katikat | The Mentalist 409, Merlin 411

I liked that Jane gave the football player another chance with his wife and that the guy actually learned something from his experience. I also liked Rigsby and his girlfriend, they are incredibly funny together. I hope they don't break up and that Rigsby doesn't get back together with Van Pelt - but I fear he will *sigh*

You know, I hope that the last two episodes of this season will make up for the five or six very weak ones that we got in one row *sigh*

In this episode, there was so much plot built on coincidence that by the time Arthur found the ring I was almost rolling my eyes. And honestly, if the writers' plan is to make Gwen a martyr, they're doing a very good job. It's so over the top, it's cringe-worthy. And of course, Agravaine gets the free card again - how many times did that happen already? I liked the last scene with Arthur and Merlin best, I guess. Other than that? This episode was mostly a waste of time. Agravaine stealing the plans could've been squeezed into the previous episode or the one before that, nothing else had any lasting impact *sigh*

I'm actually thinking of keeping next week's episode and then watching it and the season finale together since it's a two-parter.
