Previously, on iZombie: Major and Ravi do “research” by taking Utopium, and Liv and Clive investigate a frat brother’s murder. Things get bro-tastic, fast.
Something tells me there’s a roommate brawl in iZombie’s future.
Grey Matters
An investigation into the death of a rich housewife leads Liv and Clive into the secret—and sordid—world of a Max Rager board member with a vendetta against executive Vaughn Du Clarke. (The board member eventually gets what’s coming to him, however, in a way that only a zombie show could provide.) Major continues his dalliance with Utopium and his questionable position with Max Rager. And Peyton returns to head up a task force to rid Seattle of the scourge that is Utopium once and for all.
Brain Melt
- Not only is Gilda faking being Liv’s roommate to spy on her, but also she’s messing around with Major? WHY ARE YOU THE WORST?
- Peyton’s back! And on a Utopium warpath. But also being sweetly apologetic for dropping everyone like she did.
The Brain
Taylor Fowler, 38, was the trophy wife of Terence Fowler, Important Guy. But she was sleeping with Vaughn—and an all-around obnoxious stereotype. Her brains came with a penchant for expensive fashion and accessories, the inability to use the word figuratively, and a very short fuse.
The Real Monster
Although Alex Towne Joe Fricano pushed Taylor over the edge of her balcony (with the truly spectacular view), the person behind the murder was actually Bethany/Harmony/Ivy/Miranda/etc. Terrence’s personal assistant and one-time mistress. Good fashion sense doesn’t always go hand-in-hand with common sense, it seems.
Winners and Chewsers
Winner: Ravi. Not only does he CRUSH his date with his new lady friend, he also makes nice with Peyton. Or, she makes nice with him. Close enough.
Loser: Terence Fowler. He loses both his wife and his mistress during the episode, and then gets eaten by Zombie!Dr. Holland in the sub-basement of Max Rager just as he’s about to make his big play for the company. He’s also a terrible human being, just in general.
Words With a Bite
“Moving on to your more immediate dining plans ...”—Ravi
“I’ve never had a lady who lunches for lunch.”—Liv
“She looks as tasty as she was tasteful.”—Ravi“I thought this was a good look for work, because I wear this dress like someone’s paying me to.”—Liv
“There’s a reason I’m not getting married.”—Vaughn
“Because you can’t marry your own reflection?”—Liv
“Burrrnnn.”—Vaughn“What am I, driving Miss Crazy?”—Clive
“I am literally going through hell here!”—Liv
“OK, you’ve literally forgotten the meaning of the word literally.”—Ravi“A long time ago … we used to be friends.”—Liv
Picking Your Brain
- How amazing was it when Liv referenced “We Used to be Friends”? I laughed out loud.
- So, Peyton’s back. How do we feel about this?
- When is someone going to go all after school special on Major? He is making some—wait for it—majorly stupid decisions.
I literally cannot wait until we can discuss together below.
