I immediately thought of the JFK asassination when I saw the open warehouse window.

I really liked that episode with the 3D effects. and this is why doctor Ogden is so important to Murdoch and solving the case. Bet she is gonna get fed up dealing with sexual matters in her new practice. At least with Murdoch, she deals with solving murders and does not only work at the morgue. May be , she will come back and become a detective too like Murdoch suggested her in one episode. Anyway, the last scene was heartwrenching for both of them anyway. I bet she wanted to kiss him but obviously coulnt now because she is married and faithful. It was a good episode, can't wait for episode 7 now when she returns.

I really liked seeing Julia and William working together again as a team. However, at the end of the episode when Julia said goodbye to William and told him she was starting her own practice, something just didn't feel right to me. It was like she might have been influenced my Darcy to start her own practice and no longer work with William. Something just doesn't feel right about the whole thing. It was like she was hiding something from him, like the real reason she was leaving. My instincts are telling me that there's more to this than meets the eye. I don't know how else to explain it except that somethings really wrong with Julia. Its the same feeling that I have about Darcy.
It was also interesting how William kept testing Dr.Grace as if he didn't trust her or something. I get the impression that he doesn't trust her just yet but I think he will learn to trust her as time goes by.

So I recently re-watched this episode and I'm a bit confused about something. William calls Julia Doctor Ogden twice in one scene! Did she not change her last name? Wasn't that sort of thing kind of mandatory back then? Or is this some sort of professional thing where at work she's still Doctor Ogden but at home she's Mrs. Garland? I'm thinking it has to be this last option cuz there's no way they'd make such a big mistake!

To scrubby21; Well well well, look who is back into the board If you watch again "Stroll on the wild side (part 1)" when they have all the board members of the hospital at Darcy & Julia's home, I think someone talk to Julia and refers to her as "Dr. Garland" and she replies "it is still Dr.Ogden" or something close to it, it might be for a professional reason but when I saw the first episodes with Julia and people were referring to her as Dr.Ogden i found it odd but when she said that herself in episode 7 I thought it was very telling. I might have confirmation of that if W/J get married and she decided to be called "Dr.Murdoch" then I will have my answer ;D

Well, I haven't had any new episodes to dissect for quite awhile so that is my explanation for my long absence. Anyways, I don't know how I never noticed that everyone was referring to her as Dr. Ogden still and that she actually didn't change her last name! I don't really get how she managed this since like I said before, I thought it was mandatory to change your last name back then. But then again, I don't really know what the customs were back then and Julia has never been a typical case anyways, so it of course could be possible that she never changed it. (How dumb does Darcy have to be?) And yes, I imagine that she refers to herself as Mrs. Murdoch all the time in her journal, even way back when she first met him.

To scrubby21; "Her journal" that's funny (but i am not surprised as it is coming from you) I would like to amend something in my previous post, I put "if" W/J get married and I should have put "when", call me romantic but I know that it will happen, hopefully sooner than later ;D

Women who had professions could keep their names. For one thing their name would have been on all their stuff. There were just so few women who had professions, esp. after they married that very few women kept their maiden names. But I know there are examples of famous, trailblazing women who did not take their husband's name after they married.

After William presumably didn't stop Julia's wedding because he no longer felt the same way about her, and after he mysteriously left for a number of months, Julia can't work with William on one case without feeling the old bond reforming and worrying about what that's going to do to her (passionless) marriage.
William's interactions with Julia are very interesting in this episode. He tries to be restrained, realizing that she's married, but he's delights in seeing her and working with her. She's still an integral part of his case-solving process. While Julia's departure is devastating, in a way I wonder if it gives William some hope: she wouldn't be leaving if she didn't still have feelings for him. I think that's why he is thanking Julia for her honesty.
I wonder at what point did William have a chance to explain about Constance Gardner? Would he explain before Julia got divorced? That would undermine her whole decision to get married...but now it's too late. Marriage is a sacred institution, and William shouldn't be deliberately trying to sabotage it.

I don't think he would have told her until after she'd already made the decision to get divorced. I think sometime after TCM she had to have asked him why he didn't stop the marriage, and he did.

This was a tear-jerker for me. The ending broke the flood gates. I instantly forgot everything else that went on in the episode. I really cried the first time I saw this but I am glad I can watch it now without the tears. I felt sorry for W/J here and to see William standing there alone afterwards looking so dejected. Just a moment before, he was upbeat and looking forward to going somewhere.

He'd contented himself with just being able to work with and see her regularly, but she's left him again, and she's let him know that perhaps her marriage isn't as loving as she would have hoped. Once again, William is alone, but it's tolerable for me, because this is rock bottom-from here, he starts climbing back up.

As long as you keep waking up everyday, you have to keep living. Even I had to compartmentalize (big word) and try to move on though it took me quite a while to get over this.

I may have found a blooper. The Toronto Archives tweeted a picture today of the old City Hall, circa 1900, before the clock was installed, here: ow.ly/i/8LKuW . This episode takes place in 1899 and the shots were fired to coincide with and be masked by the City Hall clock striking noon......
