Episode Notes: Free Willie

[sara-merry99.livejournal.com]

This episode is a *great* follow-on to the absolutely exquisite pilot. This episode has several scenes that absolutely make me laugh out loud. And we get introduced to Elaine Besbris, Huey and Gardino, Beau Starr as Welsh. All so awesome!

I am definitely starting to fall in love with Ray Vecchio; I love the way he talks. I love that he's so accepting of Fraser, but also still trying to hold onto himself and his sense of the world.

I know enough of this show to know that I'm going to be madly in love with both Rays. And I'm looking forward when the right time for the discussion of relationship arcs comes. (I've got a rabid plot bunny on this subject gnawing at my ankles and I just don't know the show well enough yet to do anything but kick it away.)

I can totally see why our fannish fore-mothers slashed Fraser and Vecchio. There's *definitely* a connection there. (The time for discussing the arcs of this relationship, and Kowalski's, with Fraser is, alas, not yet, but it's coming eventually.)
