See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Anyone else watch the finale to In Plain Sight?

I saw it!

“Not dead yet!”

I saw it!

What did you think? I was constantly pausing and rewinding certain wonderful bits. Like Stan at the hospital. And Marshall's lines about the bad PR.

I didn't understand why the witness was permitted to move to that house. There had to be some sort of middle ground between "one of the worst areas in Albuquerque" and the mansion where she was uncomfortable. I'm glad Stan called the obnoxious government guy on it.

And I knew Francesca was going to be a problem, because she's a True Believer, and those people are always so focused on their end goal that all other considerations become road kill. I am surprised that Marshall wasn't more verbally abusive to her.

I really liked Rafael last night... I always assumed the only reason that relationship worked at all was because he was so easy-going that he was able to tolerate her sometimes harsh personality. But this season they've allowed him to grow more of a personality, and I especially appreciated the 'what makes you think you have the right to tell me what job I can take?' conversation. And I liked his conversation with Marshall at the hospital.

However, I am not a fan of cliffhanger endings. Although this one isn't much of a cliffhanger, I suppose, since she's the central character and the show needs her to go on.

“Not dead yet!”

The biggest cliffhanger for this is who shot her-- I wonder if it's going to be a government plant in the neighborhood in order to take out/somehow blame Francesca and allow the government to further manipulate the situation to their satisfaction. Which would answer the question as to why they allowed Francesca to move to that house in the first place. Why they put her in such an absurdly ridiculous house they had to know would make her incredibly uncomfortable.

Agreed too, on Rafe's growth this season-- he's far more flexible than Mary which is part of what allows the relationship to work, but he's not completely spineless.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I found tonight's "The Closer" incredibly enjoyable despite the gross subject matter.

Art Crawl!!!

I thought so too! The characters were so . . . them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like that Gabriel seems to be back in her good graces. Thinks were a bit messy after...what was her name? Daniels got promoted out.

I loved Fritz's anger at Charlie, but I might have decided it was time to force her primary caregivers to man up and take care of her. The anvil that fell on Brenda's head was a bit large.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Given that Fritz is in AA, I thought his anger and actions were more than justified. I think I'd kick her out too.

Brenda certainly was magnanimous though.

hell, yes. And how fucking stupid is it to send pot to a house owned by a POLICE CHIEF and an FBI AGENT. I mean, really.

And I was kind of okay with Charlie being a stupid teenager until she said "It's not my fault you're a drunk". That was vicious and uncalled for, and WAY over the line.
