AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I thought my heart had healed a little since the episode aired, but no! I'm still bleeding and crying and bargaining with unseen higher powers to reunite our darling boys! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!
This episode was totally subtitled "The Love Story of Merlin/Arthur", BECAUSE IT WAS DAMN IT! There was so much going on I can't even! *flails*
And the others! Gwaine! *sob* My poor darling! As devastating as it was, I thought his end was rather a throwback to the legends, where Sir Gawain was often a bit reckless and stubborn (see him determinedly fighting Lancelot day after day and getting his ass kicked until he was dying from it). He and Percival went after Morgana knowing they had no defense against her magic, hence why they were all stealthy and shit, but still, she has magic and they had pointy mortal swords. Yeah, it's probably a miracle that Morgana didn't just cut Percival's throat before she started playing with her favorite knight.
The quiet, unassuming girl without any magic or social standing ended up

First of all, yeah, Survivor - seriously if you think you're going to be on the beach for 30 days, wouldn't you figure out how to start a fire witha stick

I have to confess, I saw your recap come up, and I waited a couple days to read it so I could make it last a little longer! Yes, that made sense in my brain. This episode gave me everything I wanted and everything I feared would happen. I am very pleased that the episode was very much about Merlin and Arthur, and their love story. I loved it, but I can't bring myself to see it again just yet since I know I will start bawling again. In fact, reading your recap made me tear up! Thank you very much for such wonderful, funny and insightful reviews. You have been one of my favorite things about the Merlin fandom.
