And that's how the ending with Bedelia struck me as well, but apparently Bryan Fuller was surprised that so many of us interpreted it that way, it was supposed to come across as she had been captured and was terrified, although I really don't get that from Gillian's performance
It really was the first thing that Went through my mind- she has cut off her own leg!
I followed your link in the comment and read the interview. I never thought about Bedelia being captured by someone else, but that is of course a possibility. I know Fuller wanted to include Hannibal's uncle but he wanted Max von Sydow who wasn't available right then.
I know Brian Fuller is going to make Neil Gaiman's American Gods now, and I look forward to it. I love the book and after watching Hannibal I really want to see what Fuller makes of it!
