Sheldon and Victoria??? Wow, I didn't see that one coming. But I'm kind of glad, they are both amazing.
Yes, excellent acting, very touching especially the facial expressions during chemo, reflecting each 5 minutes with Miranda. Great job!

Well, I loved it, and thought Brian Benben did a fabulous job last night, he really gave it his all. Very well written, no complaints from me. FYI, does everyone know he is married for 30 years to Madeline Stowe from Revenge, kudos to them.

This may be the best episode I've seen. Very in depth, well-acted, and moving. Just simply excellent performance.

I liked it. It wasn't mind-blowing, but it was nice - totally different from last week's drama. So, four episodes left, you say? My two all-time favorites, Charlotte and Amelia, and who else? James? One last for Addie? Oh God, I hope the end is really, really well done; PP should get a Mark Sloan exit, not a Lexie Grey one.

@Christina exactly! They never keep each others secrets so why start now? Sam should know how lonely and lost Sheldon must feel. You could see by the looks Sam has given him after his strange behavior at the practice.
The saddest moment for me was when Sheldon told Charlotte that he knows how she feels but he wouldn't tell her the truth, instead he told her the hideous gym story. Probably because he didn't wanna worry her given her condition. Another proof how much he puts others before himself. He is such an underrated character, it's a shame.

Like many of you, I was always fond of Sheldon. I too hope that Shonda won't use again the solution to kill a character and that Sheldon will survive. It would be too predictable, because she made that too often!!! I am disappointed that Amelia and Sheldon shared a lot last year and that we now don’t see them again together without any explanation. It’s a big lack of continuity.

I though this was one of the best episodes of the season. It was not as hectic as most of them, but kind of slow and exciting at the same time. It was so beautiful to see Sheldon singing for Sarah, everything brought together in that moment...
Also loved the repetition of the chemo, of the doctor, the room... It just worked.

I also agree with DeAnn. Yes the episode was slow but this episode epitomised sheldon and his state of mind. He is a calm, careful slow to act or react kinda guy and when he does its all va va voom.
He knew in his gut that Nick had Sarah but because of the lack or proof and his general nature he didn't act like Violet, Pete or Even Cooper would have. They would rush to judgement and do more harm than good. Its been done before. I was never a Sheldon fan but I really liked this episode. This ep and Jakes ep are by far my favorites if only for the guest stars. Dainne Faar and Marisol Nichols. Perfect casting. It was great insight into Sheldon but nothing I didn't already surmise.
I kinda hope that Violet and Sheldon end up together. Maybe she will do something useful and help him out of his depression when Diane's character dies...

@Betty Draper - You brought up several good points. Sam should have definitely been there for Sheldon or even told Amelia. It's not like they don't share each other's good and bad news all the time. Sheldon is always left out.

I agree with the reviewer I was actually really bored during the first half or so. I loved the scene at the hospital with Charlotte, so cute she actually is the strongest character in this series. Can't wait for her episode!!

I disagree with the reviewer, I loved this episode, and felt it was a welcome break from all the drama surrounding Addison and Sam and Jake and the Coopers...This was a rare opportunity to reveal more about a character who has gotten short shrift from Shonda and company for the entire run of Private Practice. I felt that there were a lot of subtle things happening in this ep, and I loved that Sheldon fell in love with Miranda during chemo, when both were vulnerable and he was on the rebound from his awful ex-wife and she made the point that she didn't want to become involved because she had had too many friends die, and of course she is terminal. It takes a huge amount of courage to fall in love when both parties have a limited amount of time together.And in the end, Sheldon was a hero, not just for finding the girl but for singing to her when she was afraid. I will really miss Private Practice

I've always liked Diane Farr and glad she's joined the show even if for a few episodes. I worried that Sheldon was going over the edge and happy that that all worked out. Can't wait for the Charlotte centric episode. I love her and her character. She adds spark and energy with her sarcasm and cynicism to an otherwise placid crew. She plays the part so well.
It's too bad the show is going off.

Please, knowing Shonda probably both Sheldon and Miranda will die by series finale.I continue to believe that the worst episode in the history of PP was Sam's episode.Just horrific.Can't wait for Charlotte's episode, she's awesome. She and Coopper could definitely have their own show, they're just that good.
I was so glad that Sheldon found Sarah. I really hope that Sheldon doesn't die from the cancer. That would be really depressing. And I hope in next week's episode that Charlotte gets to keep all get babies.

Sheldon had a really great moment finding Sarah. But unfortunately, I felt like everything else in the episode was a little blah. I felt like the pattern that they were going with was good to show how he was getting to know Miranda and all but it just didn't show enough about him as a character. A part of me actually feels the writers have always struggled writing for Sheldon because nothing great has ever really come from this character. It's great that he's finally met a woman that he truly cares for - but why did it have to be through cancer treatment? With the show ending, he deserves a lasting happy ending. And I was also disappointed that Amelia had no significant part in this episode when she has been very important to Sheldon in the recent seasons.

I love Sheldon so I'm glad he even got an episode, giving his other big-non-existing-storylines. But Shonda managed to screw him over.
First of all, could it been any more predictable that Nick took Sarah? We all knew it.
And why didn't the police questioned everyone who was that night in the ER?
Why didn't James tell the police about Nick if Sheldon couldn't?
So many plot holes.
Now it's Sheldon's fault that they didn't find Sarah right away. He will always feel guilty about it.
Don't even get me started on how on earth no one seemed to care enough for Sheldon to notice he is sick! And Sam knew so at least he could have been there for him or tell the others.
And knowing Shonda she will either kill Miranda or Sheldon which is really a shame...

Though I was extremely happy for Sheldon to get a storyline and an episode to himself, the fact that his cancer has been confirmed and that he could possibly die is not something I'm happy about. Sheldon finally got to be centre stage after all this time and what does Shonda have to show for it? A death certificate. I won't be impressed if he gets killed off by seasons end.

I really liked the episode, A LOT. And I knew Nick had Sarah ALL ALONG (I've watched too many Criminal Minds episodes to figure if someone guilty or not)... he was totally transparent.
I will really, REALLY miss Private Practice....

Im glad that the sarah storyline got an ending, and a good one at that. im glad that sheldon was right cause i really hated seeing him be so pushy so im glad it wasnt for nothing that we saw that side. my favorite part though was when he kissed miranda! i held my breath when she wasnt there so that part to me was great.
Addison: Then slowly, over time, everything changes. And you're no longer this young thing, and you don't believe in fairytales and "perfect" isn't in your v...
