Everyone's talking about how funny it was to see Hannibal pining so much after Will didn't show up for his therapy, but may I also draw your attention to the fact that literally the second Hannibal saw Will wasn't there, Requiem started playing? This is the most melodramatic thing I've ever seen. Will didn't show one (1) time and Hannibal was already channelling a widow in mourning. This show is pure comedy gold.
