B
This might be the best episode of the season, although not quite a B+. It's very funny, insightful, and even at times sexy (though a sexiness played for laughs). In this Mark Driscoll story, both Ellen and Audrey are having erotic dreams about Adam, but Audrey has a crush on Adam and ends up seducing him, while Ellen ends up seeing a therapist, Dr. Whitcomb (Paxton Whitehead in his first of three appearances in the role). Adam has Ellen pretend to be his girlfriend, after he regrets giving in to Audrey, and of course Ellen's visiting mother is thrilled that Ellen has finally found a man. (Mrs. Morgan seems to like Adam a lot more than she likes Paige.) Ellen and Adam do end up kissing (for the first time in twelve years), a light kiss to make Audrey happy and then a deeper kiss after Audrey leaves. And yet, Adam and Ellen feel no sparks. So I guess it's not a sailable ship. But, yeah, it's fun watching Arye Gross get to make out so much.
