Yeah, the beating was terrible. She never apologizes either. And also, the part where she's invisible, and is trying to fuck him, and he's like, "No, really, stop." and then she's invisibly giving him a blowjob, and he's like, "Oh, that's unfair." But that's funny, right? UGH.

I thought they had a very equal relationship of fucking each other up in dysfunctional s&m-y ways, and I LOVED IT. (They are totally my favorite canonical couple). That's why I thought Seeing Red cheaped out -- it suffered from the Harry Potter problem of "well, when the hero does it, it's okay" and added an extra dollop of "when a girl does it, it's okay" that really bugged me.
