The Returned, “Julie,” was directed by Charles Martin with the teleplay by Raelle Tucker. Martin’s other credits include Skins, Wallander, and Being Human. Given the title of the episode, I was expecting to learn a lot more about Julie (Sandrine Holt), but the episode follows Simon (Mat Vairo) and Camille (India Ennenga) too.
Tommy (Kevin Alejandro) has a big secret of his owm. Rowan (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) receives two more visits from Simon. Simon also meets Peter (Jeremy Sisto). Peter has some pretty interesting things to say and reveals he may know more about what is going on.
Camille and Lena (Sophie Lowe) both continue to struggle with Camille’s return. Jack (Mark Pellegrino) suggests that they should move in order to give Camille a chance at a new life. Jack and Claire (Tandi Wright) grow closer. Lena develops a mysterious cut on her back. Camille goes on two outings.
“Why are you burying my wolf?”
“I wanted to be a teacher when I was a kid.”
“I want you gone.”
“I was kind of a screw up, wasn’t I?”
“A long time ago, I knew someone like you.”
This is another well acted episode with lots of creepy thrown in. Don’t forget to tune in to watch Monday night on A&E at 10/9c.
BY the sound of it, looks like a promising episode. Hopefully, ratings stay steady this week. We don't want this to be another Those Who Kill-scenario.
ReplyDeleteThings start to come together in a really interesting way in this episode....
ReplyDeleteIf Simon doesnt talk and makes her believe he is a vision, im done. xD. That gets on my nerves. Talk damed! let her know you are real!
ReplyDeleteWell even though I wouldn't want it to drag on all season, there is something really beautiful about Simon not verbally confronting her. He doesn't want to hurt her further/completely shatter her reality, but by listening to her, he can begin to understand what happened to both her and himself at the same time. IMO that takes a lot to be able to just listen to someone else, something that almost all the other characters seem to lack. The rest of them are way more active. And it makes Simon feel like a humble ghost giving him a uniqueness. I'm sure it won't be long where she begins to realize he is actually there.
ReplyDeleteis both good and bad, he doesnt want to hurt her? by telling her he is back but she will feel the same way if she realizes by someone else that people are returning and she does see him in reality. It's teh great thing about this show. To see how people react to that. So far everyone has had a diferent reaction.
