Really feel bad for the astronaut getting sequid'd again. Man can't even get a good night's sleep

And Shapesmith fucked up his apartment and probably maxed out his credit cards buying frozen pizzas

u/emlgsh Mar 21 '24

And left him to die alone on an alien planet! What a jerk!

I know death was a pretty harsh sentence and I guess Shapesmith could be considered a "refugee" but am I the only one who was sort of hoping that Cecil or someone would be a hard ass and take the line that it's not their job to interfere with Martian law? Not wanting to risk an interplanetary conflict with a clearly more advanced race?

u/meh84f Mar 24 '24

I felt the same way. Dude literally endangered not only his own entire species, but earth’s inhabitants as well. All for what? Because he was bored? Fuck that guy.

Wait until he sees his apartment after the sequids done with him....

u/Dan314159 Mar 21 '24

I don't think he will...

u/finnjakefionnacake Mar 21 '24

don't answer if this is a spoiler, but...do sequids reproduce asexually?

u/thewoodlayer Mar 21 '24

Kinda unrelated, but you’d think an astronaut would own a nice house instead of renting an apartment.

u/Structor125 Mar 21 '24

What does it say about our society when even our astronauts can't afford a house? lol

u/LightChargerGreen Mar 21 '24

I was honestly expecting them to just leave Shapesmith to the martians.

Cecil's employees fucked up by not doing their job right.

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '24

Yeah, you'd think they'd have done a rather extensive series of scans on a guy who got taken over by alien parasites.

u/LinuxMatthews Mar 21 '24

Also you'd think they'd cleaned his apartment

Like I know this isn't the biggest deal but the guy seems to have limitless resources

He couldn't hire a cleaner!

Should have done the same to Eve and Rudy as well.

u/macedonianmoper Mar 22 '24

Yeah I can't see how this is even a threat without it being a glaring plothole, Cecil is always monotering, even if they couldn't detect the sequid inside they'd know right away after he got posessed. Also how is a sequid even a threat now? It's not like there any on earth.

u/DaSmartio Mar 23 '24

Rudy and Eve also got the Sequids. They could potentially be threatened with the same thing

u/JonathanL73 Show Fan Mar 22 '24

It’s kinda ridiculous he got randomly possessed again. I was expecting him to wake up and be some kind of PTSD nightmare, but nope apparently he has the worst luck in the world.

u/Actually-Yo-Momma Mar 21 '24

I’m actually over that plot line. We haven’t had any time with evil mark and Angstrom so i was annoyed to see sequids lazily popping up again

u/NapendaViatu Mar 21 '24

maybe someway somehow these plots will tie together

u/NivMidget Mar 22 '24

Angstrom's so boned. Imagine how bad it could be with a dimensional hopping squid.
