Lets hear it for the boys!
This episode belongs to Donald Sutherlands growl, Edgar Ramirezs expressive eyebrows, and Hugh Grants pathetic apologies.
Suddenly shes standing by Jonathan?
That doesnt seem like a great call.
But is Grace doing anything right, now that were halfway through this miniseries?
I do not mean to victim blame.
I cannot imagine what Grace is living through.
David E. Kelley has not done that so well.
Consider his actions: Detective Mendoza confirms to Grace that Jonathan is the father of Elenas daughter.
Jonathan knows he did a bad thing, but he was the victim!
Doesnt Grace know that he has a good heart?
How could he be a doctor and also be guilty of such a terrible crime?
(Jessie Buckleys Nurse Oraetta Mayflower from thecurrent fourth season ofFargowould like a word.)
This is, of course, going against everyones advice.
She doesnt do what Sylvia suggests, which is get her own attorney.
She brushes off her fathers concerns, while taking his money.
Instead, Grace basically goes on the offensive against everyone who ever said a bad word against Jonathan.
Who else is Jonathans act working on?
Henry, of course.
But, as we learn in the episodes final moments, she might have something to hide, too.
The way he rests his face on his palm!
The wiggling of those delightfully lush eyebrows!
Thats a pretty big revelation to have hidden until now!
Is Jonathan the only monster here?
The very declarative way that Dumezweni pronounces muck might have been my favorite thing about this episode.
You sound like me talking to my patients, Grace says to Haley, but is Grace still practicing?
Take a leave of absence, Grace!
His blithe Doctors tend to be assholes.
The reason they tend to be assholes is they get to be.
Although Im not sure he did Grace any favors when he told her he doubts Jonathans guilt.
Jonathans bail is $2 million cash.
Hm, I wonder who has that kind of money?
The sculpting hammer that was probably used to kill Elena is missing from her studio.
Seems like an important thing to remember for future episodes!
was a realArrested Developmentflashback, wasnt it?
