At their meeting at the church Gavin visits the cemetery to tell Sasha how he buried his daughter and that he was awake when the call came. She's sorry she did that to them but through all this facade you can tell how both of them were playing a cat and mouse game, or more like devil and devil's daughter game. It's like Gavin saw through everything Sasha was planning and was one step ahead of her. Father Douglas tells Henry he sees good in him and he needs to confess and will be granted absolution before Gavin takes Henry away. Father nods to Sasha and agrees to got through with the plan. She accompanies Olivia (Vanessa Williams) to an auction where she bids on a painting for Gavin and Father Douglas bids on the dagger used to kill Julius Caesar that's why it was covered in a king's blood. But it wasn't enough to do the dirty deed since Gavin can't be dealt with so easily.
Henry also lies to Jane (Rachael Taylor) and tells her he didn't leak news of Sullivan's affair to the press and Gavin had nothing to do with it either. She wants him to stay as he is, doubt that'll happen but yeah sure enough Henry will stay the boring, old wimp he always was. Jane talks with Nona (Samantha Logan) and tells her what she found, the line she found about the "shining light in a city of shadows" which is written all over Kramer's journal. Gavin introduces Jane to Phillip Corey (Richard Short) who was Harlan Moore from last ep and tells her he's moving into 2D (Maris's apartment) so she can discuss the renovations with him. Corey decides he'll do his own renovating. Jane later finds a photo of Corey and realizes it's really Harlan. Breaking into his place, he wakes from under a sheet and she wants to know why there's a padlock on the door. He doesn't tell her way why but tells her that line is a decipher and is all over his journal. Later we find he's sacrificed the woman he was with and uses her blood to create his own dragon mosaic in the room. Saying if you want something done you have to do it yourself.
Henry admits to Jane he lied and she's angry since Gavin tells him to come clean. She doesn't want him getting into dirty politics, but that's how things are done here. He didn't tell Sullivan to have an affair with his intern. Nona also says she should forgive him cos all he did was tell a lie. She turns up to the sermon, sorry Henry's speech and all's well with them. Henry preaches about forgiveness. He proposes to her. A bit eager when he didn't want to a few weeks back, what's he doing, staking his claim.
Elsewhere Brian (Robert Buckley) and Louise (Mercedes Masohn) are having problems yet again and he thinks her turning up drunk was cos she couldn't be happy for him and his show. She admits to taking one aspirin. At a fashion shoot, Alexis (Helena Mattsson) wants to know why she cant be happy for Brian and she's read his play and thinks it's good. His play is about Brian and Alexis, no surprises there. Alexis once again loses it with Louise saying it's all about her. Then she turns up at the theatre during rehearsals and says she's going to take up dance again cos he inspired her. She kisses him and Louise shows up as we knew she would. Louise flushes the pills from the cabinet but more turn up. All I can say is hope Alexis gets what's coming to her after all she's the one who made the deal and needs to suffer for it. Louise shows up at Corey's when he invites her for a drink earlier on.
Gavin waits for Father Douglas in the graveyard and tells him to get on with it but he stops him using the dagger by holding it in his hand. Sasha takes Olivia down to the basement to do away with her and hopes Gavin will be taken care of by now. Olivia loves him and doesn't think anything will happen to him, cos if anyone tries to hut him they'll have her to deal with, which is exactly what she does here. She tries to kill Olivia but Gavin stops her. She's sorry but he opens up the dragon mosaic again using his key from his pocketwatch and Sasha is told she'll end up somewhere better. She can't stay here and walks down the spiral staircase. Well Jane ended up in the hospital but doubt the same 'courtesy' will be shown to Sasha. She's probably sacrificed or doomed to roam the Drake or Times Square without really getting anywhere. then again maybe not. Wonder what would have happened if Sasha had refused to go quietly?
As there are only two episodes left, this did seem a little rushed and a bit no-sensical in places. Sasha was in hiding all these years and shows up to kill her parents but gets dealt with herself, so much for Olivia wanting her daughter back when really all she loves is Gavin. Seems Sasha's only motivation for wanting them dead is that they gave her things they took from innocent people. Gavin telling her they weren't innocent, yeah he can judge.
Coincidentally this review turns out to be my blog post number 666!
