Well, I downloaded and watched. Nice two parter looks like. Anyway, what'd you guys think?

Question: How come the kid brother, Fletcher didn't get dead when he was sprayed with the red stone water stuff. Was that just trash talk that the older brother was saying about if someone gets it on them they're done for?

Also, I like how Ed and Al got thrown out again by the townsfolk. This time for supposedly lying about their identities. However, I would have like to have seen who through Al out the door. It must've taken like three guys to toss him like that!! I'm also hoping this Magwar guy turns out to be someone remotely cool, but from what we've seen so far he seems just like sniveling evil underling of that woman, whoever she is.

Interesting episode...

Maybe it takes abit till the toxic/stuff from the water takes effect, I mean Edward was inhaling the fumes in that room for about 10-20 seconds before it had any effect.

The kid Fletcher seems to survive/be fine from the previews at the end.

I suppose Al wouldn't weight THAT much seeing that hes just a suit of armor, since its hollow.

I'm really curious as hell who is that odd looking fella, one that kinda looks like ziggy?

you said "spoilers" in the thread title, why are you also using spoiler tags? isn't the point of making this thread to keep the FMA threads short, one per ep, AND not have to use spoiler tags, as they are annoying (But i agree, very important)

Anyway, I think there's an antidote, but that the older brother wouldn't give it to ed obviously, and will give it to his bro, or maybe even heal him with the red stone?

And yeah, the maguar guy looks really weak, just an underling of the evil lady.

Yeah, I was very tempted to not use spoiler tags but I've seen people bitch about being spoiled before in threads with the word "spoilers" in the title, so I figured I'd avoid some whining, but now that no else is using the tags here, I won't use them anymore!
:eyespin:

Yeah, in one the last frames of the episode as the end theme begins to play, we see him looking surprised, but not really passing out or anything like Ed did from just being exposed to the fumes.

The episode was funny reminds me how uncle Phil used to kick Jazz(Fresh Prince) out of his house all the time. The funniest part was when Ed and Al are tiptoeing in to the mansion twice I found it funny cause Al was so loud lol. off topic what happened to all the Love for this series??? I rarely see any threads regarding this anymore WTF????

The woman is Lust and the ziggy guy is Gluttony. I can't wait to see them attack the Elric brothers, that should be cool. On a side note we see the aftermath of what the guy with the 'X' on his head (Scar is the only name I have seen) does to Al, but they leave the town that he is in without confrontation (in the manga he destroy's Ed's arm and takes a big chuck out of Al's side) so maybe we wont see a confrontation between Lust, Gluttony, and Envy vs Ed and Al?

I am liking every episode of this series so far. Sure, this episode wasn't that great, compared to the other awesome episodes. Well, just my two cents, defending the episode of course.

Bleh, out of the 11 episodes, only 1 kinda bore me, 4.

Current one seems to explain about the "fake" stone, well thats what I see.
