The performances in this show just keep getting better and better as not only Sam and Allen's relationship, but every character's relationship, evolves.
While many people begin to progress emotionally through therapy on some level, this episode shows just how psychologically paralyzed Sam is. Despite Allan's best efforts, Sam's habitual anger and insecurity always push their way past any progress he makes. This is particularly obvious through Sam's terrible attempts and humor and meaningful socializing, even with those he loves.
Seeing the impacts Allan has made on not only Sam but Ezra in this episode truly shows how even the smallest gestures or comments can affect a person. Loving the continued interactions with Charlie and the references to Viktor Frankl.
