The Pain in the Heart

[doc_3]

Just my initial thoughts:

1.  This definitely should have been a two-parter.  

2.  Tamara and T.J. were fantastic in this.  Both of them took a mediocre/bad script and worked miracles. 

3.  David and Emily seemed rushed in their scenes (see number 1).  I could have done without the bathtub scene, it was contrived.  I think this ep opens a lot of doors for them though.  Them together at the end really got me.  

4.  I don't know how I feel about Zack being the apprentice and losing Eric.  I just can't wrap my brain around it all.  

I need to sleep on this and maybe watch again.  My head's still spinning.  Ugh.

I'll say it again, Tamara and T.J. made this episode. I rewatched last night and that opinion was reinforced. They both turned crap into gold. Emily and David didn't quite get there, but to be fair they had way too much going on with their characters to do it justice. JFD has jumped his own personal shark for me. I really don't want him around anymore, he's turned into a gimmick.

Totally!!

What he did to Brennan was absolutely unforgivable, even without his usual unethical behaviour. I have half a mind to write a fic where Angela finds out he didn't tell Brennan on purpose and goes psycho on him. Transference anyone?? ;)

Haha, I would totally love to read that! That would be an awesome image, wouldn't it?!
