It was a change not seeing Beth in the episode, but it was nice to see her doing stuff with the kids. I think she "couldn't get a set on the plane" for a reason. The bonding was nice. I enjoyed getting the full story behind Leland and Dog coming together. Leland was a troubled kid just like them all, and Dog showed him the way. Too bad not all parents will do what Dog did.

Overall, this was a great episode with two fugitives going down nice and easy. One of the fugitives came to them, they went to the other.

At the end seeing Leland with his son was great he is a good Dad...I enjoyed this show....and I have to say Beth looked great without all the makeup and crap ..she looked like a wife and mother ...she should do that more.moreless
