Oh man, this is amazing. You have Kalinda so spot on and perfect. I love the part where you show in the opening who Leela was and then in the next who Kalinda becomes. A rebirth scene that is just perfect.
And then the scene with Peter and that is just so well done. It hits every spot, from Peter assured that he loves his wife (never in doubt) and that to Kalinda it is her saying thanks and nothing more.
Kalinda can even appreciate the fact that it probably isn't even the sex that Alicia has the problem with. It is the lying, the various opportunities Kalinda had to give Alicia the respect she had earned and tell her the truth that was almost always tainting the tip of her tongue.
YES. That, and I love you have Kalinda realizing that, but that it doesn't change anything because it's happened.

Basically, this is perfect and stunning.
