Silas gets the best lines. _This is the second time your Mother has given you life. It will be the last._ ---

I knew he couldn’t be dead. Ian McShane is just too good/evil to die. ---

I was happy to see that Silas had survived. Probably because it means Cross isn’t getting all he wants. ---

Just taking the opportunity to air out the tagline… ---

I liked the two guards’ role in this episode. “We open the gate, we close the gate.” “We have an important job!” Then later, “Can you open the gate?” It’s a shame this show was canceled. It has to be one of the best shows on network TV right now. On the other hand, Silas eventually has to go, and I don’t know how well the show would hold up without McShane. ---

Chris Egan’s doing fine as David, but he’d be deeply screwed if he had to follow up McShane ---

I could imagine Silas taking a puppet master-type role with David as the King. Still conspiring to control things that escape David’s notice. And maybe settle some old scores. McShane with a grudge is as good as it gets 🙂
