The Michael and Oksana relationship


Anyone here liked it?

I thought they were great together.

I thought it added an interesting dynamic to the show.

"You're just jealous because the voices only talk to me"

It was nice seeing how much Michael loves Oksana.

reply

Not enough to defend her though. He thought his pacifist ideals were more important than her, until it came to his life that was at stake.

reply

What?!!!

Explain what you mean, please? I didn't get that at all.

reply

I can't remember the exact scenes by now. But basically, when she was the one who was in danger, he was willing to chance her dying. But when it came to his own skin, he fought hard. Basically, he is an *beep*

reply

Somehow, it didn't come across that way to me. The first time he tried to escape, and she got beat up, he had no clue that they would use her against him. When they actually escaped together, he protected her.

reply

Nah, not that.

I recall a bit better now. Think it was the train scene. He had the bad guy down, but refused to shoot him. But when it was his own skin at the shed/barn/house, he was perfectly willing to shoot him.
