I found this episode really, really touching in many ways. The scene where Anne and Diana read their respective letters was beautifully done and really drove home the depth of their friendship. I especially like how the scene earlier in the series when they pledged their friendship was used, a really nice touch. If anything, this incident is just making the two girl's friendship even stronger.

wow, what can I say. These past few episodes have been so great, I just don't know what to say really. I loved the first episode, and I've been liking the show more and more every single episode. I'm already sad at the prospect of reaching the 50th episode.
"...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth')

Wow this show is really starting to pick up. The scene on the bridge where Anne and Diana said goodbye was so beautiful

Gilbert is still trying to get Anne to forgive him, aww.

Nice to know that Minnie Andrews is a nice girl, and I'm a bit sad my theory was wrong. Looks like Mrs. Barry is truly mad and there are no ulterior motives. :(

I loved the use of the falling leaves during the farewell scene to symbolize the transition of Anne and Diana's relationship.

Agree with the reply above me.. This is too sweet, I don't mind they are going to lesbian route.

It's nice to see that Minny Andrews seems like a good girl too despite her lack of imagination lol.

I haven't seen a show which captures the raw dramatic emotions that can come from a child. It all feels so over exaggerated and theatrical but it never feels intentionally done, its more that these girls haven't lived much life and to them losing a friend is like their entire world crumbling. Especially for Anne, who's never had a chance to have a real friend and make that deep bond. Its a very innocent and sympathetic view without a hint of malice while acknowledging the somewhat silly reality of it all which I really appreciate. Anne and Dianna really do have such a deep romantic bond with each other, and I hope to see them get closer, its so sweet. <3
Hopefully Dianna's mom will stop bein a sour bitch and let them be together again TvT
