"There is an optical illusion about every person you meet." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
This single quote is enough to sum up the state of mind all the characters are in at the moment. They're all presuming to know one another, their thoughts, their feelings, or anticipated behavior, when really they don't.
There's a really simple solution to this: talk.
That's all they have to do. Calmly sit down with one another and have a civil discussion. Express their concerns, insecurities, doubts and fears. Have the other person clear out any misunderstandings and work on being better people.
Alas, the day this happens seems to be a tad bit too far.
Hope today's episode goes well. <3
