Dramatic AF!

Things come to a head in this episode as the three Bechley girls all come to their own crossroads. Fearing her biological clock is ticking, Juila looks into the possibility of freezing her eggs. However, things are complicated when Juila gets troubling results, and Donovan, while supportive, is reluctant to agree to father a child with her. Here. Julia gets to see what it is like to be a patient at her clinic and see things from the other side. Meanwhile, Edie is struggling to tell Tim the truth about her affair. At the same time, Roxy's addiction to painkillers hits a breaking point as she is discovered forging prescriptions, and it is up to Juila and Edie to get her to realize she needs help. We also get to learn more about Julia's relationship with Leon. This is an amazing episode, as all of the plot points the series has built up to this point come to a head. Each main character shines in her own way as they faces their own personal problems while also trying to be supportive of what their sisters are going through. You really feel like Julia, Roxy, and Edie are sisters, and they have a great dynamic and chemistry. The drama also feels very real, too. The scenes between Edie and Tim are heartbreaking and feel very real. Emily Osment also gives a great performance here. While Roxy was often used as the comic relief up to this point, it was nice to see her take center stage in a more vulnerable position. Leon is also presented as a complex character as he sees himself as a father to these girls but not their dad. Last but certainly not least is Julia. It was amazing to see the journey Julia went through in this episode. We get to see her take on a new role as she is forced to become the patient. Brittany Snow is an amazing actor, and she perfectly portrays what it is like when you have to have medical tests done and are dealing with the uncertainty of not knowing how things will turn out. Brittany Snow is my favorite actor, and this is among her best work. She is amazing in every scene. Julia's relationship with Donovan is also interesting and feels very real. There are red flags that he isn't right with her, but there are also a lot of good things about him too. You see relationships like that in real life. And the ending was amazing! I won't give anything away, but watch this show! Do it for Brittany Snow alone!
