The sex energy is still front and center, but their getting to the part of the relationship where the facade starts to crumble and people need to start being honest with each other. And I am really glad they get to act like human beings, they aren't just WOMEN (who have magical levels of understanding about feelings) or some fantasy lesbian couple catering to some perfect male fantasy.
