Previews:
John/Miles
Cole/Starr
Antonio/Jess
Adriana/Rex
I have been wanting Adriana and Dorian to have a scene together. But you know what? There is just no single ounce of warmth there. I didn't need it throughout the scenes but the coldness and distance bothered me. And even if one is to maintain the distance, at least allow for the acknowledgement that things aren't right between mother/daughter. I know only too well about stalkerilla1.gif . Facing death should cause one to rethink what's important. It should have had some impact on this mother/daughter relationship. Instead, Adriana is singularly focused on Rex. Frankly, I can't even remember if Dorian and Adriana hugged.
I wasn't that interested in too much else in today's episode because it is a rehash of what's been going on for several episodes, it seems. On a more positive note, I am liking the Shaun character a little more. Vincent and Layla bore me. I want to like them but there is something lacking that I can't put my finger on.
If the vets are going to play support to the younger characters it would be nice if the younger characters had an interest in them, too. Just a thought.
