    (Lex points to a breastplate with an “S” symbol)
    Lex: You know it belonged to Alexander the Great? They said the design symbolizes strength and courage.
    Clark: I can’t exactly see myself going into battle with that on my chest.

    @couchpotato: No, my rule is to take the number of remaining shows, subtract one, and multiply by 100, and if the total point count is above that number then we start the Winners’ Circle. That means the 80s shows need to have at least 200 total points, and right now it’s 147. So, no 80s Winners’ Circle yet. Sorry!

    Just going from memory, so this quote might be paraphrased, but from last night’s Castle…the scene was that the detectives had discovered Castle had gone off to Paris on his own to try and rescue Alexis. One detective said something like, “Who does he think he is, Liam Neeson?” And the other said, “He’s barely Ashley Judd!” lol

    from 30R 4.14:
    Liz: [on phone with Jack] When you were watching me after my oral surgery, did I put a toaster waffle into my dvd player?
    Jack: You did. You watched it for about an hour, said Nicole Kidman should get an Oscar for it, then you turned it off.
    Liz: Yikes. Thanks for babysitting me.
    Jack: I did my best but you were pretty far gone. You kept trying to order home massages off of Craigslist.
    Liz: [gasps] Good thing you were here.
    [Male stranger knocks outside door and yells, "Hey, somebody order a massage?"]
    Liz: Oh brother. [calls out to door] You’re too late – I already killed her!
    [stranger groans]
    Jack: Well played, Lemon.

    From OUAT 1.05 “That Still, Small Voice” -
    Archie: I’m gonna continue to treat Henry, and I’m gonna do it my own way.
    Regina: My relief at his safety hasn’t changed a thing, Dr. Hopper. You will do as I say, or you…
    Archie: Or what? You’ll ruin my life? You’ll do your worst? Because I will always do my best.
    Regina: Don’t test me.
    Archie: Oh, I don’t need to: because you’re gonna leave me alone and let me do my work, in peace.
    Regina: Really? Why is that?
    Archie: Because someday, Madam Mayor, you may find yourself in a custody battle. And do you know how the court determines who is a fit parent? They consult an expert. Particularly one who has treated the child. So, I suggest that you think about that, and you allow me to do my work. And let me do it the way my conscience tells me to.
