Episode 406 "He who hesitates, doesn't get laid." ~Brian

Wow. That's really my only reaction after watching this episode. We finally part ways with one very special character and say hello to many new problems. We are introduced to the idea of a Rage movie (which had better work out!) and several amazing scenes. The impact that the death has on all the characters is truly something spectacular. I knew that we would eventually see the character part, but this was a very sad final episode for him, especially with Debbie's last words. It did, of course, have some hilarious moments (Lindsay's encounter with the creepy artist) and some really ironic and deeply dark moments (the ending, anyone?) Overall I loved it to death. Each episode of season four so far has been incredibly reflective of the seasons past and it has been dragging out demons from the past. I love it, I really do.

Episode #4.6

Amazing. So much emotion, it really got tears in my eyes.

Seeing Vic passing away was sad in itself. He was a great character and Jack Wetherall made a great job. But it made it even sadder that it died right when he finally was getting a life with his new partner. And the fact that the last interaction him and Debbie had was the fight made my heart ache for Debbie.

It brought a great thought that forgiving someone doesn't just help them, but also the person who is forgiving. Living with the thought that one didn't forgive someone one loved must be awful. I like how Blake explained it to Emmett and how Debbie's experience made him read Ted's letter.

I am now also very interested with what kind of health issue Brian will have.
