![]() In the team offices, Nate is needling Will, and Beard is still looking on disapprovingly. What's more, at the bottom of her drink is a little army man, just like the one he gave Jamie at the end of last season. Ted has left without saying goodbye, just like Sharon wanted. But when Mae returns to Sharon, it's with only one drink - and a note. They head off to the pub for a drink.Īt the pub, after some pinball, they order another round, and Ted goes off to the bathroom. And when she points out that he was supposed to read her letter, he insists that he didn't, and he isn't going to, and doesn't she understand that his fears of abandonment makes this a really bad thing for her to do to him? Of course, he eventually does read the letter, and while they don't say exactly what's in it, it's clear that it moves Ted greatly, and their rift is quickly healed. Not too surprisingly, he's unhappy she didn't say goodbye. Ted confronts Sharon when she comes home on her bike, so she invites him up to her apartment to talk. Higgins has to nudge Ted with a pun ("Don't letter get away with it, Ted") to get Ted to even take his letter, but Ted takes it and storms off in search of Sharon. She left without saying goodbye, but she left letters for everyone. I enjoyed the snippet we did see, though, and special kudos to Phil Dunster (Jamie) for being the most committed dancer I wasn't expecting to ever see dance.īut when Ted drops by Sharon's old office - which is finally Higgins' office again - to invite her to her own surprise party, he learns that she's already gone. But as it turns out, he's also training the team to perform NSYNC's "Bye Bye Bye" for her, and let me tell you that whatever you think about the rest of this episode, not seeing the rest of that routine is a travesty. Ted tells Rebecca and Keeley that Sharon is almost at the end of her time with Richmond, and there's going to be a gift: a wad of cash. She attempts to smooth it over by saying "it happens to the best of us sometimes," even though I would put money on the fact that it has never happened to Keeley or to a lot of other people. Nate responds by grabbing her and kissing her and then apologizing. She says she does she learned it from Rebecca, and it's been inspiring. But as she's putting a tie on him, he starts asking her the questions he asked Roy and Beard earlier about whether she's ever had the urge to be in charge, be the boss. While they're talking about how she gets hit on by parents, she asks him (maybe 70% idly, 30% curiously) whether he's married, and Roy says no, with no mention of Keeley.įor her part, Keeley has fun trying on clothes with Nate. But the teacher is getting ready for a fundraiser, so Roy winds up hanging around and chatting with her. Meanwhile, Roy goes to Phoebe's school and learns that he missed her her mother picked her up. Keeley runs into Nate, who wants her help buying a fancy suit (he doesn't say what it's for), and she says they'll go shopping together, since she needs something for the photo shoot. Keeley is super excited about the fact that she's going to be in Vanity Fair as a powerful woman who's "on the rise." What's more, they want to come to her place and take some pictures of her and Roy together (including his eyebrows, which apparently Vanity Fair has issues with, although for the record, I do not). She confesses that she can't give him any kind of an answer about their relationship, but she knows she can't ask him not to leave, but she hopes he won't leave. When Sam gets home, he finds Rebecca sitting on his doorstep. Sam inspired the world with his protest, Edwin says, and he's just the right person to join the effort. It turns out Edwin is buying Raja Casablanca in Morocco (a real team!), which he hopes to fill with players who are from Africa but are playing around the world. Sam finds this argument compelling, clearly, and he's intrigued when Edwin says he's essentially an ethical billionaire who's breaking up the empire he inherited so that he can "make better things, and hopefully make things better." Wooed with West African food in what turns out to be a pop-up restaurant Edwin set up, Sam is clearly tempted by the offer Edwin is making, even though his initial response is that he's not likely to leave Richmond. Meanwhile, Edwin takes Sam to a museum to show him a piece of art by Kelechi Nwaneri (a Nigerian mixed-media artist) that Edwin has just bought so that he can donate it to a museum in Ghana. ![]() His stuff is really fascinating and beautiful, and he was obviously a very intentional and thoughtful choice for this scene.Īnd Al-Jazeera English has a documentary online about Casablanca Raja fans that has a lot to say about the team's role in their lives. ![]() You can read more about Kelechi Nwaneri in this interview in Art & Object.
