    Oh Nancy!
    You bring alive this episode for me!
    Micheal and his young love for Catherine, Vincent's envy, jealousy, love for them both..
    and Vincent's anger at himself for being jealous. His own accpetance that Catherine may have even wanted Micheal's affection(ridiculous) and Catherine's debate for Vincent to accept his wanting of her... you bring it all alive.

    That is my take on it.

    I am loved.
    Nothing more
    Everything

    :) Everything.
    most wonderful
    love n hugs

    You are a Sweetie, Brit. Our Linda has been heard to tell people that, call them Sweetie. I borrow her word then...for you! There can't be a better fit!Thank you! Love, Nancy

    Nancy, I tried to leave a comment for you yesterday but Blogger (or Google, or both) flipped a grip and wouldn't let me. ;) So I'm back, trying again.

    I'm not a big fan of Michael (owing mainly for reasons of bad script-writing LOL) but the scene between Vincent and Catherine in this episode (you clearly know which scene LOL) is one of the most powerful in the series. And you've done a fantastic job capturing it, in all its torment and joys.

    Great job,

    Krista :)

    Thank you very much, Krista, for finding the scene 'captured' here. Is this the episode...I should watch them, shouldn't I?...where Catherine explodes at Vincent with, "There IS no life without limits!" The only thing I've always regretted was the script's word 'fate'..."If this is my fate I accept it joyfully"...ugh...loving Vincent and having his love is a universe more than a 'fate'!
    You know, I think I need to join an episode discussion group for venting purposes! Thank you, Krista, you never stop encouraging me. Love, Nancy

    Error Correction: Catherine accepts it 'gratefully'... but that's kind of lame, too. Where was Carole when they were writing these scripts??? :) Nancy
