Provost Scully fails to make call boy Dale admit he spilled the beans on their affair. Ethan feels trapped by Vivian but dares not provoke her father. Frustrated over his erectile 'failure', chronically sleepless Austin starts an affair with the provost's wife, Margaret Scully. A week in Florida fails to appease Libby, who sends William back home as he only had eyes and ears for senior room neighbors with a surprisingly vivid sex life. Back home, Virginia convinces him also to examine the love-factor. —KGF Vissers

Feud in the hotseat

New possibilities arise from out of the ashes of failed relationships; 'Brave New World' offers new paths for both Scully's wife and Masters, and there's a ray of light amid the sorrow in both cases. This episode strikes a nice balance between the two, and natural character growth is just fun to watch.. Especially between Masters and Virginia; not just because a new sexual dimension is added to their relationship, but because she's finally moving up in stature. She's not a physician, but still deserves recognition of what she brings to the table. And I have to admit, it's kind of exciting when she can impress her highly educated boss.
