How does it feel?
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home

Well, ladies and gentlemen, this is how you do a Season Finale and how you title it – with a brilliant Bob Dylan song that fits the bill perfectly!
And may I just say I will miss Sundays? Thanks to Showtime releasing the new episodes Saturday at midnight, I watched the show two times until 2am and took notes.

I give standing ovation to all brilliant minds behind and in front of the camera for surpassing all expectations!
