Loveday Writing

Once again we are provided with a distinct time setting for the episode–ANZAC Day. Therefore four months have passed since the events of the first episode.

Similar to the previous episode, this one is progressing the season but still feels like a filler, it’s a set up for the story arcs of the final two episodes.

The highlight of this episode for me was the Patty subplot. I liked the writers’ choice to focus on her character development since the stillbirth. She has really grown as a character and I love the irony that Patty of all of the girls is the face of Women’s Lib (Shirley’s description) and found a career. One slight let down is the obvious outcome that Patty would take on babysitting as a career due to the babies constant presence in the episode.
