Hannibal 110
It took me a whole week to write down anything about this episode. Why? Well, I was actually so full of feelings. If I tried to put them into words, I would pretty much go all "ADAHFANSDBAIALSDFKKFJK!!!" Kinda sorta...
My favorite parts of the episode were the scenes with Will and Jack. I just love seeing Jack all protective of Will. Sure, Hannibal's manipulations are always fun - and disturbing! - to watch but Jack's reactions are genuine. He really, really cares about Will. He just doesn't realize how bad Will's state of mind is. And that he basically sold Will to the Devil himself when he sent him to Hannibal.
The bits with the girl who thought she was dead... Creepy! I mean, Will already has one stalker/psychopath on his heels. It's like he's a candy that everybody's suddenly got the taste for.
And if anyone has ever doubted that Will's a submissive...
Exhibit A: Hugh Dancy in Hannibal...
Exhibit B: Hugh Dancy in Venus in Fur
I wonder if that was a conscious reaction on Hugh Dancy's part, to play the scene like that, or if he didn't even realize it. I wonder if he's consciously playing Will as a submissive man. And I also wonder if that, his submissivity, is why everybody is feeling protective of him. I mean, everybody else - Hannibal, Jack and Alana, even Beverly - are pretty much alphas, top dogs, people who make decisions and lead. And every one of them feels the need to... protect Will or manipulate him. Food for thought.
