Title: Drs. Hoffman and Lang
Post by: Josette on May 02, 2002, 10:02:05 AM
I always love their first encounter.  He clearly knows her, so knows that she is a doctor.  She so authoritatively tries to move Barnabas, but he won't allow it.  Speaking as one doctor to another, she can't be too vague.  He asks her quite specifically about Barnabas' condition and her treatments, and there isn't too much she can say.  He reveals quite specific knowledge of it, yet she obviously can't confirm it.  She has to try to protect Barnabas and pretend not to understand what he is saying.  Yet, she says enough to reveal it to him (although he clearly seems to know without that).  Their sparring is a lot of fun.

Yes it is fun. but it is clear to me who is holding the cards right now... and that is of course Dr. Lang!

Yes, that may be true, but unlike many other clueless DS characters, Dr. Lang catches on pretty quickly!   :D

The quickness is going to fade pretty soon--Lang's fine understanding what Barnabas is, but he soon scoffs when Barnabas reveals who is responsible and tells Lang to be careful.

That is one reason I am enjoying these eps immensely - I don't recall ever having seeing Dr. Lang when I first watched DS.  So, all I have to go by is that one scene.

I do seem to recall that Dr. Lang meets his demise eventually, doesn't he?    

Love this show!

P.S.  Yay!!  I finally made Junior member!  [spin]  [beer]  [hello]
