I dislike the use of Zee as a typical scary movie crazy kid. We never get to see him as his regular self, or learn why he's acting the way he is, and it's somewhat dehumanizing.
I did really enjoy Justin's use of learned therapeutic techniques to control his panic attacks. As an anxiety sufferer, it felt very true to life. Kind of wish a bit more detail had shown up so kids could learn them early - it would have helped me!
