That's a great idea! I also liked this little dialogue:
- With great power comes great responsibility.
- Did you just quote Spider Man?
- I believe, I did, yes :)

And I loved the moment when he sang for her in her apartment, and I couldn't help but tell her how he felt!

After watching the episode twice, I still think Adam is behaving very strangely: in the altered day, no one took away his free will from him - he chose a job, and Erica supported him, but he left anyway, blaming her, although she repeated twice that she was changing herself, not him.! I think he's a jerk.

With great power comes great responsibility. Why? Because power is an illusion. The desire to yield that is weakness, an exercise for Ego. And the fact is that all you are really hold when you hold power is all the rope you need to hang yourself.

@NataliaDavydova: now my IMHO will go - the way he reacts to conflict situations clearly shows why he did not pass the exam. The opinion is different from his - he immediately takes hostility, begins to raise his voice, actively gesticulate and run away. He doesn't listen to Erica, not only doesn't listen, he doesn't even let her fully express her thoughts. This season, it became clear how he was not suitable for living together with Erica, he did not strive for anything, he liked his swamp, the character seemed to have taken a step back from last season (although it was clear that it simply would not happen to him). In this episode, I got the distinct feeling that he was looking for a reason to break up and like good riddance.
As for the fact that she was changing herself, I completely agree, he is a former patient, he should know how the doctor's abilities work, and he, like a little boy, threw a tantrum because "mom" put too much on him.

Actually, it's not clear, it seems that those who are ready for it are allowed to take the exam, but Adam still clearly has a lot of problems. And I didn't quite understand if his therapy was completely finished, like "he didn't pass, well, fuck him," in theory it should continue and then there should be a retake if the doctors' task is to help a person.

They still haven't explained why Kai can go back to the past, so that Erica and her Adam, who I don't like, know about it?
23minutes Kai Erica's song with guitar
I don't feel sorry for Erica crying after an argument with Adam, because I didn't see them as a couple at all. Just like with Ethan, who is good as a friend, not a life partner.
I love Brent's shirts and his salsa again.

This season, Erica really behaves strangely, selfishly, and as if she knows everything better for others. I don't like Adam, but the fact that Erica wants to adjust him to her wishes is wrong. It's just that if he's like this, but he doesn't suit her, and compromise is impossible, the only way out is to break up. Kai is also kind of fickle, I don't know, give Erica a good man already) So, I didn't understand, will Julianne and Brent's kiss remain, won't it be forgotten after Erica's manipulations with time? They're so sweet, I'd cut them, she says, it's better for my ear, not my shirt. 😆

Adam's reaction is very strange. After all, they send me something in the past all the time. So what? Is everyone else's freedom of will being taken away from them? Well, what nonsense.
Of course, Erica wanted to control Adam's life a little, but in the end she accepted his choice.
In general, I'm very glad that they broke up (:

I don't know why everyone is mad at Adam. After so many days in therapy, Erica makes mistakes one after another, and sometimes even bangs her forehead on the same rake, but she is forgiven by a grateful audience, because the scriptwriters tell in detail about what and where the legs grow from. Adam's personality and experiences, for obvious reasons, are not given the same amount of screen time, and therefore he needs to be soaked. The dude did not see himself in a serious relationship, he had never fallen in love with anyone before, which means he does not really know how to build them, as well as understand his feelings. Yes, perhaps such close interaction in his life with another person, while he is used to solving everything himself, pushes him away - that's why all Erica's attempts to avoid a quarrel lead to nothing. I think he just needed time, to step back and assess everything from the outside. And just don't tell me that this is not a mature position, etc. If everything in life was logical and orderly, then we would not be people, but robots.

Either Adam didn't learn his therapy at all and therefore behaves as if his therapy had never happened, or he needs to work much more on himself and it's not about Eric, but with any girl it would be like that, or the scriptwriters don't give a damn where Adam came from that they decided to merge him without any prerequisites to show that he such a bad guy will never change and cannot work on himself, and all this in order to bring Erica and Kai together.

In my opinion, neither Adam nor Kai are suitable for Erica 🙄
Dr. Tom should have been working with Adam in this situation, not Erica. To a large extent, she was thinking sensibly. Like an adult. Adam has some kind of teenage behavior changes: he buys a motorcycle (although, as I understand it, his finances are not very good), then he decides to drop out of school without even talking to his soulmate. Is she to blame? It's an interesting pitch, of course, that the guy in the family is the boss and the woman should listen to him and accept him as he is. Sorry. We are not in the 19th century. Before this episode, I even liked their pair. But now... Erica clearly deserves better.
