You are so right, a prologue would've been nice. *rolls eyes* ;)<br /><br />@heidenkind - OMG! You are so right! Why didn't I think in those terms?! Monroe is the Flynn Rider prince of this episode! LOVE IT. And you are so right about Hank. He comes across sometimes as a bit of a cut-up but he really does take his job seriously and I love that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11986319237275869540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319032275293010502.post-44978062246517318422011-12-18T11:17:05.098-08:002011-12-18T11:17:05.098-08:00I loved that Eddie was the 'prince' of the...I loved that Eddie was the 'prince' of the story.

I fully expected Monroe to have to take the girl in for awhile and help her with the transition to eventually reunite with her mother.... Thought she might be an addition to the cast. I agree the ending was rushed. I assumed Addison kidnapped her and took her out to the woods and she attacked him there and escaped (along with some of his camping gear), but that was only implied.Lori Bentonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04714197239425827339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319032275293010502.post-37111404888904818972011-12-17T17:44:07.300-08:002011-12-17T17:44:07.300-08:00@Laura - Hello my friend!

Hope my blogs don't drive you too crazy. :) Merry Christmas to you as well! <br /><br />@Kaye - The idea of this plot was brilliant and well executed in many respects, but I completely agree with you the ending was way too rushed/not well thought out. I think if the vigilante brothers subplot had been left out, maybe there would've been more time to wrap up Holly's story. <br /><br />I didn't feel like the mother was guilty -- of course it could've been the now dead-father that wanted the girl gone. I felt like they were implying at the end that Addison was some sort of child predator that Holly went all wolf on when threatened...but of course, there were way too many loose ends to be sure.<br /><br />I sort of think the first killing was in response to her seeing Delmar threaten the hikers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11986319237275869540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319032275293010502.post-47908306679320242172011-12-17T16:37:39.896-08:002011-12-17T16:37:39.896-08:00I was getting ready to post this on FB, but saw th...I was getting ready to post this on FB, but saw that you'd already put this up, so I'll post it here.<br /><br />Maybe I wasn't really paying close enough attention while watching this episode, but the ending felt rather discombobulated to me. They never said exactly what happened between Holly and the neighbor. Did he kidnap her and take her out into the woods and that's why she attacked him? I half expected that the adoptive mother had discovered what she was and paid him to take her out to the woods to purposely "lose" here there and thus rid herself of a very troubled child (because you KNOW she had to be a troubled child at seven years old). What exactly was it that she was accusing him of in the lineup at the end? And why DIDN'T they take her to the hospital when she was burning with fever and bleeding from being shot with buckshot---which Nick said he couldn't get all of it out. Oh, and let's not forget the fact that she killed at least two people that we know about. And she wouldn't have had to kill the marijuana grower "in self defense" if she hadn't attacked him in the first place.<br /><br />While I do love the show and adore the characters (especially Monroe), this episode felt lacking to me---as if they had a great idea but couldn't quite follow through on it.Kaye Dacushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04187774900100851982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319032275293010502.post-66084326649131509482011-12-17T14:48:50.547-08:002011-12-17T14:48:50.547-08:00Hmmm, you're reviews/posts are so tantalizing ...Hmmm, you're reviews/posts are so tantalizing I am beside myself that we can't get this here:( Grrrr.
