This episode was so overwhelming, I couldn't bring myself to comment on it yesterday. Jo and Thore did such an amazing job and I'm still shaking.  I understand Olli and he broke my heart in the end, but he should know by now that his husband, who has lost everybody but him, would have a really hard time with Lilly's departure. That bit at the end, when Christian was boxing... such desperation...  Joanna and MM, you ladies are wonderful. Thank you for everything.  |

I don't think he's gone back to boxing, but when you feel like he does, punching something helps to take the hurt away. He can't train like he use too, but exercise is good for him. Since the bag is hanging there, my guess is that it's been there for a while and that he uses it from time to time.
I kind of wish he would go back to using sex as exercise. I think they could both use something to take their minds off of their situation.

i liked this episode so much.Especially the end of the episode.Full of feelings and emotions. Thore and Jo once again showed their great talent. Like i said yesterday I hope that in the first episodes of the next week we can see much of them and their conflictual relationship (and not like this time at the beginning where it seemed nothing had happened last week). the title can be explained like soapfan did(interesting point of view)

What I meant was that he recoursed to boxing to, like you say, take the hurt away, not that he's back to practicing boxing.  |

All this talking about boxing lead me to re-watch (  ) Nanna's vids of the beginning of Chrolli love. And as I watched that episode at the cabin, when Olli fell in love with Christian, I remembered that Olli started to see Christian differently after the talk about his father. He was impressed at the love and loyalty Christian showed for his dad. He realized then that he wasn't the arrogant asshole he took him for, but someone whose feelings were deep and humble. (Of course, seeing him walk around the flat in THAT blue towel must have helped a bit! ;D ;D). The same happened when Gregor crashed his helicopter and was in a coma. I recall that bit where Christian is crying in the bathtub, with his and Gregor's photo in is hands. Olli should know that Christian wouldn't let go of Lilly easily. He walks in and sees Christian holding Lilly's picture and he doesn't get it?  |

Actually, Olli did not see Christian holding that cute picture of Olli and Lily, Christian hid the picture under the book before Olli came closer to him.

You're right he didn't. That bothered me that when Christian picked up his book and left it, he glanced in the direction. I'm not sure if Thore left it by accident, or if Chrstian was worried that Olli would see it. Olli was too wrapped up in Chriatian being upset and didn't look at the table. I wish he had. He might have soften a bit to Chrsitian's postion.
Even without that. I watched the last few scenes and Christan saying that losing Lily was killing him, should have been enough to make Olli pull back. It broke my heart, but I guess Olli feels that if they can adopt a child it will help his heart heal. Guess we will see.

i think it's interesting; 'the beginning of the end' the return to boxing, and christian's "i can't fight anymore". considering all these factors, i don't think he's just talking about the adoption issue. more their fight to create a 'normal' life together. which started at the beginning, the boxing match where christian came out to the world! very interesting POV! but I have to admit, that I'm a little confused .... this should mean that Christian can't fight anymore and he has to admit himself that his relationship with Olli was just a lie?  and a 'normal' life together should mean : Christian, Olli and a child as the "normal" family , or a 'normal' life together as a gay-couple Christian and Olli ?? really don't know ...  |
