This episode is one of my favourite of the first season. It displays
human emotion very well and the performances of the actors back the script up very well. I do have to admit that I wasn't expecting the
kiss between the two Captain Jack Harknesses, but this moment actually made the episode more powerful for me. The kiss was so passionate and lovely, that it made me understand the emotions of the characters in this episode even more. The storyline gave a good depiction of regret, love and sorrow without being overbearing or too much for the viewer. It also showed the prejudice and prosecution that the Japanese suffered at this time. The set and costume design for this episode were also great.
