly horrific. Kudos to all!

giantenemykat
2020-10-09 19:18:58 +0000 UTCJust the idea of pills that crawl themselves down your throat is brilliantly horrifying! So well done!
Kyle Kane
2020-10-09 01:28:27 +0000 UTCThat blade noise as she walked... amazing.
ELooking
2020-10-08 23:10:22 +0000 UTCYes! Happy for her! I wondered what happened to Jan Nowak- I seem to remember they were doing pretty well in their studies too...
gojo fujoshi
2020-10-08 16:58:37 +0000 UTCMartin's little "It got worse, it got worse. ohhhhh" made me smile. Am I the only foolish person who felt a little bad for Breekon at the end? He deserved it but honestly, he was a drone for the Horrors and he lost half of him. I get it.
Heather MacKenzie
2020-10-08 14:50:59 +0000 UTCOooh! This one scared me more than usual!! S5 has been sooo good y’all. 💕Thank you!
Ellie Fogleman
2020-10-08 14:47:53 +0000 UTCNow I know what happened to those creepy kids with the Anatomy class. Jane Doe did grow up to become a doctor after all.
Kat
2020-10-08 14:06:48 +0000 UTCSo I looked up the voice actor Mabel Syrup, and they're a cabaret/burlesque actor who legit dresses as a clown...

2020-10-08 11:12:35 +0000 UTC!!!! Fan interaction!!!!

2020-10-08 10:33:42 +0000 UTCThis was such a good episode !!!!! Really gave me the creeps!! Those sound effects were freaking scary. Brilliant writing ! Excellent episode !!

2020-10-08 05:31:21 +0000 UTCGod I’m so in love with bitchy taunting Martin
dontbothertotalktome
2020-10-08 05:13:22 +0000 UTCobsessed with this episode
Jonah Lubnevsky
2020-10-08 03:39:06 +0000 UTCHOLY SHIT, IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I ENJOYED A TMA EPISODE THIS MUCH, both the statement and the story... Literally kept rewinding every couple of minutes. Definitely one of my favorites in the series.
Jonah Lubnevsky
2020-10-08 03:38:41 +0000 UTCJon rlly said "is this guy bothering you, queen?".... i cant believe jon is a Chad
Abigail Espinoza
2020-10-07 23:53:01 +0000 UTCThis was an interesting one. Certainly a mixed-entity episode. I get spiral, flesh, and stranger vibes. The first part of the statement reminded me a lot of the White Plastic Kitchen in the book Challenger Deep. I really liked Martin's conversation with Breekon. How dare I be made to feel bad for Breekon. How dare.
Anna S
2020-10-07 21:02:37 +0000 UTCA bit Desolation-y too I thought.
Carolyn Thraves
2020-10-07 20:35:25 +0000 UTCJust listened again and I didn’t even realize how... slicey the Doctor was. I wonder what she looked like... or if she was an avatar or a monster
James White
2020-10-07 20:29:48 +0000 UTCThis /may/ be one of my favourite episodes. Definitely top 5. Loving Dr.Doe! The Stranger speech patterns always get me in just the right way 😁
Malik Ibheis
2020-10-07 19:40:38 +0000 UTCNah he just kinda banished him I think
Sarah Millman
2020-10-07 19:05:32 +0000 UTCWait, didn't Jon already obliterate Breekon in mag 128? That said, not surprised to see him again given how breekon & hope's story paralells daisy & basira's. makes me think basira might die on her qay to london though :(
Turbo Emily
2020-10-07 18:50:55 +0000 UTCNow that the fears have been let loose, they seem to be combining. I mean, this is obviously the Stranger, but it's also the flesh. With a bit of the Eye for good measure, perhaps.
James Rule
2020-10-07 18:33:26 +0000 UTCOh my god that was DISGUSTING and I kept SHOUTING SO MUCH!!! FRIGGEN AWESOME UGHHH it was So Unsettlingly Sensory I am uncomfortable thank you and the ENDING so comforting somehow?? I don’t know why I was afraid he wouldn’t do it? I’m glad he could take the pain away from /something/ at least? Ok what an ep hell yeah
thecrowsoundtrack
2020-10-07 18:28:28 +0000 UTCBased on so many of the Avatar's reactions to this new world, the advice "Careful what you wish for" seems sound.
LainyJP
2020-10-07 18:17:37 +0000 UTCSo MAG never really freaks me out. Maybe 3 occasions up to the point. Mostly always flesh. And this was fricken rough for me. Good job, Jonny.
Sadie Moon
2020-10-07 18:17:13 +0000 UTCthis episode was terrifying! thank you. very interesting that jon said this place was starting to get to him!! perhaps there's hope for our boy's humanity after all
gojo fujoshi
2020-10-07 18:09:20 +0000 UTChey i'm at 17:30 and i say this in the best way possible: what the fuck? what the fuck. are you guys okay??? the tube? the tube? what the hell.
gojo fujoshi
2020-10-07 17:58:19 +0000 UTCi am about to listen to this and i am Afraid
james
2020-10-07 17:38:25 +0000 UTCMe, listening to S5 episodes with increasing anxiety: Is this foreshadowing? Is THIS foreshadowing? Is this fors
Bruna G
2020-10-07 17:11:30 +0000 UTCi like how martin just consistently wants to fight/threatens avatars/monsters in s5
Jennyclart
2020-10-07 17:02:35 +0000 UTC|spoiler| Breekon: gets sent to hell, looks up the sign reads: Abandon all hope, ye who enter here Breekon: "Aw, piss off"
Rachel Franklin
2020-10-07 16:57:15 +0000 UTCThe SECOND Breekon appeared I knew absolutely nothing good would happen<3
The Leo!
2020-10-07 16:27:26 +0000 UTC"TMA doesn't really scare me," I said. And then Jonny decides to write an episode about being awake during surgery filled with uncomfortable sounds of squishing and blades. Great! Thanks!
Maddie
2020-10-07 16:15:05 +0000 UTCI never thought I’d feel bad for Breekon. I mean, I don’t, but I almost did.
James White
2020-10-07 16:13:48 +0000 UTCCreepy ep!! Im glad im immune/largely unaffected by most horror because this one is a doozy! We seem to back on season 5 usual episode track so thats fun, and jon said theyre close to london!! I do hope at one point they meet up with melanie and georgie! That'll be fun!! Thanks for the good ep as always <3
Owleics
2020-10-07 15:44:27 +0000 UTCGod I can't get enough of jons ceaseless Watcher routine, hot Jon rights And the statements! The surgery stuff really turned my stomach, five stars
Lavanya Annette
2020-10-07 15:35:06 +0000 UTCMabel Syrup was Imogene Harris wasn't it?
YamiKakyuu
2020-10-07 15:34:05 +0000 UTCit's a cold and it's a broken ceaseless watcher smiting! (fantastic episode, thank you for the horrifying time)
Maddie B
2020-10-07 15:33:25 +0000 UTCWow! What an episode! The whole ending sequence was absolutely incredible. The characterization and character interactions are so incredibly complex and well done. Cannot believe this actually made me feel a bit bad for Breekon. (Not to mention making me mourn the loss of another opportunity to get lighter lore...) I wonder if Martin's cheeriness is significant. For all that this world makes part of Jon feel "good", you can hear the anguish in his voice. Maybe while Jon has been fighting to retain his humanity, Martin has been losing his without noticing. Also Jon Ceaseless Watchering Breekon was such a powerful and well done moment. Incredible episode. Good job guys!
ThirdFromTheLeft
2020-10-07 15:31:44 +0000 UTCGod Damn Guys! Another excellently horrible episode, you've consistently raised the bar! I panic-knitted all the way through this one!
MuddyHippy
2020-10-07 15:30:50 +0000 UTCMartin just LOVES when does that and can't admit it. Thirsty lad
Jax
2020-10-07 15:30:01 +0000 UTCwas wondering where he went. no idea what entity this domains supposed to belong to though. stranger is an option due to breekon being there as well as the faceless non human doctors but im not sure abt it. also its interesting for jon to have an actively averse reaction to something he sees for once, as hes been mostly calm and collected regarding the horrors around him, calmly remakring on the terrible things around and in front of them with detatchment (as well as calling the mortal garden beautiful) never the active, if mildly, disgusted reaction we got this episode
