This delivers - it's the 38th episode I've seen, and finally the show delivers. This one has strong emotional situations (not 'drama', since this is 'reality TV') that pull in even a viewer as frustrated on this series as me. This is an episode that matters.
But, without giving anything away, it should be noted that everything good, everything *gripping* here as opposed to the boring, endlessly self-repeating episodes that form this series, is just a blind luck. The producers and writers did not come up with the events here since they are real. These events should have, if scrutinized, taken place earlier, but since this is *real* life, the series just hammers home the fact that real people do often tend to avoid uncomfortable situations even though it would be, logically, in their best interest to face them as soon as possible. Therefore, this episode is "just" 6/10 good, not in any way great, exceptional, classic or earth-shattering.
