Retcon Patrol 1-15: “Love Is Difficult” Part 5

by


Today we conclude our search for inconsistent or comment-worthy moments in the Brothers & Sisters first season with a look at the fifth and final part of Episode 14. Read Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4 if you need to catch up, then dive right in here with Part 5.

35:10
Joe is playing Vivaldi’s Fifth Guitar Concerto in C. Although Dueling Banjos would have been more apropos.

35:43
I’m with Joe. Skip the therapy, and keep playing that pretty music.

36:05
Dramatic close-up on the handshake between Holly and Tommy, like maybe there’s going to be an earthquake because of it or something.

36:34
And introducing … Emily VanCamp as Rebecca! Give her a round of applause, ladies and gentlemen.

37:09
I kind of miss the old inappropriate wild child Rebecca. Pre-bangs.

38:08
Matthew Rhys’s sweater in this scene with Chad is almost exactly the same color as his eyes. Good work, wardrobe department! (Or contact lens maker!)

38:47
The case Kevin’s working on is what all cases are about, lies and broken promises. You’re halfway to a country song there, buddy.

39:03
Kissing in an open doorway seems to be this show’s favorite symbolic gesture of being okay with your sexuality and/or choice of partner.

40:11
Aw, everybody’s gathered in the kitchen to listen to the story about Dora. Perhaps Nora has bolted the doors. The fact that I know this is all leading up to the horrible professor storyline dampens my enthusiasm for Nora’s fiction even more.

41:20
Sarah’s therapist is going on about the value of pain, and I guess it’s all deep and meaningful and tying in to our theme about the difficulty of love, but … I wonder if there’s a high suicide rate among this guy’s patients, because he’s depressing the heck out of me.

That’s five days of catch-up on Episode 15. Next up for Retcon Patrol: “The Other Walker.”

    :-D Yes, me too. Terrible. It was very deep, but not exactly what Sarah needed to hear..
