#I will always love Ross but he can be an unjust asshole

On my 834th rewatch :D and I'm constantly irritated at this episode. In the book Ross is angry at Demelza over the Verity business but he lays the blame primarily on Francis BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE IT BELONGS! I can understand being pissed about Demelza getting involved considering what happened at Nampara, Francis and Blamey dueling etc., but the show portrays Demelza as the worst fuck up on earth. How is it her fault that Francis sucks? After that dressing down by Ross, girlfriend, pack your shit, grab your kid and go. And why tf didn't Verity say in her note hey, by the way, I sought out Captain Blamey and rekindled our relationship or SOMETHING to keep Demelza and Ross out of the line of fire? She must've known shit would hit the fan... ! I know, I know, water under the bridge. end rant.
