And that thought is almost as depressing as this episode, Dont Say It.
But a flashback to the past 36 hours quickly puts us in angst-land.
We pick up where we left off last week: in the land of permanently long-faced Mike Lawson.

Where does he so urgently need to go all the time?
I cant blame him.
I am actually relating to the perpetually whiny Blip.
Will this glorious feeling last the whole episode?
But well get to that in a minute.
Josh Peck brings back his Jonah HillMoneyballimpression briefly to tell Oscar that Ginnys arm is used up.
If they want to avoid her getting injured, they need to shut her down for the year.
Oscar says okay, and Blip thinks she should call it a year, too.
(Nobody invited Blip to this meeting, but he marches in anyway.
Im still with him.
For about 20 more minutes.)
Al and Lawson think Ginny should get to keep throwing.
A compromise is established, with help from E fromEntourage: Ginny will at least make her next start.
For her part, Ginny thinks this is all nonsense.
She promises Evelyn that shell handle Will.
NEXT: Kissing and fighting galore
Now, this is where things start to fall apart.
Hold on to your Padres hats, becausePitchis about to turn intoOne Tree Hillfor the duration of the episode.
All of a sudden, romantic storylines charge forward like Wal-Mart shoppers on Black Friday.
Thats what I thought.
Because shows mostly dont do this, and when they do, its highly forgettable.
Noah, the Zuckerbergian billionaire Ginny ran out on last week for Lawson.
And Ginny swooning, after a season of painting her as a true hardass?
I dont buy it.
The whole thing felt less realistic than the STRIKEOUT!!!
headline I spotted in the FS1 game graphics.
Thankfully, Ginnys true self kicks in once Noah proposes a whirlwind trip around the world.
Im the one on the mound.
I throw the ball.
Ready for Blip and I to part ways?
So… maybe Blip just needs a pair of American Girl dolls?
She leaves Blip to sulk over the elaborate breakfast I have a feeling he didnt cook himself.
Somehow, it feels a little like the season ended in a tie.
