Abed redoubles his attention on the screen, trying to figure out what it is that's causing the tears- it's Shepherd Book, dying on Haven, every hint of his real identity being cut off too soon. It's a brilliant scene, highlighting all the questions surrounding Book's secret past while proving, without doubt, that those questions would never be answered. It's as frustrating as the series itself, thirteen perfect episodes and a movie, and a hundred story lines that never got to be. Awesome first kiss for Troy and Abed, from Abed's POV, with some lovely Firefly references.

Mary Poppins
Eternity in a Kiss by

Bert's spent countless untold years with Mary, traveling with her from place to place, from family to family. Sometimes he arrives in the place before her, and waits. Sometimes he catches up to her, after she's been there for a while. He's immortal, of course, thanks to her, but he's not immortal like her. There are places Mary Poppins can live and thrive that Bert can't, and during the years when she's living with families under water, or deep in the heart of a flaming volcano, Bert can only wait for the winds to change, the tides to turn, the volcano to sleep, and hope the next child lives in a place where he can join them.
He's not magic like Mary Poppins, but over the years, Bert's developed his own magic, making paintings and drawings that can come to life, and can be used as portals to other worlds. Lovely and clever backstory for Bert. ♥

The questions, when Nick finally gets a chance to ask them, are met with the kind of irritation only someone both fourteen and tired and extremely disappointed could manage. "It was a recording," Cassie snaps. "She saw the conversation years and years ago, and recorded her end of it, okay? We're supposed to talk to this Shadow."
"I'm sorry," Nick says quietly.
Cassie's frown only deepens. "I know," she says. Cassie's mom has work for them to do. Cool story about how her plans might work.
