I love a head canon based on little to no evidence on screen (see my theory based on why Diego speaks Spanish like a native based on one word said by an extra).

This interpretation of the elevator scene in season two on tv tropes is an especially amazing case of this.

It wasn't that David Casteñada couldn't stop laughing and so just hangs his head to try hide it, no Diego was using his breath holding abilities.

TUA S3 Thoughts

I understand now why some of the reviews complained that the Sparrows were a little flat. 

Hard to be a complex character when you’re DEAD. 

Unless you’re Klaus.

That said, Marcus, Alphonso, Jayme, and Christopher got the worst treatment of the Sparrows. We didn’t get enough of them. My favorite Sparrow was Fei. 

Fei was born with eyes and the birds pecked them out. The scarring was severe enough to cover the empty sockets and remaining muscle. 

The Sparrows weren’t identified by ranking: they were identified by name. Which is so interesting. Reggie had the brellies numbered as soon as he bought them (evidence on Klaus’s receipt). So what happened? Also, it seems like the Sparrows actually decided who got what number. At the very least, their leader was negotiable and not assigned in infancy. 

Loved Luther this season. And Five getting drunk and calling him a “monkey space virgin”? Mmwah. 

Everyone’s saying fuck now, cool. 

Can’t believe Lila jumped out of the tub and just fought with Five. Like, girl, you are WET, you are SLIPPERY, put some shoes on, at LEAST. 

Sissy and Harlan’s experiences made me feel things. 

As soon as Harlan told Viktor he could “feel” the presence of Viktor and others “like Viktor”, I knew he killed the mothers through this connection. However, I did NOT recognize that as the direct cause of the Kugelblitz until Allison more or less said it. 

Speaking of Allison, I actually liked her character development. She was due for a breakdown. And seeing her use her powers in desperation, in anger, was really interesting. 

Allison in the comics does not need to say, “I heard a rumor” for her powers to alter reality. 

Klaus in the comics isn’t explicitly immortal, but he’s shot in the head at one point, sees God, and is told to go back to Earth. He also goes to a place between life and death he calls “The Void” and really likes it there. 

So when Luther’s like, you gotta go back, and Klaus is all like, but this is MY place! I like it here! LOL. 

Mothers of Anarchy was a Satanic biker gang that comics Klaus worked for in exchange for drugs. 

The White Buffalo was also in the comics. Except it was a hint some dead guy gave Klaus to find money buried in the desert. And it was a toothpaste ad. 

Oh and no Dave. Klaus seems satisfied that he prevented Dave’s death in Vietnam and moves on. 

Luther’s concern that Viktor wasn’t feeling loved after his transition was so cute. 

Would have liked to see more interaction between Allison and Diego re: race and Viktor and Klaus re: gender. Idk, Allison was pretty direct, but Diego was a lot more vague. And Viktor and Klaus never talked about Viktor’s transition. Or being the only obviously “out” members of the family, if that makes sense. 

Kind of surprised to hear Diego speaking Spanish this season. The character had some Spanish lines in the first season, apparently, but David Casteñada thought it didn’t make sense, so it was omitted. 

Also Stan was such a mouthy little dumbass I actually believed he was Diego’s son.

The Kugelblitz eating all of the earth except for this little island of land around the hotel was kinda wild. 

The reveal that Hargreeves either killed or allowed a child Klaus to die and timed the reanimation was news to me. In the comics, Reggie had experimented on him, but that was more like a “I’m gonna strap you down in this Frankenstein looking shit and see if I can amplify your reach” kind of deal. 

Still pissed they didn’t give him telekinesis. And that his powers weren’t more important to the plot. 

Actually apprehensive about next season, if there is a next season. I love the characters, I love that the show isn’t a typical superhero show, but part of the draw is that the characters have these insane, unbelievable supernatural powers that make living ordinary lives nearly impossible. They make decisions no one else has to make, they accidentally hurt the people around them, or they’re terrified of their abilities. And if that’s taken away for too long, I might lose interest in wherever the story is going.

Diego being absolutely useless.  God I love him.  

ON A SEPARATE NOTE: Can we all please notice in the second pic, there are grades behind Diego? They’re numbered 1-7.  The only two we can see any real detail on though are Luther’s and Diego’s.  Luther got an A.  Diego got a D.  Reggie then posted the grades on a wall, and left them there.  For YEARS.  He just really wanted his kids to hate each other, didn’t he?

The TUA brainrot has reached new levels. I noticed in S1E2 when Diego is speaking to several people as he crosses the gym that one guy responds to him in Spanish. All he says is one word, 'Sí', a word most people, regardless of whether they speak Spanish or not, know the meaning of, and yet I've spun it into a whole headcanon explaining why Diego speaks Spanish like a native speaker.

Because I've seen people point out that Reggie teaching the Umbrellas the languages related to their cultural backgrounds doesn't explain Diego speaking Spanish with a Mexican accent and using regional slang when he speaks. However, if there are Spanish speakers who work in or frequent the gym maybe Diego started speaking Spanish with them, picked up slang and other markers of 'home Spanish', and developed more of an accent through speaking with them over time. In fact, I love to think they intentionally tried to help Diego with his Spanish and sounding more like a native speaker because he was embarassed that he sounded like someone who spoke it as a second language despite being of Latin American descent.

And you might be thinking, 'Okay the guy speaks to him in Spanish, but Diego speaks to him in English', but stuff like that isn't at all uncommon in bilingual friendships. I'm a native English speaker, and I lived in Lanzarote for 6 months in 2012 on university placement. While I was never completely fluent in Spanish, I got pretty close in that time. I had friends and roommates who were native Spanish speakers and were also fluent in English. We mixed and changed and combined languages all the time. When I first moved there I was so determined to improve my Spanish I would more or less only speak Spanish, even when people spoke English to me which meant I regularly had conversations with friends where we were speaking separate languages. I was so used to switching languages when I moved back to Ireland more than once i said something in Spanish before remembering no one around me spoke it. So Diego speaking English in that moment doesn't mean they don't also speak Spanish together. It just means they probably speak a mix of English and Spanish.

(Yes I know the real reason Diego speaks Spanish like a native Mexican speaker is because he is played David Casteñada who is Mexican, and the scene where he argues with Ben was improvised, but I will never not overanalyse and create headcanons for this show, especially if they explain plotholes)
