The whole Ella/Ouzy coming back absolutely has all the hallmarks of either producer involvement, or she felt so guilty about knowing him on the outside that she felt like she had to bring him back. There was absolutely no conviction in what she was saying, it was all really flippant towards Ouzy and how she felt. It all feels staged to me for the drama.
Catherine and Uncle Elom can just get in the bin now, she could’ve redeemed herself and been dignified instead of this argument with Scott in the preview. They were close, not closed off yes, but did he deserve that treatment from Catherine? Nope.
