RE: Episode 1 Discussion
Re Harry and Ruth -- I agree, JHyde. Harry will say something in the vein you outline but it will be short of an actual apology. And truly, he can't apologize -- he did what was right. Additionally, would we really believe that the character Harry Pearce would apologize for doing what was clearly his duty? I don't think so.
Harry is Harry (and Ruth is still Ruth). Even though we might have wanted ep 1 to end with them rolling in the sack, or at least having dinner together, that doesn't ring true for either character. They're relationship was difficult (tortured?) to begin with -- it can't get better without some intentional character development/arc on the part of the writers or it will just be expedience. And I would hate to see Spooks bow to standard TV formulas. "What is the truth?" "Betrayal is a cancer. Let it eat your soul, not mine." "Please tell me this isn't going where I think it's going." |
