I think that the first paragraph is probably needed if it meets a standard of the assignment or task. I think that the last sentence of the first paragraph needs to be reworded or eliminated so that it does not sound so much as unsubstantiated opinion. At the same time, I think that the second paragraph is where the strength of the analysis lies. I would focus in on the basic element that is hammered out in that the episode focuses on the link between eating habits and emotional conditions. The sentence about the tomato plant might detract from this. I think that being able to focus on how the episode details the link between emotions and food consumption is where the strength of the paragraph lies. I would focus here and place emphasis on these points as I develop the paragraph. I understand that there is a need to summarize the episode. Yet, in analyzing the episode's message and theme, it becomes critical to ensure that there is constant discussion of the link between food consumption and emotional states of being. In assessing the paragraph, I believe that this is an area that has to be fully addressed as early and as often as possible in this essay.
