Never Let Me Go Ep 11
Damn, this episode is a fucking roller coaster.
We get this cute moment and then the next thing you know, Palm is being kidnapped by the jackass. Everything goes down here from there till Nueng is forcing Palm to put a gun to his head.
Finally, reason takes over for both of them.
Can I just say that these two acted their asses off. Putting so much feels and body language into the characters. If I turned the subtitles off, I would still be able to capture the essence of the story.
This is just a visually stunning moment that oozes confidence. Which is just sexy.
These two have truly grown since having come together. One has become more affectionate and happy, less serious. While the other has grown in both confidence and compassion. They make each other better people.
Then here comes the bully. Completely unprepared for the confident Palm. He just thought he was dealing with a kid like his son. But Palm's been more like an adult for way too long. He was just momentarily surprised. With a game plan in place. He isn't easily bullied.
The redemption of Palm's parents storyline kind of breaks my heart. I'm not sure how to feel. One part of me is grateful that there is closer, but the petty part of me has a hard time accepting it. Anybody else with a parental love hate relationship, having difficulties? I truly love how Nueng has grown and how he is always standing up for Palm. Giving him the support Palm probably never knew he needed.
From Palm's face, you can tell he has a much harder time forgiving his dad compared to his mom. He loves his dad. The love is there. But the forgiveness isn't easily given.
Then they head to the sea to spread Palm's mom's ashes.
The conversation they have truly breaks my heart. "I think my mom would want to see me happy. I think she would want to see us together."
"They said the more obstacles we face, The longer our love will last and the more meaningful it will be." "Then I think our love will be a legend." We see an optimistic Palm here, but in the next scene we see him gearing up to be left. He's been through so much that he would rather prepare for the worse and be thankful when it doesn't come true. But he really can't take any more hurt.
This could have all come to an end in 11 episodes if he had just shot him.
I know, I know. I'm mainly speaking through pictures, but damn if the body language in this episode didn't speak so much.
"I'm glad to have you buy my side." "The most important thing is, I want to have you in my life." "If you want to be with me, I’ll be with you." And he will, because he knows he is like his dad and he'll love his one important person forever.
Then that fucking cunt of an uncle has to be a thorn in the side. Can't wait for someone to take him out.
