Lewis 803-804: The Lions of Nemea
Okay, this one has fewer caps than the last one, but there are some serious WTH moments with regards to Hathaway and the way he relates to Robbie and Laura.
First note: this ep was inexplicably heavy on the soft filter. Also, it featured Oberon (John Light) from last year's Globe production! Which means I have now seen two of the people in this ep doing live theatre, which is weird. Also, he was a dickface in this, and did not get shirtless, swing around on a rope, or kiss any boys, so I automatically like this character a lot less than Oberon. Just saying.
This bit of business was SO CUTE. Robbie punching James on the arm!
Hathaway's hearteyes, eeeeee! <3
James then buggers it up by trying to correct Robbie on his grammar. "Nobody likes a smartarse, James."
Ahahahaha, omg the burnt canneloni.
Laura's thinking it's lucky he's quite good with his tongue.
This was an interesting little unguarded moment for Hathaway, when Lewis comes in and demands if he even went home.
We actually get a couple of seconds where the mask drops.
So here's the most blatant example of Hathaway interrupting Robbie and Laura: they're about to have A Snog:
And right before their lips connect, Hathaway calls "Robbie!" Which means Robbie is distracted by thoughts of James while he's kissing Laura. Yeah.
I think judging by Laura's expression that she picked up on this.
Hathaway is unrepentant.
He then drags Lewis off for a stargazing date. I can't. Later on, Laura and Robbie are sharing a more domestic moment, and Hathaway interrupts again in the same way.
Half of Robbie's job seems to be running around after Hathaway and cleaning up after his socially challenged ass.
I think this is the same spot where they filmed the milk foam on the nose scene. Everyone in this fandom knows the one I'm talking about. :)
Laurence Fox's eyelashes. That is all.
There was a bit of a spark here between James and dickface's widow - hey, they're both blond, posh and overeducated - but hopefully that'll be it, because it's too boring. It's like he'd be dating himself.
Narcissism much?
The ending scene is gold. It's sad that this is the only time you see him really smiling in three hours of TV, but I love that it's delight in Lewis' goofiness.
I really feel like Hathaway was missing this - the weight of Lewis' compassion and acceptance surrounding him like a warm blanket. Hm, I may work that into a fic. :)
There's this lovely moment of rapport...and then this time, Laura interrupts, calling from the kitchen.
Lewis joins the others, and we get Hathaway's POV, isolated from the happy group.
Just - yeah, wow. What is with that face. Laurence, what are your choices.
