As is often the case these days, this episode is a mixture of the enjoyable and the frustrating.Even though Brax's intentions are good, he's so smug in his scene with Morag you want to punch him anyway. Leah's blind support of him is annoying and the scene of him turning up at Ruby's house, uninvited and unwanted, and declaring she's family as if it's a compliment rather than a stigma is wrong on every level imaginable.At least the show resists the temptation to have Ruby won over by his rhetoric;her walking away from him(and indeed, her walking away from him a few weeks ago)should be the end of it.
The other story lines centring around the Walkers see some nice interaction between April and Xavier and between Dexter and Sasha, despite Sasha being given a truly dreadful "movie star" makeover for her party.Unfortunately, we are then treated to more unwanted match-making from Colleen and a cringe-worthy slow motion fantasy sequence of Dexter ogling April.
The highlight of the episode are the sequences between Romeo and Indi, which are pleasingly devoid of melodrama.Romeo's quiet observation that they married too young could see their marriage end with a whimper rather than a bang and is all the more powerful for it.
