I don't expect as much from itty-bitty series, so I grade on a curve. The drama started well, and I thought I was going to be pleasantly surprised. Midway through, it began to meander and not always make sense, but I was still entertained and rooting for the beleaguered couple. I considered it one of the better itty-bitty dramas: the leads were appealing, and the story was engaging. Then the last episode hit, and things got bizarre in a hurry. I can only speculate that drugs and a preschooler were involved with coming up with that finish.

Director: "Hey kid, what would make a cool ending?"

Kid: "Make a lady eat centipedes! And she'll grow Wolverine claws. Her name is BLACK WOLF. Good, huh? She's a bad guy and will fight the good guys with her claws and ninja powers!"

Director: "Sounds super cool! There's no budget for a fight scene, though. How about I do a story time with Black Wolf instead?"

Kid: "Boring! Does Black Wolf die in the fight?"

Director: "For some reason unknown to anyone, Black Wolf must have been defeated, and now she is the Story Time Lady."

Kid: "That's stupid."

The kid is right. That was stupid. Stupid ending for a drama that started out well. The leads deserved better.
