Loved how Natalie was praying for Jared to come back. Denial and
bargaining is a natural part of the grieving process in and of itself,
but given how Natalie has had two former lovers "die" and then later
return, her scene hit all the right notes.

And of course Mitch realizes all that as well so he'll take advantage of
that to torture her in the worst way.

But in the end-- seriously, did you not find it to be sooooooo over-
the-top *predictable*, though?
As it was happening.. i was like "oh- i know where this is going..oooh
no! really? ..oh please don't make it that easy.. oh well. oh they
went there,, Really?? I mean--- REALLY??"

(pulls at me short monkey hairs)

Oh yeah, the very second i saw the coffin moving, i knew it was going to
be Mitch popping out of it (and i've been avoiding spoilers) - but just
because it was so true to the characters; that Mitch's flair for
over-the-top dramatics in his mental torture of others and realizing
that Natalie had buried two previous lovers who later turned out to not
really be dead and taking advantage of that in the worst way that made
the scene work for me. It was BECAUSE of its predictability that it
worked for me because it was the characters as we know them acting as
they should (and given how the last few months have felt like Higley's
rejoined the writing staff, i fully embrace characters acting like they
should!)
