What? I like Kate's clothes at the beginning of the episode, so then she changes them? Oh, and the forehead braid is gone? I liked it. And I feel bad for Kate because it's not like she takes more stupid risks than everyone else, but she suffers the consequences when no one else does.

Oh, look, the physician. Another interesting minor character who doesn't need to be a white dude, but is. This gets more and more tiresome.

PJ! Isabella and PJ!

And Team Castle is back!!!

This church burning thing really makes very little sense. Also, pssst, villagers, it's too late for water. Outlaws, are you not listening?

"But I am benevolent!" Eeeeek. That is all. I bet Isabella's going to put up a poster in her bedroom that says, "You don't have to be crazy to work here, but it helps!" And more Kyriarchy Ruins Everything: PJ can be as delusional as he pleases, but there's (historically accurate? Not sure...) madhouses for mentally ill people who are excessively poor or inconvenient.

Isabella, you're my favorite. Peej, you're, um...fun to watch?

So the Sheriff is telling Gisborne "Humanity is weakness" and this is hindering Gisborne... Yeah? Well what about an attachment to overly elaborate sadistic schemes? Isn't that weakness, too?

Also, there's a lot phallic wounding in this fight that I don't really parse. Anyway it's a very nice, dramatic fight, with weird complicated feelings mixed in. But Vaisey should damn well stay dead.

"Long live me." This episode was indeed fun. I wonder if it will be my favorite from S3?
