While Rick, Michonne, Daryl, Maggie, and the others were watching Negan crush their souls, Carol and Morgan were in the middle of their own considerably less horrific drama. Carol left Alexandria in a fit of guilt or something, ambushed a bunch of Saviors, took their weapons and almost got away with it until Morgan and one of the Saviors caught up with Carol. The Savior did that dumb thing that bad guys do where he was all: “Imma gonna shoot you in the arm to drag out your pain but also to give someone an opportunity to sneak up from behind and kill me before I kill you,” which is exactly what happens. Morgan kills the Savior; Morgan has a moral crisis.
Is a date that holds no meaning for Lucy. Which is unfortunate, because that’s when Luka is. After several hours of sciencing, Jiya finds him. It turns out the “negative mass energy” that’s so inconvenient to loose papers has a signature that can be tracked. She puts the Heart of Gold somewhere in the desert within a 50-mile radius of Las Vegas.
Lucy provides the why for the where. She says President Kennedy was in Las Vegas on that date for a DNC fundraiser at the Sands Hotel. Sinatra was the headliner and the room was full of politicians, celebrities, and waste management consultants. Any or all of them could be a target.
The Time Trio suit up and board the Omni. And I kind of love how analog the controls are, with the pushing of buttons and flipping of switches to initiate the launch sequence. It makes the craft feel solid and real in a way that a bank of sleek flat touch screens wouldn’t. The pod’s interior also reminds me of the Millennium Falcon’s cockpit, which I’m sure is no accident.

We begin the episode in the production trailer hidden away in the woods, where Sidney, the toothy producer, is watching as Dominic and Matt pummel each other, exactly as he planned.
Here’s your nauseating Trump moment of the day: On The Wendy Williams Show back in 2013, Donald and Ivanka Trump were asked what is their favorite thing that they have in common. Ivanka, a human being, answered, “real estate or golf.” Her father? “Well, I was going to say sex, but I can’t relate that to her.” The vomiting begins around 2:07.
Clips from the never-aired E! reality series, Trump Town Girls, have made it to the light of day. The show, which was also from three years ago, revolved around real estate brokers from Trump Real Estate International and former contestants in Trump’s beauty pageants competing against each other in the real estate business. While there’s nothing horrible in these clips, it’s hard to watch them without a jaded eye following all of the women who have stepped forward with sexual assault allegations against Trump, including women who appeared on The Apprentice and some Miss USA contestants. Just, yuck. (Also, interesting side note: the show was developed by a production company owned by Carlos Slim, whom Trump accused of conspiring against him in the election. What is going on with that?)
