They both acted their asses of in this scene, they are always fantastic together but this scene is particularly spellbinding. Incredible work from both of them. What a gut punch of a scene.

[@williammccormick2802]

It's actually kinda insane how long these two were comfortable pretending to be happy.

[@bboynava1812]

Its because they had happy moments, they just didnt realize because they are still in shock with all the shit that has happened since the Sudden Departure.

It's like what Patti said in season 2. “What you and Nora have isn't love, it's damage control. Your family blew up, Nora's family blew up and now got cling on to each other because you have to climb onto something.”

[@snatchgrab]

A year later & I'm still wondering why this scene, episode, & ultimately this series didn't win Best TV Drama: Series, Writing, Directing, Actor, Actress. Season 3 of this Series deserved several GG awards.

[@snuke37]

In what world does it make sense for neither of these two actors to get a nomination. Seriously, da fuh?

[@BipoIarbear]

This is just 2 people who love each other thinking they are going to get hurt and not completely letting go , and the argument starts and it's easier to push away , in those moments the worst things are said, no wonder she didn't go find him when she came back and of course he searched for her all those years, how could he forgive himself for the stuff he said...the years between them meeting again was probably the only reason they got together

[@DaedalusR]

I think for Nora is was more the fact of what Kevin said here, she went, found her family but chose to let them go, just like she did with the baby. This made it so she had to take responsibility for her state of life, no excuse like Kevin stated

[@henrychinaski5938]

Daedalus I think Nora lies . She didn’t go anywhere at all.

This scene right here is what made me stop watching the show and wait 4-6 years before watching it again. It was way too much for me at the time, and I knew I needed to get through a few more years of living before I could fully appreciate it. Only other show to get me to do that was Breaking Bad

[@probag8414]

I love how Kevin is angry that Nora won't get past her shit or even try. And then he can't get over Nora and basically has to go tell her that he can't.

[@Mike-O-Sullivan]

Breakups are brutal. It's incredible that a show whose (apparent) central premise is a bunch of folks disappearing into thin air could instead present a survivor's platform and deliver a parade of beautifully, brutally human moments. There's no doubt in my mind that The Leftovers is the finest ever examinmation of the human condition. Bravo!

[@Rhino1931]

I’m not sure how many of you have acted before, but doing stuff like this is legitimately stressful and does actually get you fired up. In my film class I had to perform a similar scene and it literally just leaves you shaking; took me a good 10 minutes just to calm myself down after we finished. Acting can be fucking crazy.

[@x-man9473]

Yup. I take an acting class. Once I get fired up for the scene, it's difficult to to be happy again for a few minutes.

[@evangelionl0vr857]

Watching this show had me several times worked up or depressed and took a while for me to get back to normal, so I can’t imagine acting in it.

I've just been a cold monster for a girl I love with whom I had an intense relationship that I've made the mistake to let her come back in my life after we broke up two years ago. We recently had sex together,it was passionate but she doesn't love me and doesn't want me to be part of her life anymore. My last words to her on the phone were with a cold hearted voice " I regret to have met you in the first place, regret to have loved you, regret to still loving you, and regret to have make love with you, then goodbye".... It's not true of course, I just wast hurt.... But I think I've done what I needed to do to close the door and keep her away of my life forever so I can move on..it hurts, I've made her watch this show and we were supposed to talk about it after she would have ended it. She's almost finished it. But I Guess we will not... Life can be really tough sometimes. Maybe she'll understand the reason why I was so upset after the last episode, with Kevin real motivations...but it's not gonna change anything at this point..

[@realeparanormal9517]

Man, Kevin gave up on Nora pretty quickly. Granted Kevin realized the foundation of the relationship was fatally compromised, beyond salvage, but never-the-less I felt he was a bit callous in this scene. He basically said, "Go incinerate yourself if you can't move past your family being gone...." Jeez, I guess that's what they mean by "tough-love."

[@benderb.r5041]
