I really love this show for all the humor. This episode was an emotional one with great acting by Mallory (Justine Batemen). You can really live into the moment and for sure if you have have come into a similar situation. Even though it was emotional, they still got a lot of humor into the episode without ruining the actual story as a whole.

I especially liked the conversation about God. It was a much more open view than we see in the media these days. It shows that 40 years later, society has regressed back into a much more conservative and divided view on religion and beliefs. This is the case in many of these episodes.
