[pressgang] Dex's dark days

[Maya Crabtree]

In something terrible?
And I was sure I had watched it so many times, that nothing escaped me....
Much watch it again.

In general the series seemed to imply - these guys are doing something when
we're not
watching, but it's not that important because they have a full relationship
and that's what's interesting. Which is a really good message? And now that
I come to think of it,
Maybe that's what bothers me so much in the later series, especially TAC...
there it seems there is nothing between them when we're not watching - no
talking no being together,  no relationship..
