Maybe it was all so AP could writhe around in the Holy Hot Tub?

The whole Dark Quickening thing... something I've been meaning to ask, because I no longer remember. Is it canon that Daruis becoming a good guy was due to a "Light Quickening"? I knew once, but now I don't. Brain's getting old :)

Yes, I was thinking of the Quickening that Darius took that made him "good," and also of the fact that Duncan is supposedly helped to turn back to goodness when he takes Sean's Quickening. Why do some Quickenings transfer goodness or evil, while others don't? It is confusing to me.

I think "Light" and "Dark" Quickenings have to do with the magnitude of the Quickening. The Dark Quickening that Duncan suffers in the episode was made up of all these evil Immortals, while an usual Quickening from an evil Immortal would presumably have innocent and "good" Quickenings inside it as well. Does that make sense?
