what, outside of the fact that Jonesie married someone else, did
Sophie have against
him that occurred in a part that I didn't see.
THIS IS YOUR HOUSE
when Knauf said this:
If a bloodline ends (a fairly common situation, incidentally; due to
violent, premature deaths, an Avataric dynasty rarely runs more than
three generations) a new dynasty springs from the first child who is
born into the world with the most Avataric blood in his veins. This
child could be in a completely different family, halfway around the
world. Thus, a new Avataric dynasty is created.
Someone also said that Knauf said that only a male could be a COD.
So Sofie cannot
be one. Only her child perhaps can be.
Someone also said
"What was up with Sofie killing off Jonsey at the end? And do you think she
was trying to bring Justin back to life or something, the corn in the field
just sort of started wilting, kind of like when Ben heals someone. Does
this mean Sofie is evil now as well? Will Ben have to kill them both or
something?"
I was curious about that too. Did the corn just wilt because all
that evil spilled?
Why would Sofie want to bring Justin back if she knows he raped her
mother. Did
mom have atavistic blood too?
I also enjoyed Knauf on dirt

I always smile when folks wonder at how dirty our characters are.
Just to get an idea of how much airborne particulate matter people
were dealing with during Dustbowl days:
When dinner was served, napkins were placed over the food for the few
moments between serving and setting. Otherwise, dust would spoil the
meal.
People died due to its inhalation (dust pneumonia).
A common means to "clear the air" was to wave a damp cloth inside a
room. In moments, it would be caked with dust.
Dust from the Bowl was found on the rails and decks of ships hundreds
of miles out in the Atlantic Ocean.
A bath would only create damp skin, which would attract more dust.
You could shower, but you would be filthy in literally minutes. There
just was no "getting clean."
Laborers like Ben sweat--once again, a dust magnet.
A short automobile trip would render everyone in the car filthy.
I could go on and on.
I guess audiences aren't used to seeing dirty people on TV. If
anything, we're downplaying it. And how much fun would Carnivale be
if everybody was squeaky clean?
