Ha! I wasn't even thinking about the scorpion, but you're right. I think I overlooked that because if I recall the shaman had it captive rather than having to go find it out in nature, so it could have been imported from somewhere that actually has scorpions. But then why would it be part of this supposedly-Mohawk ceremony?
If it's not clear from my entry, I'm not actually annoyed! Ludicrous disconnect from reality is part of this show's charm. I just enjoy a good rant from time to time.
