I guess if Malia dies I will cope (I fully expected she would after she and Chin got married--that's the only reason I think the producers let them get married in the first place), but KONO! (Normally I wouldn't worry about a central cast member, but there have always been these rumors about Grace Park wanting to live closer to her family). I agree with you about Kono being more able to save herself, though. And she is a surfer, so I expect she has good lung capacity.

Was the Scandal finale worth watching? I thought about watching it live last night, but I still haven't decided if I want to watch last week's episode first or not, so I was saving it. (Also I had to watch both Revenge and Once Upon a Time online, since I've been chock-a-block with mandatory evening social events this week).

I'd kind of like to go see Dark Shadows Sunday if that works for you, since that leaves tomorrow for errand-running on the bus. There are shows at 11:15, 12:40, 1:55, 3:20, 4:40 and 6:05. Maybe we should go earlier to avoid the eclipse? (Is it safe to be outside during the eclipse if you don't look at the sun? The accidental blindness thing freaks me out, honestly).
