So I'm watching the Tribe, and there's this one scene that's really bothering me.* It's that scene where Trudy goes into labour and Amber asks the kids to get some clean rags and they come back with Zandra's patchwork blanket and say it's all they can find, and I'm like, really? Because, aren't they in a homewares shop, with all the beds and sofas and stuff?

And I really doubt that when the Locos and the Demon Dogs were marauding across the city, Zoot was all like, "And loot me some 2K thread count Egyptian cotton sheets!" and then some poor Loco came back with Percale and Zoot threw a hissy fit and had them thrown off a roof or something and then Trudy was all, "Okay, I've just realised you're totally fucking mental!" and left and that was the real story of how Percale sheets made Martin evil and Bray made up the whole thing about their dead parents being the trigger because he thought the truth made Martin sound kind of gay.

*Actually, a lot about it is really bothering me, not least of all my overwhelming shame at watching the Tribe in the first place, but never mind

the tribe
