The fourth episode of HBO’s Watchmen — “If You Don’t Like My Story, Write Your Own” — is coming round the bend. When last we saw our intrepid masked policemen, they were attempting to solve the murder of Chief Judd Crawford (Don Johnson), with FBI Agent Laurie Blake (Jean Smart) newly around and throwing a wrench into their efforts.
So far, we’re loving this series and are officially hooked. “If You Don’t Like My Story” was directed by Andrij Parekh, and written by Christal Henry and creator/showrunner Damon Lindelof.
We have a bunch of new pics to look at, courtesy of HBO. First up, we have Hong Chau as trillionaire Lady Trieu. She’s the owner of Trieu Industries, the company responsible for the phone booths Laurie used to call Doctor Manhattan last week.

Who’s the dark-clad figure Lady Trieu is talking to above? Five bucks says it’s Sister Night (Regina King).

Yup.
Below, Agent Blake talks to Sister Night. These two were already mixing it up last week, and I can’t wait to see more of their dynamic.

When she’s not in her superhero hood and mask, Sister Night is just plain ol’ Angela Abar, mild mannered non-vigilante superhero.

Finally, we have Jeremy Irons as the eccentric Adrian Veidt, aka Ozymandias. The show isn’t telling us just what he’s doing at his remote country estate, but we have an idea.

Oh god, please don’t send Ms. Crookshanks where you sent Mr. Phillips last episode.

Why is Adrian Veidt flexing for the camera?
Interestingly, Lady Trieu purchased Adrian Veidt’s company before he mysterious disappeared. Will she help us connect some dots and figure out what’s going on with him? Hopefully we’ll find out more when “If You Don’t Like My Story, Write Your Own” airs this Sunday at 9:00 p.m. EST on HBO.
