It's like the writers are unable to write any coopertive scenes anymore, maybe they think they have to write something else or put in some new technology to catch our attention when all we really want is scene together with the whole team! But they have made an improvement this season with the opening scene in Power Trip, where Tara, Ry, Cal and Eric come in together. They're getting there, just wait.
And I do expect a lovy duby scene between E and C because I bet my friend $100 jamaican dollars that they'd have a good love scene, any how TPTB let's me down, ugh, I don't even wanna think that...
