    Graham McTavish owns this episode

    There are so many fantastic performances in this episode, but the ultimate is Graham McTavish. In the scene with Colum and Dougal, McTavish demonstrates perhaps the best acting of the entire series. Incredibly moving.

    Alternate Title

    'A Tale of Two Narcissists'. Gritty and honest. A good study and view into the ill-reasoned viewpoint of the victimized NPD. The Intractable predicament of the narcissist and most irresistibly infuriating response of the observer is evident here, when looking at a person entrapped by this disorder.
