SCP37 - Hannibal S03E03 - "Two Sides of the Same Coin" The strangely-named third episode of Hannibal’s third season brought us another episode filled with surrealism and powerful thematic elements.  The themes that bookended Secondo were, once again, forgiveness and betrayal.  Hannibal seems to be dealing with whether or not he can let go of his feelings of betrayal and forgive Will Graham, and is using Dr. Du Maurier as his therapist to work through these emotions.  While Hannibal spends time in therapy, Will is deconstructing Hannibal’s memory palace in order to find a path that will lead to Hannibal.  Jack returned in this episode and was dealing with his feelings as well.  He met Inspector Pazzi and had a very therapeutic talk-it-out session regarding how he feels he betrayed Will and what Hannibal means to both Pazzi and himself.  Everyone seems to be looking inward in this episode, leaving us, the audience, uncertain as to whether or not they will find what they are seeking. Secondo Recap Hannibal & Du Maurier Secondo opens with Hannibal and Dr. Du Maurier having a sort of therapy session discussing Hannibal’s feelings about Will Graham – specifically, Hannibal’s confusion about whether or not to forgive Will for his betrayal.  Bedelia reminds Hannibal that forgiveness requires two people, much like falling in love does.  She also warns him that if he doesn’t resolve his feelings he will get caught. Later, Hannibal and Du Maurier host Professor Sogliato for dinner.  Hannibal serves Punch Romaine, the cocktail served to first class passengers on Titanic during their last meal.  Hannibal’s use of the ice pick to make the cocktail foreshadows they way he later jams said ice pick into Sogliato’s temple.  Bedelia later pulls the ice pick from Sogliato’s head to put him out of his misery, prompting Hannibal to inform her that she technically killed him. During another dinner scene, Hannibal serves Sogliato to two patrons of the Caponni Library.  He tells them they are eating spring lamb.  Later that evening Hannibal helps Bedelia wash her hair and she asks Hannibal to talk about the first spring lamb he ate, which she then implies was his sister Misha. During the last scene of the episode, Hannibal and Du Maurier have another “session” in which they once again discuss forgiveness and betrayal.  Hannibal’s sister Misha comes up in their conversation and it is implied that the reason Hannibal ate Misha may be differ

SCP35 - Hannibal - S03E01 - "Hannibal's Broken Heart" This week Jamie and Jenny spent a lot of time discussing the relationship between Dr. Du Maurier and Hannibal Lecter.  Jamie thinks that Du Maurier is more like Hannibal then she is willing to admit and Jenny thinks that she is Hannibal’s unwilling captive.  There was also discussion about how the season three opener was a pivot from a creepy crime procedural, which Hannibal felt like in its first two seasons, to a show that felt more like an artistic homage to the Thomas Harris novels. Episode Recap Hannibal rode his motorcycle to a party in Paris where he meets Anthony Dimmond (Tom Wisdom) while looking for Dr. Roman Fell. They discussed poetry and Dr. Fell, for whom Dimmond served as a TA for in England. Lecter followed Dr. Fell to his house, killing him and his wife after she walked in on Hannibal eating Fell’s liver.  Flashback #1 Dr. Abel Gideon is seen eating his cooked leg with Lecter, where he commented that Lecter is truly a personification of the Devil.  He asked Lecter to tell him a fairy tale, which begins the current time line of Hannibal and Du Maurier in Florence, Italy. Lecter and Du Maurier are shown as having traveled to Florence, Italy, where they are assuming the identities of Fell and his wife.  While at a gala Sigliato challenges Hannibal’s knowledge of Dante and his ability to be the curator of the Capponi Library. Sigliato ask Hannibal to give a speech at the library’s studiolo to prove himself.  Hannibal graciously accepts. While preparing for this lecture Hannibal runs into Anthony Dimmond who greets him by the name Boris Yakov, the name Hannibal used in Paris.  Hannibal invites Dimmond to dine with him and Du Maurier using his characteristic cannibal catch phrase, “My wife and I would love to have you for dinner.”  Flashback #2 The conversation between Du Maurier and Jack Crawford, from season two, is replayed before we see Du Maurier return to her home that she left in fear for her life. When she entered she found Hannibal taking a shower.  She held Hannibal at gunpoint and asked him questions about Will Graham and the rest of the FBI scoopy gang.  This is when the audience realizes that this is a flashback taking place the same night as the events of the season 2 finale. Hannibal used his charm and manipulation to make Du Maurier feel as if she was always more important to him then the FBI crew and she lowered her gun. Flashback #3 Lecter sho
