An Hannibal centric episode is always a win in my book!

A lot of people were complaining about his supposed lack of screen time so far and they were well served with this episode!

Beside the fact that our cannibal serial killer was ridiculously hot and good looking all the episode, Sorbet was one of the best episode of the season because of

- Hannibal at the Opera!

Enough said!

- the introduction of Bedelia Du Maurier and she's sensational while her scenes wasn't spectacular at all since she spent the entire time sitting.

Everything was in the very good and amiguous dialogues.

I remember the discussion in the fandom about her scenes, which seemed directed and edited so differently from the rest that people started to wonder if she was real!

- the 1st apparition of Tobias

- the return of the Chesapeake Ripper taking advantage of an uninteresting killer of the week to play with a hide and seek game with the BAU time, enjoying very much their confusing...

- the start of Hannibloom?

The flirtation in a shirt while cooking - well, basically porn

It was damn hot but it was their only one openly flirty scene during season 1

Quote:

“I think in the scene in “Sorbet”, where Alana is essentially functioning as Hannibal’s sous chef and getting ready for his dinner party, we suggest a history of those two characters and a slight manipulation on Hannibal’s part to remove Alana from the Chesapeake Ripper investigation. And that was very much about not wanting to hurt her if she got too close or got too insightful. So he conspired to keep her busy so she couldn’t be Miriam Lass in that investigation, and that was very much about protecting her.”
- Bryan Fuller on Hannibal and Alana’s relationship

- The incredible music

Few questions to start the discussion:

- How much does Bedelia know?

- Does Hannibal really consider Will as a friend? Was he really hurt when Will didn't show up at their appointment?

- Is Franklyn really more creepy than the Rolodex of business cards of futur victims?

- What are your favorite scenes and your favorite quotes?

I crack up every time when I see that scene, after someone made that video of it where that 'Don't wanna be all by myself'-song plays in the background.
Hannibal is such a drama queen.

OMG I *need* to watch this

Hannibal at the opera is the highlight of the ep for me

Except for that pacient of his staring all the time and almost ruining the moment
