Hahaha I feel like the fact that I shipped them has cursed them in the show...sorry guys. It's like this for every couple I ship (Veronica/Logan was like 16 out of 64 episodes and don't get me started on Pacey/Joey). I've just come to expect this from writers now. It seems the formula is "the more epic the relationship=the more drama and less screen time it gets)". We'll probably get a few more breakups between the two of them. I can't imagine Emmett being happy that Bay told Tank about her health concerns before him.

On a more episode specific commentary: I love the return to Tank/Bay friendship. I totally love them as friends. Lilly and Toby seemed too rushed to me. I don't think it was really realistic for either characters. It felt like the writers were screaming "believe in their chemistry...believe it!" And sorry, I don't believe it. On another note, I think I would have liked a little more time with J&K. All of their kids are floundering now and that's got to be hard. They must be trying to figure out what to do to help. I imaging they're feeling helpless. *sigh* And then when they find out about Bay's appointment--if she doesn't tell them first--they'll feel even worse. On that subject, I'll be a bit annoyed if Bay gets right in to see the doctor...that never happens. And if this doctor is a specialist, I highly doubt her parents' insurance will be too happy (she needs a referral)...but maybe I'm getting too realistic. But this is what parents are for! To help children navigate the terribleness that is the healthcare system!

Final note: The preview for the next episode was crazy.
