I feel you. It was hard pulling my thoughts together for my own post because all I wanted to say was, "Squeeeeeeeeeeeee!! My show is back! My show is back!! Eeeeeeeeeeee!!!" but that would have gotten old for ten paragraphs.
And yet *bounces up and down* our show is back! Yay!!!! *Twirls you*
If Linderman was encouraging his charges to act on the worst of their impulses, Bennet was encouraging Matt and Ted to act on the better of their impulses; that's how I think they were contrasted, if that makes sense.
Oh, yes, I like the way you put that. And it is pretty amazing how Bennet is showing Ted that his power doesn't *have* to be destructive.
And ITA with you on how awesome Linderman is. This is easily Malcolm McDowell's best role in years and he's playing it to the stylish, fantastic hilt.
I think he may have become my favorite villain of all time. God, when he told Jessica he'd make Micah a sandwich! That was on par with him denying Nathan pot pie because he was pointing a gun at him. Oh, and speaking of Jessica, good call on her taking D.L.'s words to heart, and really starting to think about the danger she's putting Micah in while working for Linderman.
