The Lie

This episode is over plotted and soapy. Seems like too much trouble for someone Ben's age to get in. Would have made more sense to have Jason take John Boy's car. It's not all bad. Unlike the episode where Ben plays detective with John Boy's help , this time it's John Boy looking for clues. The story is too grim. And the characters don't always act in a way that makes sense. Rewrites were needed. Seems like the kind of mood the show would drift into more and more in later seasons. Seems like more of a feel good tone is needed to make these movies work. It's a wonder these boys can get married with all the bad girls they keep coming across. Then again these girls can change for the better. Thank goodness.
