Television W/O Pity Weighs in on 6FU
"Six weeks after Nate's death, the aftermath is pretty ugly. Claire's drunk and screaming at everyone, until she drives out to Nate's grave in the middle of the night and wrecks her hearse. She's unhurt, but her car's totaled. David's stressed out, PTSD-ing all over the place, and alienating everyone around him. Rico looks about ready to bail on the whole business, possibly with Vanessa as his new partner. Maggie's leaving town, but she's got some choice words for George before she goes. One wonders if Nate would have been so into Maggie if he'd ever seen that side of her. As for me, I never liked her more. Ruth doesn't want to give Maya back to Brenda, and Late Nate, Jr.'s ghost convinces Brenda to go along. Nate also tells Brenda to marry Billy, but Brenda's highly convincing sex-dream about her brother puts an end to that idea. It also puts an end to her willingness to let Ruth keep Maya. While Ruth and Brenda are arguing in the Fisher kitchen about Maya's future, Brenda spills that Nate had sex with Maggie. And then she spills more than that, as her water breaks all over Ruth's floor, two months early (and if Brenda's that big at only seven months, then I'm three months along myself). At episode's end, Claire rides home on the bus, Keith asks David to go away for a while for the kids' sake, and Brenda struggles to give birth while the ghost of her dead husband watches. Ah, the miracle of life. Looks painful, dude."
