I wasn't really spoiled for ep 2, except for the OMGs on FSTV, and accidentally accessing the middle of ep 2 vid before I started watching it.
Warning: Spoiler!Cat getting knocked off her feet was pretty shocking and sudden though, even though I suspected something like that.
I liked the ep, but felt it milked the sadness a bit much though - very soapy. I would have liked some lighter moments.
However, they probably had to fit it all into 1 ep because of the actresses other commitments.
I'm happy getting more of Frankie's angst, and think she and Tess are a very good contrast. I like Frankie's reckless messiness, and the drama of the unexpected and dispossessed. And Tess's encounters with the ego-bitch actress was fun.
I find Sam a bit too upright, neat and controlled for my taste. However, if she becomes a bit off-balance in future, I might find her more interesting.
