Warning: Spoilers
We begin here with Dolarhyde (D), working on his speech exercises. Obviously he is still quite concerned with his own ability to speak clearly.

Oh, they explain here now how D did get the phone call to Lecter through the system.

Wow. Dr. Du Maurier, giving a lecture on how she was 'swallowed by the beast', and became Lydia Fell. Graham is in attendance, and confronts her with his utter disbelief. Lovely performance by Gillian Anderson in this role. Such a departure from her other most popular roles.

Bedelia doesn't succumb to Graham's taunts and tells him to make an appointment. Hahaha.

+1 Star for Dr. Du Maurier.

D takes Reba on a 'date'. He takes her to an animal hospital to visit a Tiger, that is tranquilized and passed out on the vet table. What an amazing experience that would be for a person with sight. I can't even begin to imagine it myself. Reba sheds tears of amazement, joy, happiness, sadness?? from the experience.

+1 Star for that touching scene

Reba knows how to make martinis too! Blind or not she manages quite well. Reba is quite impressed with D, and his gestures of kindness towards her.

D and Reba bond the relationship! D begins to see Reba as some sort of Angelic Figure to his 'becoming'.

Another meeting with Graham and Du Maurier. I guess he made that appointment!!! Bedelia admits to Graham that she does 'obfuscate'. Haha, a complete spin around from her Scully role right?? Where obfuscation was the enemy???

+1 Star for the writers humorous take on that

We then get a mixed interview between Graham and Du. Maurier and another patient of hers, the new Mr. Spock!!!! Zachary Quinto. Oh my it's the replay of the patient that died under her care. That Lecter helped her to cover up.

+1 Star for this late reveal.

Graham connects the symbol he found on the tree outside the Leeds house to a mahjong tile. The symbol is for a red dragon. Graham is getting closer. Lecter admires the 'becoming' of this Dragon. Graham, views Lecter with what appears to be contempt.

Skip to D. He's visiting the museum to view the original water color of Blake's Red Dragon. The curator tells him of course he's not supposed to touch it. Whack to the neck and down she goes. D removes the fabulous Red Dragon from its protective cover, smells it, snuggles it, and then devours it.

Ruh Roh! Graham shows up at the same time to view the Dragon also!! Graham has a confrontation with D as he tries to escape the scene. He tosses Graham around like a rag doll but leaves Graham relatively unharmed. Graham has seen his quarry now!!!

+1 Star for the museum ending / Red Dragon eating.

This episode finishes one of the better ones this season. 9/10
