I just ... I can't ... I don't even. LEGEND OF THE SEEKER. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE ME. I DON'T CARE IF YOUR DISTRIBUTORS ARE DUMB ASSES WHO DROPPED OUT OF IT. YOU. ARE NOT. ALLOWED. TO LEAVE ME. COMPRENDE?!
CARA. CARA PLZ COME BACK. I was just so sad to see her all ~evil~ again, and I may have freaked out just a little ... a couple of times. nevermind all that. I love that we were able to SEE how powerful the magic is that is keeping her that way, and loyal to Darken Rahl, that was an excellent device they used, because I was like 'well, can't she just be unbroken again?' granted - that was insane amounts of magic Rahl used, but I love that we can actually SEE how fiercely it grips her:
Now. Going into this world, I knew that it was temporary. It has to be, right? Right. I knew that I would inevitably be let down because while it's not a lame as ~dream sequence~, it's still not what we will get for the rest of forever. So with that in mind, I was fully willing and able to embrace it. I was like OKAY. HERE WE GO. THIS IS GOING TO BE FUNLAND. LIKE A DAY AT DISNEYLAND, WHEN YOU KNOW YOU EVENTUALLY HAVE TO GO HOME.
and enjoy it, I did.
WEDDING! WEDDING! OH HI REALLY GORGEOUS PEOPLE BEING ALL HAPPY AND CUTE AND MARRIED.
I love the way they made this all make sense. That it wasn't just like this random ass thing where Zedd reversed all the magic ever and it was as though NOTHING they'd ever done had happened. I LOVED that it was all because of Cara's not being there that their lives changed, so it was only that year that had effected their "now". IT ALL MADE SENSE. Oh Mike Sussman, please teach me how to write like you.
I made ... SO many gifs of Richard and Kahlan in bed together. They were so perfect and beautiful and ADORABLE AS HELL. When she was like "btdubs, I'm 3 days pregnant." I am fairly convinced that the pair of them spent all three of those days in bed having sex. Because it looked that way and because, uh, wouldn't YOU? Yeah. That's what I thought. KAHLAN IS SO EXCITED TO BE A MOMMY D: I might even say that my favorite part however, was when the knock at the door came, and Richard/Kahlan totally pulled what every fan of the show was thinking "...Zedd. Perfect timing." GO AWAY. nevermind that it was your adorable redheaded sister. WHATEVER, JENSEN. I love that Kahlan was like "oh no, I'm not getting out of bed."
please pause for a Rahl brothers gun show:
ahem. anyway. Other things. I hate that the sisters just were like "o, we'll cut a friggin MAIN VEIN and let Jensen die horribly. D: how dare you, evil sister bitches.
oh yes, and the part I was most vocal at. Not the HOMFGBABY! moment, because I was expecting that. Not the OH HAY JENSEN, because I was expecting that. Not the cockblocking of (what we thought was Zedd) but actually Jensen. Oh no. None of that. This was what I shot up from the couch and screamed at my computer in complete joy from:
me: "OH MY GOD LEEEEOOOOOOO! LEO! IT'S LEO! HI LEO! LEOOOOOOOOOOOOO! KEEP THIS WORLD, PLEASE." yeah, pretty much that. God damn now I want a Cara/Leo line so fucking badly. I didn't realize how much I missed him until we got him back. It almost makes me hope/wonder if they'd let us have him back by some random way in season 3. BECAUSE WE ARE GETTING A SEASON 3, EVEN IF BY FORCE.
"Did anyone ever tell you, you're a real task master." aks;dfjasdf OMG I LOVE THIS WORLD SO MUCH.
"I picked these for you. They match your dress." OH LEO. YOU ARE CHEESEBALL IN ANY VERSION OF THE WORLD.
Omg her getting all sneezy over them. SHE IS SO FUCKING PRECIOUS IN THIS WORLD. PRecious ... and then she's like "oh. I'm so ~innocent~ we have some time without my children." HER LINE KILLED ME "I suppose I can find something else for you to do ..." I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE, CARA. ZEDD. YOU LEAVE THEM ALONE YOU OLD FART.
I love how concerned Kahlan is for Cara in this world. She's like BUT BUT. SHE'S HAPPY. SHE HAS BABIES. LEAVE HER ALONE ZEDD YOU MEANIE. bff's in any world, I tell you. Oh and secret girlfriends, duh. When Zedd woke up Cara and she was CRYING and begging Kahlan to let her go, I swear I wanted to cry. I was like YEAH. LET HER GO BE WITH LEO~ okay, so...the fate of the world depended on her being reversed back but COME ON. SHE WAS SO SO HAPPY. Omg I'm so not used to seeing Cara all wibbley and crying and innocent and OMG HONEY. Tabrett Bethell. You are a freaking incredible talent. Which, I have already told my friends in development at ABC to keep their eyes out for Tabs and Bridget. Craig's name was apparently was already tossed around back in pilot season or something, idk.
And Dahlia needs to die in a fire. Again.
I will however, say that the nagging thought that has been with me the past few episodes: WHERE THE HELL IS NICCI?! OH. NEVERMIND. In going frame by frame in the preview for next week, SISTER NICCI IS BACK, BITCHES. And in black. And looking badass. and doing something to Kahlan which I do not approve of.
I cannot even fathom that this show would only have one episode left. I refuse to allow it.
