I'm beginning to think that Kate flirts with anything that has a pulse. Then again, it looks like Ravi is flirting back! Sort of.

Kate goes back out on the street. "He's out there, which means I am, too." (Although there's no sign of her for a good twenty minutes.) It's interesting that Helen reassures Kate about Will. Have I missed something there?

"You did what you had to do." It's good to see that Kate's the pragmatic one. A more flexible sense of morality than either Magnus or Will, I suspect.

I'm curious if Will's speaking actual Hindi. And whether Terrence is actually evil, or just misguided.

You know, they could have done more with Kate in this episode: given her a more integrated background for the time in India. Yes, it's reasonable for a woman her age and background to be disconnected from her roots, but it would have been a useful way of utilising her more effectively in the episode.

I wonder how much Bollywood Robin Dunne had to watch to do this. And whether it's a specific type of dance that he's performing. The setup would appear to be a bridegroom-to-a-bride dance. (Not sure: haven't watched enough Bollywood. Makes my teeth itch.) Although the whole thing about Durga? Slightly problematic in that Durga is a feminine force, IIRC. And the mothering aspect of the goddess Kali, who is more often known as a destroyer.

One thing that annoys me is that the bad guys in this series often tend to be dreadfully "I am evil, hear me roar!" It's a bit OTT for my liking.

And we have Kali as Destroyer for the ending. Complete with tsunami cliffhanger.

Canadian Actor Bingo: Carson Beckett's Abnormal Cousin! (Terence Wexford, was it?) Like his evil twin clone.

And now, we wait for Kali III to download.
