aight. i haven't been here for a while. like 3 days. everyone seen a new movie called
Reno 911? well you can ask me in the same tone of voice the pants-less policeman asked his fellow cops after they drove into his car the tenth time - "WTF man?" i know it doesn't sound special when i WRITE it but the way he said it everytime was priceless. the movie was bad though, lol. so ... what was my point?
i think i didn't have one to start with, lol.
okay, i was thinking about our scene, i was also reading fanfics. did anybody else notice the big resemblence to Butterflied - the mirror (and the reflection of Sara in it), bathroom, sharp blade, butterflies?
i think TPTB wanted to make a point there, how enormous change our Geeks went through. not only with their relationship but also how they allowed another person to come close. especially Grissom, who was quietly obsessed about Debbie Marlin, now allows somebody to be this close to him with a sharp blade. he has a lovey-dovey look and closes his eyes trusting completely.
another thing is that when you see so much crime, murders, and evil every day, when you live in danger yourself, when you obviously have a lot of enemies who are only waiting to get out of jail, it's easy to get a bit paranoid. normal person allowing his girlfirned to shave him with a razor like this is trusting her that she is not going to cut him. for Grissom it is so much more, b/c for him murder is not unrealistic, like for any of us.
he is not a person who'd ever think that Sara would kill him, precanon or otherwise. but haven't we all been in a dangerous situation where we KNEW the person would never do anything to us, but we were a little afraid anyway? fear is not always something you can control especially when your proffesion is solving murder mysteries, and seeing the most unpredictable, crazy things normal people suddenly do. i'm not saying he was scared, b/c he wasn't. and this is the most meaningful thing he could show.
this time their scene was with no double meaning. it wasn't "i'm sending you a bug on a stick and you have to do a research and figure out the meaning yourself", or "i have a hungry look on my face - interpret it". it was the most straight - forward Grissom we've ever seen him. EVER. it was the first time we've heard him verbalizing his feelings for her.
GSR finally outwent GLH in the aspect of intensity of the on-screen moments i think. Grissom never said anything this direct to Heather. they flirted and all, but he never said he trusted her. more so, he obviously didn't trust her at all seeing what he did the morning after. he thought she is able to kill somebody.
my point is that it's beautiful how Grissom can open his heart AND his mind to her. he doesn't have regrets, he is happy that despite his solitary nature, he is able to make a life with someone and find true happiness, and it makes his life easier to go through.
i think that now he gained a greater understanding of people. i view his relationship with Heather as a kind that he was used to always have with women. there was attraction, sexual tension, fascination. but was there trust or love? nope. that's why Sara is so unique. would he let Heather shave him with a razor like that? heeeeeell no. lol
done with rambling. icons.
