That was a good apology, and look, I'm sorry that I called you a closet case that's not okay. I shouldn't have said that stuff about you, and I didn't realize how loaded it was. It was the first day, and I'm working through this stuff. Justin: What did I do to you? What is your problem with me? Simon: I have been called ridiculous my entire life, but for that to come from another gay man and someone that I respect, that sucks. Justin: Fine, yes I judged your tutu, but does that make me a bigot? Justin: OK, so I am a homophobe, I'm a closet case, and a femme phone? You want to throw anything else at me? Let's talk about how you need to check your femme phobia. Justin: Dude, can we just talk about this? One could've easily dismissed Simon's hurt feelings over what Justin said in the promo and even used the equally as loaded "drama queen" to describe his actions. Justin and Simon also had one of the most important and emotionally gratifying exchanges of the hour. The Big Leap is a story about second chances, and they keep reiterating and showing how that applies to everyone. She was a solid sidekick and accomplice for Nick during his misadventures throughout the installment, ironically, tending to his friends. She's intuitive and a great read of people and situations. : It's just that if we're talking about our feelings, it's important that you love me better.It's just that if we're talking about our feelings, it's important that you love me better. Henri: I just don't like it when you bag on mom. She's smart enough to know that her father won't have time for her right now, but she also doesn't seem to take it personally or hold his job against him either. The divorce was hard on all of them, but she didn't hesitate to establish boundaries when Nick kept cutting down his ex-wife. Henri is a wise young girl, and she has a bit of her father in her, but she seems to keep him honest and tells it to him straight. He was accessible to her in a way that he probably isn't often, and that was such a fascinating play of things given the nature of the show, or rather the show within a show.Īnd Scott Foley and Blaire Brown were fantastic together. It's through the lens that Nick makes himself surprisingly unguarded for his daughter. It's not often a child can ask their parent what they're afraid of and get a real, vulnerable, truthful answer. What are you so afraid of?Īnd then she turned it back on him. Nick: What am I so afraid of? I'm afraid that we'll drift apart and that next, you'll be in high school and then you graduate and then we'll only talk on Father's Day, and that's all because you went to England for six months when you were 13. Through the camera, he could see her body language, facial reactions, and more as she felt compelled to be honest with him. Hiding behind the camera, Nick could ask Henri what she wanted to do, if she really wanted to stay with him or go to Manchester with her mother. Even within the privacy and confines of his office, he still had to hide behind a camera to talk to Henri, ask her the questions he was too afraid to because Nick knew the answers that he didn't want to hear. Nick knows the power of the camera, and he's not exempt from the effects of it.
