Okay, I watched the other 45 minutes of the Engrenages season 4 finale ...

... and I have to say that was pretty much EVERYTHING I could've hoped for from that particular TV plot trope.

I feel as if I should cut for spoilers (and there are major spoilers under the cut) even though I suspect the odds of most people on my flist ever watching this show are pretty low.

The plot trope in question being "let's blow up the building the main characters are in".

I knew Sami died (and wasn't that attached to him in the first place, although I liked him), so that wasn't too much of a blow.

BUT ALL THE REST OF IT. ♥♥♥ MY OT3! ♥♥♥ I mean, we got Gilou literally RUNNING INTO AN EXPLODING BUILDING, WHICH IS CURRENTLY EXPLODING because Tintin's in there; then semi-clinging to him in the rubble; then clinging to Laure and holding her while she cries. I think the only thing that would've made it PERFECT would be Tintin being part of the hug'n'sob pile, but I think he's kind of too traumatized (LET'S BLOW UP THE GUY WITH PTSD WHY DON'T WE). As much as I love the h/c-ish aspects of the show, the characters are all so restrained and macho when it comes to showing affection that we very rarely get the show just cutting loose with this kind of thing.

I regret nothing right now.

I will probably regret everything when I start watching season five.
