The Lyme disease thing was just very silly and it did not make a lot of medical sense to me. It has been a while since med school, but I could have sworn a rash like that is a sign of an acute infection and not something that happens after the bacteria has lain dormant for months. Other (systemtic) symptoms can occur after quite a while though, but Joan has not been carrying that bug around for the entire season. She clearly was not imagining god. I guess this is done to test her faith. Not the audience´s because we could still see god, and now even her parents got to talk to god. So we know this god was not a figment of her imagination. I expect that next season after maybe a few angsty eps for Joan she will regain her faith in herself and god.
I noticed Grace´s reaction to Joan´s telling her she loves Adam. I´m not sure what to make of it, I wonder whether this was scripted or directed. It was interesting for sure. She looked...not jealous, more disappointed I guess. In answer to the Rose´s question, her kissing Luke does not necessarily make me believe she is straight. I kissed boys and I am certainly not a straight woman. She never came out and said what her sexual preference is, she did not deny being gay, but she also did not say she was. I guess only she knows, and whatever she says goes, and whatever it may be does not matter. She is a very interesting character and I like her ambiguity (I don´t just mean her sexuality). Luke scored a good point wben he countered her "anti" statement. Her response cracked me up "I am not that anti".
I think their relationship is interesting, regardless of whether continu on to become boyfriend or girlfriend, I like their interaction. I do hope we will not see less of Glynis next season. I really like her and I hope to see more of her (and Grace) and less of pa Girardi and Kevin (far less of him).
). However, I'm still not sure how I feel about the two of them. I have to say that Grace did not seem particularly jealous of Joan (being in love w/ Adam) per se, but I do think she kinda resents all the time the two of them have spent being ooey-gooey w/ each other, and cutting her out. 
). Thing is, I like both characters so much . . . just not together. I think.
I think Helen's fairly interesting too, but *not* going there!

Speaking of Grace, I do wish she would kinda deal more w/ all the innuendo (and well-meaning generalities, as w/ Joan), than (literally!) hiding her head under a lampshade. Say it, Grace: "I'm straight!" "I'm bi!" "I don't know what I am!" Just say something. (That's JMO)
