I liked the concerned Cat and V scene in the beginning when he was shot. They should have shown him stitching himself up-that would have been hot. I loved the Cat and V scene where she was like "we are partners." They are just adorable. I hated seeing V attacked with a cattle prod. It was hard to watch. It truly made me feel horrified because they completely viewed him as an animal. The scene with Cat and Tess at the end was cute where she asked the questions and I loved that Cat was like "somewhere in between." She is so bold and I just love it. She's like so what if my bf is a half human half beast, I dig it. That scene at the end was everything. It was one of my favorite scenes ever between them. Just so beautiful and one of the most intimate scenes I have ever seen on tv. Just the way they were standing and touching and looking at each other and the way Cat looks at Vincent and smiles, it just screams love. The acting here was just mind-blowing to me. And the kissing was adorable! I loved it! Some people want them to always be making out like they are filled with lust, but to me they kissed like they were in love here and it was lovely. Such a beautiful and so nice to see Vincent had a heard time leaving and when he looked up at her and smiled after the jump and she smiled at him, just stop you adorable kids. They just conveyed how much they loved each other so much right there. Painful for Evan to see, but good drama, and I loved it! I just wish he hadn't been killed off bc I think there were more stories for him in the future...I heard it had to do with a lot of things including the budget according to an interview with the EPs...JR and KK made that scene looks so real and intimate and loving like a real couple...just wonderful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-19345718934221927832013-09-16T20:45:20.311-04:002013-09-16T20:45:20.311-04:00Nina did some good work as Tess in this episode, b...Nina did some good work as Tess in this episode, but this episode pushed me to the height of my Tess dislike. Vincent always jumps from buildings, so it was not unusual that he would do it here. And I totally enjoyed it, it was hot as was the make-out session with Cat. Never liked Evan and loved it when he saw that he had no. chance. whatsoever. with. Catherine. LOL Thanks for the recap. Hope your move goes smoothly. <br /><br />taurusroseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-90214664278635334362013-09-15T13:03:46.385-04:002013-09-15T13:03:46.385-04:00Love the ppt slides to tell the Vincent beast stor...Love the ppt slides to tell the Vincent beast story. <br /><br />"Tess to protect Vincent was to put her in a life-threatening situation and have him save her… works every time [except with Evan]." <br />Love this so true your attention to detail and your ability to connect different episodes (another one "the cheese factor") is what makes your recap so AWESOME and transports the reader through memory lane of different episodes.<br /><br />End the end scene was another example of my comment above. I was reminded of Saturn return as I read this recap and all the pull and push of Vincent and Catherine before all the mouth sex - (excuse my French)...<br /><br />Can you imagine Evan's state of mind at the moment-- not only Catherine is making out with the man, said man turns out to be the Vigilante she chose over you as a potential lover and also as a friend....and he can jumps through buildings like superman and turns back at her with those dreamy eyes as she loses her mind....damn I wish I can hug Evan until he "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" of that moment. <br /><br />I was really shocked and saddened that you are moving to England....and now that I wrote that I realize I must come off very selfish so I will re-write. I am really happy for you that you are moving to England. Through twitter and your blog I have come to feel that I know you and you are a friend I see and talk to from time to time - the power of social media. Anyways in all honesty I wish you all the best! I will look forward to your BATB recaps of Season 1 and Season 2 but if you can not do them as life gets in the way I am very grateful for the ones you were nice enough to post as they are brilliant, funny, intuitive and much more...<br /><br />@itslulim<br /><br />LulsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-61508143851068994082013-09-14T19:26:24.529-04:002013-09-14T19:26:24.529-04:00Regardless of whether it is CW or anything else, s...Regardless of whether it is CW or anything else, sloppy editing is sloppy editing. Any network can be guilty of it. We just hope that in season 2 it will be much better on the editing front. kiki09https://www.blogger.com/profile/11291956752826134513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-62692746655796122292013-09-14T19:21:51.098-04:002013-09-14T19:21:51.098-04:00The safe haven is the tunnels.

I absolutely loved the smile on Vincent's face when he landed after that jump from the fire escape. In all of my years of tv/movie watching, I have never seen a man as gorgeous - and sponge-worthy (Seinfeld reference)- as Jay Ryan. Oh my lord.<br />And yes, the show editors are really sloppy. I felt that way especially with the finale. But, we have to remember that it's the CW and not PBS. <br />Good luck with your new adventures! How exciting! And, you will get to see Downton before we get it here. So glad that you are continuing with your BATB recaps and selfishly hope that you find the time to do so with Season 2. <br />All best,<br />Denise in NYAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-57808848365857766612013-09-14T09:45:32.046-04:002013-09-14T09:45:32.046-04:00Awesome TYAwesome TYAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16414435291232287573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-54972604081029379002013-09-14T08:02:28.326-04:002013-09-14T08:02:28.326-04:00another excellent piece of work for another loved ...another excellent piece of work for another loved it/made me want to scream episode. I think perhaps the producers allowing the scene with Catherine pleading with Tess over Vincent to have the most crucial line cut is a perfect example of why this show is still in jeopardy going for S3 - the people who allowed this edit in the episode without cluing in that their audience would see it in the preview - so arrogant.<br /><br />CANADA - they are already here (or there since I dont get home much) - more than happy to welcome them but ??? what happened to the "safe haven" Vincent told Catherine about in Saturn Returns?? - again with the audience is too thick to pick up on stuff vibe<br /><br />The Tess/Vincent scene was so well done by both of them - Nina played is just right - terrified yet intrigued and basically searching for anything that could help her understand where Catherine was coming from at the same time feeling devastated at how little she really knew her. And Vincent, trying to get through to her why Catherine acted as she had. <br /><br />I felt that Evan in this episode finally admitted to himself the depth of his feeling for Catherine - actually talking about her out loud to JT crystallized things for him at last. Necessary for both of them.but Unfortunate that he came over when he did and saw what he saw - it was a lovely scene and spoke volumes about how they felt about each other - there was no way he could miss it and then - Vincent jumped - poor Evan his heart must have stopped right there and then.<br /><br />Have a great time in the UK - if I was over there I would invite you to the perfect afternoon tea - at Browns Hotel - http://www.brownshotel.com/dining/the-english-tea-room/ - this is the hotel that Agatha Christie always stayed in when she came to London and that she wrote about in her novels - its well worth the visit and much more elegant than the Ritz.<br /><br />Lady (not currently) in the UK (Kazakhstan, for my sins)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2713073643028066347.post-72767526394301146252013-09-13T13:36:15.251-04:002013-09-13T13:36:15.251-04:00once again, thank u!once again, thank u!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
