The therapist believes that his PTSD comes from way back even as far as his experiences during the Korean war and not the Iraq war he was recently in.The hypnotist happens to be also Dr Tyler's old friend from medical school.He does hypnosis/Regression Therapy. Dr Tyler was listening to him reluctantly.Zed wonders why Cat resisted so much and yet she bothered coming to his talk. (good point Zed) She said she just found him on the internet and she didn't expect she will be listening to a lot of crap.(why does it feel like she's Still pulling a Bette Porter attitude) Cat: Hang on,I wanna go to talk to him Zed:If you want to probably humiliate him and everything he stands for then I prefer I wait outside. Cat: I try to keep the blood bath to minimum (And Dr Tyler is flirting! Zed nothing to worry.At ease) They were outside catching up after his talk when a man attacked Liam accusing him of stealing his life story.He claims that everything Liam told everyone earlier was already written in his book. Liam was as confused as everybody.He had no idea what the man was talking about and they ended having a fight to which Dr Hypnosis and Cat has to take Liam with him while Zed has to take care of the other man. Cat went to dinner with him.For her,it's just a formal work related dinner but her daughter teases her it's a date. (Did Cat ever consider dating someone outside her line of profession? Just a thought and maybe see if it works) While happily catching up, Liam showed up upset because his therapist seemed to question the authenticity of his testimony.During the confrontation,his PTSD kicked in and he had his traumtic memories playing again. (Geez,can these two at least have an uninterrupted conversation or date) Liam claims he saw the man (the writer) in his dream with him fighting side by side when he got shot.Dr Hypnosis plans on performing hypnosis for both of them at the same time so he can figure out the roots of the trauma.He also invited Cat to come see it for herself because he knew she's too curious about what he does. The case about the soldiers made me automatically think of Vincent from Beauty and the Beast because for some reason, I think that maybe,someone has messed up with their brains and they were use as a medical experiment. DR TYLER GOT A DATE... During dinner,he admitted that that he was planning on asking Cat after graduation in medical school but he felt intimidated by her brilliance and beauty and he just don't have the courage back then and he's wondering if only they could rewrite history. Cat dared him why not try asking her this time and they ended having a hot steamy sex and It's not that I noticed every small detail but how weird it is that they prefer doing it on the bedroom floor instead of doing it on the bed,more softer.Maybe,they want something harder to lean on or colder...I don't know.And Cat was the one on top.And her back is nice and fit. It was nothing but casual sex. A make up sex.And there's just that.No strings attached. As an Asian who grew up in a very conservative town and culture,sometimes I wonder how they can manage to have sex with the person they met once or just had dinner once.It's like dinner and sex are inseparable for them or was it just in movies? I do not have a wide knowledge about other culture so every time I watch an American movie and it comes to the sex part where the person just met someone and slept with them right on without even bothering to getting to know each other.For them sex is just sex.No strings attached,I have very limited understanding to this because I grew up knowing that sex is a very intimate thing that two lovers share. It is just something that I am not use to because all people around me mostly date only one person for a longer period of time.Then if it works,they commit to each other.They have this long process of establishing relationship even before sleeping together.To us,sex is sacred and not just some sort of past time. But of course today,people are more open minded and liberated.Some people I know settle for sex for fun and experience (like some sort of trophy) but mostly not on their first date or meet.(unless they are too wasted or have hormonal issues) I know I am too conservative and boring but I am glad I grew up at the time when people are a bit conservative when it comes to giving themselves and opening oneself to someone because it made me go in between.I value sex like a form of intimacy with someone you really love at the same time made me respect other people of their preferred moral values or relationship choices. Today,with all these vast exposure we get to see and watch on the internet,I have something to compare with and it gives me this understanding to respect others and be less judgmental to something that I am not use to or at times I cannot relate with.I learned that not because I don't understand or practice something gave me the license to hate it. "One more thing,I think you are kinda interested in the stuff I am in.It doesn't matter why.I was curious too at first.And I became more fascinated and the source kept coming in and I wanted to know more.I don't know.It came at a price.I lose professional relationships.My reputation,friends,I need too much to go back.So I'm telling you from my experience.Be careful"He asked her to try hypnosis but she just laugh at the idea.He insisted and she tried anyway out of curiosity and she faced her own trauma. She went to the place where she faced near death experiences twice.She also noticed same woman on both incident.She asked her ex husband if he's notice a woman wearing a scarf the night during the accident and death of their son but he didn't. The experience scared and overwhelmed her.She told him it didn't work for her but obviously she went somewhere too,probably to the root of her trauma. At the hospital... Cat's ex husband said she look terrible and she ask her if everything is okay.(I admire how they manage to work together and having to talk most of the time together about family stuff but not romantically involve.How do they do it?) Also she told him she is planning to clean Will's room but she wanted all of them to clean it as a family thing.(probably as a way of telling herself it's time to let go and move on) Meanwhile,Zed bump into an old friend Maya who was invited to do some speech all over America.She asked Zed to try calling home and make everyone happy.Maya believes that Zed's future has been decided for him and all he can do is follow. Towards the end of the episode,Zed calls home to her love and she was delighted to hear from him also emphasizing lots of time she's waiting for him to come home because he missed him so much. How will he face all these expectations from him? How will he turn politely deal with something that is culturally instilled or religiously believed by his folks? How can he work on dealing with arranged marriage? Destiny among other things? I hope one day,Zed will take Dr Tyler with him in his hometown to maybe do some sort of scientific research too in a cultural perspective. Back to the HYPNOSIS... During the hypnosis,They were able to come to the source of trauma.Turns out,the two were connected.They are in the same war. Liam tried to save Roger after he got shot but he died. How come then that he is seated next to the man he thought have died during the war? How did that happen? Another mystery I suppose. After her hypnosis experience,can she still say hypnosis is full of crap? Hypnosis seemed to be a torture the second time around because you have to get back to these painful event in search of something.To dig deeper and really look around and I think experiencing the pain twice again is just too much.But people are willing to do it specially if they believe that they might find some closure or answer to something that will settle their trauma.
I too believe in this because I believe in a lot of things.It doesn't hurt to believe specially when it gives you so much hope. By the way,I like this episode.The execution was smooth.I get to see the main characters relationship outside work.Zed reconnecting to his family back home.Cat exploring a possible relationship from someone from her past and same time trying to figure out how to face all her trauma and restart her life. But her scientific curiosity? Will she ever set aside that part of her? I think curiosity is what puts her into this position in the first place.I think once she started exploring it,she will not stop until she reach the end of the tunnel.Until when? We have to tune in to know more. Thank God,the show started to get exciting for me and I am definitely curious what happens next specially Zed.How will he do what he wanted to do without disappointing those who counted on him? Ah,I look forward next week! [JB still playing the dominant obsessive control freak character.Also,still the one on top during sex scene.Still got the same hair style,same face that doesn't seem to age. Ah,am I curse? I'm having a hard time to let go of her past character and embrace her new role? Can someone please hypnotize me so that I release my obsession (not TRAUMA though) of the past and let me move on and live at the moment. It's just hard watching LWORD & PROOF at the same time and trying so hard to convince myself to stop comparing Cat and Bette.Ah,I need help!]
