Re: Eric & Calleigh #20 -- With Every Fiber... Of Her Pa
I think my heart actually stopped once or twice in that episode. Stop hogging the defibrilator, Eric! Did it never cross your mind that some loony fangirls might need a shock or two?
I tried to calm down, I really did, but it just ain't happening. I'm going to attempt to type now, should be interesting. :lol:
Where the hell should I start? All the E/C scenes were phenomenal. Actually, I think that's an understatement, they need to come up with a new word for how awesome they were!
The first scene. Success! We got our hand-holding! Even at the start, Calleigh got to spend the most time with Eric, and her putting the cross in his hand was so perfect. The way she did it with such care and affection spoke volumes to me. The subtleties between them were at an all-time high in this episode.
During the investigation scene, I did see what Caro mentioned about Calleigh staring at the blood pool. Another small little detail that played out perfectly. I wish they'd gone in close on her face for this bit, but that might have made it too obvious. Still, Calleigh's fixed stare on it had a lot of meaning.
The second hospital scene - I died. It managed to be both heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time! I never get emotional about, well, nearly anything usually, but I swear I wanted to cry.. The first bit was so incredibly sweet; Calleigh just looked so distraught about the whole thing. Watching how her face lit up when he whispered her name made me melt and grin like a fool. She looked so happy and relived, yet at the same time, still so sad.
I actually felt my heart wrench at Calleigh's reaction when Eric started talking about Marisol. Oh dear God, you could see the pain she felt for him all over her face! Emily was so
on the entire episode! But yeah, broke my icy heart that did. :lol:
Hallway scene with Alexx - I lost it again. Alexx is pretty much the only person Calleigh lets herself be vulnerable in front of, and she certainly was here. Again, this made me think Alexx totally knows what's going on between them and the feelings there, she could tell just how cut up Calleigh was about the whole thing.
'He's different' = Heartbreak #2 Could she have been more distraught? I know as his friend she is obvious going to be pretty upset about him having to go through something like that, but there was something about her reaction that seemed
more than that, y'know?
Look at her face here:
Two seconds away from losing it completly. That is not the Calleigh we know, or that she lets us know, at all. She's never been so upset in all her life. Emily did such a fantastic job of making Calleigh look so upset and on the verge of tears throughout the entire episode, but right there is the money shot.
God, there was just so much fantastic stuff in this episode! I can barely think straight! I mean, the shoulder touch, the romantic music, the fact that she threw her head in her hands as Horatio walked away, Calleigh trying, but failing pretty miserably to stay in control in the interrogation scene. (Did you see the way she was glaring at that guy?!
) It's all too much for me. OVERLOAD!!! PLEASURE OVERLOAD!!!
Seriously,
monumental episode right here. And Calleigh cried! CALLEIGH FREAKIN' CRIED! MULTIPLE TIMES!!!
Dude, that's it, I need to stop before I give in to the uncontrollable urge to have a complete capslock typing spaz. I'll be back later, I just need to go and mail all my worldly possesions to Ildy Modrovich.
