Yes, *excellent* ep. I particularly liked Gwen's growth during the ep; it always bugged me that she'd been a police officer, apparently for some while, in a town that was *not* Mayberry, & yet had managed not to learn that some things just can *not* be "made right", try as you might. Also liked getting a glimpse of the sheer size & complexity of the job Jack's carrying on his back; he puts up a damn good front, but I think I detected the tiniest hint of desperation in the conference scene when he told Gwen he really would like an better alternative to how he'd been handling the matter of the grabby Rift. (& I wonder, considering the other glimpses of Jack's past, if that facade is something he assumed at an early age.)

Rhys's good sense & (underrated) intelligence shone in this ep., so did Nikki, the entirely ordinary woman coping bravely & resourcefully with her trauma. The scenes of the people coming to the recently formed support group & those of the "nursing home" for the Rift-snatched were heartbreakingly realistic.
