I feel sorry for Bubbles. I get the feeling she's caught between a rock and a hard place at this point. I hope this doesn't mean the end of the Faye/Bubbles friendship, both have gained much from their association.
I just hope that CW opens her big fat mouth in such a way that causes Bubbles to walk away with Faye.
OttawaJohn:
I always find it interesting how people interpret or re-interpret things. It's why I love being a people watcher :)
My thoughts? CW was over the line but when you're dealing with illegal activity, that's sorta expected.
Faye is no better, and possibly worse, for actually being a 'good person' who resorts to violence like that. Implied or even over threats does not justify an unprovoked, and frankly cowardly, surprise attack on someone. Sorry, just my thing.
And yes, Faye did not demand Bubbles come with her. But basically her attitude is, as I see it, assuming Bubbles will throw away her current life just because Faye had a fit and stormed off. That's selfish and short sighted.
Leaving aside any hold CW may have on Bubbles, basically telling her to destroy her current situation for the joy of couch surfing at Martin's isn't really what most would call a plan.
She reminds me of lots of people I knew, especially when I was younger (which in her defence she still is), who would make a scene, throw a fit, storm off and then act angry or hurt that you didn't join them in their crusade against whatever, even though they drafted you into it and never asked your thoughts.
Bubbles doesn't like May from what I've seen. And May is a pain who endangered the facility and all the other 'bots. Maybe she agrees with the threat against her even, we don't know. And neither does Faye.
Anyway, just my two cents.

I felt CW's threat was pretty standard for what you encounter when dealing with illegal activity, from watching other shows. Faye's reaction was over the top. CW went too far, but Faye obliterated the line.
It sucks to be Bubbles now, as she has to choose between her friend and her job, and now, her friend has no job.

Ahh, I see. From watching other shows. Yes. *nods* :police:

Ok, while it's true that Faye jumps to violence too fast and too often, and it was unwise, I still object to this. This isn't her punching someone for something minor, Corpse Witch directly threatened to have her friend tortured.

Still a bad idea to punch out your boss, especially before you even have another job lined up. An even worse idea to punch out the boss of an illegal racket, it's like punching out the mobster or gang member you worked for under the table; being fired may not be the worst consequence Faye has to face for that. And CW is definitely the vindictive type, she won't let this go easily.
My prediction: I don't see Bubbles going with Faye. At all. Despite the friendship, Bubbles has more reasons to be loyal to CW than to Faye. Furthermore, I can see Faye taking this as a betrayal and telling Bubbles to go screw herself before storming out the door. Thus would end their friendship, followed most likely by Faye crawling back into the nearest bottle over the "breakup".
