Found "The Cantos" on Wikipedia cos I have nothing better to do at 8.53am! I might be barking up the wrong tree entirely but there was an interesting bit in the page which is about...
"The Cantos by Ezra Pound is a long, incomplete poem in 120 sections, each of which is a canto. Most of it was written between 1915 and 1962, although much of the early work was abandoned and the early cantos, as finally published, date from 1922 onwards. It is a book-length work, widely considered to present formidable difficulties to the reader."
So far, so blah blah blah (forgive my literary insensitivity but it is early!)
This was what caught my eye in connection to the Sarah gets transformed discussion going on at the mo:
"Another approach to the structure of the work is based on a letter Pound wrote to his father in the 1920s, in which he stated that his plan was: Live man goes down into world of dead. 'The repeat in history.' The 'magic moment' or moment of metamorphosis, bust through from quotidian into 'divine or permanent world.' Gods, etc."
It could all be a big ol' coincidence but it did seem to fit nicely. With thanks to Wikipedia.

I believe The Desert Cantos are as series of photos of the US southwest... <sigh> That's too bad. I liked my version

I believe this is the episode we find Walsh lying dead in a field, or desert like environment.

I don't know what yet. Misrach's artnet is what intrigues me. I have a feeling is will play into what is going on with Sarah.

I bet it has something to do with the stories written by this Spanish guy: Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca

I wonder if that could be Charley's funeral? I wouldn't expect him to die so soon, but John looks mighty upset in that shot of him and Cameron. It's a little tougher to read Sarah. Also, it's nice to see Sarah in a leather jacket again, but does it always have to be those funky ones with that gigantic triangular flap hanging over? So yucky.

If it were Charlie, I would imagine that Ellison would be there also but I don't see Ellison (assuming he would be featured in the promos). So maybe not Charlie. (Fingers crossed.)

Personally, I like the return of/continuing theme of Sarah and Cameron in Hero-Sidekick coordinating garb. Hey! Someone in this thread is breaking a vow, no?

I was actually all yay - Sarah in black jeans and leather jacket and then I got fixated on that jacket style. And yeah, um, I distinctly recall k8tie saying she was done with spoilers. ;D

Out of all the things to talk about with those pictures, you guys are chatting about the JACKET?! Seriously.. what about the fact that Sarah actually does NOT have a belt on? Is that a first? Seems like it
