Last week, Girls took a one-person detour that took Hannah (Lena Dunham) down a rabbit hole of unexpected and confined drama, much like the classic Six Feet Under episode that focused entirely, and surprisingly, on Michael C. Hall’s David Fisher, as he was abducted by a young sociopath. (For a full review of last week’s Girls, see Eric Gould’s Cold Light Reader.) This week, Girls returns to its usual multi-plot structure, but still has its surprises – especially in its lengthy pairing of oil-and-water hot-headed guys Adam (Adam Driver) and Ray (Alex Karpovsky).
