The Cure for the Carousel

The way that Ellie responds to the magic of the carousel made me think of that great frank line like paying attention to things. It's how we show love because like Riley is paying attention to Ellie by taking her here even though she has this other motive, which will be revealed in episode one. The look, I mean, I had the same response to look on Ellie's face. They're unbelievable. And the way across episodes, there are these moments of utter yearning in a gaze. Like what is a character looking at and toward that feels like it's out of reach? That's actually more tragic.
