Ric and Mattie continue to skirt around their problems but at least they're talking and trying to approach things in the right manner. Mattie has some nice father/daughter scenes with Tony, a relationship that tends to get neglected, and Ric is honest with Alf.Fingers crossed that their plans succeed because these two deserve to be together.
Which brings us to Belle and Aden.The actors are trying their best but it seems to have come out of nowhere and it's hard to invest in.Aden seems vulnerable, almost needy, around Belle but then he's back to being aggressive not long after.Their relationship seems a bit uneven as Aden expects her to be honest with him when he won't pay her the same courtesy.And spilling Larry's secrets after she's agreed to keep quiet is a somewhat dubious decision.All the episode proves is that Aden and Nicole have a much better chemistry and why the writers haven't persevered with that relationship I don't know.
