Long time since I've cried

First thought is 'This isn't the way of narrative' but that's just because most of us grew up with Hollywood films, we always know the plot in 'typical' drama. When something (genous) like this is caught in the story there is no way to defend the feelings that moves you.

I don't want to give away what happens though if you read this, you've probably seen the episode. So I might as well recommend this series. See it back to back. Writing this with the experience 'It's only a movie' or 'I don't get upset, I've seen 'em all'

I cried when I saw this episode which is something I don't usually do. It has to count for something. Moving. The purest form of sorrow.
