I LOVE IT when I'm right!!! Terrific episode. I really liked how the various murders and attacks were tied together, with a few surprises...well done Brax. Slorach, as suggested, has far more depth and honour than his demeanor suggests. Good job. Julia's tactics behind the scenes with the crown prosecutor are to be applauded. Nice to see that "piss ant" get his just desserts. I'm afraid though that he'll now become a much more dangerous enemy. I vote that Fallenbelle gets to have first comment on the last 3 minutes. Woo hoooo  Awww, I'm touched. But it's going to be a few more hours for me at least. Is it something to do with the tie?  My only comment is that I think William is uber-hot but otherwise my lips are sealed. I am perfectly content to wait for you and snacky to lose your minds  . |

All I'll say is I loved this ep, all my predictions were correct and yes lovemondays, Willliam is uber-hot, showing a side we haven't seen before. |

I wasn't sure about this darker MM in theory but I absolutely loved they way they handled it here. |

Clara Brett Martin is a historical figure of the time. She was born to wealthy Anglican-Irish parents and graduated with a B.A. from Trinity College (now part of the University of Toronto) in mathematics at the age of 16. She petitioned the Law Society of Upper Canada for admission but was rejected due to an interpretation of the statute upholding the status of men as the only ones permitted to practice law. A year later, in 1892, the word "person" was broadened to include women. Interestingly, this law was supported by the Premier of Ontario. I just love how the writers of MM are able to weave in actual historical figures and content into the script. I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot more of her in a professional context. The fab four are gonna roar.  |

I was wrong about the exact nature of the operation. Now that I think about it, my original notion didn't make any sense considering the state they kept the women in. Anyway, I was much much more pleased with this weeks episode than last weeks. Though I'm still laughing over where in the hell William came from at the end?  |

Perhaps the Magic Homburg has developed a new power? Apparition?? |

I have been contemplating the parallels drawn between the lack of power women have in general society vs the all powerful woman running the docks on the dark side. |

I was somewhat stunned at his sudden presence. Loved the way he came to Julia's aid though, I think Julia did too...!  |

But George has that super power too. (remember Hockey Night in Canada?) It seems like Murdoch was stalking Leslie, and then managed to hide in the office before Leslie came.  Also, did they say WHERE the women came from? Europe somewhere, but where exactly? Some middle eastern country judging by the accent. |

But seriously, that's a good point. Even though the dockworkers are rapscallions in most respects, they seem to view women more as equals (well not the O'Sheas) and allow them greater freedom and power. I suppose it's because they live by the law of the jungle. |

I can't wait to watch that scene again, even if it was pretty random. |

I always thought my maiden name was English until some minor genealogical research turned up that it was in fact an anglicization of the German Berg. |

If we can decipher what he called it, we should have our country of origin. |
