The things you learn on this forum!!
Just had to look up who Robert Abplanalp was as I had never heard of him. The inventor of the aerosol valve, how did you know that binkie?

Hahaha! I had to look it up too! Big Grin Who knows what lurks in the encyclopedic mind of the binkie!

I think she knows he did the right thing for an operational POV, but needs the respect of knowing that it was not an easy thing for him to do. Almost as if she is trying to make sure he is aware that he is still connected to his warmer side.

I agree with this. Also I think that Jo makes similar comments in episode 6.10 and the interchange in this episode foreshadows his decision in 6.10 to put his team above everything else.

There is a beautiful symmetry to Jo and Adam's dynamic that comes full circle this season. It is one of the better things in a weaker season, to my mind. The episodes at the front and end of the season are definitely of a higher grade than the ones in the middle.
