Episode 10 Discussion [rewatch]

[Silktie]

I don't really know what to think about this episode. If you take it at face value and don't think about it too much, it's a great piece of drama and visually probably one of the best episodes. But once I start to really think about it, it's just too far-fetched for me. I can't help think that they all walked into Joyce's trap way too easily, but especially Tom and Christine. These people are meant to be spies, for Pete's sake, yet they just took every piece of information at face value. See, Tom, this is why inter-agency relationships is a very bad idea.

Also, Tom had no right to drag Zoe and Danny into his little operation, and then expect them to keep on lying on his say-so.

And I have to say that the love scene at the beginning between Tom and Christine is on my list of worst ever love scenes. I don't know what the director was going for, but they just end up looking drugged rather than in love. I laugh every time I see it.
