This episode is all about Diwali and breakdowns in communication. I’m going to review this episode character by character. Harry – As Harry narrates and is a major focus of the episode, I’m going to start with him. Harry explains that he used to be obsessed with Diwali as a child, however as he grew older, specifically in his 20s,

This episode focuses on two rather than all five characters. I’ll also be reviewing this episode character by character. Ben and Liz – As they were the main focus of the episode, I’ll kick off the review with them. Ben is narrating about the gang’s “contributions” to his renovations of the soon-to-be nursery, which includes Heather being turned on by

Now that the premiere has come and gone, we can get underway with the story arcs and subplots. This episode has Ainsley narrating and mostly focusing on her gender reveal party. I’m going to continue to review this episode character by character. Ainsley – As this episode mostly focuses on her, I’ll start with her. The episode kicks off with

I’m going to review this season premiere character by character. Liz – I’m going to start with Liz as she narrates the episode. The episode kicks off with the gang at their 25th open house and registering as bidders to buy, only for Liz to walk away shortly before the auction starts when she sees her ex-husband, Stuart (Rodger Corser)

I will be reviewing this episode character by character. Ainsley and Lachlan—As Ainsley realised that she might be

The episode kicks

Now that all of the main characters have narrated at least one episode, I wondered whether the writers would continue with a rotating narrator, and if so, who they would go with? Would they keep the same rotation and start all over again with Ainsley? The answer to my two questions was yes and no. Yes, the rotating narrator would

As everyone else has told their story, so to speak, it didn’t surprise me that this episode switched the narrator to Harry and focused on him. This episode mainly focuses on Harry’s tug of war between wanting to be with Pete and coming out to his mother. Harry and Pete manage to have a great second date and hook up,

In this episode, the narrator is switched to Liz and focuses on her life, or rather the fact that it is spiralling out of control. Liz talks about her life in her old, predictably large house, and then compares it to life in the house with the others. When she comes home from work, Harry tells her they’ve been robbed

As I predicted in my review of the previous episode, this episode switches the narrator to Ben and focuses on him. The gang have been living in the house together for a couple of months now and Ben’s behaviour—specifically his apparently slow pace of getting the house painting finished, sending his tradie mates to Harry for skin checks, and his
