I thought that this was a result of his work with Dr. Rosen. Many autistic people just need the right environment and/or tools to be able to function in society. Like most disabilities, it is the way society is structured that creates problems rather than the different ways that people interact with the world. However, you made me think about other possibilities such as the down side of Gary's ability and perhaps that is reducing in some way. The above comments still apply but the source of the "problems" is different.drnanamomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03667806039402426676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-10187907738172441172012-08-20T07:33:04.255-04:002012-08-20T07:33:04.255-04:00I thought this was a good episode, more so than pr...I thought this was a good episode, more so than previous ones. I do have one thing that bothered me though. Is it just me or is Gary getting, um... "less autistic"? I know that isn't good way to put it, but it the best I could think of. At the very least the nature of his autism seems to be changing since he is more responsive, and is smiling a lot more (might be due to participating in a lot of comic relief). Would be interesting if his ability is affecting him, and how. I'm not sure if this is intentional by the writers or the actor or what not.Erannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-91399056773308253872012-08-18T21:47:32.848-04:002012-08-18T21:47:32.848-04:00Just saw this one and I agree with CrazyCris that ...Just saw this one and I agree with CrazyCris that it was the best one so far this season. I actually thought Nina was going to die. Awesome rescue. And you're right, Doc, Straithern was awesome.<br />Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-50933998538877089632012-08-18T16:15:34.039-04:002012-08-18T16:15:34.039-04:00This episode finally clicked with me in a way prev...This episode finally clicked with me in a way previous ones hadn't! And I don't quite know why... maybe the fact that it made such a strong character as Nina more human, more relatable, and quite a tragic figure! How on earth is she going to regain their trust? And if she IS an addict, doesn't that mean they shouldn't ever ask her to use her ability for the team? In which case, what use is she to the team?CrazyCrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17512240982215608638noreply@blogger.com
