***There's the clear dividing line of before and after her marriage on one side of which goes her childhood and on the other her adulthood.
Yes! Absolutely. Especially Issy being kept out of "adult" matters, yet suddenly she's married and an adult. That's tough at the best of times. Yes, an absolute dividing line.
***Yeah, there are few instances where I can kind of see it working, but no matter what it's going to be a big this to hear him say just because of how little he's willing or able to ever acknowledge those kind of things. But I do think if they have plans for redeeming Guy (as much as I crave it I'm not holding my breath) I think we might get it but even then in the it's-really-too-late-for-this-but sense.
Yes. He really can't acknowlege things like this. And I have to agree, it might be a well-here-you-go type of apology, a la too-little-too-late, and then only if it's shown to be of major import TO GUY and to what he holds dear...what could THAT be? Hmmm.
I wonder if they won't try to use it to bang the "Guy is Bad" drum one more time, prior to the (hoped for) Redemption Arc? To muddy those waters even more? And then have the "I'm sorry" be the starting point? Then something major and violent (season finale?) (I know...Looking in the sun again. Ah me.) I crave the Guy Redemption Arc too. It's just so...right there. I hope we're not all disappointed. We'll see about Issy and Thornton shortly . ;-)
