The Affair - Season 2 Episode 6: Episode 6
The Affair explores the emotional effects of an extramarital relationship between Noah Solloway and Alison Bailey after the two meet in the resort town of Montauk on Long Island. No marriage is beyond temptation, and there is no refuting the connection set in motion when Noah and Alison meet by chance. What follows is far more than an intimate portrait; it’s a unique and thrilling narrative that unravels the dangerous truth layer by layer.

A Helen/Noah split - hooray! (More Helen, all the time, thank you.)

Welp, guess there's another wedding in the future! Hopefully not the same one that kills Scotty Lockhart. Oh who am I kidding, I don't really care.

Through tears, Maura Tierney continues her spectacular performance this season with this speech about Helen's love for Noah, even though all Margaret ever did was make her feel like dirt for choosing him.

This was a juicy episode, written by the playwright David Henry Hwang... with flashes of dark humor in the second half (when Noah went to fetch Alison from the new-age retreat where she had been staying while exiled from Brooklyn).

The scene where Helen tells Noah that he's an excellent father to their children is a fascinating one because it comes from Helen's perspective, not Noah's.

Maura Tierney forever. Another week, another fine performance from her.

This is an episode full of brutal moments, but there is a beauty to be found here, too.

The show finally is making some progress instead of feeling meandering and ponderous.

Aack. This entire hour just left me feeling sorry for everyone involved. Well, everyone except Margaret.
