Wow what an episode. Firstly, I never had guessed that things would end up remotely close to where they did. The trauma that June has experienced really is expressed in such an artful way...the hotel, the hallucinations in the market, the reuniting with others, the moment where she just has to "stop" and take in everything... all the way to the climax we didn't realize we were uncomfortably shifting and waiting for the whole time... to her reunification with Serena.
This episode I think was just perfectly executed and the acting on display... the relationship between June and her man... the awkwardness, the love, the sex... it is all there, all so real... nothing about this episode seemed "fake" in any way. It was all just raw and real. The ending music touched me deeply and I admit I had a tear come down my right eye.
What a winner of an episode. I'd recommend this entire series to anyone just so that they could see this episode. I feel I could stop watching the series right now, and call it one of the best series I've ever seen. This episode just really wrapped so many things up yet left us with an uncomfortable mystery at the end... what is next for Serena? Where are things going? I really wanna know!
