I think your point is important though. Of all the characters, he's been the most assured; even after prison, he's lost none of his swagger. I think that's fascinating, and truly want to know more about what could possibly result in a man like that.<br /><br /><br />I'm also really excited about the season, which is maybe why I find the Kalinda subplot a little distracting. I'm going to start focusing back on her multiple accents to distract from my hatred of Marc Warren.theoncominghopenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139769202527811820.post-32803602395202747802012-10-07T15:06:06.028-07:002012-10-07T15:06:06.028-07:00I look on the slight directionlessness as a positi...I look on the slight directionlessness as a positive, basically what this episode did was set up the season, but dammit it did it in such a way that I am really really excited to watch it and see which storylines go where, so I reckon it works. I am still surprised that there always seem to be fresh new storylines which seem (to me) so unexpected but are yet always a logical step from the previous ones. But maybe once you start writitng such complicated and interesting plots and characters that just happens of its own accord?<br /><br />I loved all the Peter stuff in this episode though. After my opinion swung back and forth so many times I decided that trying to decide which Peter is the 'real' one and which a fake pose (a ruthless, shortcutting politician and slightly dodgy chap or a flawed family man worthy of a second chance?) is a false dichotomy. I think we see in his different actions this episode that for Peter both parts of that personaltiy are his true personality and he himself has no problem being both of them, he isn't faking his willingness to reconcile OR his penchant for taking quick effective morally/legally questionable shortcuts to get things he wants.<br /><br />PS I loved Peter's 'GET OFF MY BUS' line at the end there.Tom Gnoreply@blogger.com
