Dying Is the Best Thing That Happened to Laura Moon

“Love always has you at a disadvantage.” “Death has me at a disadvantage.” And I was smitten! I gotta admit, guys, the first 45 minutes of this episode, I thought, “Oh god—Is Laura friggin’ Moon a main character now? With an entire episode being devoted to her, she probably has...
