Revenge 3.12 "Endurance" Review
So Emily's (Emily VanCamp) still in the hospital recovering from her wounds but she doesn't have a shortage of visitors. To keep a close eye on Emily and to ensure she doesn't blab Daniel (Josh Bowman) shot her, Victoria (Madeleine Stowe) has her removed to Grayson Manor to recuperate. Did anyone have pangs of Lydia here, how Victoria had her living there too after she fell from the balcony. Emily did manage to get a visit from Nolan (Gabriel Mann) in hospital, dressed in his candy stripers outfit, Emily adding it was just an excuse for him to get that jacket!
Niko (Stephanie Jacobsen) volunteers to come with her and look after her medically, well not volunteers, Victoria's paying a salary to her. She tells Emily she's there to protect her and shows her her tattoo, she's Takeda's daughter. Possibly she was trying to kill Emily last ep cos she thought Emily killed her father, if only she knew the real truth. Anyway she is living at Takeda's house and is suspicious his death wasn't a simple burglary. Aiden tells her he and Emily got together and she's surprised considering she and Aiden were also together when in Japan, but he left her. They kiss and he just forgot about Emily, forget about the fact Emily told him they were over and she's staying to finish the job. He was just all over Niko so quickly, which makes you ask where his feelings really lay.
Emily tells Niko she's decided to give up her revenge plans and she wonders why she went through all this just to give it up, especially after she finds out Patrick (Justin Hartley) has told Victoria about Emily's box which he sees at Nolan's house. She doesn't care anymore so Niko punches her in her wounds to make her come down to reality with a thud and some real pain! Patrick rakes up some hair brained scheme to get the box so Victoria can use it to blackmail Emily into keeping her from revealing Daniel shot her.
Emily is also visited by Jack (Nick Wechsler) and Charlotte who brings Carl to visit, it's the only way he can see her, but he has to leave when Victoria returns. Leaving behind Carl's teddy, Jack wondering why she didn't turn in Daniel. Saying she wants to leave and have a family of her own. Of course we know Teddy's got something in there to help her communicate with Nolan and she's given him the head's up on Patrick's plan. To the point where Patrick tries to get Nolan drunk so he can open the safe. Nolan drinks water and is discovered by Patrick, with Nolan telling him he didn't want to lose control in front of Patrick. Uh oh, Patrick hits him from behind and steals the box anyway. As Victoria opens it, she finds it's got photos of Daniel in there and how Emily has been stalking him for years and is nothing more than a common con artist. Thought the box had a hidden compartment for a while there, until we realize Emily got Nolan to change the things inside and that secret smirk of hers. At least she got one over on Victoria this time.
Daniel still pining over Sara (Annabelle Stephenson) stops by at the Stowaway and she tells him she was drunk and passed out in the bath, she wasn't trying to kill herself. Jack takes one look at him and can't keep from punching him! At least he knows how to defend a woman's honour and life, meaning Emily, even if it is with fists. Daniel deserved that and then some. Lots of son slapping this ep, as Victoria slaps Patrick after he tells her she'll "choose your blood over your bastard". Of course she only has Patrick left as she keeps telling him, but how long will he stick around, especially after she was adamant she didn't want him retrieving Emily's box.
Emily has her hopes dashed when Victoria tells her she spoke to her doctor and she told her Emily can't have children, another reason why she chose to end it with Aiden. She needs to get her own back now more than ever. Also Jack must back down when he tells Margaux (Karine Vanasse) it was Daniel who shot Emily cos she told him and Daniel does everything to pull the Voule issue together and get it to print. Margaux holds off publishing until after Emily gives a press conference and tells them it was Lydia who shot her. Emily tells Victoria and Daniel that she still loves him and isn't going anywhere. Funny Emily adding she and her husband are offering $10 million for Lydia's capture, who's money is that going to be then, since Victoria finds out Emily is really broke. Well not for our purposes, it was just to fool Victoria.
That didn't stop Daniel from running to Sara but he neglected to tell her he shot his wife. How far will she run when she finds out and yes she really does need to know what sort of a man Danny really is and how he covered his tracks. Conrad (Henry Czerny) was around to offer some advice to Emily. SO is Victoria being honest when she told Emily that she can't have children, or was it just another ploy. Then again it gave Emily the determination she needed to stick withe her revenge plans instead of giving up like she said she wanted to. As she said, they took her family and now the chance for her to have her own family. Think Victoria would have been better off if she didn't tell Emily this, of course thinking she'd gotten one over on her.
Still hope Sara discovers the truth soon cos I want her to leave, really bored with her. Wonder what Conrad is up to, planning on publishing some revealing moments in his memoirs to do with Victoria and Daniel. Or just some way he can have Lydia back which is unlikely.
Victoria has a new throne, but I want the old one!! ha. This one just doesn't do the business!
