Not going into depth right now because I'm tired and want to go to bed, but just a few thoughts.
1. They packed a hell of a lot into this episode. If they'd spread some of that out just a little through the preceeding few weeks, I might have been a bit more excited about some of them! I think there was actually a little too much death and destruction for me in this one.
2. I have a real thing about the idea of being buried alive. I am NOT going to be able to stop thinking about Jack lying underneath Cardiff for nearly 2,000 years any time soon.
3. Jack was awfully sane after that, don't you think?
4. I loved the twist that Captain John actually wasn't Jack's annoyingly repetitive version of the Master. Because that would have been seriously pathetic and from the start of the episode that really looked like where they were going. I'm very, very glad they didn't.
5. On the other hand, we did get the repetition of 'I forgive you'. I'm not sure I can really believe that anyone could be that good that they'd forgive someone that.
6. Oh, and we got a repetition of Jack in chains. Not really complaining about that one (*g*), though I couldn't help thinking he should have been panting a lot more in that position?
7. Tosh and Owen? Wow, they really are clearing the decks, aren't they? That was rather sweet, though I felt it did go on a bit.
8. I loved Rhys. And Andy.
Um, that's all I can think of right now.

But yeah. I don't think Kurt actually met Methos, did he? Will have to when he does eventually return. :-)
