Every episode of this show leaves me with mixed feelings to sort out.I can honestly say that I think Melinda disgusts me, completely. This is where the conflict starts to happen. I think Bruce is disrespectful and sad, but I don't have the disgusted feeling with him as I do with Melinda. Maybe because I am a woman, and I hate seeing women do this to each other. Maybe because Melinda can choose to remove herself from the situation instead of enticing and bringing attention to herself. I am not sure. I do think that both of their actions to this point are deplorable, and not only disrespectful of Susan and Bruces marriage but also disrespectful of the children involved.
That brings me to Susan. I think she is battling with her feelings for Roger, and fighting those feelings every step of the way. I said during the first show that I thought Bruce was in love with Susan, by the way he was staring and waving at the car. What I am questioning with Susan, is she holding off because she values her friendship with Janet so much that she doesn't want to jeopardize it or because she wants to stay faithful to her husband. I think it may be both, but I wonder if either bond is enough to keep her from doing something I am sure she will regret in one fashion or another.
Which brings me to Tom and Trina. Was that a little bit of disdain that was on Trina's face when she realized what happened the night before. When she first woke up, in bed with the other couple and Tom, I didn't think she looked to pleased and am wondering if she was thinking about their marriage being closed and how she might not have opened it if they had not been drinking.
Then there is Janet. I really am enjoying her spreading her wings a little. I am wondering what she will choose to do if Roger decides to take the job in Ohio. Will she go? Will she stay to have a career? Will they stay together?
I really like this show and it (for me) poses a lot of lingering questions at the end of almost every episode.
