Episode 6.10 [Re-watch]

RE: Episode 6.10 [Re-watch]
I really like this episode, the scene between Jo and Malcolm and Jo's impassioned monologue about the plight of imprisoned women everywhere being particularly good. She's also at her best arguing with Adam about Zaf's death and why they shouldn't be cold about it.

Jo has functioned very much as the heart and soul of the Grid in this season, and this episode cements her in this role. And it's nice to see Adam going nuts on her behalf. MR did a stellar job in season 6 and Jo's growth as a character (yes, I know I've said it at least 10 times already) is truly one of the best things in an otherwise quite lack lustre series.

Lots of funny bits too, mostly between Harry and various other people, from Malcolm to Adam to the Ambassador (I think....admittedly I haven't re-watched this one....) I think the plot is also a good one, making a school as the target really rachets up the drama, obviously coupled with Jo's kidnapping it makes the stakes quite high.

A point about timelines. I think there is a fair gap between episodes 9 and 10. This is mostly because of Ben's training (which had to take a little while, surely). I've argued about this with others, mostly fan ficcers, but I genuinely feel like there's some time that's meant to elapse before this whole messy season wraps up.

Also sad news about Zaf but as expected. The poor guy had the worst ending for any character on the show before and after him as he really SUFFERED. Everyone else has blessedly gone quickly. Lucky them. Utterly tragic - he was not only a lovely character but horribly underused (probably why Raza left, at least in part). And yes, the poor guy is dead - no more threads asking if he's really gone guys!
