Episode 7 Discussion [rewatch]

[Nia M]

I think she realises just before she says the 'Don't you just love Abu Nuwass' line. I seem to remember he says something, then she gives a little odd look and asks him that. As if she suspects him then, but she just wants to make sure.

Rewatches of this episode always make my heart break for Ruth's character trajectory. You could see that she was struggling with the job even in this episode and nobody but Danny noticed and then there was no time to grieve and well I just feel like she never dealt with this stuff properly.

The part at the end where she says the bit to Danny about "Promise me that we'll never end up as bitter, twisted and alone as he was..." or something like that always gets me. I know that that was foreshadowing for 3.10 but gees rewatching that after s9 really killed me. Irony eh?
