This was a fascinating episode that finally gave the audience some insight into the critical time period of the weeks before Coco's suicide. Kudos to the casting and acting talent. Elle Fanning and Colton Ryan are perfect, and I'm always impressed watching the talents of Chloe Sevigny and Norbert Leo Butz. But it's the writing and direction here (particularly in this episode) that make it so special. The teen mental health issues depicted in this episode for both main characters are written with sensitivity and and truthfulness. You really get a sense of their pain. The only distraction sometimes is wondering what parts are the "real" documented facts and what is speculation. But it's so well written and acted that it really doesn't matter. My thanks to all the creative team for taking a thoughtful and serious look at a subject that would have been so easy to depict in an exploitive and sensational way. I greatly look forward to the remaining episodes.

Filler episode; Entirely skippable

There is little to none in the way of new developments that happen in this episode. As is quickly becoming the norm with new mini-series across all streaming platforms, much of this episode is little more than filler to pad out the total number of episodes.
There is no need for this episode

I am not sure if I will keep watching as the 20/20 pretty much covered all there is to know. I do adore Elle Fanning and truly only watched since she is the lead.
This episode offers nothing new, it's just more of the same here.
I am surprised this show hasn't already been wrapped up.
And with two more episodes, it seems to dwell too much on such a very sad subject.
