Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: A very clean plot, where Elaine overcomes one obstacle after another to get her guy the help he needs--even when she realizes she'll have to pay a price for it.
Con: It ends up not being much of a price; everyone learns that the roller-skating story was just a story, but they already knew it.
It's a little hard to believe that Brexit will really cause the total balkanization of the UK.
