@doublephq.bsky.social Loved the set design in this - the kids lair in 17 (I thought they were brilliantly portrayed, and the POV flashbacks were excellent), and the classroom set with little Jimmy's desk (Adam Savage has a walkthrough of it), and I loved what Solo did with his vault.

Word of the Day, should you need it, is β€˜latibulate’, a 17th-century verb meaning to find a corner somewhere and hide in it.
