As Oliver said, this episode's writing was up to par with a lot of earlier episodes, but much better than what we've been seeing lately. That is, unless that one comment Lauren made wasn't meant to make us interpret her character as "blathering fool", or unless they are up to something with it. Either way, boo.

Hmm, that's currently four books on the "must read this now" list from you. I'll get to them, starting with The Once and Future King.
