Endless EXU 2/???
Billy Harris as Colin Hughes in Ted Lasso season 2
- part 2
“The years will pass on and on. All of them will, in their time, come to their own ends. The passing of ages. You will stand watch over a world, knowing the answers, but as clear as my sight is, I do not yet know if answers help the conditions of the world. It may be possible to see forever, and still not have an answer.”
All time favourite Brennan moments. Spinning a legendary rant off the top of his head thats better than most jokes in most comedies? This dude should be as famous as Adam Sandler
this is going to sound absolutely weird, but I want to see c!wilbur have a breakdown. like, over the course of his character, I don’t think we’ve once see him be honest, or let down whatever walls he puts up around himself entirely.
he says he never cared about l’manburg (personally at least) but we know that he cried himself to sleep during his presidency and drive himself into depression believing he was a bad leader. he yelled and cried and sang for that country, but it wasn’t personal? you stared wistfully at your old home for 10 seconds but it wasn’t personal? you’re not afraid of death but you refuse to go in tommy’s basement? you think you support dream but you refuse to acknowledge what he actually did to tommy in exile?
this feels an awful lot like him saying he didn’t care about niki, and then offering his life up for her five minutes later, is all I’m saying.
but anyway, I want to see him have a breakdown. a full on ‘oh god oh fuck I’ve been caught and there’s nothing I can do’ breakdown. a classic ‘I just failed a test I thought I did well on and now I’m crying in my bedroom’ moment, if you will. I want to see how he is behind closed doors.
because wilbur has so many personas he hides behind, so many lies he tells to stop himself from getting hurt. he never really reveals much beyond what we can see in a few moments, or in actions he doesn’t think about before doing. he has never once truly confided in someone, not like characters like tommy have, and I’m so curious to see what an unmasked wilbur would be like. I want to know what he’s like, and I think the most direct way is just gonna be through a straight moment of panic or fear, or realizing he can’t lie to someone.
so yeah. c!wilbur have a breakdown and finally show us what the fuck is goin on in that head of yours. please.
