it would have made a good 2 parter. I for one wanted to see more of Kahlans decent into DR bed friend. You don't go *facepalm* my god you're right, arch nemisis, let us pork for the good of all. It should have been drawn out more.

As for DR quick defeat, I think he'll be back, or at least still having an impact in season 2. He's got huge armies, they need to be paid, kept in line, etc. There must be more DR shenanigans!
