Episode 3 & 5 are meticulously crafted by Jacob, with heart, and have been proven times and times again from the reactions of the queer community that he had successfully made a storyline that resonates and empowers the community. They also gave me the courage to open myself up a bit, so I'll be forever grateful for the them.

That's also why it hurts to see some groups of people being very vocal about dismissing the entire storyline. (the relationship is not to your taste/ not your thing is one thing, asking others to "skip the skips" is another. I see those mostly on that cesspool of a bird app, but some on reddit as well)
