Memory palace is dope as fukk. Great way to make the locked up Hannibal unique. Hes still hosting dinner parties and living life as far as he's concerned. Plus it keeps Hannibals suits in play
I'm actually slightly confused about his cell. Is he really in a plain white cell like in "Manhunter," but just imagining that its decorated the way we see it on camera?
I also thought it was kind of weird that they let him have a pencil. Don't they know WHO they have? Everyone in this hospital seems much less scared of Hannibal than in any other version of this story (and much less scared than they should be.)
Slightly off topic:
I watched today's episode back-to-back after watching "Manhunter" today. While watching Manhunter, I thought "Isn't that Frankie Faison from The Wire and Banshee?" So, I looked him up in IMDB:
Frankie Faison - IMDb
Turns out, Frankie Faison has been in:
Manhunter,The Silence of the Lambs,Hannibal,AND Red Dragon
They need to get him on the TV show, just to make it complete.
