General -In general this episode was lacking for the greatness of some of the episodes before us. It was a more like a slow paced episode to bring us back into the topics. Next week's episode seems like it will pick up the pace.

Jack/Katie - At first I was upset with Katie. The FWB act is not something I agree with. I'm glad that Jack didn't really like it all that much either. If you can't have all of someone then why bother? Jack messing around with Missy is less then something I would have liked to see him do. However, their feelings still run strong no matter even if he sees it or not. When he was talking to Katie and she told him she mad it up. I felt with the weight of his mistake with Missy. He thought Katie was out doing the same thing and was feeling a kind of need for vengence IMO. Now, he feels like an ass. This can't lead anywhere good between Katie and Jack. She was thinking he might be different from most guys and now... she might see him as being the same.

Marcus/Courtney -He likes her and she likes him. That has been proven tonight. However, Marcus followed the code. He is a true friend refusing to answer that question and slow down the friendship because of Jack. Marcus, is one of the best characters on the show. I'm glad that he is being given more time to show that to the fans.

Grace -I felt bad for her but I think her mentor had a point. She needs to be out there and put herself out there. Become someone of such a great character that no-one would even think to bring the "affair" into it.

Jack/Bobby -Jack was hurt by Bobby, trying out for track and lashed out.. both typical and realistic. In the end, his mother the person he dislikes the most...showed him the lights. Jack better learn to start appreciate the fact that his mother shows him the light. She has moved him and helped him become this fine human being. I wish he would see that. However, he won't what teenager really does see that in their parents?

Missy - She has been growing in this episode somewhat. Being less of a air-head that some thought she was. She is growing up and in fact seeing things in a clearer light. Did she do a wrong for C/M? Maybe... Courtney never told her who and Jack was bound to see things IMO. She just made them come sooner... As for her and Jack. She wants Jack and also wanted to feel something in that episode. She is lost with was said with her group meeting...
