1.17.08: The Cavalry


Spinelli overheard the monk and Jerry/Moreau's henchmen discussing Lulu and was able to discover where her room was. He pretended to be bringing Lulu some food and was able to gain entrance to her room.


Once inside, Spinelli pulled back the covers of the bed to reveal the old tried-and-true "pillows under the sheets look like a sleeping person" routine. Real original, Lulu! lol... Spinelli then noticed the hole in the bricks where Lulu made her escape.


The henchman started to get curious so he came into the room. Spinelli attempted to break a board over his head, but failed miserably at knocking him out. Instead, he reached for a flashlight and succeeded at incapacitating his enemy. He took the flashlight and made for the hole in the wall, but made sure to grab some provisions for his journey...gotta love him!

So, once again, our boy is the comic relief. Lulu made her way through the hidden passage way and eventually came across Johnny, but both ended up hurt. That was the "real drama" for the day and Spin was just there to make us laugh. *Sigh* Don't get me wrong, I love Bradford's grasp of the hilarity of Spin, even in this tense situation, but I wish we could see a little more drama in Spinelli. Obviously he's a very deep individual with a story worth telling, I just wish they'd give it a go instead of reverting back to laughs.

Can't it be said that if Lulu kept still Spinelli would have already saved her? That he didn't do anything wrong and did everything right in his search for her.

I would also say that while he is fun, he did manage to get in there, get provisions, figure out where Lulu is and knock out the fake monk.

Spin won't get any credit, but Johnny and Logan would still be poking fingers in each others eyes if it wasn't for Spin's brain.

IMO, our Spinny is very much like old skool Luke use to be before he went whiney on us. --Funny but also very resourceful.

Gosh I had to comment he looks dreamy in that robe.

lol, Penny! Having the hots for a MONK are you? ;)

It's true, if Johnny and Logan hadn't recruited Spinelli, he would have figured this all out on his own and Logan and Johnny would still be on the pier, beating each other with their guns... Go Spinelli!
