I didn't expect Katie to tell him so quickly.
During her whole "Because you weren't ready" justification speech I kept thinking "well obviously you weren't ready either, were you?"
River: I didn't think you'd come for me. Simon: Well, you're a dummy.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Right?! How is her sleeping with another man, Brit's fault? Does the drinking mean she already decided not to keep the baby?
This is fiction and I'm still pissed at her.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I didn't even notice that she started drinking wine. Man, that scene was brutal. Britt killed me.
I loved the spy-jinks!

I'm worried about Winston. Who gets custody? And does this mean that Hank and Britt will be roomies now?
edit - Also, I don't think that Britt is going to be very understanding, at least at first, when he finds out that Hank knew about Katie and the professor.

They'll be roomies for about as long as it takes for Britt to find out that Hank knew and didn't tell him.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Brit flipping his coat up like a little kid made the hurt worse.
I know! He was so broken. Gah.
I don't think Katie believes what she was telling him, I think she believes what she told Hank before, that she was freaked out thinking Brit WAS ready and she couldn't handle everything being so perfect, but that when he said "what did I do?" she decided to give him the answer that fit the question.

The lone gunmen guys are pretty funny.

This.
when he said "what did I do?" she decided to give him the answer that fit the question.
I can see that, because it seemed to come out of nowhere. It also hurts more because he was going back and forth about being ready and had decided he was ready.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, ouch.
I care about these characters. They are so flawed and human but I want them to somehow make it to the next day.
It looked like Katie was only taking tiny, tiny almost not sips of wine. Not enough it freaked me out. Miming drinking.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I think Britt will forgive his best friend. He'll be pissed, but it isn't like the secret was kept for very long.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
BTW, the other thing I really liked about the way it all went down is that Britt wasn't blissfully ignorant about Katie's lies. He saw she was sick and he didn't buy that she was sick from food poisoning. He pressed her on it.
Almost any other show would have the man walk away and say "maybe she was just sick."
