I loved that episode so much! As you said, the confrontation between Uther and Arthur was such a great scene.
However, Morgana's half sister? I would have kind of liked if they made her what she is in "canon", Igraine's sister.
True, it would have made more sense and would have been more powerful if they had added the family angle to the Arthur/Morgause interaction. Maybe they did it so that they could give another good reason for Morgana to go dark side?
And he does so willingly because he knows anything else would destroy Arthur. Oh man, my heart was breaking there for the both of them.
Merlin's unshed tears when Arthur thanks him for reminding him that magic is evil? So perfectly done.
