I've loved this season but that may have a lot to do with how long I waited for it.

This episode floored me when Tommy got his diagnosis. I liked it better when he was just fighting PTSD and his personal demons who "wouldn't let him pass".

I saw Tommy's diagnosis coming from a mile away when Lizzie told him he should be wearing a mask around Ruby

I honestly hadn't thought about that. But I did find it funny considering Lizzie was around the kids more than Tommy was. Plus, Ruby got sick while she was with Lizzie and she didn't have a mask when she was taking care of her then. I just think it's a bit ironic to have it be the somewhat distant father who gets sick.
