At the risk of repeating myself for the umpteenth time (but I have to mention it here again, because this episode suffers for it), the bad guys need to be heavy brutes. Look at the way Elena instantly bullies little Daniel Santos. She picks him up by the throat. And we are expected to be in suspense over the impending threat? These three stooges? It's just like that that one guy said at the end... "The three of us?" Yeah, they aren't even the B-team. They are the mismatched C- team. Notice that just everybody who isn't main credited cast in the opening montage, is expendable (I have kept waiting for the demise of Logan and his fiancé, for they are weak links) and not playing A-game. Even Greg Bryk is far below par, I kinda like the guy, but cast as Jeremy, the Alpha male, no, no, no. He was more cut out for Antonio's part.

Lots of male bondage in this one. The bad guys, however, are far more accommodating than Clay, who used a pair of steel pliers to... Remember Zachary Kane's particular fate? They seem like gentlemen compared to what Clay did. Keep track of such things, Canadian scriptwriters.

Some mistakes: Jeremy is planning to offer himself? In exchange? Ooh these Canadians. Ooh shame. How typically Seventies, Eighties storyline. What a useless futile effort it would be. Makes it so easy for the bad guy. Get with it, Canadian scriptwriters!

There's no (full) nudity in this one. There is, however, plenty of blood, and violent torture. And Victor's lucky rabbit's foot is used against him. Don't know about you, but bare skin's a whole lot nicer.
