A good episode. A sad ending for Emmett and George. Was great to see them going on their trip and having an adventure in the bathroom and than such a horrific ending. Interested to see what will happen to Emmett after this and how he will deal with it

Good story about Debbie and Michael. Her finally getting into dating was very sweet, and it was great to see them understanding how they are both judging the partner choice of the other while being upset when it is done to them. I am sure many didn't like Michael because of it since Debbie was single for so long and took care of him, so this may come off as selfish. But this story was clearly written as a lesson to Debbie's character for understanding that she is not fair to Ben.

And I believe it was the first time we saw Justin on top of Brian. I can see this being a symbol of a change in their relationship and am looking forward to see more.

"Do you have anything on you?" "Yeah, sixteen pounds of cocaine and twenty-four ounces of heroine." "This is no time to be funny." "Who's being funny?" ~Ted and Brian

This episode was heartbreaking, revealing, and fantastically written. Every minute of it was drenched in drama of one sort or another, and at the end of everything was the utterly perfect ending of the episode in which Justin and Brian make love in an entirely different way. Their relationship is the show's best and most appealing aspect, and as of yet it hasn't managed to disappoint me even for a second. It's full of shocks and surprises, and I love all of the developments between the two characters. It was also very sad how things ended between George and Emmett, and I really enjoyed their brief relationship. Michael's quarrel with his mother also served as some interesting basis for this episode, although I want more of the Michael/Ben relationship (we haven't gotten nearly enough of it for the last few episodes!) Overall a very solid offering and a great episode.
