Drops of God: Legacy – Season 1 – Episode 6 – Recap INTRODUCTION - www.skiptvads.blog

As every other Episode, Episode Six of Drops of God is a storm of mix feelings, at times its very confuse to understand what Alexander was thinking when he thought about all this test and contest, on one side I can see him as a mad man who just want to complicate his children life’s more than it is, he never spend time with them as a father when they were adults and now that he is dead may be he came up with this contest to make their life’s miserable or he was really a philosophical guy who truly wanted to expand their knowledge and give them the opportunity to continue with his business and legacy but wanted them to be prepare for what was next.

Camille at first was the little ugly duckling, she couldn’t smell or taste alcohol but always had that hidden talent, she could turn out to be a great sommelier, she proves himself on this episode because it was not about the taste or smell of the wine, it was the experience,  during the series she and her father have mention how a wine can make you feel happy or sad, once she even said she heard music, I think that’s possible changing someone’s mood with wine or any other drink depending one what’s that make the person react is it the smell, taste or a combination of both, at the end its all a chemistry, the human body can be very impulsive and react different ways to certain combinations of flavor and smell so it was never about the fruits and flowers on the painting it was about the story behind both the painting and the wine Alexander choose to match the painting.

There is something that I should have seen coming and it was Luca interest on the Ledger Guide, on the previous episode he asks Camille to continue with it, I knew it was a great business for him but never though he was using Camille all this time just for the Ledger, I bought the story of how good of a friend he was for Alexander but the truth is that he was doing all this for his own benefit, he knew Camille had no chance against Issei so may be he thought is she wins great I get a hold at Alexander wine collection and she continues with the Ledger that was the first target but then if she doesn’t win at least get her to continue with the Ledger Guide so he can keep getting profits from the Ledger Guide also power as all the winemakers on the guide fear Alexander, at least that was the description given by Elisabetta, after the trip to Italy looking for this wine that match the flavors of the painting and understanding it was about the experience and not the flavor or smell, Camille also understood that the Ledger Guide was dangerous and hold too much power over wine makers so she didn’t want to continue it, she told Luca it was her final decision and this is when he who her his true face, got mad as fuck, yell at her, told her how he would make sure she get crush by Issei and loose, throw her out of his restaurant and show her he was manipulating her all this time.

Episodes are not more balance between Issei and Camille, at first it was all Camille but on this episode we get more drama from the Tomine Diamonds, with his father gone Issei start investigating the reasons and how his parents got together to find out his real father is Alexander, without physicals proof yet but things start to make sense so he put his mother Honka “on the horns of a dilemma” either she tells him the truth or he takes his father comb for a DNA test and figure out the truth by himself, she had to give in to keep it a secret just between them to avoid public shame since she is part of a very proud family.

Issei goes savage mode on his mother Honoka, when she asks if he have heard anything from his father he answers “the one who’s dead or the one who’s disappeared?” probably the worst slam down of all episodes so far and its not because she lied to him, this is the result of many years of resentment, the way she treat his father and him too, how cold she is all the time like she doesn’t enjoy been with any of them, this when he threat her to take his father comb for a DNA test or she tells him the truth, she didn’t have to say a word after she took the comb from his hands so its true, Issei father is Alexander.

Lucky for Issei life takes from him but also gives him happiness back, I don’t know how because I consider it too fast but may be he just like him, the way he talks, acts, cook, he has all the swag to pick up girls although Issei doesn’t talk too much but Yurika, the reporter that was covering his story now helping him to locate his father, falls for him and they match that day, it was not all dark clouds for Issei.

Camille decided to go to Italy, Milan, since the painting his father choose for the contest is from Fede Galizia, she takes Lorenzo with her and stay at a local house that servers as motel, they ask the owner Elisabetta where they could find the Galizia’s house and she answer “…fascinating, a lot to learn” like she probably knew something they didn’t, but they got no where so Elisabetta told her to be persistent, Camille didn’t mean it the wrong way but then she push wine makers into let her taste their wines using the Ledger Guide name as a method of pressure so they all accept without asking many questions. When Elisabetta find out about it she was pissed at Camille and her father, saying they were bullies using the Ledger Guide power against wine makers but their thoughts change after Camille taste Elisabetta family wine and discover the real connection between the painting and a bottle of wine, it was Elisabetta’s family wine Casa dei Fossati, it was a great story how Alexander compare Elisabetta and her father bond with Fede and her father Nunzio, this two pair of father and daughter work together to produce a master piece, one in a bottle of wine and the other on a painting.

Camille never saw this coming, she basically gets assaulted by Lucas after she insisted not to continue with the Ledger Guide, on her trip to Italy she finds out and think that the Guide have ruin many peoples life, it holds too much power probably same as his father felt there was a monopoly in France when he was trying to become a professional and exactly what force him to go to Japan to start a new market, Lucas goes all savage and tells Camille he will make sure she gets defeated by Issei but what he doesn’t know is that Issei finds out she is his step sister and that will probably bring them close and work together, Issei looks like a nice guy and honest so that’s probably how he will react when he tells Camille the truth about Alexander been their father.

Drops of God: Legacy – Season 1 – Episode 6 – Recap CONCLUSION - www.skiptvads.blog

The reason for the contest is now more clear than before with Issei confirm his father is Alexander, also the fact that Camille find out how powerful the Ledger Guide is, this was probably planned by Alexander too as its the same reason why he went to Japan and start a new market when there was a monopoly in France that would not let him grew his ideas probably he wanted his son and daughter to learn this and continue his legacy with a better direction, at first the contest look like a twisted plan to make them miserable and fight each other for a prize but now its looking like he want to bring them closer, he never had either the opportunity or the words to achieve this since he was push out by both Honoka and Marianne, Issei and Camille mothers, so he build and empire that will unite them in the future.

Drops Of God - Episode 03 Season 01 - Introduction

After on Episode 2, Camille realize what really happen when she was a child, that after all she was the one responsible for her trauma against alcohol, its true that her father shouldn’t leave her alone with wine but he did told her plus she been training for him for quite some time and was aware of the rules, she was not ready yet to drink wine and been a child she decided to try it, it was too much for her body to take it, an entire glass of wine cause her a trauma that all of the sudden seems to be overcome all because of her desire to win the contest for her father inheritance, a trauma that lasted years gone because how excited she is but I wonder if its because of the contest? the inheritance? or perhaps its because of Thomas, there could be multiple motives that take Camille to this extreme decision, I say extreme because the moment she decided to drink wine again she was exposing herself not necessarily to death but serious damage, keep in mind every time she drank wine started to bleed from her nose non stop to the point of black out, there was also pressure from Thomas and his father Phillip who kept saying that just sniffing the wine wont be enough to win this contest against Issei Tomine who was trained by Alexander himself, she is probably facing a top notch sommelier.

Now that Camille is finally tasting wine again she manage to identify the components or at least what she think the components are, at this point things are very uncertain, Camille just started tasting wine after many years of having this extreme reaction to alcohol, Camille identify the components of the wine she tasted at Tokyo as Mirabelle, blueberry, celery root, cacao, pencil, chalk, fern, clay, licorice, not a very common combination and to a certain point misleading but only Phillip knows this because he has tasted this wine before, a wine from 1986 from a Tourine winegrower called Andre Gigon who used an old grape variety no one has used since World War II, called the Lignage and he manage to both create a red and white wine who very often confuse people, Phillip and Thomas finds out all bottles were sold the last one five years ago at the time of the series at the modes price for $10k per bottle, Camille don’t have that amount of money to spend on a bottle even if she cold find one so Thomas takes the drastic decision to take Camille and pay a visit to Andre but they went bankrupt in 1996 so who knows if they still have any bottles around.

Thomas and Camille make the trip to find Mr. Andre Gigon, when they arrive their was no vineyard, after all they went bankrupt so it was all gone, Camille and Thomas had some time to chit chat during on their way to Mr. Gigon and out of no where Thomas asks Camille if she is seen some one, I think this question confuse her, to this point of the series its no secret she likes him but they haven’t had that alone moment to clear things out. When they arrive Mr. Andre Gigon was old and his son live with him, they seem to be alone and accept to talk to Camille, Gigon’s son talks a bit about how they knew using old grapes that no body knew about was key for the wine to be successful but they were a small company with limited budget for marketing and they didn’t produce large volume neither, at first selling bottles for 40 franks to latter on find out that the last bottles were sold for $10k USD a mind blowing reality, been successful but just too late for them, he and his father had to sell everything to pay debts and close the company. This trip was not so useful for Camille her success on the contest but at least she was explained that from the same vintage they could make either red or white wine meaning both having same aromas despite the color something that may confuse people and Gigon’s son also gave her a hint that the bottle she was probably looking for could be a Lignage, vintage 1987.

One Episode 1 Camille was not ideally pleased of how Luca receive her, he pick her up from the airport on a small white cargo bus and she judge him by his car but now she knows Luca is a baller, big boss restaurant owner but wont “open a bottle worth 12,000 euros just for could be” but Miyabi had an idea of who could open that bottle and then Camille would have to hustle out her way to taste this wine, one of Luca big customer is has reservation for that night and he is known to close deals every time he arrives so he has no weakens to spend large on wine, but the problem for Camille is that Mr. Matsubara never leaves a single drop behind, they going to offer him the bottle and if he agrees then at least Camille will have the chance to figure out how to taste it, Luca will have the bottle send out from Osaka to Tokyo and ready for Mr. Matsubara.

Miyabi who is Lucha Sommelier and Lorenzo his nephew are put in charge of Camille, to “train” her on how to serve the wine and take care of the table for the night without knowing they were wasting her time, Camille was told this ritual by his father when she was eight years old putting them to shame, what a troll Camille can be some times.

The night comes, Mr. Matsubara arrives with his client and Miyabi who is Luca Sommelier introduce Camille as the one in charge to serve Mr. Matsubara wine for the evening, everything goes according to the plan, from now on Miyabi and Lorenzo became part of Camille team to find this mysterious wine she tasted once for the competition, Camille was able to sneak a single drop of Mr. Matsubara wine but it was not, the bottle Luca had was 1990 and Mr. Gigon’s son told her she was looking for a 1987 which could make all kind of difference, Camille start feeling desperate feeling all her effort is a waste of time but then again Thomas comes to the rescue.

Remember this TV Series is based on the popular manga of the same name, at times the decisions and actions that characters take feel like out of a manga, some of them very extreme and laughable at, all it took for Thomas to go to Tokyo is heard Camille sad about the contest over the phone, was as when they went to visit Mr. Gigon for a $10k bottle, he took off with Camille like it was nothing.

Luca gave Camille full access to his cellar without limits to take and taste what ever bottle of wine she needs to and win the contest.

From now on we will see more of Lorenzo and Miyabi, a love story out of a manga, how silly Lorenzo is when it comes to Miyabi and how she clearly feels for him, starting to laugh at the silly lovely things he does for her like in this case they are at a Karaoke drinking to free their mind and help Camille, basically taking the rest of the night off and a break for this quest they are part of now.

Camille keeps getting this mix signals from Thomas, like when he ask her if she is seen someone, taking her to potentially buy a $10k wine bottle and now taking a flight to Tokyo just to help her, I think for at least 70% of human population that’s been way too helpful if there is not some kind of interest or benefit from this contest, besides Thomas is not getting anything from Alexander inheritance so why put so much effort on helping Camille?, he gets a called from his girlfriend and goes out of the bar to talk to her, didn’t look too excited to talk to her, while watching a rusty bike an idea came to him, it was not celery root what Camille taste it was the oxidation of the wine, they were totally off.

After spending the rest of the night trying to find that single bottle of wine it came to Lorenzo, the wine they looking for has to be a great wine over 2006, oxidation is key and only two wines with this characteristics could be the one Camille is looking for but Lorenzo said it would be better to identify what makes them different, its either a Cheval Blanc with classic maturation on new barrels or The Vega Sicilia Unico staying for at least six years in oak old barrels, so she basically screwed without the correct wine and trying to identify this on the fly, with no where to go or ask the day of the contest comes and Camille had it, Cheval Blanc 1999 but at the last minute change her mind for 2000, its worth mentioning that it took Issei just a few minutes to identify the correct wine and didn’t hesitate, he is well trained and has been constantly tasting wine for all those years that Camille didn’t, she could be talented but experience is on Issei side, although his family is not supporting him at all on this quest except his father, that side of the story for me is still not relevant enough but on next episodes its a side story that starts to pick up.

Drops Of God - Episode 03 Season 01 - Conclusion

So far this series is proven to have an awesome story, the manga is so popular so I was not expecting less than this, the story is getting better and better, seems like its that time of the year where very few action TV Series are release and most are drama series, Issei story so far is not that relevant but its starting to be, for now all I know is that his family is rich, he doesn’t want anything to do with it and its trying to create his own company as a great Sommelier. As I mention the story does have that funny way of doing things, where characters take crazy last minute decisions without thinking much about consequences and been able to leave everything behind.
