I can't even tell that is was powerful or stunning or any other words that could describe the quality of this episode because it's indescribable. I saw couples episode with Rider Stronger acting skills been to their full but this one is beyond that, I didn't drop one tear during the entire episode and that just means one thing : the scenes was too brutal emotionally talking for my brain to assimilate them entirely and then in some moment it puts on hold which take me away from any other emotion than shock and amazement. It means that the acting was far beyond brilliant, if I'm not crying it means that I deeply impacted and that's the only feeling my brain would tolerate to make me feel. That's what I felt during the scene Shawn has putted his guard the lower possible and first describe his childhood with his dad and all the scarred it has letting to him even now one and mostly on his relationship love as friendship or even his relationship with Jack. His last face expression after listing all the most painful memories he got during his childhood relating with his dad, the way he ask him if he lived and felt all he did, his eyes full of pain, sorrow and crying for help that was already too much but when he broke in tears front Chet finally saying all he always wanted to tell him, all that pain, that anger, that confusion, that loneliness and also that guilty feeling making him thinking as responsable of the way he has been treated, that he wasn't good enough and that's why Chet was treating him with any attention or reactions towards him whatsoever (the main road he has been traveling his entire life) and that's why he thinks he's so screwed up as much as Chet, yajt he's taking the same path, I think that's were I totally I lost it and where my brain put an hold to every feelings that I could be feeling seeing that scene except to be froze and cold, really bad cold sweats. What an actor my crowd, on of the best I ever got the chance to witness in my entire life. Chet was equally in the high level acting, when he was asking to Alan to look up for his boys, his eyes express was so alike to Shawn's, I didn't even react but stayed paralyze front my screen.
And when the gang came to check out on him, his eyes instantly catched Angela's and was crying for help so loudly, so desperately, so irretrievably screaming for her to rescue him so deeply, he was so about to loose it and she get that and go for him, it was so powerful because as much as in words than with eyes contact, they connect so beyond all physical and mental logical, that was speechless...
He's gonna loose it, is so gonna freak out, I'm not ready for I'm so not..
