Wonderful interpretation of that scene.

One thing I really liked was in the flashback scene in Goodbye Love, when Ephram was still with Madison and Amy was still Tommy is that Amy acknowledged that her "love" for Collin was just a leftover adolescent infatuation, and she compared it to being in love with Big Bird when she was six. It showed all along that Collin wasn't the one she was meant to be with and that Ephram was her soulmate, which she realized when she snapped back to the present day.

I also like how they showed how Ephram loved her in subtle ways, like helping her fix the broken saucer and stopping her from drinking more wine at the Delia's Bat Mitzvah. Love isn't just about grand gestures; it's about the little things too.
