DON'T THINK ABOUT IT. Judy, Linda and Teresa are forced to suspend their disbelief for episodes 7-10 of “Vagabond” (배가본드), an SBS action thriller starring Lee SeungGi and Bae Suzy.

Teresa is still struggling to accept the wackiness of this drama, whereas Judy and Linda have embraced it wholeheartedly. Judy is annoyed that the drama has pulled a switcheroo with Haeri (Bae Suzy); instead of an "Alias"-like competent spy, we have a novice agent who gets ignored by her team. Linda alleges that Suzy fans want to see her in the same approachable girl-next-door roles forever. Let her grow as an actor, for heaven's sake!

We have so many questions this episode: 1) Why is Haeri so obsessed with high-fives? 2) Why are the President and Prime Minister comparing pee streams? Is this a common thing men do? 3) Why does Subway have a pizza sub? What's it like? Someone eat it and tell us!

Glossary of nicknames we've given to some characters: Chief Sadsack - Chief Gang (Lee GiYoung), the bespectacled ally/mentor for Haeri. Sadface (aka Rockface) - Chief Gi (Shin SungRok), the rules-obsessed NIS officer who is maybe the second lead of this drama Scarface - Jerome (Yoo TaeOh), the assassin who blows up the plane.
