The One Where Brenda Gets Robbed...

[taylorkingston · 7/10 · 1 June 2015]

I like this episode. It's a very serious episode. It's not very lighthearted, nor should it be.

In this episode, whilst the Peach Pit is closed, and Dylan and Brandon go outside to take the trash out, Brenda sits inside. A man comes in with a guy demanding the money from the cash register and Brenda is scared out of her mind, understandably. After the man leaves, Brenda has a little bit of a mental breakdown and has nightmares and seeks help from a psychiatrist.

Overall, I give this episode a 7 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Great.

Meeting Mr. Pony (#2.25)

This is finally a pretty good episode where we get a good story that makes sense and good acting.

It is great to introduce Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. And the story they chose for it does it in a pretty good way. The robbery scene was very well done and played by both actors. It is kind of sad that David Kriegel didn't seem to have made it big after and didn't do acting at least on screen) for about 10 years, he was definitely pretty good. Made me even scared.

And the reactions of Brenda afterwards are also very well thought through and shown to the audience. As well as her way to go to recovery.

The scene with the friends waiting for her to come back and pretending to play Scribble ("reverse Scribble") was a pretty funny one.
