Er. Well. There may have been a small amount of exaggeration/hyperbole in that statement there. But dammit, this episode made me do it. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

(And seriously - why didn't they just put a "Slashfen, start your engines!" caption on that scene? I don't even ship them and I thought it was blatant.)

Candace was refreshingly normal, and in fact she gave me some small hope for the episode in the beginning. But I have always had a problem with storylines that involve privileged children killing each other over something so trivial as boyfriends, so as soon as Murderess showed up, the case started to go downhill for me. It's entertaining once or twice, maybe, when used for shock value that young people would be capable of cold-blooded murder (see: CSI, "Fannysmackin'"), but it's been done so often on Miami that I'm tired of it.

Also, Candace's mother was a twat and made the entire episode that much harder to sit through.

Out of all the stupid stunts he has pulled when it comes to facing deranged people with guns, that had to be the dumbest one ever.

You know, I almost didn't notice how dumb that was until after the credits started rolling. I guess I just sort of mentally filled in the blanks there - bulletproof vest, backup hidden somewhere...I don't know. But the stunt with the blanks just brought that all crashing down, because how could he COUNT on this kid stealing his gun? Kid's born into the mob; I'm sure he has access to all the firearms he needs.

I'm just going to sit here and pretend that the entire episode consisted of Nice!Ryan. Maybe that will make me feel better.
