Lena has said the storyline wraps next week; the last episode is more of an epilogue.

I enjoyed the misdirection. It is also made sense for the characters and how they've developed.

I wonder how much we will see of him next week, or the other male characters for that matter. Seemed like a tidy way of showing that Adam & Hannah are over and each have moved on.
I'm guessing this one coming up will focus on the four girls, circling back to the main characters from the early seasons.
This season hasn't been as good as last. Not that this one hasn't been good but more so that the last one was great.

I loved the twist of Ray going out with and actually liking Shosh's ex-coworker. That was hilarious.

:thumbsup: He's the best part of the whole series, I think. It's been great to watch him transition from judgmental and earnest to someone more open-minded and vulnerable.
yeah, he's by far my favorite character

the best part about last night's episode was

I thought the scene was excellent and felt real. It didn't make me like Hannah, but it humanized her.


I just hope the show doesn't end with an 'It takes a village..." moment.
