In a way your right, in the beginning of the series Lawrence was losing business cuz of Holo. Yes it’s Holo in the end that fixes the whole mess. Amati loses big time and gets scolded for trying to take another guys woman.
And here we are, next ep and jeez their both dense..

Lawrence isn’t the dumbass here, it’s Horo. Even Mark and his *kid assistant* have noticed that Lawrence is in love with her and not acting like himself, despite barely knowing him or her. Yet she’s around him all the time, watching him blush and overreact to her flirts, and completely misses all the obvious signs that he’s madly in love with her?

Essentially, after finally starting to watch this season I’m now very pissed off with Horo. She couldn’t even look him in the eye and give him a real apology. Her “sorry” at the end seemed sincere to me, but for her to not even stop him as he walked out of the room.. that was ice cold. It’s hard to be mad at him for leaving, because he doesn’t know anything about love, romance or women.

In fact, I’d say that the reason that Lawrence is a bumbler as a merchant is precisely because SHE is with him. I’d like to see him acting on his own for a change, because all the signs point to him always losing because he’s thinking about Horo and not himself, or because she brings out his worst qualities. And I think we’ll finally get that chance now.

The story practically writes itself now. Lawrence will have to give up on the 1000 gold, because he can’t let Amarti win. He can’t count on Horo at all, because he can’t even look at her, and because she’s lied to him and betrayed his trust. So we’ll finally get to see whether Lawrence is really such a bad merchant, because he’ll have to go it alone (because how likely is it that Horo will have the courage to face him?).

In the end, she’ll probably get mad at him for going it alone and not trusting her, but because she’s Horo she’ll still have some part to play in saving the day. After all, it’s not called Fishmonger and Wolf, so we all know that at the very least that smug jackass Amarti will lose this bet (seriously, what an overconfident punk.. makes Lawrence look like a man, and that’s saying a lot).

no he is not stupid. i think he’s more of unfortunate since there needs to be a plot and really, he’s the protagonist; he’s bound to have troubles ahead. surely he’s not God who can see through EVERY plan, there’s always miscalculations in his part. i think he’s amazing he can carry off plans and schemes like that in order to get away with the problems he’s struggling to get out of (of course with the help of Holo).

I assumed he just didn’t want to get Horo’s hopes up… although he seems to have crushed her instead.

Because he already suspected the truth and was trying to hide it from her. Although, good point, that’s stupid of him. If you know you have to tell her and are putting it off, then what could be better than having her hear it from someone else?

Was a particular reason mentioned why Lawrence didn’t take Horo with him in his investigations to the whereabouts of Yoitsu? I thought it would have been natural to have her along, and it would have avoided the major FUBAR this episode.

If Lawrence hasn’t realized how important finding her birthplace was to Horo and the underlying reasons for it by now, he truly would be an irredeemable dunce.

Well, he did manage to reach out to comfort her at the end…

Horo herself became silent as well, as if the last bit of fuel had been burned out.
After that, the silence continued for a good while. Just as Lawrence was about to reach out his hand again, Horo opened her mouth and spoke with a faint voice:
“…..Sorry.”
Slam! The deep noise flowed into Lawrence’s ears. At that moment, Horo had forcefully shut the door to her heart.

What’s a guy to do? But yeah, Horo was going hysterical. Her face when she says “I’m in human form, let’s mate” is just crazy.

Lawrence is stupid with relationships, but he couldn’t really do much else in that situation. On the other hand, he’s just plain stupid in business. God knows how he made a living all this time before he met Horo.

Ah yes I believe now is the right time to say:
HOLY !@#% ^*&$&(
I mean, I’ve felt something coming for a long time, but this was unexpected. And the mating thing sent chills up my spine. Yeah Lawrence was right to stop that. It was insane. I paused the episode right there and walked off for ten minutes because of the intensity.
Also Amati…yeah I won’t feel bad at all if/when he pays up the 1000 silver and leaves with nothing. Not considering he basically cheated the townsfolk out of it to fulfill a scheme like that.
As for Lawrence, I’m willing to cut him a little slack. Yeah he’s retarded (for one thing-always read your letters the moment they arrive. Always.), but it’s not like any of his schemes so far were horrible, it’s just that he gets shafted by bad luck for the sake of plot. And walking out is inexcusable, but justifiable-Lawrence is probably heavily shaken, and isn’t thinking right.
Final note: Lawrence>>Welkin. Still.
