Yes, Three Miners From Everwood really engaged me, but this one didn't as much, but I think that a lot of it was due to Madison not being in the last episode and her being prominently featured in this one.

That's awesome that you know so much about this. I've seen the actor who played Phil in a lot of different things, including commercials for Farmers Insurance.

I think that Andy saw the car as a safe car for Ephram as it was big and built like a tank. I think that was his main concern.

Blown away no matter how many times I watch this gifted actress on the screen. When Amy tells Linda she wanted to feel nothing it was heartbreaking. I simply do not understand how the family is filled with healthcare professionals plus Andy and they cannot help Amy sooner. This is amazing to me. Amy is literally drowning and no one is throwing her a life preserver. Linda is into alternative medicine, so she has to understand the body/mind connection. That's one of the biggest themes of alternative medicine, especially meditation. She is also an MD. She is also her aunt. I do not understand how that comment alone wouldn't send an urgent concern that her niece needs help immediately. So very weird how Amy just exists as a shell, her Soul is not even functioning yet everyone passes by her like they don't see her. It is heartbreaking.
Emily did an incredible job as Amy. She really depicted someone who's so lost and like you said literally drowning. I couldn't believe how Harold reacted to her condition and that Linda also seemed to ignore how depressed she was.

That storyline really was incredible and Debra Mooney and Marcia Cross did an incredible job in their scenes together.

Yes, this was one of the tougher episodes for me to watch.
