Royal Pains: Season 4, Episode 6 “About Face” (B+)
I must say, it’s a small TV world we live in where two shows can feature the same rare condition in the same week. This particular case of prosopagnosia proved far less deadly than it did on Monday’s episode of “Perception,” but it did cause Ashley Williams’ Sydney Bartlett a far deal of trouble in terms of keeping her club members happy. Reuniting Williams with her former “Good Morning, Miami” costar Mark Feuerstein wasn’t terribly exciting, but it’s worth mentioning. I loved Dr. Sacani’s efforts to be more like Hank, particularly his delivery of “Call me Jeremiah, how can I make you feel better today? It would be great to have him stick around for an extended stint in the Hamptons, and HankMed 3.0 seems to be functioning quite well, though I agree with Evan’s concern that Paige working for the company may not be the best idea. The apparent suicide attempt by Divya’s father is sure to shake her, and it’s likely that her mother will come back to be with him again and he’ll be able to forgive Divya for breaking her engagement. I’m so glad that Hank pursued Harper, but it’s a shame that he got paged by Boris at just the moment that could have been the start of something fabulous. The ending of the episode was considerably more serious than usual, and I hope that this latest mysterious adventure with Boris pays off in terms of a surprising revelation or new direction for the show.
