I had a dream last night that the world was new again. I could have lived forever in those short hours of blissful oblivion.**While the group makes plans to take back Gage's compound, Page awakens. The reunion between Page and everyone nearly breaks Reagan. The pain of it all is too much. She can't handle being the outcast and still have these feelings for Hendrix. Feelings she just cannot turn off. Then there are the feelings she has for Kane. Sure they don't even compare to the ones she carries for Hendrix, but again, she can't just turn them off. Add the guilt of Page's predicament on top of all that...emotions just festering, all bottled up inside of her. Reagan is about to lose it if she doesn't learn to control it. Surviving is the only way out. And that is what she plans to do. Survive!This is probably one of the hardest Love and Decay reviews I‘ve had to write. Not that I didn’t like it, because I loved it. I just keep going back over what I have down and deleting it. There are things I want to say, but it would be too spoilery. I guess I can say it like this…Reagan has some much needed time to think over the past couple days. Think on her past and think on her future. Hendrix has also had some time to think. But I don’t necessarily think his thinking helped anyone involved. Maybe they should have kept their distance for a bit longer. Because I am confused now more than ever with these two.**I felt too much. I saw too much. And it was destroying me.But he didn’t want to see that. All he let himself believe was that I had somehow betrayed his trust and fallen for another man. And those things were not true.**I mentioned in my review of episode 8 that I had this feeling of something big is about to happen. Well, this episode just reconfirmed those feelings. The anticipation of what they will find at the compound and if they will be able to take down Matthias is high. The group is at their brink and I feel that the last remaining episodes of this season will be fireworks. Absolute fireworks!Now even though this was a hard review to write I still loved this episode. How could I not love it? We get some one on one time with Hendrix and Reagan. For those that love Kane, there is a really great scene there as well. Yes, even I can admit that was a really good scene. And of course we get some ravenous zombie action. All in all, it was a fantastic episode. I am, however, nervous for what is to come...even more so nervous for my favorite characters. I need the next episode soon! I guess since I have 2 weeks to wait I should start preparing myself now. *Bites nails* Another 5 Star Episode!
