No drop.  They pulled him up with a noose around his neck.

I thought this week's episode was really good. Especially the Mei / Bohanon thing, where they kinda gave him a taste of his own medicine right after he finally decided to stop leaving the people he cares about.

I also really liked the music in this episode, though I'm still trying to track down the instrumental from when Cullen and Mei were doing it. Playing various versions of "All My Tears" on Amazon right now. :)

Actually, disregard, and if you watch via Amazon, you might want to wait till they correct their mistake before you watch this week's (yesterday's) episode. Apparently "Gambit" is supposed to be about Durant and his kidnapping plot. Amazon mistakenly pushed out either next week's or the following week's episode (which has what I referred to above in it) under the "Gambit" title.

Crap. Now I'm watching out of order.
