  • An outstanding conclusion to the mystery of Amy's painful history

    I found this episode to be an excellent conclusion to the mystery around Amy's history. I for one did not expect to finally discover, after clues in past episodes, that she was not maliciously abused as a teenager, but rather went along with the abuse, even developing feelings for her abuser. Excellently done as, those who have delved into the world of psychology such as myself would know that child sex abuse is not as it seems to the untrained eye - many kids do go along with it, even liking it, such as Amy herself did. As for the episodes promos, they surely did it justice. Rachel Gordon is one of the most outstanding actors that I have ever witnessed, I believe she has a great future ahead of her. Although I'm glad she will finally be able to move past this and into more positive storylines.moreless

    • Susie: He's made a full confession. I think what you did was really brave. Amy: Brave? Susie: To face up to him. Amy: I thought everything would change, I thought I would change. Susie: Nothing's going to change right away. Amy: Maybe nothing will change at all. Maybe this is as good as it gets. Edit
