I love these reviews so much I'm reading them again. :-)
About the foreshadowing of Irene, I assumed that was the point of Ray's little revelation in "You Must Remember This" - that the woman he thought was the right one turned out to be wrong (Angie?), and the one he thought was wrong he let slip away and she ended up marrying some goomba six months later (Irene?).
Yep, an unsatisfactory episode with some brilliant moments. In an earlier review, you noted how successful Fraser is in a world that abides by rules of social conduct - that's what I love about the scene with Fraser and Charlie (and Dief). There's such a sense of ease and competence about their interaction - different sides, but on the same page...or something...
