Hi, Everyone! I'm
Star Wars Syl and this is the Remember Clone Captain Keeli blog.
Warning: This
post will contain spoilers for this episode, and any episodes that
came before it.
We're back to the “something went
wrong” intro speech. It's a bit shorter than the original one, but
I confess I prefer the openings we had for a couple episodes over
this particular intro.
“Leave a message and if I don't
get back to you it's probably because I don't really like you.”
What a wonderful
answering machine message!
Some
very heavy conversations took place in this episode. I think the
concept that stuck out at me most was when Cat told Vincent, you
haven't told her yet [about his
current condition and the threat to his life] and until you
do isn't all this just a fantasy?
In so many stories
we see characters who have relationships built on
carefully-structured falsehoods. Those falsehoods always end up
slipping, the other finds out, and the apparently idyllic
relationship either shatters or ends up very strained.
Too
often characters respond by it was all okay; the problem is
the other found out as opposed
to seeing the Fake Person as being the source of the problem. Cat's
way of looking at it was very interesting to me. Until you're fully
honest with your significant other, is that relationship even real,
or is it just an elaborate roleplay?
An interesting
thought to ponder.
