S05.E04: The Deal


Recommended Posts

bye bye Nash and his exquisite wardrobe

Clarence should pursue acting as a hobby lololol that was great.

Mr. Potts and Ivy finally set a date!!!! yay!

wasn't expecting to see mrs. parker. we've lost so many minor/secondary characters over the seasons...at this point i never really expect any of them to show up again so it's a surprise when they do. same with Solomon! solomon II, that is lol. we've got a whole league of solomons to meet now.

watching eliza this season certainly has been interesting. Things have definitely shifted. She just seems so weary this season; her spark is gone. Curious to see if she gets it back.

I CANNOT believe we got Nash back and then he's gone! Say it ain't so!

And where the eff is Fitzroy this season? He's such a great character.

I believe some of the issues with characters disappearing may have to do with the filming location.  The Duke left because he has young children and filming in Serbia took him away from his family for long stretches.  That may be the issue with other actors as well.

That can't be right. Sigh. I was spoiled about some stuff.

I don't know whether it's ill-fitting costumes but the actress playing Scarlet looks pregnant to me.

 

I thought so too, especially when she wears a coat.

Eliza looked sooooo encouraged that Ivy and Mr. Potts would be living with her.

By the way, IMdb shows Nash in two more episodes this season.

She looked "overjoyed'! lol!

That could have to do with her losing the Duke. I saw quite a bit last night. Nash and her do work well together.

I hope Nash isn't really gone, he is such a great character.  Last season I thought they were going to set up a triangle with William/Eliza/Nash but it didn't happen.  Then this season I thought that there was going to be an eventual triangle with Blake/Eliza/Nash, but she doesn't seem to even consider Nash a possibility.  Now he is leaving (at least for now).

Clarence is a decent supporting character, but I would rather have Nash, Fitzroy or Moses on a more regular basis.  There's been an overload of Clarence and Mr. Potts this season, and not much from Nash and Fitzroy.  I miss Moses, don't understand why he is gone since we never got an in-show explanation.  I'm assuming the actor had a conflict.

In the season finale of last season, he was found standing over a body and then he fled.  Turns out the body was one of his informants.  Eliza and Fitzroy try to figure out what is going on while looking for Nash.  They find Nash in an abandoned factory.  He tied up the real killer, who also happened to have killed Nash's brother some years before.

Nash is about to kill the man and get his revenge, but Eliza steps in front of the gun.  She doesn't want Nash to become a murderer.  She talks him out of it by reminding him that he is the only one who ever believed in her.  This touches him and he agrees.  But the killer escaped his bonds, he is about to attack Eliza, so Nash shoots him in the arm.

Nash isn't a murderer but he did kidnap the guy, so he goes to prison for kidnapping.  He loses his detective licence and the office closes, which is why Eliza was back in her father's old office.  The last scene of the episode was her admiring the newly painted sign that has her name on it.

I really like Nash, but I am glad they never went the romantic triangle route with him.  I really like that he and Eliza have both a professional relationship and a platonic friendship (of sorts), without any "will they or won't they" about it.  

I think that it would have been interesting for Nash to stick around and be a non-romantic foil to Blake, should a Blake/Eliza relationship bloom.  For one, it would be unconventional for Nash and Eliza to maintain a friendship, being out in public as they often are together, in that era.  But also, Nash being a shady character adds another dimension.  If Blake is interested in Eliza, would have had to accept her friendship with Nash.
