The Musketeers

[ZariusTwo]

The penultimate episode has aired

Spoiler:

A base under seige story, and boy was it bloody brilliant. The Cardinal is deliciously insane, destroying the reputation and livlyhood of a noble family based simply on a drunken ramble from the King. I had to groan at the moments D'Argtanian was close to finding D'Winter after picking up her fragrence, only to be called away before he could closely inspect the room.

I'm not particulary fond of these random unrequited past love interests showing up in these episodes just to add on some additional angst. There wasnt much room for a juicy catfight between the pair of Aremis' two intendes either due to the nature of one of them as a nun, and then she goes and gets offed. I suppose if it were to set up Aremis and the Queen mucking about it did it's trick though...obviously the Queen will now fall pregnant miraculously with Aremis' child and she'll probably announce it at the end of the finale next week.

Doesnt Aremis turn evil later on in the books or am I remembering things wrong? This is a perfect set-up if it is.
