If I had to pick one episode to watch from all the animes I've ever seen it would without a doubt be this episode.

The BEST ever! Period

Good episode, we get to see the contrast between Revy and Rock, with rock showing off his observational prowess. His little scuffle with Revy was great, resolving the loose ground between them ending with a pirates kiss.

Awesome episode. The argument between Revy and Rock is a highlight of the series so far. Rock has some balls I didn't know he had.

Hmm, didn't expect Rock to man up like he did.
Kinda intimidated Revy as well.

Cigarette kissu at the end was pretty fitting as well.

I realized why I love this show. There's like a great scene every minute, so by the end of each ep I can't even recall them all.

The strip club, russian porn editing, the sisters.. and yeah, never would have expected Rock to man up like that! "kiss" ftw

That was awesome, I really liked Rock's confrontation with Revy, and their cigarette kiss in the car. Quality characters. Even the side characters like the nuns and Balalaika the russian crime boss are really good. Best series I've seen in a while.

This was the episode that was key in drawing me into the show I think. Before this it was alright, but the character development within the last half was incredible.

The cigarette kiss was one of the best parts of the entire series.

The content of Rock's arguments against Revy's actions and attitude rang very true. I was glad to see a character in an anime not beating about the bush about his feelings and convictions. The reasons he gives for his concern for the self-destructive Revy is also quite understandable.
I never liked (and never will like) people who give up on principles and morals for the sake of surviving miserably in an endless circle of violence and fear. Such cowardliness cannot be justified by any amount of suffering. Revy is one such character and it is a great achievement for the author of this story to manage to make her a character one would feel sympathy and compassion for.
The last indirect kiss scene was very moving and beautiful but also very sad. All in all, one of the best anime episodes I've seen in a while.

Sick episode, also my favorite episode.

Rock was just pure badass, he came up with a comeback for everything Revy said and that was just badass. Even without guns and fighting, that argument was enough to make me super happy.

Pretty much everything said above. Rock finally shows as the business negotiator.
Best scene had to be market one.
Good to see Revys attitude change (even if its still grouchy) I was getting bored with the previous tone.

Did any1 else understand what was happening in the porn one? :S

OMFGLULZ! This show is fantastic. Truly quality entertainment! And just to let everyone know, this is an amazing dub!! The VA's are perfect, maybe the best dub ever? Idk about that, but it's great. Every part of this ep was fucking awesome!! Rock is the shit!! Revy thought she had that shit under control with the sisters, and Rok put that shit down! LOL at the porn scene, "Wait a minute...is she taking it up the @$$?" And, the market scene was just pure win. Rok finally grew a pair, and Revy liked it!! The "monkey-fuck" kiss was nice. But, I thought she would grab his junk, and be like..."This is mine now, Bitch!!" LULZ just kidding...Urahara Out!!

Rock is the shit now man.First I was getting sick of him and Revy then He just laid it down and basically said "FUCK YOUR GODDAMN GUN!" He didn't back down either. He truly is my favorite in this anime now.

My respects for Rock. Fucker really has some great style. The best scene was at the Church of Violence, when Revy starts fucking raging at supplies being unavailable while Rock calmly picks up the negotiations like the good salesman he is. And the way he negotiates... holy fucking shit, who could have thought that a meager Japanese office bitch could turn out to be so shrewd and so cunning?

Also, how Revy is developing. She might have grown to be tough as fucking nails, but she must learn that this is not the ghetto, this is Roanapur, in Roanapur you don't have random gangs picking random fights, you have organized crime syndicates with their agendas doing business, violence is just one part of the job instead of being everything.

Cigarette kiss notwithstanding, this was probably the second best episode so far (you can't beat the torpedoed helicopter).

Revy got development, Rock got development, there were Nuns With Guns and Rock pointed out (almost) everything wrong with Revy's character.

Good show. :)
