I wondered whether it was that he'd had a brain tumour all along as that would make sense. But then read that it was related to the cocaine overdose
The friendship with the homeless guy goes from really awkward "chats" to him making her a (horrible) bowl, to suddenly she is obsessed. It just didn't seem natural to me. Not that she shouldn't be friendly with a homeless guy but that they did not seem that intimate or click. No chemistry see. You didn't think the overflowing bath scene was unrealistic? She seemed far too sensible for such nonsense.
Gere? I just don't like him in it I guess. Matter of opinion. If others like his performance that's all good. It's just a tv show so we will all have different tastes.
But I will be watching the next show. Just saying it's contrived, but that's ok. I will still enjoy it for what it is. Hope they don't keep showing the dead seal though!
Why would you need surgery after a stroke?
This removes blood clots and helps restore blood flow to the brain. Thrombectomy is only effective at treating ischaemic strokes caused by a blood clot in a large artery in the brain. It's most effective when started as soon as possible after a stroke.
I didn't see the wife obsessed at all . She went to his place if that's what you mean to find out if he was the one who had spoken to someone about the friendship.
As for clicking . I think her face showed that she liked him very much .
No I didn't see what you imagined about the bath scene.
How you can form an opinion after one episode that you didn't like RG in it , I don't know .
Maybe he's lost weight , the thin face ? The face always shows it . Who cares ?
