The Greyhounds are winning again!
The reason for his unhappiness is pretty obvious.
Henrys come to visit, which is great.
Michelle has brought him, which is complicated.
And Dr. Jacob (er, Jake) has come with her.
And, frankly, that sucks.
And not Paris, Texas, or any of the other ones.ParisParis.
The place, Ted jumps to conclude, Dr. Jacob will propose to Michelle.
This naturally calls for a meeting of the Diamond Dogs.
(Im her ex-husband, not her current father, so no.)
Just because Dr. Jacob took Michelle to Paris doesnt mean theyre getting engaged.
Ted has plenty of concrete concerns in his life.
He shouldnt worry about what might never happen.
Taking that advice to heart, Ted sensibly moves on for a few minutes, anyway.
There are plenty of things they could be doing besides getting engaged, including visiting Oscar Wildes grave.
But, well later learn, shes hesitant to pull the trigger.
While Ted waits, he talks to Henry about Dr. Jacob.
He learns nothing, and the next day, he and Beard decide to take Henry wherever he likes.
(Maybe the takeaway from this episode is that the British press istrulyawful.)
When Rupert suggests Ted should be banned from future games, Nate hesitates and then agrees.
Rebecca has stopped mincing words.
Ted needs to put the past behind and get on with the present.
Most immediately, he needs to go sing along to Hey Jude, which he then does.
He may not have made it better, but hes trying.
But maybe Michelle isnt entirely in his past.
Michelle gives no indication that she and Dr. Jacob are now engaged.
In fact, as he watches Henry, Michelle, and Dr. Jacob pull away, something seems amiss.
While Ted deals with his complicated personal life, Keeley begins the episode basking.
Her relationship with Jack couldnt be going better.
Theyre sleeping over regularly and making plans to go to fancy polo events.
Then a clip from Keeleys past throws a wrench in the works.
Keeley is, naturally, mortified.
Jack, however, is reassuring.
Shell take care of it.
Once they realize that Keeley is among those whove been leaked, all other arguments become academic.
Its deletion time, as Isaac emphasizes.
This extends to Colin, who moves to a private space to delete his collection.
But its not so private that Isaac, who suspects hes disobeying orders, cant find him.
After grabbing Colins phone, Isaac learns his secret and walks away.
Where this goes next is unclear.
Isaac is gruff and thinks in absolutes, but hes also been proven to be quite sensitive.
Like Colin, well have to wait to find out.
But signal after signal suggests that Jack has revealed herself.
Shes suddenly not inclined to bring Keeley to the high-society polo event.
Jack is an appreciator of the finer things in life, and Keeley has suddenly become a tainted good.
When Keeleydoesrealize Jack is ashamed of herandready to sell her out, its over.
The men Keeleys closest to both take time to seek her out and comfort her.
First, Roy approaches her in the parking lot with concern.
He says all the right things until he doesnt, asking her who the video was for.
Roy immediately recognizes his mistake and how hard it might be to talk it back.
Things have been going well with Jade since their first date.
But Nate has to wonder, is it right to say theyre progressing?
Hes not taking any chances, brushing his teeth and even showering before getting back into bed with her.
Not that, he insists, they have to put a label on it.
Ultimately, theres not a lot of drama here.
In fact, shes happy to call Nate her boyfriend.
They, at least, end the episode on an unambiguously happy note.
As happy as they may have begun the episode, the same cant be said for anyone else.
Biscuits
Heres a question: Wheres Doc?
But is Ted progressing?
But he keeps seeing hints that they might get back together.
Where the series ultimately goes with this remains to be seen.
Right now, its ambiguous whether or not were supposed to share Teds hopefulness.
English breakfast to me is just a pile with a bunch of little tiny piles.
This episode was co-written by Keeley Hazell, who also plays Ruperts wife, Bex.
Another question (and this isnt the first time its been raised): Do we like Nate?
