ight in Question

Comments

I have only been watching Forever Knight for the third season and the very end of the second. I think this is the best episode of all that I have seen. I wish the writers had made a two hour episode out of this somehow. I think that it was a very good idea, it just needed more time to really be excellent.

I agree that this is one of the best episodes of the show -- this and "Sons of Belial" were excellent examples of the enormous talent of the cast and writers for this show.

I loved this episode--especially in terms of Nick and Nat! Nick's dream was great. And I loved her confrontation with LaCroix, although I wish there could have been more. Wow, too bad Janette is gone; imagine adding her into that mix!

All I could say while watching this episode was "oh my god". This definitely should of been a two-parter. I would have really loved seeing a lot more of Natalie and Nick happy then the five minutes that we got to see. The kiss was the best part of the entire episode. Wow!!!! (even though the editor cut half of it out of the scene) One last comment is that Natalie looked so sad and dissapointed during the last scene that it made me cry.

Wow! Definitely a great episode. It's my favourite. I love the scene where Nick tumbles into his apartment and his face is burnt. It's just so dramatic when he screams at Natalie "Did you know this would happen?". At first I thought they did sleep together because Natalie said "After last night I thought it was possible". But I don't think so. First they kiss, cut to commercial. When they come back Nick has his dream, wakes up and stands over Natalie sleeping on the couch. So all they did was kiss. That whole sequence was very effective. The dream with LaCroix behind but standing between Nick and Nat reminds me of the cover of a gothic romance novel. It also represents the fact that he stands between their relationship both literally and figuratively.

I love the tension between Natalie and LaCroix. That tension can also be found in "Fever". Anyway, Natalie seems almost repulsed by Nick drinking the blood. However, near the end of the season, she seems to become more intrigued by his vampire side; e.g. "Francesca". Certainly unlike her reaction to it in "Games Vampires Play" when she calls it the vampire game "virtual killing".

Am I the only one who saw strong parallels between Natalie and LaCroix's description of Nick's "condition" and homosexuality? Watch the episode again, put yourself in Nick's shoes, and ask yourself, wouldn't you wonder if they weren't trying to tell you that you're gay? That LaCroix is a current or perhaps past lover and that Natalie is trying to "convert" you?

Didn't you notice? Nick was eating food in the hospital after he regained consciousness, quite impossible for a vampire. Just thought I'd key you in..

Good episode! I loved how Geraint was able to pull off the whole bit of his amnesia. When LaCroix and Natalie were arguing, I couldn't help but laugh at the expressions on Nick's face. All three of them should have won a Gemini Award for their great acting. Bravo! Hopefully there will be a fourth season so we can see their talent even more.

This was truly the best episode by far! All of these emotions were pulled together in one big sphere. Nick showed confusion, pain, torture, passion, and more due to his amnesia. Poor Natalie finally getting the chance to help Nick and also to be able to show her love for him does so and shows her passionate side, and her pain when she loses him again to what he really is -- a vampire. As for LaCroix, I think he hated the idea of losing his one dear friend and adversary to the human side and to Natalie. He showed jealousy, rage, and no heart for either Nick or Natalie's well being. Poor Nick and Natalie, for at least one night they got to ignite their true passions for each other and that was the best scene!

I loved this episode! It played to what Natalie suggested to Nick at the end of "Hearts of Darkness" in the closing scene when Nat was explaining to Nick that in Jacqueline's fragmented personality, the part that believed she was human lived as a human (eating, walking in the sunshine etc.) In essence the power of the mind over the body. I believe Nat used the unique opportunity in "Night in Question" to test that option, as Nick believed he was human. I think that when Nat said, "We were so close!" she knew that their chance to have a true intimate relationship was over. To be that close and if they truly consumated their relationship that one night then such a realization can only be that much more painful to her. That is also what I think LaCroix was hoping for as well, that they would both realize the futility of their relationship and Nick's search for humanity. They just could not pretend the needs of the vampire would not somehow emerge at some point and demand to be sated. I was surpised by Nick's control the few times the vampire emerged. In reference to the comment Nat made, "You don't want to be a vampire" , she was reminding Nick of his desire to regain his humanity. I think it unnerved her a little by his zeal as he gulped down the bottled human blood.

All theses awakening sensations could very easily draw him back to the community and truly embrace his vampiric nature. I thought it really sad how Nick said to Nat "Is it what I am that makes you so sad?" And the look on Nat's face when she said "It's what's kept us apart?" (sniff) That was a heartbreaker.
