Nah, just lit a fire under my butt to watch it! The whole roof scene was one of the most hilarious of the season.
Thanks! Hmm . . . withholding the visual to be mysterious and leave some doors for later only works if there's some question about what went on. Especially with Lana's foot rocking backwards after Kalinda took a step forward and Will's comment afterward, it was obvious they were supposed to be kissing. I would get it if the producers said this after they'd pulled back from the flirting, making it obvious that there was something there but not explicitly defining it, but this felt like A) they didn't want to show kissing for the sheer sake of it being gay and/or B) they wanted to be artsy about it and frame a weird shot (it reminded me a little of the later series of the Granada Sherlock Holmes--I've never seen as many mirrors and strange angles used for filming in my life as in a single episode of the series).
we're not trying to limit the extent of our gay PDA. Just trying to keep something for later
And by later, they mean next sweeps week. :P
Definitely hand-wavey, but for not building this up and advertising anything they failed to deliver, I still award GW the points. It was such a pleasant surprise--last time there was gay with a TV character I liked, it was "Lucky Thirteen" and there was literally more girlykissing in the commercial than the episode itself!
