Californication 6.12 Review: I'll Lay My Monsters Down

Hank is torn over whether or not he should go on tour with Faith and Atticus, or stay in California and try and reunite with Karen. He arrives at Marcy's where she is showing off her wedding dress to Karen, and asks Karen's opinion on whether or not he should go. Understandably she tells him that they're no longer a part of each others lives and for Hank to consider her in his plans is redundant. Marcy is sad that they haven't reunited, explaining to them that her time in California has being one long mid-crisis but that she's tired of being unhappy all the time which is why her and Charlie are getting back together. On Atticus's plane, Atticus convinces Hank that if the two of them finish he musical on the tour hopefully the two of them will find love. Atticus's concert is undoubtedly crass, as we all knew it would, including a song called 'Right Between The Thighs'. He marries Charlie and Marcy on stage, and asks anyone else if they would like to get married. Hank proposes to Karen but she just smiles at him before Atticus asks everyone to leave the stage. I would say this is the smartest decision Katen has ever made in regards to her relationship with Hank, but the result remains to be seen until next season. Hank leaves with Atticus and Faith because of Karen's rejection, but while asleep on the tour bus he realises he has to go back for her. Faith is sad that Hank is leaving, but completely understands, as does Atticus. Crow drives Hank back to Karen's and the episode ends with him knocking on her door. A pretty uneventful episode for a season final, but it successfully wrapped by Atticus's and Faith's story lines while most obviously preparing for next season.

Rating: 3/5
