Me?  Surely you jest.  I NEVER eat humble pie  (Rhubarb is my favorite.  Offer me Rhubarb pie or crumble with creamy custard and I'll be your friend for life)

Honestly I really can't be bothered to go through the entire episode with comments.  It was a decent episode to watch for the first time, but it's telling that I actually haven't rewatched it since.  Back in the day I would have seen an episode 4 or 5 times in the first week alone to have extracted every sad little nuance from it.  That I've been ( Read more... )
