Okay: Bev's death tableau. God. Even given everything that's come beforehand, this has got to be the most viscerally disturbing and emotionally gut-wrenching moment in the show so far. Did you feel, as I did, like the first half of the episode was completely revolving around mourning Beverly? That's the impression I got--it's dark, somber, subdued. Even the music is tonally dark and minimalistic. And then when Will finishes the empathing thing and he and Jack are talking about why they even bothered bringing him, because yeah duh, they know who did this (well, that it was the Chesapeake Ripper anyway): "To say goodbye." *sob* Perfect. As usual. Dammit, I miss Hettienne Park! I support your ghost/subconscious idea--I want her to stick around.
(Hugh Dancy makes that mask look way more awesome than he should.) Guh. For serious. I'm having serious swoon attacks over here, and I know it's because he's sliding further towards the Dark Side. It just looks so good on him. (Help.)
Also, this:
Wow, now it looks like Will's dancing with Beverly and trying to get to know her again. No, I'm not crying, I swear I'm not crying!
*swoooooon*
The moment when he touches her face--there's no way that could've happened in the attack we didn't see in 2x04, so I wonder if Will was doing that as himself, rather than channeling Lector.
I'm still shocked--Shocked!!--that Orderly Guy got the drop on him. That's ridiculous. Stretches my suspension of disbelief just a touch. On the other hand, it came with shameless loops of gratuitous man candy, so I can let it slide.
Not even gonna TALK about the preview, which I didn't turn off in time like I intended to. Nope. Not saying a word. Except that I choose to believe That Thing Didn't Happen except in one of Will's nightmares, and won't be convinced otherwise until I see it in context.
ETA: Dammit! Keep forgetting how to do spoiler tags. I don't use them hardly ever.
