This episode has everything: pelvic floor exercises, a rekindled romance, and Mary the church gossip possibly discovering bisexuality.
After weeks of buildup, Leanne and Andrew finally kiss, but only after Leanne breaks up with him, panics, takes advice from Carol, watches Mary get wine-drunk, and realizes she’s been afraid of moving on. Meanwhile, Mary confesses her loneliness, Carol gets honest about aging, and Tyler gets unexpectedly smooched by Mary after a good deed.
There’s a real heart to this one. It’s a reminder that healing after heartbreak doesn’t happen in a straight line. It’s awkward, emotional, and completely charming. Also, yes, Carol doing pelvic floor exercises on the porch with Leanne is an image I will never forget.
