Other than the weirdness with Dick's Paris Vacation, I think this is my favourite episode. I mean, is it because of all the lingering shots on Damian's face? Probably yes. But it's a great character episode all around, at least for Dick and Nix, and has a lot of room for fic.

I really like the contrast with how incredibly comfortable with the guys Dick is in the first flashback scene with Tab and the dog, to his growing alienation and upset at being cut off from them on a daily basis.

Has anyone seen The Seven Sinners? I kind of want to watch it now.
