1st Degree - Persuasion.
2nd Degree - Intimidation.
3rd Degree - Pain.
Those are the three traditional "Degrees".
Who liked seeing ol' Brackenreid dishing out the Third Degree?
*Puts up hand*

I just enjoyed the scene. xD That's Brax for you, and plus, I really didn't mind seeing that guy get beat up. He ticked me off. |

I'm so glad Murdoch Mysteries is back! Last night's episode was fantastic. A perfect balance of mystery and the character's personal lives. The Jilliam fire is going strong and I can't believe they kissed 3 times! Yay! Haha. As for the developing Emily/Leslie thing, I'm not really liking that. I've always liked Emily, and I don't really want her running off with some Garland fellow...they're trouble, they are. Next thing you know, Leslie will be dead and Emily will be framed. And I feel so bad for George! My heart broke in the final scene. Anyways, great episode! Can't wait for next Monday!  But in the mean time, will go edit the wiki! I agree. I do not like this Leslie Garland subplot at all. No matter how you feel about Emily, it is just too contrived. |

I am wondering what the writers have up their sleeves as far as Gillies. There still is no body, therefore no certainty. Finally Julia and William get an uninterrupted kiss!! Looks like the old Brackenreid is back, with his persuasive fists. I found that a little disturbing. I felt very sad for George in the end!! He is pretty fond of Emily, but he doesn't feel worthy of her ( a class thing). Yeah it was disturbing. I'm wondering if he's suffering from alcohol withdrawal. The temperance league got a mention, he got a headache from ragtime almost immediately, went overboard in the interrogation room and we never actually saw him drink anything this ep! I'm not so sure that's the reason. Emily is from the working class too, she just attracts rich individuals. I think George just generally doubts himself around women, like how Murdoch was around Julia for the longest time. And it's no wonder! Emily isn't exactly stepping up to the plate! She's already got one foot out the door and has for awhile! George should just drop her and find Tess again! About Emily: In an earlier episode, we found out she used to belong to a country club and play croquet. I thought that meant she was from the Upper Class of Toronto. When she went back to play, former friends were snubbing her because she broke up her engagement to one of their own, and she had George, a lowly cop, with her. |

Yeah she belonged to the club cuz her ex-fiance belonged to the club. They were snubbing her later cuz she isn't one of them not cuz she broke off the engagement. Having George around didn't help matters though. As to WHY she was allowed to play if she isn't one of them, I don't know...I guess her old ties were still adequate. Or perhaps the competition was open to all? I believe it was the S5 episode in which her crazy ex comes back that it's revealed that she is of the working class. He says something about elevating her above her station. Certainly in the beginning George was hesitant to approach her cuz he thought she was above him but I'd imagine by now that he knows she is of the same class as him. |

When I was watching the show last night, I was thinking "ahhh Barbarama will be SO happy now!" I know I am! I just love Julia and William when things are going great for them. But the "glass half empty side of me" keeps thinking...Julia and William are smiling and are so happy just being in love......that can't be good. Well you do know me very well indeed; however in my case I prefer feeling the contentment right now and going 1 episode at the time rather than worrying about what might or might not happen |

People reckoned that criminals and scum deserved to be beaten to a pulp if they held out on honest officers of the law. It was no more than they deserved. It was the attitude of the time. And I agree. That O'Shea fellow jangled me. I would've used Bracky's walking stick on him too. But in a much different area of his body. He'll be imbibing from that hip-flask through his nose by the time I'd be done with him. It's been many episodes since Brackenreid has given us a good old fashioned beat-down. I can only remember three, maybe four in seven seasons, so this is long overdue, in my opinion. Brackenreid does what we all wish we could do, to the scum that the good boys at Station House 4 have to handle every day. |

Julia and William being happy and passionate again is great. Julia's modern attitude always amuses me. She's a bit naughty.
I like how Murdoch, George, and Julia aren't racist. Even Brackenreid is quite open-minded.
I don't trust Leslie. Though I have to admit Emily has chemistry with him. And she actually looks like she's attracted to and interested in him. Sadly the same can't be said for George. Their dancing was possibly the most awkward thing ever. He's a lovely guy though and he looked very cute with the baby. Aww his sad face at the end, go and find another girl, George. I'm convinced Leslie is going to try and find a way to breakup W/J. I'm betting he won't want them marrying because he's secretly angry with them over Darcy.
As for Brackenreid, he's beat up suspects before. So I'm not shocked anymore. I don't agree with his actions but it was very common up until even the 1970's/80's. It still occasionally happens these days. Just because someone is a police officer it doesn't mean they don't do illegal or immoral things.

This episode was very interesting. The story took place to the rhythm of the music and I couldn't help but stomp.
- William and Julia were happy. I'm not as optimistic as they are -I think GILLIES is still alive- but CARPE DIEM!
- It seemed that Inspector BRACKENREID enjoyed using questionable methods. I laughed when MURDOCH asked him to come with him to the docks and when he assured MURDOCH -taking off his leather glove- that Mr O'SHEA told him the truth. He was so proud of himself.
- The voices of the singers are very pleasant to hear. They are also good musicians. Bravo!
- Lesley GARLAND tried to seduce Dr GRACE and she abandoned George at the end of the episode... Poor George! It was sad. I loved the character of George but I would prefer to see him with an other woman because I think there is no chimestry between the two characters. And I must admit that Lesley GARLAND used a technic of seduction which might work... the problem is that he is maybe not a gentleman. To be continued.

Does anyone know what the music used when the girl was dancing in white (and "showing her legs")- it sounded familiar, but I don't know if it was composed for this ep or a traditional tune and it's driving me wild!

This might be a good thing to ask in Twitter @cbcmurdoch. Kyle Merkley was the music supervisor for that episode. |

According to "Making Murdoch" video (on CBC website) this music is " Serpentine Dance" composed by Angelo Oddi for Shaftesbury... So not a traditionnal tune ...Hope it can help.... |

Soooo... Just rewatched this, and anyone else notice the long second glance William gives Emily and Leslie Garland as he's leaving the club? She thinks he's left, but as she turns her attentions to Leslie, there's a parting shot of William looking rather disapprovingly at the two of them.
Next time he sees her, he's quite short with her. He's definitely looking out for his bro-not as openly as George does, but still a wingman.

I did notice William's look towards Emily and LG, he doesn't miss much! |
