An estranged Scotty and Kevin manage to work it out on a very good episode of “Brothers & Sisters”

http://images.hollywood.com/cms/300x375/5370705.jpgI’m happy to report that ABC’s Brothers & Sisters continued it’s recent resurgence with a solid funny and touching episode last night.

Love seeing Justin (Dave Annable) smiling and flirting again as he begins life as a single man (let him date awhile!) and to see Holly (Patricia Wettig) get her memory back (that whole storyline has been a real drag).

Kitty (Calista Flockhart) and Sara (Rachel Griffiths) were terrific as their sister characters worked out some deep rivalry issues and Sally Field (as mom Nora) was in top form as she dealt with her daughters and began a flirtation with a handsome new character (a fellow radio show host at her station).

And finally, Kevin and Scotty. We knew they would get back together, somehow, after Scotty’s cheating episode.

I’m just happy with how they got back together, how the family’s love for in-law Scotty was shown to be so deep and how while Scotty did the cheating, Kevin had to take some responsibility for his role in it – especially when he skipped the opening night of Scotty’s restaurant.

It was on that night, with Kevin MIA, that Scotty succumbed to the charms of a hot young waiter.

I did a terrible thing …sometimes I feel like our life is all about you, you consume all of the oxygen in the room. Someone came up to me and offered to make it all about me. When you didn’t show up to my opening, I was so hurt. I wanted to be the star that night.”

While Scotty did feel that way that night and at times, he makes clear that he mostly loves being in support of Kevin, doesn’t mind being in his shadow: “My life with you is beautiful and I cherish it, but it’s not without it’s problems.”

Kevin admits: I’m scared to let you back in.”

the catalyst for the couple to start talking again is niece Paige who needs their help to prepare for a debate competition. It is at the competition, when the two arrive together, that we know they have worked it out.

Before entering the auditorium, they hold hands and Kevin says: “Scotty, I love you.”

Scotty replies to his husband: “I love you too.”

Now someone hand me a damned Kleenex!
