Thought it will be another rowdyish and adventurous simple story. Only
thought... Rowdyish - yes, adventurous - very well, but simple? Not a
chance! It was a very nice surprise and variety to see trials that fail
one
by one. Each idea to get out off the sinking ship was spoiled by
someone
from the group closed in. Spoiled for different reasons: stupidity,
fear,
malice, selfishness. The writers proved their ingeniousness multiplying
the
adversities, caused by nature or people (who are more "creative" with
regard
to this). The difficulty for them was also the fact they placed the
action
in one place in one time (like in old-fashioned good criminals,
although
hmmm it's not a Crime Story). We can feel the sense of being trapped,
but
not of helplessness. Not with Xenaaa (!) by your side, in whose mind
there
are always a lot of salutary conceptions.
I won't deny, I like qualmish endings. There is a little one here too:
Gabrielle looking out for beloved friend to appear alive from the
waves.
Sweet.
Well, summing up I give 4/6 points. It means the episode was very
interesting but I wasn't emotionally involved. But it's not a crime too
&:-)).
