The stain of the sepia the butcher Crimea...it was always hard to tell if she was laughing or crying-obvious reference to Florence Nightingale, in this case treating a soldier in the Crimean war.

I thought I heard somebody calling...Can you love me like the crosses love the nape of neck?- Joan of Arc, with all the religious imagery and crosses and Bible verses.

Think back to the end of the first verese "Florence and Calamity and Joan of Arc" given the above reasoning that means Calamity Jane has to be coming up. "Jane shot the apple right between the eyes" and BOOM there she is. All three women were extremely successful and from a time when women were underclass citizens. The men mentioned (with the exception of Casey Jones) were failures. Is this Josh showing off a bit of female empowerment?
