And with Elliot acting as chief cheerleader he’ll probably be around for a long time, no matter how useless he is. Is he just there to give audience members so inclined something nice to look at? Because the appeal is lost on me.
Good to see Henrik back though, although the episode is oddly reluctant to admit that from the outset given that we’ve already seen him. And it’s nice that instead of arriving with a flourish he just calmly walks in and starts giving orders as though he’s never been away. One oddity: Guy gave up CEO because he wasn’t allowed to continue as a surgeon otherwise, yet Henrik is apparently called away to do an operation at one point? I’d have liked Zosia’s reaction to Annabelle’s news to be a bit more understated (but I guess she’s got bipolar as an excuse). Henrik leaving Guy quaking in his boots and trying his hardest to show his is bigger (and failing) after so long playing King of the Castle is great.”
I'm not happy to have him back. He'll never be forgiven for what he did to his sister. If you can do that to family, you're scum of the lowest order.
I'm probably the only person not ecstatic to see Hanssen back. He had his time. If things were so good in his life, why come back?
Another that lacks respect for family but is over looked because he's liked.
There's another character on the show dotes on his daughter and would do anything to make sure she's happy and loved but that gets ignored because he isn't universally "liked"
