Episode 3 Discussion

[lwhite53]

I'm with Tea Lady--not happy with this ep. Too many plots and sub-plots (hostage taking of the billionaire's club, Harry and Ruth, Lucas and another Russian -- in a Speedo, yuck). One hour was not enough time to develop all the different threads; felt very let down by the writers.

Some nice R/H moments:
-H and R patter at the beginning -- "You, come with me." Such a gentleman, lol.
-H: It was either that or a basket of muffins.
-H: I'm going to need you today, Ruth. R: Damn well hope so.
-H: Glad to have you back. R: Glad to be back. Great acting from PF -- just a suble little hopeful smile.

The nod from Jo to Ros, giving Ros permission to kill her, was very well acted and directed. Poignant moment.

Spoiler: show

I have a feeling this will undo Ros.

Absolutely hated the end -- Ruth outside the office crying, Harry watching/listening and not going to her. For me, that undid the whole opening between them. Someone should smack him across the head with a 2x4!

And why is the Grid so empty? -- it looks like they're having a going-out-of-business sale.

This episode left me very unsettled.
