    Disquieting

    Wee Jock's Lament is a disquieting and surprisingly ultimately lovely tale of ghostly specters, premonitions, grief, and companionship (the latter in multiple forms). The viewer experiences each element from different perspectives throughout the episode and our constable is again challenged in his motivations and methodologies. As the title suggests, Wee Jock and lamentations go hand in hand, but the episode is ultimately spooky, sweet, and satisfying.

    Superior

    That was a superior, beautifully written and filmed episode. It lovingly knitted together the "real" world and the "other" world. Full of love and redemption. The final scene will be with me forever.
