Finale Episodes of 666 and Some Thoughts . . .
So ABC has been airing the remaining episodes of “666 Park Avenue” as well as “Zero Hour” on Saturdays. I’m still angry about the cancelation of “666” as it was my favorite new show of the year. These final few episodes still show how good it was, and I really hope we aren’t left with some giant unsolved mystery.
Henry has been gearing up for a run for city council, but is slowly becoming a man he never thought he would, using dirty politics and Gavin’s pull with people to get the seat. However he’s justifying it with the “once I’m in there I’ll do good things” excuse. Even Laurel, aka Sasha, didn’t know why her father was helping him. Gavin only said Henry was a good man and would do good things, or something like that. But we all know that Gavin isn’t a good man, right? What the heck is he though? Sasha referred to him as “The Dragon” in her attempt to have a priest kill him. We know The Drake also had that secret society, but we haven’t been able to connect Gavin to them . . . yet.
After Sasha got caught trying to kill her parents, she said she did it because everything they had given her had been at the cost of other people. Gavin said those people were not innocent, they had done very bad things. They then banished her into the stairway in the floor. Gavin has his own way to open it as Jane did with her locket, he used a watch he carries. They then sent Sasha down the steps and to “a new life.” Does it lead to an alternate reality? Or does she just end up with a whole new life?
Last week Jane tracked down the descendants of the man who sacrificed Libby in the past, the one who tried to kill her own grandmother too. She found out he was still alive, well over one hundred, and cursed by what they had done. They were all cursed and could never die it seems . . . . Is Gavin one of them? This guy was in pitiful shape, but after a meeting with Jane he got his youth back somehow. Perhaps Gavin has stayed young or at least healthy by his work at The Drake? Jane had done what the old guy had been waiting years for, and he (and Gavin) kept calling her “the light in the darkness” (or something like that). Hmmmmm . . .
Now young again, the man moved into the Drake and into Mavis’ old apartment. Jane eventually figured out who he was through an old photo, and Gavin presumable knew who he was all along. He was also trying to right the wrongs of the past. In his apartment he was making a replica of the dragon tiled floor in the basement, and using the blood of women he’d been killing in the mortar. He kept saying “this time it would be done right.” My guess? He means to sacrifice Jane to make up for not killing her grandma as planned.
Elsewhere the writer, his model lover, and his art gallery owning wife continued with their drama. We learned the model was actually run down years ago and left for dead by the wife, who was drugged out of her mind. Gavin found her paralyzed and gave her her legs back, at a price of course. That’s how she got pulled into this. The wife learned about her husband’s affair and in a drunk and drugged stopper went to the new guys apartment to take him up on an earlier offer. I guess she’s probably mortar by now!
