This is quite possibly the best episode of Girl Meets World in its first two seasons. Cory sets the class a project that encourages them to forgive someone. For Lucas it is Farkle's insistence on predicting plot points and endings for movies. Riley attempts to forgive Auggie for biting the face off of her teddy. However, it is Maya who sets herself the hardest task, that of forgiving her father for leaving when she was 5.It is this final story line that provides the dramatic weight to the episode. Sabrina Carpenter, a talented actress who shines with the most mundane of material, absolutely nails the anger, confusion and guilt of a child who has been left by a parent. One scene with Cory is the most affecting heart-wrenching scene imaginable which left me, a father of four who watches this with one of my daughters, absolutely knocked for six emotionally. It is at times like this that Girl Meets World ceases to be a great children's programme and becomes a great programme full stop
