Snooping around in other people's affairs just to satisfy one's curiosity?

Somehow i didn't really like this episode...
--Don't get me wrong i loved the story (!!) but something was wrong.

I think it was the way they began the episode. The suspicion about the guy being a escaped prisoner. They all talked about this like they were some bored villagers who don't have anything else to do. And because they want to still their curiosity they have to find out what's behind this.
The scene at the end strenghened this. It was where the husband told his wife that he has an illness and is going to loose his sight. I think that scene was too personal. The other three perosns (Daisuke-kun, Shioriko-san, Shida-san) were totally 'moved' and stood in the background... (I don't think that made it better) The last episode was done much better. They heard the story but only Shida-san was right there and talked with her. They gave her the privacy she needed.

Maybe i'm a bit too oldfashioned ^^; In the century where everyone knows everything thanks to facebook & Co it's maybe wishfull thinking that there's something that belongs only to a couple.

The lovestory between the married couple was really sweet and had everything to get wonderful moments (Those "Awwwwwww..." Scenes everyone wishes for in romance stories *.*)
Conclusion: I liked this couple but how they snooped around in their affairs wasn't really nice. I hope the next episode is going to be better.
