The moment of truth
So here's my review of the episode.
This is by far my favourite episode to this date! I liked that this episode was more focused on the interaction between the characters instead of magic creatures, magic shields or poisonous liquids.
The foot in the face scene, I don't think I will ever grow tired of that one! The way they were lying, talking, teasing,.. lovely. As Morgana says, Arthur may act as if he doesn't care, but he cares. By the way, Merlin's reaction when he heard Morgana say this, how sweet was that! He was just so happy, as was I.
As for the fact that the mother even noticed that there's something going on between Arthur and Merlin, I didn't quite see that. She likes Arthur (see the coin reference) but to me it didn't seem like she meant anything "more" by it.
For me their relationship really developed here. Especially from Arthur's side. I thinks it's the first time that he realizes that Merlin is more than a manservant to him. You could argue that he realized it in the third episode, however in that ep Merlin's life was at stake. Merlin risked his life for Arthur, so by saving merlin it was the only way that Arthur could repay him. Here he didn't have to do anything, but he went along anyway, because he cares, he really does.
I' ve read that a second season has been commissioned. But does anyone knows when it's gonna air?
