I did like that Morgana changed her mind at the last minute but yeah, Merlin seems to kill people for no reason. Just knock the guards unconscious and leave it at that.

Finally have a chance ro watch this ep and I’m gonna write my comments down while watching. That way I won’t forget anything.
Oh, I know this bad guy from somewhere, just can’t place him…
Why doesn’t Gwen live at the castle? You would think that as Morgana’s maid, she’d have to be on hand at all times. Uhm, how did Morgana know that Gwen was at Merlin’s when she was looking for her in the village 5 seconds earlier? Nooo, giving Tom a key is not good at all. Seriously, what is she thinking?
Did they actually kill Tom? I didn’t think they would do that. But that’s on Morgana. I love Arthur apologizing to Gwen. Morgana is getting on my nerves… The dragon is also getting on my nerves. What is that awful cape that Uther is wearing? Is that the scepter that that evil fairy was using a few eps ago?
For an episode about the king, there wasn’t nearly enough Uther in this. I loved all of Gwen’s scenes, she portraided her grief with dignity. She is amazing. Didn’t like Morgana in this. Not a lot of Arthur either. It was ok but nowhere near my favourite episode.
Wasn’t Tauren is some kind of cop show? This is going to drive me nuts..
