Oh, I had a feeling that mean old Alexis would double cross him. Glad he hooked up with Jess again. She will no doubt save his life. This is just plain old great stuff, here.
Excellent writing...

Your generosity exceeds my vocabulary. Reviews like this more than make up for the rejections of agents.
Thank you again
Comment from Jay Squires
Hey, Bob, I couldn't find any SPAG! I am reading this on another Huge Screen computer, though, and it skews my judgment. So I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, LOL.
I've always said your writing was 6 star material, if it weren't for the SPAG. Gotta agree with that now.

Comment from Jason S. Parker
Nice work.
Your prose is tops. Your dialogue could use some work.
Suggestions:
1. Think about how you can make these lines of dialogue more unique. They are all cliche.
"Get out of here, Jess," he struggled with his words. "It's over."
"Not quitting on me, are you?"
"Save yourself, Jess. I can't walk."
2. A semi-colon in dialogue like this is a little odd.
"You don't have to walk, Calin, just float. We're going swimming; the current's going to take us downstream."
3. More cliche dialogue.
"I hope you know what you're doing."

Do I detect the smell of romance in the air? Or is it more like a like a little perfumed pollution? Well done with this one Bob, you've woven in two ideals in this episode! The excitement is growing and so is the tension, emotion v pragmatism, survival v vulnerability, great write again, Bob, I've been thinking about your brother, how is he? Alright, bearing up? Blessings, Roy.
