In this week's episode we examine Episode 6, Season 1 of Forever Knight, entitled "Dying to Know You." What is memory? What does is it mean to lost to memory? Why is everyone just okay with this psychic tromping around a crime scene? Why does Natalie think protein shakes will help Nick? And...oh MY GOD IS THERE A MUSIC VIDEO IN THIS EPISODE?
