For me this episode is the epitome of the first season's biggest weakness, in that you can tell the writing is up to its normal high standard but the story itself flounders quite a bit. There are several lengthy scenes that feel unnecessarily prolonged without any meaningful development. There are parts of the episode that I really like, but as a whole it's one of my least-favorite episodes of the first three seasons.
