Episode 410 "I wanna be hard, mom. You have no idea how much I want to be hard." ~Brian

This was an interesting episode. Not the best of season four or anything, but I really liked it A LOT. It had some extremely powerful sequences and solid acting all around, not to mention the closing (and opening) of a couple story arcs and even more amazing dialogue to boot. The scene with Sharon Gless and Gale Harold where he tells her that he had cancer was really well done and simply spectacular, and of course there's the scene between Brian and his mother. The ending was sensational (as always) between Ben and Michael, and the scene with Justin and Michael at the Chinese place was hilarious. I can't wait to see what's going on with Lindsay and that artist, and Emmett and the football player make for a really interesting watch!

I like the interesting idea they have of having a football player who is straight (or at least as he claims to be) having sex with Emmett and Lindsay having sex with a man. It is probably a way to look at a human sexuality which shows that many people aren't 100% gay or straight even if they don't identify themselves as bisexuals. I am very interested to see what will happen here.

I loved the scene in the Chinese store when Justin and Michael are on a mission to get something for Brian to get hard again. Very funny! Also great were the scenes with Debbie. When she finds out that Brian has cancer and when she meets his mother in the church. Brian's mother was once again a disappointment as a human being. But I am glad they did keep her this way, would be a mistake to change her now. And it also got us a great scene where Brian tells her off.

The story of Ben was very interesting too. Unbelievable what the ex student wanted from him! At least it inspired Ben to a good story.
