Alice/Dana - ah yes it separated out aspects of Rufus' character. So, not just understanding more about a character by the way they react to other characters, but having the same foil in two different roles. I see there is a film "Kindred", but since it's described as "Plagued by mysterious hallucinations, a pregnant woman suspects that the family of her deceased boyfriend has intentions for her unborn child." probably not very true to the book. |

They have now - we're all book groups down there v. Future researchers will wonder why McGoohan suddenly said "Veet for men".

It's because I'm a huge fan of depilation, obvs and if anything, I felt Kindred really didn't have enough

They seem completely normal, their tagging power is hidden. It could be any one of us....
