I still don't know what to think about this episode. I've watched it a couple of times (and last night with my daughter who was furious with Merlin). There was so much good stuff here but I can't seem to get over Merlin telling Arthur no.

TPTB have no idea what they are doing so I'm not really sure what to expect for the future. If it were me, I'd have Mordred be the good guy until the end and the vision that Merlin saw was of Mordred fighting someone else to save Arthur and Arthur getting stabbed by a 3rd party (maybe Morgana). And then Merlin using magic to heal him - while Arthur is awake!

I just don't know. But I will be a wreck if they really kill off Arthur.
