Fight or Flight (Big Love)

"Fight or Flight" is the seventh episode of the third season of the American drama television series Big Love.

The series charts the family's life in and out of the public sphere in their suburb, as well as their associations with a fundamentalist compound in the area.

In the episode, Bill helps Joey and Kathy with their wedding, while Margie discovers Nicki's real job.

Bill is also asked by Joey (Shawn Doyle) and Kathy (Mireille Enos) to officiate their wedding, which he accepts.

They also warn Kathy to not get other women in Juniper Creek to turn against Roman (Harry Dean Stanton), as they fear consequences for her actions.

Luke stabs Selma and steals a truck to escape, accidentally getting her ponytail trapped in the car's door.

"[3] Nick Catucci of Vulture wrote, "It was only the beginning of this season that we acknowledged — in a perfunctory, even jaded manner — that Big Love makes art of male fantasy.

This episode, Bill's sister-wives-in-law come to the fore, and even an avowed Brown Bunny fan has to see the show for what it really is: an interrogation into the compromised lives of women.

But pretty much all of it trafficked in the strange weirdness of the setting, and that kept some of the tragic things that happened at Juniper Creek from fully passing over from bizarre to truly affecting.

"[6] Eric Hochberger of TV Fanatic wrote, "Wow was last night's episode of Big Love fill with drama!

"[7] Adam Davidson submitted this episode for consideration for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series at the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards.
