+ I loved the Liz Kyle confrontation. Everything about that was so great. I loved him calling her on running to confront him instead of Max. I loved him refusing to feel guilty for keeping it from her because medical ethics is a thing. I really really loved - "You used his DNA, Liz. Without telling him. Max didn't put you here, you did. When you decided to put science above everything else." Because I love Liz but wow, was she wrong about this one specific aspect of how everything went down. So wrong.
+ "If it were you, I would not cover it up. I would burn the entire world down first." ... okay that really worked for me. I loved how he said it - not as a confession of love but stated baldly as an incontrovertible truth in his life. And then he drives away without waiting for Michael to say anything. It was so great. I loved Michael's reaction to it. Honestly I've never shipped Michael/Alex and in fact have often actively disliked them. Last season's finale had me liking them and their short interaction here continued that.
+ I also loved Alex smacking down Michael's self-pity/angst/self-loathing spiral. "I hate to break it to you Guerin but there isn't a special set of rules that apply just to you. You decide who you are. If you give up its on you." Really harsh but also I think very necessary. A+ Alex.
+ I'm very excited about Isobel bringing up Max's words about "there has to be three" and "we're a triad". Dare I hope that this season is actually going to address what that means?
+ I appreciate Jones pointing out that the trio are fractured because they really are and all I want from this show is for them to finally be happy and together, whole and acting as one, a cohesive unit. I'm hoping this season will address the many issues between them, and the lies, and they will end it stronger than ever.
+ "I still feel empty inside." Okay, YIKES. I really hope this is leading to Kyle finding something better in life rather then death. I am very worried about him.
