Art of Love (2020) Episode 9: Wonderful Gift

For the most part, the 56+ minute Episode 9: Wonderful Gift resolved the important conflicts on this series. Sean admitted to himself, Olivia, Noah, and his father that he's gay. Eventually, Olivia forgave him and they're friends now. Sean's father accepted him. Noah also professed his love for Sean. Sean forgave Peachy for accidentally posting online his fictional story. And Peachy and Nate are a thing now, and so are Leo and Lexie. Everybody happy, lol! While realistically some of these would have taken a little bit more time, I'm generally fine with how all these were settled. Screenplay was largely alright but the weakness was with the delivery of lines. Some of the dialogues appeared dry. Acting was still mostly underwhelming. Noah and Sean's chemistry, beyond bromance, was never fully developed. While slightly better than previous episodes, audio-visuals were still uneven. There were volume fluctuations and poor camera shots. But for a do-it-yourself (DIY) series, Art of Love, overall, was ok.
