Feena returns to the moon in order to deal with the news of Karen being arrested, and to try and convince her father to let her marry Tatsuya.

Impressions: 

I think that this show is getting pretty interesting. Like I said before, it really has become something entirely different then it started out as. It’s already a given that they are going to be together, and they basically both know that. It’s not a matter of them telling each other their feelings, unlike most shows that start out as this one did. It has completely been about overcoming the political struggles of their marriage, and just about the politics in the relationship between the earth and the moon. I think it is really interesting because not many other shows have that kind of focus, because not only is it about the politics, but about people in love trying to overcome them.

I think one of the best parts of this episode was the whole flashback to Feena’s mother and father. I had no idea that her father started out as a commoner. Although, this doesn’t mean he is the same as Tatsuya. He still came from the moon, but it still showed a huge similarity between his situation and what Feena and Tatsuya are going though. I loved the part where Feena was talking to her dad and she said the same thing in the same way as her mother did basically. I thought that was kind of cool.
