Leggo 2 more to go!
She never really had to leave Hannibal. I felt she was written out cuz they were done with the character for the time being. Her character was always just guest starring never a regular.
Got to get that money. That X-files cash must be running lowaye the minute I turned off that pilot I knew that show would get canned and was wondering why Scully thought that was a good show to leave Hannibal for.
Those other scenes of the preview don't invoke much more hope.
Eh, he can still be touched as we've seen several times. There's a difference between being a mastermind and a super mastermind that can't be touched. The way Scully talking you'd think Hannibal didn't come close to getting got 4-6 times these two seasons. After a while it just becomes plot armor to explain why he aint dead yet. Every now and then like this ep I just think to myself why won't someone just roll up on Hannibal and put two in his head real simple like? That's what I'm focused on when I talk about how she exaggerates but that's clearly cuz of her fear plus it's not hard to be a mastermind when everybody you've dealt with is dumber than you given you can spot and exploit their weaknesses so easily. Pretty clear at the least Hannibal is a better psychiatrist than these buffoons and just cuz you're a psychopath doesn't make you also a genius (despite those two usually coming hand in hand on tv).
Still would leave a lot of unsolved cases and he gets the last laugh.
She never really said touched. She was talking about catching him but to me she hyped up his manipulating skills as if everything is going according to his plans and we know they're not.Your only solution is to shoot him in the head.
You changed the definition of being "touched" to make your point... She was referring to him being caught not murdered.
Nah he did this to himself. The only reason he's around the FBI is cuz he's infatuated with Will. That's the only reason he's still here. Then he got pulled in and became some sort of friend to Jack. When asked to be Will's psychiatrist he could've said no and be out but once he learned more about him he couldn't himself.
While famous in the community Will wasn't known as the FBI consultant that get in to a psychopaths head. Plus you got nothing saying he knew who Will was before he started working with Jack. His work with Jack had the stipulation he be monitored and have a a specialist oversee his wellbeing as he did this work. So no there's nothing basing the idea that Hannibal could've just up and made Will his patient on his own. There was no reason for Will to even seek a psychiatrist if he wasn't working with Jack in the first place. Besides that are you telling me it's just a coincidence that Hannibal decides to start messing with the FBI and he just happens to start liking Will as things go on?
HOLY %&$#, what an episode. Continues to baffle me how they get all this past the censors. That face-scene. :x
But how the hell is Hannibal so good with that CQC?!
Quite a brilliant move though to have Margo be the one to take care of him from now on...
Anyway, I agree that Scully's fear of him is more of the reason why she thinks he's still in control. I don't think he intentionally gets himself in all those situations just for the challenge or whatnot. And I do agree that it's down to his interest in Will... his weakness.
It'll be interesting to see what role Alana plays in all of this next week. Will she be the one that takes down Hannibal?
Gotta go find some debriefs now...
And how great does Scully still look?
@ Hannibal being able to smell Freddie on Will...
