I mentioned this in another comment, but Diane fired the intern because she was making a scene. She wanted attention, and was making the tragedy about her. Diane ain't got time for that.

I thought they might be setting up a plot down the line. Damian is stealing clients? Sounds like something Diane should check on.

Oh, gee, she was AWFUL. One great thing about Will's death: no more Crazy Baby Lady.

Not really. I think she was an attention hog who wanted to make the tragedy about her. That's why Diane fired her.

The Kings are waaaaay too invested in the Will/Alicia pairing. I couldn't care less about them together.

Eli and Lee were both used super-well in these episodes. They are the ones who have most sacrificed their personal feelings for business, and that weirdly makes them the most useful in times of crisis like this.

Maybe. I'll have to rewatch The Next Day once this season is over, because Baranski is fierce in that one too. Remember the restroom breakdown?

I also like that she had no real answers. It has always been difficult having her as the show's go-to Christian, since she's only a teenager and a recent convert, so she isn't a good representative for Religion. But that wasn't a situation for someone to give a thoughtful reflection on theodicy. She just wanted to…

Hm. It now occurs to me that this Mortal Kombat reference may be in poor taste. My bad. I come only to praise Diane's badassery, even in mourning.

There were a lot of great scenes in this episode, but I want to call out the morgue scene in particular. The decision to show Will's body either far-away and obscured or in super-tight closeups (his mouth, his eye) was genius. The whole episode is about the characters dealing with his absence for the first time, and…

"Flawless victory, FATALITY!" <— me, seconds after the ex-client leaves Diane's office.

I was about to respond that Zeek and Camille are the go-to babysitters, but we know for a fact they were snuggling by the fire pit alone.

Miles and Sara too? Yikes. Well, I guess being stuck on a set all day together could lead to some variant of Stockholm syndrome.

I would like to nominate the Amber/Drew duet for Creepiest Parenthood Scene Ever. Not only did we see them get way too physical in their affection, but we had to listen to Drew sing at the same time. (Is this "cringe comedy"? Is this what Girls is like?)

I definitely heard "peed in" something. Canteen makes sense. But that is what destroyed Adam and Kristina, and understandably so. When Monica Potter unbuckled and went into the back seat to hug Max, it was one of the most affecting bits she has done this season.

You know the most annoying thing about Parenthood? Its Twitter feed. I know it's someone's doubtlessly thankless job, but really, they began tonight's episode with: "Watch. Cry. Love. #Parenthood starts NOW!"

Yes, that was Brooke Dillman. She's done a handful of cameo roles for Bob's Burgers. No matter what else she does, I will always remember her as the wacky "weather-nun" on the terrible sitcom "Good Morning, Miami."

I think that's where we're headed, yes. I think they only resorted to the security cam footage because Will said all the right things. (I kind of wonder if the writers have been too heavy-handed on this foreshadowing, though, since that same guy tried to entrap Eli last week.)

Huh: all four of Sonia's TGW reviews have been in the A range. I loved this episode too, but I wonder if she's going Sava on us.

In Alicia's mind, Jackie is Freddy Krueger.
