Its funny that you should say Martha reminds you of Jack in this episode, because she's always reminded me of a less worldly version of him.
Thats actually how I described her personality to someone once. I said if Jack were a woman, and trapped in one place, he'd be her. And I like that. She's resourceful, and intelligent, and only limited at the moment by her own lack of knowledge.
And the whole 'I love him' thing struck a few people I know as a bit premature...but my arguement is that if someone shows you as much as he did her, and expands your horizons in such a way...would you even be able to NOT fall in love with him?
I didn't like the nurse. She reminded me constantly of a human representation of the close mindedness of the era they were in. I liked the fact that John Smith fought for his life. Goregous acting on the part of DT. If I didn't love that mans acting ability before, I would now. God that was a heart wrenching scene.
