So, in your view, Christian simply doesn't have to accept any blame, he's merely speeding up the inevitable? See, I couldn't do that. I can't see it that way. That, to me, is . . . chemically impossible, I guess; it's like breaking one of the rules of physics: you don't create or destroy matter, you just move it around. Everything is affected by everything else; everything you do touches everything else. If the police called the media and tipped off the Carver, then it's their fault that the next victim is taken; if Christian does, then it's his fault . . . I don't know. Maybe I'm too simplistic and holistic or something, but that's how I see it. And anyone that has any kind of conscience would have to consider that, wouldn't they? Sean would. Sean did, you know by his reaction when Christian told him what he did that he considered it. And -- no, Christian thought about it, he knew what he was doing! He says so, doesn't he? He just didn't care. I just . . . gah! I don't know.
But again - my face punching desire for Sean long predates this recent incident for which I don't particularly wish to punch him. I understand the conflict. His S1 affair was more face-punchable...
Here's where I'm hypocritical. I'd agree with you, except Megan O'Hara is probably my favorite character, and that -- combined with my incredible, unwavering hatred of Julia -- makes it difficult for me to fault Sean for that. I know that I should fault him for it, and I realize that I'm being amazingly hypocritical in releasing him from any blame, but . . . I just write him off as looking for solace.
*giggle* I love that you have so much pent up hostility against television characters . . . you're so manly and virile, Dave.
