Oh...this is GORGEOUS. Sara, remarried and with a half-brother for Amy. Nick asking Janette to check in on Natalie. All the things left unsaid by Nick, Nat, Janette...the fractures that are there are perfectly visible, even without specific comments. So. Good.
I love love love Nat's emphatic response to Janette's "Should he not have told you?" and Janette's email. I totally didn't expect that she was there at Nick's request till I got to the email and, OH, how perfect...and her telling him she would be honest with him, all because of Nat's comments and her all-night thoughts on them...
The PERFECT descriptions of Janette and Natalie's ironic, "You haven't changed a bit" and Nat's "no, I'm not going to feel self-conscious" bit while going through a laundry list of how she looks and what she's wearing... Really strong visuals from the post office and hotel room.
This is FANTASTIC and especially believable in what it doesn't say and leaves to question.
