I took that to mean that Ilya has been biding him time holding all that information for the right moment. Like The Tortoise and Hare: slow and steady wins the race. I think he's also twisting the knife into Harry a bit, e.g. Ilya has been able to balance the professional and personal in a way Harry has not. Althought, JH's voice has been ringing eerily through my ears: "And a tortoise... in de gar-den." *Shudder!* He's one creepy dude!

The only other coherent thought I have been able to form is that Bharat Nalluri is a f*ckin' genius! This was one of the most visually stunning, exquisitely directed and expertly paced episodes of the 10 series. So good to have him back making the magic he created in the first place. It almost makes feel that if they had to go out, going out with Mr. Nalluri makes it worth it. Almost.
