What I’m Watching: Physical

Physical: Season 2, Episode 8 “Don’t You Run and Hide” (B+)

This episode felt a bit like a dream, not the same one where Vinnie came over in his sappy commercial to talk to Sheila about her bulimia, but the truth did come out in the most direct way it has throughout the entire course of this show. Vinnie was right to question Sheila on whether she was there to work for him or to become him, and he provided some quick mentorship to her as he went about his day. Sheila confessed both about her eating disorder and the voice in her head, and Vinnie did a remarkable job of forcing her to share everything and confront it. Unfortunately, all it took was a bit of stage fright to send him right back to Marika, showing Sheila that he wasn’t able to overcome his demons and let them take hold of him again despite putting up a façade. I still think this was a strong role for Anna Gunn, a far cry from her Emmy-winning time on “Breaking Bad” but I guess something different and interesting. I enjoyed greatly that, after Wanda told Danny he was being forced out of his own organization for not having the right leadership skills, he ended up being saved in the ocean by Tyler. Bunny was entirely suspicious the entire time that they were eating the failure of a mole (he meant guacamole) that he had offered, and things seemed to be going very well until Tyler blurted out a piece of information that Danny didn’t know, which has now sent him searching for Sheila at precisely the wrong time.
