I sorta read thru most of your posts about last nights ep.
BTW, Lu--great post! I think you should do reviews regularly!

Offensive Action--every aspect of this ep related to the title.
1. The perceived sexual harassment
2. Bud seeing his amputee friend putting the moves on a girl with his prosthetic in full view
3. Meredith in general (pick a scene)
4. Harm's comments to Mac about her and Farrow

Meredith and AJ (let's not forget Tiner!)--awesome comedy aspect to the show. JMJ has a knack for it! She's annoying, but at least I can laugh at her! And Tiner--OMG! He needs more air time!

Bud--PL and KT are doing a wonderful job with this emotional storyline. I do like it alot, doesn't need to be the A or B story, but it does need to be there. He's not getting his leg back, but he can get himself back and that's the whole point. I love his friend--and Lu, he does remind me of Cuba Gooding jr. too!

Manetti--my jury is still out. I am not fond of her, and I am certainly not sure where they are going with her character--but the accent HAS TO GO! And the cigar band--way too adolescent! Real stupid!

Sturgis--they should have just put his picture in his seat--he served no purpose in this ep--too bad.

Harm and Mac--not enough shipper moments but, I do think they are getting to "that talk" in a round about way. Trish brought it up too down the board--my feelings (as I posted my response):

Much of starting from the beginning is about being open and honest with one another. If you love someone, you can't walk on eggshells when it comes to honesty. Harm was being open and honest, maybe a touch critical, but it wasn't meant maliciously. I don't think Mac was hurt--she took it for what it was worth and accepted it. If everyone worried about hurting someone's feelings by being honest, no relationship would last. -- as far as I'm concerned, it's just building blocks--letting go of the past to pave a way to the future.

They're getting there--maybe not at the pace we would like to see, but the friendship is back and now their getting to issues.

I did like this ep--the twist, again, I didn't see it coming. I liked In Thin Air better, but this ep was good!
