*bouncing in seat* Eeeeeee, I can't wait for NV to get these last two eps up. (Curious, but did Papa Stone actually say the "though he could be" bits? I can just hear him saying that - TC's acting is just awesome like that. <333)

Call me crazy, but I'm siding with Berlanti on the hope thing here. I'm not giving up hope just yet that another network will pick it up, though I know it's unlikely. (Hey, my money's still on USA - they pick up shows all the time, and with Monk's final season this summer they're going to have an opening coming up. They love characters, Eli's got a whole cast of great ones...it's a perfect match! =D)

I see what you mean about the no closure thing, though. Honestly, ABC! That's prob'ly the least amount of closure in the history of series finales. >< (Yes, yay for Matt 'n Taylor, yay for Eli finally owning up on the Maggie issue, and yay for some cleared air with Grace - but wtf? What about all the rest they left hanging? Dx *Even more reason, right there, why another network should pick it up.

About the mountains Aaron says, "Could be heaven. Just as beautiful."

Eli: Are you my Dad, or...
Aaron: God?
Eli nods
Aaron: It's complicated. Don't push too hard against that.

Tom Cavanagh was brilliant, but so was JLM. As always when it comes to emotional scenes. SIGH.

Which one burst? anonymous April 10 2009, 03:59:32 UTC
Which aneurysm burst the one that causes the visions or the one that formed after using the Dark Truth and if the show ever does return one day do you think he'll still have visions even though he doesn't care what happens next.

Also Taylor probably doesn't have to say 'I love you' because both Taylor and Matt probably have a very strong bond and express their love through their body language. Does this make sense I'm not sure. I know this because not only do my parents say 'I love you' to each other but they also show it in their body language and they have been married for 25 plus years.

There's no clarification on which aneurysm burst. I certainly got the impression that the visions would continue. Eli said at the hospital, "One down and one to go."

I don't care if Matt and Taylor have a strong bond, I wanted to hear her say it! ;)

Nathan at St. Vincent's anonymous April 11 2009, 03:16:37 UTC
Does Nathan still do some work at St. Vincent's. I thought he was fired from there or since he was there doing Eli's MRI any way he was asked to consult in Diane's case. Also later on where does Eli find the snow globe in the hallway or on a counter.

Nate is at St. Vincent's with Eli when he gets his MRI and double checks the results himself. Diane is his patient and Nate, being the caring, hands on general practitioner that he is, visits her there and consults with her surgeon. Presumably his experience as the UNOS coordinator for the hospital is useful. He's probably used to being in direct contact with transplant patients.

Eli randomly finds the slow globe sitting on a table next to some chairs in the hospital corridor. See screencap:

Dr. Chen working with Nate anonymous April 12 2009, 05:10:10 UTC
I thought I read something a while back that Dr. Chen ends up working with Nate does it end up happening in this episode or was it just a rumor.

It wasn't in the finale, it was revealed in a TV Week story, apparently from one of the co-creators:

Eventually, Nate (Matt Letscher) and Dr. Chen (James Saito) would have partnered in their own business.
