Oh god that scene with Rupert on the couch with his dad was straight out of Breaking Bad haha, all in all this is a really good episode setting up the rest of the season or sadly and unfortunately the series. The tremendous character plot lines and interactions keep growing as the plot thickens, what I love about this show is that each episode truly fills like its own story. I am only on this episode but I cannot wait to see how it ends. Shawn is a great character story, Julian has grown on me throughout the shows run. Leanne is an ever growing mystery which is exciting to be solved and Dorothy is so fascinating as she changes between hero and villain.

The biggest problem the show has is that the majority of Conflict and Mystery could be explained if people just had real conversations and it is on FULL Display in this Episode. The brief dialogue between the characters of 2-3 Statements from each person with the discussion getting interrupted (by some outside interference) is a basic trick that the show uses way too often. Do the showrunners not know that you actually have to have a PAYOFF to long teases of frustration? OR are they scared because they know the entire show would end if everyone sat down and had a hour-long conversation where they could ask and answer questions?

I won't go into spoilers, but this episode's description is "Leeane Torments Dorothy" and you really have to wonder if that's true when you watch it? Leanne spends the episode trying to take care of Dorothy. Dorothy is the one who keeps abusing Leeane when she tries to legitimately help her. Leeane eventually has to be upfront with Dorothy and states "I'm all you've got" and that's supposed to be sinister, but its actually TRUE because all the characters are Selfish Sociopaths except for Leeane. Also, the "conflict" of this episode leads to a hilarious climax that is supposed to be serious.

Sadly, even Rupert Grint couldn't salvage this one.
