[spoilers] Harry and Ruth: Back With A Vengeance?

[beatrice4ruth]

At least in this series we cannot accuse Ruth of shutting off Harry. She really looked in love in episode 1.

Even though Harry has a lot on his mind, he should open up to Ruth in a hurry. When she asked her question about Sasha, it was not out of personal curiosity but to limit the damage that this revelation could do on Harry's career. He should have realized that she was trying to help him. He can use his boss privilege on his other agents, but he depends on Ruth to save his career. As usual, it was bad timing for the two, because next Ruth is going to dinner with the HS and she might consider his promotion.

Over the years when Harry treated Ruth badly, he felt bad afterward and later kind of apologized for his boorish behavior. It is strange that Harry acted in the same curt way with Ruth when the team was talking about Catherine in 3.4. He got so defensive and snapped at Ruth (your middle name is "there is something else"; sorry paraphrase). When he left the conference room, he felt guilty and tried to make a nice remark to Ruth. His children really get to Harry.
