Seeker 2x08 ‘Light’ Cracky Recap

Jan 17, 2010 23:09

You know, I really feel for the poor blighters out there who are not experiencing the chepic wonder that is Seeker being blindingly brilliant fun ALL OF THE TIME. True confessions: I had a little orgasm while capping Cara and Kahlan's epic fight sequence.



PS. I'm going for a comments-under-the-cap layout this time. Think it makes it easier to read. So don't you sticklers freak a bean on me, okay? Cool. :)

PPS. Will break your dial up more than usual.






For Sale: The Every House. Delightfully situated on a grassy knoll, this quaint wooden structure is perfect for every occasion. Including The Home of Zedd's Brother, The Home of Cara's Sister, The Home of Dennee 3.0's New Life etc etc.




DENNA: Boom baby, yeah! Now who's the best door-banger-opener, eh Cara!?
(Is there a love heart on her belt?)




In the black outfit already? But-but-backstory! What about the part where Richard tore all her clothes off so she needed a new dress?




Hallo random ladder on left. Stairway to heaven? Could be if R/K would sneak up to the loft ;)
Random red flower on the floor. Y?



DENNA: So long, suckas!



Shoutout to Mike Sussman!
And LOL AT CARA'S ANGRY-FACE.




KAHLAN: Are you alright?
RICHARD: SORRY I'M JUST COMPLETELY DISTRACTED BY YOUR BAMF NEW OUTFIT OMG IT'S SO AWESOME IT BURNS.

…Though seriously, there's an explanation for the outfit, right?




Car horse chase! vrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmm!



HAHAA HEY NOBODY TOLD ME THIS WAS A FANTASY-WESTERN.




It's the old dress-up-a-dead-sister-of-the-light-in-your-leathers-which-are-so-starched-you-can-sit-her-half-dead-body-upright-on-a-horse switcharoo.




OMGOMGOMG KAHLAN. You know how they talk about tall dark and handsome? This must be the female equivalent. SO GAY RIGHT NOW.



And now for The Prestige! Ta daa!




RICHARD: ‘Her body will lie in the Chamber of Secrets forever’…




LOL Denna's like:
*poke* That's for helping Richard and *poke* that's for being able to eat like a horse without getting fat, and *poke* that's on behalf of the fans for cockblocking Richard and Kahlan all the time, and *poke* that's for trying to be blonder than me.




A flower! Maybe Kahlan would like a flower? … *spots Kahlan flashing some thigh in her new outfit again and faints*




Wait-my bad-he's just putting it on to get some attention.




Kahlan, hold me!



Cara sexily interrogates the newcomers:
CARA: You guys look like a trio of pastel pansies. Ha. Whattup?




RICHARD: Kahlan! Protect me from the pastel nuns!




How do you like that for symbolism? A fork in the road, and a parting of the ways. You already know which way everyone's going-it's already foreshadowed by where everyone's standing in the frame.



KAHLAN: If you love me, you'll do this.
RICHARD: *checks out Kahlan's cleavage* *swallows* Okay, I'll do it, but only because I love your body you.



Richard supports Cara/Kahlan spending some alone time together:
RICHARD: You guys should be together, you have my blessing.




Cara's crushed that Richard would send her from his side.
CARA: Well… FINE. And anyway, your hair is stupid.




KAHLAN: *snorfle*
RICHARD: I'll miss you too.
CARA: *out of frame* SHUT UP!




And then Kahlan's all ‘Here, have this handkerchief kickass dagger to remember me by.’






*FLAIL*



Ahem, writers? STILL WANT TO KNOW WHY KAHLAN IS IN BADASS BLACK. HELLOOOO??




RICHARD: Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?
VERA: Richard-
RICHARD: No offence, but you aren't really as hot as the last two ladies I got to travel with, so could you speed things up?
VERNA: Those ‘last two ladies’ don't know the first thing about how to handle a wizard. Stick with us, we'll see you're looked after.
I like Sister Verna, she's sassy .




RICHARD: Is she always this fun to be around?
SISTER CATHERINE: Lulz.




Thank you relative Dizney time! What should have taken months on foot can be a 3 minute conversation away ♥




DENNA: Wakey wakey! :DDD



CARA = BAMF NOW, TALK LATER.



NINJA!KAHAN, KILL BILL style!




GREATEST FIGHT EVAR




HAIR DUET!




AND THEN CARA KNEES A SOLDIER IN THE GROIN!




SWEET MOTHER CONFESSOR, NOT THE LEGGGGGGGGGGS!!!




KAHLAN'S HAIR IS READY TO CUT A BITCH-




SHE'S THE BADASS WITH THE MOSTASS. Or is that ‘sweet as’? :DDD
For context watch this interview from 3:50, so funny! (Thanks fidesangelus for reminding me of the source.)




And then they do that fully sick Matrix schtick where they hold their pose as their enemies crumble at their feet.




CARA: *gasping for breath* That was hot.
KAHLAN: *also breathless* So hot. We need to make out now.



That doesn't look like an Irish tan, Bridget. (Goosebumps!)
Good thing she shaved for today's fight!sex :P

NOTE: Cara needs to offer to tend to Kahlan's leg. There could be a whole montage with Cara taking off her gloves, and pulling up the edge of Kahlan's dress, and sponging the wound like that one time with the arrow injury… mmm.




Kahlan and Cara don't have time to make out, so Kahlan decides to confess the nearest soldier to release the tension.




Ninja star! Sick moves, Sister! (Harhar)




Didn't Zedd already teach Richard how to ‘see that which cannot be seen’? I mean, I'm pretty certain everyone remembers the 12-Pack Using The Force training scene. That boy is ab-ulous. (So baaaad)




DENNA: Dragging bodies through the forest is so beneath me, ew!
And then she smiles… *squeals and runs from the room*




Du' Chaillu (!!!) and some creepifyingly significant guard wearing a Quirrell turban O_O




LEGGGGGGGGS! My god, those boots are positively sinful. Wardrobe dept, we applaud you!




Kahlan's all ‘Bring it on!’ so we get to Cara's favourite pastime: hurting Kahlan. This relationship is soooo S&M.




CARA: I'm impressed. Even the strongest Mord'Sith would have fainted.



Kahlan?
LOLLING FOREVER ♥ ♥ ♥



And you realise that this is the first time Cara has genuinely smiled (excluding when she's beating the snot out of someone) since we met her?? CARA/KAHLAN 4EVA!




Blah blah plot. Richard's starting forest fires all willynilly.




CARA: He fought well. And on the bright side, it's not like he'll be able to cockblock you any more, right?




She talks about torture while SMILING. You are one scary woman, Denna.
Zedd turning down food is almost as scary.




Tricksie little wizardses!




Meanwhile, Cara's taking such a shining to Kahlan that she's started dispensing hygiene advice to her. Kahlan's beginning to wish she'd shut up.
CARA: I find with leather-and you'll notice this with your new boots-it get's sticky when you sweat, so I use skin shavings from the hands of men I've trained.
KAHLAN: O____O

And where did Cara find her bow? …Maybe it's collapsable and hides in her bodice :D




KAHLAN: That cloud… it's not moving with the others.
CARA: …Why are we discussing the weather?
Lulzlulzlulz the banter between these two is the greatest thing since Kahlan's hair began swooshing. Totes reminds me of that one time hjea was telling me about Canadian weather and hollywoodgrrl was all “OMG guys what is this elevator talk!?” TOO FUNNYYYY.




GASP! It's Kahlan and Dennee's sandhill from the very first Seeker ep! Lookout guys, that looks like an erosion site!




You know something exciting is about to happen to someone when they're standing on a green screen.
THE GROUND: *slurp*




Oh gross. WHAT IS THIS, DR WHO??




RICHARD: Ew, this guy needs a manicure, stat.
VERNA: …Can you manicure it's head too?




You all said it. And now it is immortalised in Cracky Recap gif form.







CARA: Just like hunting a wild horse.
On the bright side, I can't wait to see the look on Richard's face when Denna comes back from the dead a second time, lulz.




WARNING: You will NOT emerge from this cocoon as pretty as as butterfly.







Kahlan's daggers are basically the hero of this episode.




ZEDD: We're one Seeker short, we need to hire a temp. You down with that?
KAHLAN: Sure, call the agency.
CARA: Can we get a decent one this time? Gosh.




The true lol-worthiness of this closing emo split-fade-screen was best described by hollywoodgrrl as ‘that YouTube vidding mask’ look. Hahahahaa!

Yeah I'm calling it. BEST EPISODE THIS SEASON. HANDS DOWN.
