Am really surprised how Ricky did write something dark like this show.

The only episode where I recall genuinely laughing out loud. Not because this show isn't funny — its almost constant bleaker tone doesn't really leave much room for tears of laughter (only the other kind of tears) — but that lady and her homemade desserts... Oh my. Yes, it was a bit crude and basic humour, but the way it was unexpectedly inserted in a show of this nature caught me off guard.

And I really enjoyed how this episode, unlike the others, ended on a more positive note. People may be shit, but Tony may be finally seeing a glimpse of the better side of humanity in a few of them.

Tony is finally getting ready to move on… eventually.

Wow, Rickey!

The scene where Matt is confronting Ricky is pure heartfelt. The expressions are so genuine, almost had me in tears. He didn't mean it, but I get his mental state. I truly do. It is heart-wrenching, to say the least. It is hard to carry on when the last bastions that still holding on for you start crumbling.

This episode had it all. Heartfelt emotions and breezy laughter along with a dash of old age wisdom, packed in less than 30 mins. They don't make these very often.

These two quotes made this episode so rich for me, that I remember them until this day.

Happiness is amazing. It's so amazing, it doesn't matter if it's yours or not.

A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in.

First 3 episodes were brilliant, but now not so many laughs. Hope it picks up like the early episodes.
