The Episode Review
This episode drives home John Paul’s vile nature more than ever. I think for many viewers, the way he went about getting access to Ursula’s private, intimate pictures will drive the last nail into his coffin. You can’t really blame the sisters for wanting him out of their lives- even if their methods of accomplishing this are less than reputable. ..
With Ursula getting in on the plan, the suspense intensifies in past and present timelines. Matt and Becka’s relationship is of course a worrisome development as well. Considering the way the sisters talked in the first episode, it’s safe to say that Becka later gets in on their plan. Without the knowledge that Matt is one of the nosy insurance agents, she may just compromise their shaky standing with the Claffin brothers. ..
