A couple of questions

1. How did Natalie and Malik know that he was going to die immediately from the gunshot wound? Couldn't he have survived, meaning that she would have killed him?
2. Why didn't Malik break out in hives and convulse? Because the bullet killed him first?
(Fairly sure the reason behind #1 and #2 is if either of those things would have happened, Natalie and Malik wouldn't have been able to hold hands and recite their nice little poem. But still.)
3. Who's got the baby? Red jokes about Tom being able to find a sitter. Hate it in TV shows when the baby is used for a plot device and then forgotten about.
4. Why didn't Tom seriously hurt or kill anyone? Is this a new, gentler Tom? Was it so he could feel ok about going back to work because no one got hurt?
5. Where to go for BL message boards? Someone said Readit. I don't post often but I like to read these.

1) ...What a stupid question.

2) It takes minutes for the disease to strike. The bullet killed him first.

3) Probably mercenary bodyguards

4) Tom is a good guy and doesn't kill unless he has to

5) Dunno

Wow. It makes me feel bad to be told my question is stupid. I guess people like you are the reason why these message boards are going away.

Your questions weren't stupid, but thinking that the boards are going away as the result of trolling and rude behavior sort of is. It has to do with monetizing the consumer information obtained by data mining the users posts in order to create focused ads, ie South Park s19 and not South Park s 20. They are simply requiring users to migrate to a more nefarious platform.
