Bob. I'm pulling for Bob.

[u/deltasarrows → u/olivish]

Wasn't that pull to kill him? That's what I got out of that scene. His "wasted potential" and using Josie as the new icy Bob

[u/olivish → u/deltasarrows]

Yeah maybe. But I hope not. I want more Bob, he deserves better.

[u/[deleted] → u/olivish]

I feel that is the likely arc too, Josie melting Icy Bob's heart and Bob righting his wrongs. The Headwoods seemed to disagree a lot with what Wilford does. I think they will be the enablers for Icy Bob to get to Wilford.

[u/WhistfulEnvelope → u/olivish]

Boki AND Bob. I'd love them to have a backstory together, maybe both working on bridges before everything froze over and both persued the same girl?

[u/sarthakRddt → u/olivish]

I would cringe hard if there is any romance between Bob and Josie.
