Sadly what was once peak drama appears to be turning into a mixture of rushed clichés and uninteresting exposition...

Claire and Keith's storylines are both extremely vapid portrayals of sexuality (well, at least they seem to be in my opinion), with Keith's being especially frustrating given that he just gives himself up to Celeste easily knowing what David's going through and after rejecting the advances of his male co-worker previously.

The on-and-off relationship with Brenda and Nate is no longer shocking anymore but I did think the showdown with Joe and Brenda was pretty great.

Rico's storyline is quite honestly hard to care about given the character's track record and feels like something straight out of a soap opera with its big dramatic outbursts and whatnot. Justina Machado's performance as Vanessa is pretty much the highlight here.

I guess that Ruth and George's storyline is the strongest here, but I can't help but feel that George is pretty much a 'jumping the shark' kind of character. The multiple showdowns between George and Ruth were definitely my favourite parts of the episode even if the dialogue was a bit heavy handed.

I really hope that the series can regain its former glory soon before I lose interest because up until now I've been really enjoying it. There's just one more thing I want to point out - why the hell did they put piano music on Joe's music stand? Was it really that hard to find sheet music for horn? I know it's just an insignificant blunder but it is pretty noticeable as a musician myself.
