Journeyman relaxed from its intense pace as of late to give us a quieter episode, but still dropped us some things to chew on until next week’s big finish.

Before I begin, I just want to dig it further home that if this shown never returns, it’s going to be a bummer. I really, really enjoy all the characters and heart this show has.

Case in point is how they continue each week with stories from the previous, many of them dealing with the ongoing issues that Dan’s traveling brings to the family. Katie especially. This week was a great moment for her in a way. Her struggles with him being gone, coupled with the Aeden Bennett crisis from last week has left her a mess.

Toss in Christmas and the holidays, and promises Dan can’t keep, and she’s got a lot going on.
