I like the glimpse into Sage's home life, in particular from Gen's POV. Gen was too funny with: “You have friends?” “Why is your mom so nice, and you're the complete opposite?” I like that she's comfortable enough at this point with Sage that she says these sorts of things rather than think them.
I also like Merri and Michael here. Meredith is fun because she has a lot of layers. She seems nice, but no one can really say for certain what she'll do, which makes her a lot of fun to write. I think after the last scene with her—which involved her coldly shooting a man—this provides a nice contrast, in particular with the exchange between her and Michael. They have an interesting dynamic—there's a lot of respect, a lot of trust, and even some platonic affection. Or is it platonic? Muahahaha!
We swing back around to Gen for the final bit. She's repentant about being so quick to judge Merri, and I think it showed a lot of maturity on her part.
