Wynonna Earp 2x08 Thoughts

+ I'm glad Bobo is back because I enjoy him and I am really excited to see where he and his relationship with the Earp sisters goes now. He has a softer connection to both women now and I wonder if the show could be heading towards a redemption arc with him.
+ Wynonna/Bobo have always only been antagonistic but now Wynonna has gotten to see him as Robert, to learn that he was a good man (with flaws and who made the wrong choice but a good man) and just as much a victim of the Earp curse as her family has been. They were with each other at the end, she was his angel (though he doesn't appear to realise it and I can't wait till that comes out!) and he saved her life (which also brought him back to life, love it). How is he going to feel about all this when he learns the truth? Plus the last time they saw each other she mercy killed him which has to be something he'll be thankful for. Although she did also kill the woman he was in love with so maybe it evens out? Regardless I am so into the potential of their relationship going forward.
+ One odd thing was that Bobo tells Wynonna that he's seen her all his life which... ??? Did we not see her doing further timeline travelling? Is she going to do more in the future?
+ That scene in the church between them was great. My favourite part was Wynonna giving him Waverly's name. Always protecting her sister, I love it so much.
+ I was really leaning towards Bobo being Waverly's bio-father and the biggest point against it for me was his death. He's back but now I'm wavering on the theory because the show just gave him a very solid reason for his interest in and protection of Waverly. So who knows. I do love this twist in the story. Also I loved him saving her from the lake.
+ That last scene of Wynonna and Dolls cuddling on her bed was... odd. It felt like a jump in intimacy between them that I wasn't expecting. When did we get to the point of him kissing her shoulder and holding her in his arms and both of them acting like this is a thing they do all the time? It's like we missed an episode or two of their relationship. It was nice to see but I wish it had been built up better.
+ I love that Dolls knew exactly how long Wynonna hadn't been breathing for.
+ I can't believe that Nicole opened Waverly's DNA test, hide it and lied to Waverly about it! And I mean can't believe because this in no way fits anything we've seen of Nicole thus far and I have a hard time buying it.
+ Wow, Willa really hated Waverly! She literally tried to murder her on that lake. Yikes. It makes Willa/Bobo even more interesting in retrospect.
+ So if Bobo is back then I assume all the other Revenant's Wynonna killed are as well... and Willa as well?
