[spoilers] Harry and Ruth Strike Back

[Silktie]

I agree it was a strange scene. I'm glad, though, that Harry told her they should keep things to work, as she now knows very clearly where they stand with each other. I'm with TL in that she was really calling just to hear his voice, and the work was just an excuse. I think it's good that Harry, at least, is attempting to define the relationship more clearly, otherwise they'd be lost in a fog of uncertainty forever. But yes, Ruth can't have it both ways, and Harry - depressed as he is about his job - is really in no position to handle mixed signals from her.

I do feel a bit sorry for Ruth as well. I don't think she is nearly as certain about what she wants as she appeared to be during that scene on the roof last week. She seemed rather sad once that weird phone call was over, so maybe she is beginning to wonder if she made the right choice after all?
