The Killing + A Poll!

This week's episode of The Killing.

I actually don't know how to fully respond to this episode.

How.

This show?

HOW?

I just...

Yeah.

Sarsgaard completely broke me when he called "Get off of me," when it was clear that they were going to drag him away rather than let him see his son. Who was mere yards away. The delivery and the agony. I cannot even begin to explain what my insides were doing during that moment and all the moments that followed.

Veena Sud is a complete psychopath. Jesus christ.

I may have to fully react later because this? This is just nonsense.

God I'm still not over it, just thinking about it makes me want to cry (and the fact that this could happen somewhere, is happening, god it's terrible).

When they showed the guards at the beginning rehearsing the execution I thought oh how clever, showing us what's going to happen without showing us the real thing. LITTLE DID I KNOW. I mean just the sounds and that one moment of Ray's POV when he's walking and the tunnel vision and Linden's fucking face at the end.

I don't know if I will ever be over it. Maybe with time. But I don't know. That moment where Seward has accepted his death and is waiting for Adrian, with all that hope for what their meeting will be like, to have it so cruelly ripped away is probably the thing that will haunt me the most about this episode. I mean, his botched hanging is bad, but the Adrian thing is what killed me in this episode. I kept waiting for the phone to ring.

And his last lines. I loved them, but then I hated them. Because it was over.

And he's was right there ughhhhh. Did you read the interview Veena Sud and Peter Saasgard did about the episode? Peter says something along the lines that he's glad in a way Seward didn't get to see Adrian because what is there to say, there's nothing you can say. Which just kind of destroyed me again because it kind of echoes Seward's question to Linden about what to say and she says everything.

I re-watched the ep and it wasn't any easier even knowing what happens :(
