Wow, wow, wow, how sad is space, you guys?
Something better than Mishas homemade vodka, hey.
Atlas Iis halfway through its journey to the Red Planet, and visual communications will be lost.
And its all happening around Christmas.
The holidays are rough, huh?
Emma is particularly on edge.
Shes still icing out Ram after his post-mono heart-to-heart.
She very simply yetverycoolly says that she keeps her work life and personal life separate.
She doesnt need any additional complications in her life.
Things are going to get personal.
Second, I am very much Team Emma and Matt, but poor Ram!
Its not like he made a pass at Emma.
He seems like a nice dude with perfect hair, and I feel for him.
Perhaps Emma is trying to forcefully stomp out any flicker of that flame because she is feeling conflicted?
Those are some formative years to miss out on.
Just in case the emotions werent ramped up enough for you.
Emma splits up her final calls so that she can have some one-on-one time with Matt.
Even her bold lip and mascara cannot mask how sad these two are on the call.
That he made [her] believe that [she] was good.
That Lex is so lucky to have him as her dad.
That shes proud to be his wife.
Speaking of emotion, Emmas final call with Lex is also pretty gutting.
You know, typical Moms gotta go to Mars stuff.
It is nice to see Lex admit how mad she is at her mom for leaving her like this.
Lex seems pretty mature for a freshman in high school.For now.
Remember when I said that Lu and Emma probably wouldnt be friends?
Lu always seems sotogetherabout the whole thing.
Lu reminds Emma that just because she seems together doesnt mean its the truth.
People arent excited enough about going to Mars is what Im saying.
Emma doesnt corner the market on emotional final phone calls with family, by the way.
and (b) surprisingly moving for, again, a puppet show about a space dog.
His daughter appreciates him admitting that but still cannot forgive him.
And thats his final call with his daughter.
Oh, you guys thought this was a show about trying to get to Mars?
If all the people who, after each episode ofAway,ask What else could go wrong?
could just stop, that would be great.
Because now weve got space blindness.
Kwesi prays and lights the menorah with his mother and then thanks her for everything shes done for him.
Can we get Kwesis background story already?
Plant Watch: Kwesis Hanukkah gift to his crewmates is the first batch of greens grown on theAtlas.
Get that on a T-shirt or something.
So, not to alarm anyone, but a huge chunk of skin on Kwesis heel falls off.
Kwesi is only mildly placated when Ram assures him his penis wont be next.
The things you have to worry about in space!
One time on a dirt bike with a boy and now Lex is sneaking out of the house.
Lu and Kwesi dancing together!!
