I hadn't thought about Lucas possibly telling Deb about Dan, but I really liked that route. Who better to confide in than someone who's sort of crazy and really knows Dan? It actually made sense, especially since Deb knows what might have motivated Dan to shoot Keith.

I also like that Deb took care of telling Nathan. That would've been really difficult for Lucas to do, and with the stress of his mother's health and his new sister, it was nice of Deb to take on that burden for him. She was surprisingly responsible in this episode. I loved how much she was there for Lucas.
