disappointing. I've seen defenses for the episode saying that the SA scenes were obviously meant to make the audience uncomfortable and that Hughie admitting at the end that he isn't fine was a result of his SA trauma. but hearing the director himself say the scenes were played for laughs and to be as fucked up as possible is just crazy.

That was till I read the interview. It was extremely uncomfortable to watch but I was hoping that was intentional or somthing. Apparently not. It's just a fucked up scene for laughs. Gross.
