Like I said: I was kind of messed up by the end (the claim that the marriage went unconsummated? I had no idea), so yeah, it's probably a good idea to watch for yourself. This single episode doesn't eliminate all of the good that the show's done over the years - especially given that it's the product of a writing pair (Dabb and Lafflin) that has been responsible for MANY of the show's worst episodes over the last four seasons.

My main disappointment in the show as a whole is that all of this made it through the entire production process without anyone raising these objections along the way. I am very fortunate in having just this one trigger left over from my experience - I can't imagine how bad this episode was for people (1 in 6) who are more easily triggered by references to their trauma.
