Current Talk '06 I / Re: Episode 494
« on: May 17, 2006, 11:49:50 PM »
To be completely honest, I also found it a bit uncomfortable to watch at first. Now, you know I adore Julia regardless (I tend to think of her character as a divine work in progress throughout the series), but ironically enough this is the very scene that a few acquaintences have pointed out as being a reason they can't stand/hate Julia. Who wrote her dialogue in this episode?
However, since I have a tendency to look at things from a...bent perspective, I have rationalized/joked that this scene was a result of either: 1. Barnabas was in an equally snappy mood that morning and left her to clean up the ancient kitchen, run tests, take care of Adam, and handle a still recovering Willie at the same time (I know that would piss me off - lol,) 2. It was a bad time of month, and Barnabas, after he'd accidentally thrown out a box of...personal items she'd been sorting through, consumed the last cup of coffee and chocolate bar in the house, 3. The results of her latest therapeutic salon visit were ruined when Barnabas accidentally spilled something acrid on a divine number she'd just purchased, leaving her to drag out that unflattering mottled suit. The only highlights being the orange shell and loud jewelry accenting her still new-ish 'do...
And I hate to say it, but [spoiler]I kinda chuckle when (after Willie had come back from giving Maggie Josette's earrings,) Willie says something to the effect of (I'm paraphrasing here) "I didn't go nowhere." Julia snaps back "nowhere must be a very muddy place..." pointing out the muddy shoes he'd just dragged through the house. I don't think anyone but Grayson could pull off that scene...[/spoiler]
Then again, maybe the stress of the situation just made the divine Doctor go back into sly minx mode for a moment... yeah, that's the ticket.
