Days might be known for their more outlandish moments, to me though, they tend to be at their best when the nonsense quiets down and the focus is on family. Almost anytime Brady and his daughter Rachel share the screen you know you’re in for something good and memorable. I loved their conversation this week. Kristen may rarely pay for her misdeeds but it was at least something of a payoff for the audience to see that her daughter isn’t in fact blind to her mom’s toxicity. Lorelei Olivia Mote was fantastic when Rachel confessed that she loves her mom but thinks she might be better off without her for awhile. The actress perfectly played the vulnerability, guilt, and relief in that admission and Martsolf couldn’t have been a better scene partner with the sensitivity he brought to the moment, with Brady taking the high road, not trashing Kristen but agreeing that the calm in her mom’s absence will probably be a good reset for Rachel. It was also fun afterwards with the pair talking back-to-school shopping and Rachel teasing Brady about his lack of style, further cementing the lifelike vibe of their relationship.
