I watched the Necessary Roughness finale and seriously? TK gets shot?

I'm guessing this is mainly to provide him with some PTSD to work through next season.

Also, I believe that I am doomed to dislike Marc Blucas' characters because I'm disliking his character now. Possibly because it appears that Nico is more available than he was before. (His reaction to seeing whatshisname come down the stairs? Interesting. . . )

Also: Luthor! We're only a week and a half from the season premiere!

also, he's going to have issue with the fact that he did the right thing, just walked away and still got shot.

I'm pretty much crushing on Blucas's character. Seems if he isn't Riley, I can like him a lot. Maybe I don't like Dani (is that her name?) enough, but I really can't see her with Nico at all. He's all twisty and dark and complex. Blucas's character's simplicity and candour seems a better match for her.

Was the typical wrong thing for TK to do to get into a fight with a civilian? Would he have done that pre-therapy?

I think he might have.

I think pre-therapy TK pretty much flailed about taking out his anger on whatever was nearest, so yes, he would have gone after that guy in the club. (You saw how he trashed his apartment when he was drunk, right? That's about how he handled his emotions. I was really impressed with how he dealt with the heckler, dammit. And now look what happened.)

But why would Nico come get the team therapist in the middle of the night because TK was shot? Out of all the various team management staff, why the therapist?

Me too.

I'm pretty sure pre-therapy he would have knocked the guy out or had his friends take care of him, rather than just walking away.

I have no problem seeing TK trash rooms or beat up players within the framework of a woman or game-related beef, but civilians? That's a big jump. He was a hothead but I didn't think he'd take it that far.

We don't know she was the first or only one he got. TK might be conscious, etc, and could to with someone to talk to.

I just can't see a pre-therapy TK being able to walk away from someone taunting him that badly or that persistently, but I could be wrong.

I think the fact that he didn't argue or posture or threaten was sense of his progress, not the fact that he didn't hit him.

My reaction precisely.

I don't think Dani could handle Nico, though I'd love to live vicariously through whomever he ends up with...except for that ghastly Owner!Wife. ick. I'd give him credit for better sense.
