I wonder if RA and NW had great fun filming together, because they're not usually sharing scenes alone or in that close proximity, that must have been different and fun!

Thankyou! I only got 4hrs sleep last night due to making that so i'm glad you like it. I just had to do it before i forgot!

That scene really stood out to me as pivotal. It pointed out how good Ruth was at her job and i think that's needed after two episodes of her being in a tight spot.

I also thought it was important as it was after all Ruth who did find out in the end. She thought something was wrong and kept tabs on him. Leading to his broken cover.

And i agree. Seeing them work together sort of makes me wish we saw a bit more of this. They worked so well together i was amazed!
(And i have to say that RA's delivery of that line was absolutely spot on).

RA and NW does shine very well together, that scene wouldn't have worked if those two hadn't been so phenomenal together, their chemistry is definitely there. It's a shame that it has to end, I was looking forward to more.

See if Lucas and Maya had any kind of chemistry and dynamic like that, maybe I would have bought that Lucas would do it for Maya and this big great love.

I wonder if filming that scene that poor RA was probably scared of accidently hurting NW if he was being too strong, I mean, RA is a big guy but he's rather big softie had heart, like a teddy bear.

I think a part of Ruth was probably heart-broken as well and probably did feel sorry for what Lucas became, I mean, it can't be easy for her to see someone who she probably did respect and admire turn down this broken path, it must have hurt her.

And gosh, Lucas's tone of voice in that scene, I swear it sounds like a kid who's afraid that his mother's found out about all the dark dirty things he had done. He sounds like a lost little boy who was afraid to disappoint his mom.

Honestly I think what's most heart-breaking for me is that this team is such a close family with Harry being the dad, Ruth being the mom, Lucas being the big brother, and the others being the little ones. Just seeing that family break up from the inside, to see one of their own whom they love turn so far down the dark path, that must have cut deep no matter how much they try to deny it.
