I suppose She didn’t say that she is Lee’s friend when he said that he is her friend.
Well, then she’s just a manipulative loser, who wants to make sure Lee will always be there for her when she makes no promises to him. And I really don’t think this is what they’re going for.
I think you are right and they are just very busy trying to prepare these huge “surprises” for us and they forget that maybe they need to be consistent about how the characters interact and there is no way that the characters in “The Captain’s Hand” would be acting this way (in the early part of LDYB, I mean, even leaving aside the mysterious rift from the final half hour of Fat Lee Destroys My Soul).
It did appear that she felt uneasy and may be is feeling guilty about something..
Well, it certainly seems they had a huge rift, and I have to believe that it’s not just because Kara was so rude about Dee – although perhaps she continued to be rude about Dee to the point where Lee was forced to choose between them and he chose Dee instead of Kara? I don’t know. It did seem to me that Lee felt himself the wronged party.
The Kara/Lee relationship was definitely one of the key things for me in Season 1; and I guess I’d be OK with this (because for the most part, I found it really interesting even in Season 2 and one of the things that I have actually liked – for the most part – until these episodes, where it seemed like everything they’d gone through up till Lee hoping for Kara’s sake that she found Anders was all negated.) But they also took away Lee’s relationship with Laura, and they made his relationship with his father unconflicted, and therefore quite marginal to the story and the loss of all those things just bugs me. That and fact that it seems to me like the writers neither know nor care where they are going with Lee’s story unless it impinges on Kara’s.
Yes, at least it is all over (do you mean the season or the love or whether you're not planning to watch ever again?) I think I have seven months to decide whether I really want to watch Season 3, but I can safely say I am never going to be as invested as I once was. Much like Lee, I am very unforgiving when things disappoint me :P
