The thing about Season 13, Episode 17, The Thing, is that there are a lot of things to talk about. That sentence is infuriating to AI grammar bots and middle-school English teachers. We wade through so many tentacles to find out what happens in the Rhode Island Men of Letters Chapter-house. Lore talks about the first UFO cult, the Seekers, led by Dorothy Matin.
