The Almight Johnsons Season One Episode Three God Gift To Zebras

The Almight Johnsons Season One Episode Three God Gift To Zebras
This episode begins with Axl finally deciding to do some research on Norse mythology and he visits a library. There he notices that the women are taking a lot more interest in him than normal. He reports this sudden change to Anders who only wants to know if any of them are Frigg. Anders encourages him to sleep with as many women as possible, but Axl is concerned by how Carla reacted. Anders is quick to suggest that Carla spazed out because she was "drunk and stoned, or because she is a professional athlete and therefore on steroids." He then admits that he slept with her after his brothers left. Clearly Anders is a rapist.

Stacy returns to the Goddess headquarters and reports that Axl is now doing research. Ingird says, "its good that he is taking an interest in his heritage, even if its all wrong and written by people who know nothing." Michelle feels that he can "learn what pricks Gods are", but Ingrid counters with the belief that there is no reason for Goddesses and Gods to coexist. For her part, Stacy is sick of watching the girls mooning over him.

Anders goes to see Ty to complain about Axls resistance to bed hopping, but Ty says that since it was his first time that he has nothing to compare it to. Anders leaves in frustration and Ty gets a call to go to a club to fix their refrigeration. There he sees Helen and is instantly mesmerized.

In the meantime Axl has gone off to see Olaf about the sudden interest he is getting from women. Olaf tells him that this is all natural and makes an analogy to zebras. He says on some level these women recognise that there is something different about him. Ty shows up at the house to see Olaf and Val is quick to complain. Ty bursts in the room and says that he felt something he has never felt before when he met Helen. It seems that for the first time in a long time he actually felt warm. This is amazing because he has not felt warm in ages, even food turns cold in his mouth. When he asks why, Olaff says that he needs to think about it.

Axl goes back to the library to return the books and he starts to chat with the librarian named Sonya about mythology. He tells her that he is Odin and she admits to being Frigg. His mouth drops open in shock.

Axl immediately goes back to see his brothers to tell them that he has met Frigg. They tell him that involving mortals in God business is not right. Axl wants to believe but he doubts it because of how they met. Of course Anders wants to know if he felt a desire to sleep with her. The brothers head to the library to stare at her to try and determine if she is Frigg. Can I just pause to say that this is some first grade stalking behaviour.

Stacey goes back to the goddesss office and reports on Johnsons interest in Sonya. Ingrid immediately sends Michelle to check out the genealogy. It seems the brothers belief that she may be Frigg is the information that is valuable. The brothers take off to Anders office and once again he tries to push Axl into having more sex. Olaf then begins to reminisce about his two affairs with goddesses. He describes Axls grandmother as "a cold hearted bitch," but then goes on to say how wonderful the sex was. I dont know about you but I could have done without hearing a man use the word bitch to attack a woman. He doubles down by referring to marrying a goddess as taming her. "Goddess are tricky, theres always a catch when you bag a goddess." Honestly I could have done without this entire conversation. This much sexism was not necessary to tell Axl that Frigg is the goddess of marriage.

Axl is shocked and is not happy about the idea of marriage. Anders tries to calm him by telling him that marriage between gods means hooking up. When Axl doubts this, Anders points out that Axl is the God of Gods and that therefore his marriage can mean whatever he wants it to mean. Apparently because Axl is Odin he should be free to sleep around as he pleases.

Helen calls Ty back to the club with a fake refrigeration emergency this time. He quickly sees through her rouse and so she offers him an apple martini. Ty asks Helen why he finds her so irresistible before they share a sweet kiss. Read more >>
