This was one of the best episodes yet! I was sold once I heard the episodes title, "Time After Time" - which reminded me of the delightfully awkward Napoleon Dynamite and the slow dance scene in that movie...in this episode they also had a good slow dance scene, except they used Nick Ruth's "Believe" which is also a great song.
Loved all the interactions between Jake / Jenna and Matt / Jenna, although it was kind of frustrating to watch at times, especially the scene where Matty and Jenna have a heart-to-heart after he shows up at her door and they have “If The Night Is Dark" by Seeker, Lover, Keeper playing in the background.
I'm definitely curious to see how this whole break-up scenario is going to change Jake moving forward, perhaps the dark side of him comes out now that he's been hurt? Does he become controlling and crazy instead of just the nice guy he's always been?
