I'm amazed at how thoroughly and seemingly accurately you broke-down Fleabag's depth in this episode. The analysis of her character actually improves my experience of [having watched] the show, overall. One concern I was left with in thinking about her more holistically, was that certain viewers (particularly younger viewers) would see Fleabag as a full-fledged hero, in essence charmed and won-over by her "cool" character the way other characters can be enamored with her on the show. I wish her flaws were better outlined somehow so that people understand her self-sabotaging tendencies as well as her triumphs. One question I have for you is do feel that by the end of the series she has learned anything from her final rejection by the priest? And do you think the show successfully conveys any kind of lesson to the viewer? Also - I'm curious what you think (in a nutshell) of the toxic persona of Martin (Claire's husband)?

Ah I loved Fleabag so much, especially the first series. I felt like it was the type of story that just wasn't getting told and yet was so familiar. She is like so many people I know in various ways and like me too in some ways and I can easily imagine knowing her, unlike the vast majority of people on TV, women especially, because there's something surreal about a woman written by a man based on what he learned from women on other TV shows with female characters also written by men. Fleabag on the other hand was so real and so human.
