"stopped just short of adding a doodle of himself on the back of Weevil’s motorcycle, both of them rumbling off to a future where Thomas knows he can tame him. "

"This episode also marks the welcome return of Dr. Deaton, the mystery vet."

Chairman Miaow — topical.

I don't want to like this, but I have.

He's in the second season as well. Just not this one.

This was very frustrating, I agree. There was a similar problem with the Being Human reviews as well.

In retrospect, my big problem with this episode is that Gideon, a man with a dire hatred of psychologists would be the kind of person Hannibal would trust with any kind of private information. I know there's a deniability to any of of Gideon's actions, but had Gideon been caught or decided to divert from Hannibal's…

@avclub-ea93d61158b479315c8e0d4cd003ec35:disqus My theory is that they knew she meant no harm.

I misheard too, curiously enough.

I reckon she knows he's a killer, but she doesn't know that he's a serial killer. He almost definitely killed the patient who attacked her years ago (though for a while I thought it might be Hannibal himself who attacked her, but discarded that as ridiculously out of character), and that's the reason she continues to…

She does seem better, yeah. And it's strange because I feel like it happened when I wasn't looking.

There's no way that Becca plot's over, is it? Bitch gonna take her revenge.

I think his visage was there though. I expect Isaac to replace him.

He's not a regular _yet_. Wikipedia says he's a regular now, but he's probably only going to graduate to the credits when Colton Hayes officially leaves the show's credits.

I love that they updated the credits for this season, swapping out some of the last season specific material for new shots. I hope they continue to do that — new season, new threat, new credits.

Who was where exactly? Needed more Colton. :(

So Don's on the fast track to some sort of suicide attempt, no? Between the death symbolism, the appeal of absence in his advertising (and the ad where a man walks into the sea) and then his jump into the pool in this episode, it almost feels too obvious.

I found this episode to move quite a lot — I felt for sure that Todd would claim it to be one of those episodes 'where the season realises that it needs to accomplish more than its already done' or whatever. Quite surprised to see it described as "marking time". I don't know quite why I feel that, but the Joan and…

I can't be the only one who's wondered that, right? Though given the plot with Joan, I could just be in denial.

Wait, wait, what? Southland was cancelled?
