Carnivale...& a note on FMA

I have five short things to say about the season finale:
1. Fuck.
2. Jonesy!
3. I maintain hope that Jonesy is still alive. After all, last season finale I thought both he and Sophie were dead, and they turned out not to be. And the end of the episode was really vague as to Jonesy's fate.
4. If Sophie is a healer now (which she appears to be), and the power does alternate roles every generation (which it has so far), then Sophie, being the daughter of the antichrist and having christ-like powers, should be the next christ role. She should be Ben's successessor, and therefor good. So what the fuck is up with the black evil eyes and JONESY DAMMIT HOW YOU COULD YOU DO THAT TO HIM?!?!
5. Very slick how the good/evil conflict is now going to shift from family conflict to romantic conflict. Poor Ben... I can see it now.
Ben: "Sophie! You're alive! I'm so glad you're okay! Let's make moon eyes at each other for hours in our puppy love state!"
Sophie: **black eyes** "I HAVE COME FOR YOUR SOUL BEN HAWKINS!"
Ben: "You don't love me anymore?!"
Sophie:"I VANT TO SZUCK YOUR BLTHOOD!"

Just a side note to say that I really liked the dub of episode 20, now that I finally saw it. The voice actors for Alphonse and Barry and No. 48 were all wonderful in this ep. No. 48 also sounded kinda like Darth Vader meets Mufasa of The Lion King, which ended up being more cool than cheesy. Maybe they secretly hired James Earl Jones? Nah, probably not.
