Nothing major, but Sgt. Hatred was absent. Think it means anything?

I doubt it. But it was noticable, wasn't it? Testament to how integral he's gotten, isn't it?

I thought it was interesting how, right after the episode where they put him in a bag he just disappears. I don't think there's been an episode this season without him in it. Suspicious?

Overall though, the episode made me smile. Well done.

Maybe he's drying out in rehab with Dr. Drew.

It's possible...

Ah, questions, questions, so many questions! What are we to do?

I wonder if they would just remove Hatred so quietly like that, I guess than it would be fitting with his entrance. After all, he did kind of just fall into the role out of nowhere, and he never was that good at it either. But I'm getting ahead of myself. I suppose we'll just have to wait for next week.

Ha! The Hatred-haters miss him as soon as he's gone. He IS "Great!"

Not saying you guys are the Hatred-haters...but they're here. I sense them.

ya, I highly doubt the guy is gone. The OSI requires a bodyguard for the Venture family. If Hatred is gone then they have to have someone else in there, and if thats the case then they didnt make a big deal out of it. But people are absent from episodes all the time. Hell, even rusty was barely in this one.

Does the OSI really require a bodyguard for the Ventures? The OSI wasn't even returning Hatred's calls any more. With the ORB a dud and Jonas' inventions 20 years out of date, what's left to guard?

Bodyguard is still needed to guard Rusty. As long as he has an arch-enemy, an OSI guard is required.

Try telling that to Dr. Dugong. Only you can't. Because he's dead. BEcause even though he had a Guild assigned arch enemy, he had no OSI bodyguard (or a really lousy one). The Order of the Triad's gotten no OSI assistance with their GCI arch either. And despite Dr. Quym being in the Guild's facebook, her bodyguard didn't seem to treat Brock as a coworker.

The OSI's official stance seems to be that they're not fighting the Guild. Cardholder & Doe were pretty cagey about why they showed up to help JJ with the Monarch.

Rusty's a special case. His dad was Jonas Venture Sr.

I kind of agree. I was thinking, back in the Revenge Society, that Operation Rusty's Blanket is no longer actually needed. It was implied that the Venture bodyguards (throughout history) are really just there as a fail-safe against the ORB ever being used. Now that the ORB is out of the picture (unless someone rebuilds it, I guess) the bodyguard seems extranious.
Of course, this is all just speculation.

Operation Rusty's Blanket was an OSI operation.
The ORB was destroyed by and only in the presence of the Guild of Calamitous Intent.
One could speculate that OSI has no idea it's gone.
I could see Rusty not telling them. Then he doesn't have to deal with Hank and Dean so much.
Also, was Rusty ever even aware of Op Rusty's Blank? I don't think so. So he wouldn't tell OSI. OSI would have to find out for itself. From it's inside man the bodyguard, and I don't think Brock or Sgt. Hatred would tell them because Brock hates OSI and Hatred doesn't have anywhere else to go.

Huh. I barely thought about the fact that he was missing...

EXCEPT for a shot in the mall when Dean was about to approach the blonde-haired girl, I thought I saw him stalking behind some trees. I guess it wasn't him.

Anyway, I hope him getting darted last episode wasn't actually his final appearance or something, that would blow.

I doubt it was, but it felt very much like a 'rock bottom' moment

It probably was a guy that looked exactly like him but not him. They often reuse characters when they do public shots. It's cheaper and easier. So it may have been him, but not really him.

It's a toss up. It might mean something - it might not. On one hand, Hatred didn't really have much to do with this plot since it was centered around Dean and Triana and has been going on since the beginning of the show whereas he's relatively new. (But it would have been funny to see him giving Dean relationship advice.) Even Doc had a very little role to play, seeing as he was "resting his eyes" for most of the episode. Overall, it wasn't an episode about the adults (excluding the Triad).

However, Hank and Dean were talking about their news sedentary life. The last time we saw Hatred his duties as bodyguard were being fulfilled by him taking Hank and Dean to the movies. Maybe him being gone this episode is showing that he's becoming obsolete with the Ventures' transition into normalcy. But maybe Brock things wills start to flare up again next week when Brock comes back and we'll get a showdown between them or something.
