Sarah and Scott

[Nickifan]

Scott was spot on while comforting Sarah, admitting that the two of them never really discussed the loss of their own baby - and inviting her to talk through it privately with him. Very mature, and very strong connection. Great writing!

I agree. I hope Bill noticed how well Scott handled the situation, and how tenderly he treated his wife.

I enjoyed that entire scene. Barb and Bill storming in and informing Sara of what she would do. Then, Scott gets home and they start telling him to tell Sara what to do. Scott, showing maturity beyond what Bill seems to have, informs him that he and Sara do not have the kind of marriage where he dictates to Sara what she will and won't do. Then, he pulls her to the side and discusses with her, privately, what is really going on. Very well handled.

I do wish I could edit a post after submitting it. Oh well. This is still ten times better than HBO.


I am really liking Sara and Scott as a couple. This season, I think they have really highlighted how much Scott loves Sara. When they were planning the wedding, and Ben wasn't going to be there, it was Scott who talked him into it - not because he really wanted Ben to be there, but knew it meant the world to Sara. He was willing to get married in her backyard, even though you knew it was not what he wanted. Yesterday really sealed it. He was so considerate of her feelings. He stood up to her family and informed them that they did not have the kind of marriage where he would tell Sara what she had to do. Not to mention, the bedroom scene was pretty hot.....

I put this in the thread about Scott, but I feel that it belongs here as well. I think that the writers did an amazing job at putting Bill and Barb's style of handling problem situations next to Scott's. I'm beginning to think that perhaps Scott is meant to show an alternate way to problem-solving compared to Bill's, and that Scott and Sarah's marriage is meant to also contrast from that of Bill and Barb's (I just noticed that it's the two S's vs. the two B's!)

I concur with you all! The way Scott and Sarah handled that situation was such a great example of how a marriage should be. Bill should take notes!!!
