I mean the car was missing for at least 24 hr? Will was hanging with Lady Tru so I'm sure she got a pill making machine just laying around. I'm unclear if leaving them in the car was an honest mistake or he wanted Angela to take a few .

I was going to bring up the fact that Fred Trump's sons were all born after this time period, but Fred's father was Frederick so objection retracted.
It sure seems like Watchmen turned Donald Trump’s father into one of its racist villains
The "Fred" in Watchmen’s sixth episode has a lot in common with Fred Trump.www.vox.com
Will is aligned with Lady Trieu, the maker of these pills.
Edit: Way too late.
Or Occam's razor we see Angela hooked up to Lady Trus IV at the end. Maybe they slipped in the final memory then? We saw lady Trus daughter experience memories/nightmares in her sleep a few eps back while hooked to the same device.
David Hayter shared a clip from a Watchmen test clip that was shot back in 2003.
Lol. Iain Glen played knock off batman and real batman.
I take it y'all didn't watch Succession season 2?
Ray Stevenson. Hayter said Daniel Craig was initially going to do the test until pulling out last minute.
Stevenson is waaaay to big of a dude to play Rorschach lol, but the voice was good. Glen would have been an interesting Dan.
Say what you will about Snyder'a film, but most of the casting was perfect, especially Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Jackie Earle Haley as The Comedian/Rorschach respectively.

It was good. I enjoyed it greatly, but it's nowhere near the artistry of Mr Robot or Watchmen.
I love Succession, it's hilarious and pretty fucked up at times, but the entire cast is rich white people, which kinda takes me out of it at times. I prefer sitting through Watchmen. It's been incredible so far.
My crazy prediction:
It just seems so outlandish, but we've got Lube Man and mind control so why not?
Lady Trieu sees the Tulsa Riot as the nexus point that lead to the Minutemen and dramatically altered history. The clock tower is a machine to send Tulsa back in time so they can prevent the massacre and "correct" American History.

Little pub fact: Alan Moore said David Hayter's script was as close to the original as someone could get.
I thought that's exactly where we were headed to, but it seems too obvious
Idk
That's too historically ignorant. Tulsa was just one a whole bunch of race massacres across the United States through 1919, 1920, and 1921. It was the worst, but that type of violence was endemic at the height of the KKK.
But none of those events—per the show—lead to vigilantes. I think the destruction of the Minutemen/Watchmen is her goal more than solving Racism.
The book is pretty clear on time being immutable, and I think changing that would be a bridge too far even in a post-HJ race 'retcon' show.
The pieces on the table related to the tower are Nostalgia, mind control, the free HDTVs, and whatever it was that crashed where the tower now stands. Even if the backstory stuff like Tulsa, Vietnam/the My Lai not-massacre (hometown of Trieu's 'mother'), etc, shaped the worldviews of the characters, I don't think that the massacre could be the impetus for the tower in Tulsa when the tower is built exactly on top of whatever crashed, unless she had chosen for it to crash there. But if she had done that, she probably wouldn't have had to strongarm the farmers.
"It tells time" from Trieu's daughter to Blake is still the giveaway. It has to be some sort of broadcast tower, and the question that raises is whether Trieu's intentions are malevolent/vindictive or benevolent but misguided like Ozymandias's.
Loving Watchmen, Succession was also excellent.
Mr Robot? Does it get better? I watched season 1 and thought it wasn't even in the same league as those two.
Personally I thought it's got better every season. Most people are iffy on season 2 though but I thought it was great. Season 3 is generally considered a masterpiece of television and 4 is astounding right now.
As I said, Succession is a fun show but the artistry just isn't remotely there compared to Mr Robot and Watchmen. Mr Robot especially is a masterclass in cinematography.
My guess is
the tower is gonna broadcast a signal that will function like the squid's psychic blast (as well as the Harlem theatre stuff we just saw). A big ol nostalgia bomb, granting everyone the memory of their family's history in vivid detail. How people then react after being exposed to that is maybe the larger question the show is posing to the audience. After knowing the truth do you throw out the Extra-Dimensional Security kit or go back for it.
Oh wow. Actually would have totally digged Stevenson playing Rorschach
Oh ok, it felt like it was setting up for a bit longer than that. Guess the last third is gonna be HEAVY
After re-reading the comic I got a good feel that Lady Trieu
Ep 6 was genuinely great, gotta dig in Peteypedia before episode 7 drops.
is related to one of the 3 vietnamese help to Veidt that he killed in Antartica right when the squid plan was put into motion, she probably backstabbed him too. Good for her.

I keep hearing that but why not? The Veidt/Trieu stories are converging. Trieu buying that farmland where the meteor crashed was probably where Veidt lands when he gets back to earth so that's covered. We have an ep to get Angela 100% up to speed and then we'll have all the major players on the board. That leaves us 2 eps for everyone's plans to play out or be stopped. Like the source material the ending of the show will probably be ambiguous.
