Numb3rs 2x20 - "Guns and Roses"
My my, there're many birthdays this month it seems: Happy Birthday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ninkasa, a good and fun day to you!
Yesterday was the last day of spring break - around 5.00 pm it also felt as if it was the end of spring, period. I was considering building my own ark, I swear. Today is still grey but I don't even mind because a) it's not cold and b) there's this wonderful smell outside - this, I don't know, earthly smell? The one we sometimes get after a good rain.
The following doesn't have anything to do with the above but I'm thinking I might buy The Sentinel DVD sooner than planned, after all. I mean, I've been coveting the box set since the day it was announced of course but I thought I would wait a little before caving in. Except I'm seeing all those posts about people on my flist receiving their DVDs, watching their DVDs and squeeing about how incredibly good Jim and Blair look on their DVDs and omg! *has envy* Still, I'm trying to convince myself to wait for after my birthday. But dude, it's torture!
On the subject of tv show. Numb3rs 2x20 was watched and it was a good Don episode. The man angsts so beautifully. It's nothing new, mind, but it still was wonderful to see.
Also, it makes me smile because apparently work is a great place to find girlfriends: Terry,Coop, Kim, Nikki and now Robin. Though if Don used the kind of lame chat up lines he used on Robin, it's a wonder he went out with so many women: 'clearly it's where we find all the pretty girls'? Don, I'm so disappointed! It's a good thing you're so hot, I guess, you could say the lamest things and women would still want to snog you.
Anyway.
I loved the conversations Don had with Alan. Daddy!Eppes always knows what to say, he's a wonder that man. And I love that he insists on some of his points because he knows Don is stubborn and that he'll need to hear certain things several times before he can - maybe - accept them.
My favourite convo between the two was the one about suicide. When Alan admits that if it had come to that, he would have understood mommy!Eppes' decision and, you know, this is such an incredible proof of love. I know some people don't believe in euthanasia and I do respect their views; but I don't agree. I hope I won't EVER have to face that kind of situation but I do believe in it. And to hear that Alan would have let Margaret go like that, to save her from a life of pain, which in fact, isn't a real life, well it made me respect and love him even more - and dude, that's saying something!
So anyway that was my favourite conversation between Don and Alan because it was a very personal talk and it dealt with delicate and painful subjects and I thought it'd been dealt with wonderfully.
The second favourite would be Alan pushing Don to give love and relationship a chance. And I loved his reasoning - when you're right, you're right, daddy!Eppes!
I quite enjoyed Charlie worrying about Don, and him running a formula against his life cracked me up because this is SO Charlie! The results were also awesome, Don would be okay because of his strong attachments to his family. Aww *melts*
Something I found awfully sweet too is how Charlie deduces that Don won't join them because of the pizza's choice. That's absolutely brilliant!
Onto the Random Stuff:
Larry and Charlie continue to be über cute - and I love how all those people in Numb3rs use space - they're always sitting on tables, kneeling on the floor, sitting on the floor, lying on the floor. They're all too cute.
Okay, when Charlie explains that he thinks someone else was in the room with Nikki and it's supposed to be that Big Reveal? Sounded lame to me. I mean I'd found out what was missing, ie that the reason why they couldn't get the same result on their monitor was because there was an echo missing - for lack of a better word - ie that someone was likely to have been in the room and that the same someone was responsible for altering the echo, and if I could understand that, then Larry and/or Charlie should have too. And not only that but they should have tried to see whether the theory was right or not then. Charlie explaining his theory afterwards just seemed odd.
I also watched the new episode of Doctor Who and I'm SO enjoying that new series! I enjoyed the second episode even more than the first one - so much fun! And some wonderful Torchwood shout out. I so can't wait for that one!
Oh and did you see the trailer for next week's episode? Giles! Giles in DW. And K9 returns, yay! I knew he would but I didn't think it would be so soon.
