Sense8 season 1, episode 9, "Death Doesn’t Let You Say Goodbye":
- Synopsis
- We definitely didn't think Rajan's father, Manendra, survived that attack.
- How did a very religious woman find herself with such an anti-religious man?
- While Kala is visiting Rajan's father, Wolfgang is sitting by Felix's beside.
- Sergei comes in and delivers a not-so-veiled threat.
- Lito, Lito, Lito. When he cries, the world cries.
- Did Lito know that gun was really a lighter?
- Hernando is very much the reason that Lito keeps everything together. He is so very lost.
- Flashback to Lito and Hernando's first date.
- Nomi and Lito don't necessarily have a lot in common, but this scene is really beautiful.
- Lito has just accepted that people visit him in his head, lol.
- Nomi tells Lito about how she became the woman she is, and there's so much he can learn from her.
- Amanita reunites with Nomi and everything seems better.
- Will continues to explain the mechanics of how the Sensates connection works, but our newbie is happy that we're still getting some inside knowledge.
- Will provides us with some Whispers backstory involving Sara Patrell. *shudders*
- All Sensates in a cluster take their first breath together. How fucking cool is that?!
- Sun's father visits and he's feeling rather guilty about letting Sun take the fall.
- We sink into talking about Peter Kavinsky for a sec because EVERYTHING is better with Peter Kavinsky!
- Riley shares the information about her dead husband and how guilty she feels about her grief and his death.
- Yrsa and Jonas have very different mentoring styles.

Listener Feedback:
- We love that someone got our Cell Block Tango reference.
- Asking anyone to choose a favorite character in Sense8 is just unfair.
- Bug, Amanita, and Dani are all great characters.
- Congratulations, Laura!
