This Stan Cutler and Martin Donovan script is somewhat of an improvement, although I was on the fence between a C+ and a B- until the reunited Jerry and Ruth did that slow-motion running towards each other thing that was then a fairly new cliche. Again, this isn't a terribly realistic episode, treating the subject of divorce as the subject of (shallow) humor. And I didn't see why Donald and Ann decide to make Ruth and Jerry jealous of non-existent Other People, when all they have to do is have Ann tell Ruth how much Jerry misses her, since Ruth had left thinking that Jerry didn't love her anymore.
