Thoughts! I has them.
- I am soooo sick of Morgana and Aggravaine. Seriously, either get competent, or give up.
- I know that within the structure of a television show, you have to subscribe to some conceits, but why the hell does Morgana not just waltz into Camelot and kill Arthur herself? Why doesn't Aggravaine stab him in his sleep? Anyone, and I do mean anyone, can walk into Camelot without any effort. I don't know why they even bother posting guards. I don't want Arthur to die, obviously. I just want some better villains.
- Having said that, I actually did enjoy Merlin being out of it for this episode. Mostly because he got to say all the things to everyone that I've always wanted him to say. Colin's comedic timing really is wonderful and I enjoy it when the writers put it to good use.
- I also like seeing Sir Leon having more to do lately.
- I think this is one of the first times we get to see Gwen in on the comedic action, too. Angel Coulby did a great job.
- I did not know go'uld symbiotes were available in medieval England. You learn something new everyday.
