I actually prefer that episode because its so dark. The threat of violence and take-over are so interesting and so real to the time. That period of history was full of violent upheavals.

The constant going back/forth between Francis/Mary is really annoying. I don't even ship them but I'd rather they just be happy for a few episodes than keep going back and forth.

They keep doing that to feed hope for the triangle and they shouldn't bother, but I actually am a sucker for angst so it doesn't bother me too much. But, if it keeps going for another 10 episodes, I'll be irritated.

I definitely understand that. But take, TVD, for example, SE were happy for 3 seasons while still playing up the relationship between DE and keeping the love triangle alive. Literally, F/M want to be together, then are torn apart, back together, apart, etc. Either keep them together or don't. But that's just me.

No, I agree but I felt I understand why they aren't fully together. First they were steal feeling each other out. also their external forces are intriguing to me. The only arc that bothered me was the Olivia/Bash debacle.

The pacing of the show is ridiculous, but at least it keeps it from getting boring. I mean, I thought the entire first season would build to Mary winning Francis over and that happened in episode 2.

so far I am really loving this season. I love the music, the characters, the outfits, and most of the story lines. I didn't really care for the Kenna/King storyline only because I was afraid it would go exactly the way it did. Poor Kenna

I am so excited for the new eps I am hoping we get more info on Clarissa, find out what happened to Olivia, see what Mary and Bash have been up to since they left, learn more about the pagans, see how Francis is dealing with the heart break, and find out more about the royal family. There is so much stuff going on with this show that I can't ever imagine getting bored

I do feel bad for Kenna even though she's kind of annoying. Out of all of them she's acting the most like a teenager in love, which is what she is. I hope she moves on from the King soon.

Yeah I think she's just really naive like many young girls are at that age. You find this handsome king who claims he wants you and will make you his new mistress, it's hard not to fall for that. At least she wanted for him to commit before she had sex.

In a way that kind of reminds me of Ann Boyln in The Other Boyln Sister. How she refused to sleep with the king until he found a way to divorce.

isn't that true with the real Anne Boleyn. Even Jane Seymour (Henry's third wife)?

But honestly I don't find any romance with Henry to be that great or epic.

Still unless Kenna wises up, and quit demanding stuff. I don't see much of a future for her.
