Damages, Andy Wolk directs - best episode yet?

Episode 11 of "Damages" season 2 - directed by Andy Wolk. Go, Andy! Is it the best episode of "Damages" yet? Could be - though at that point we're really racing toward the finish line, and hoping somebody's at the wheel. Hard to believe that all of this can be wrapped in two more (40-minutes) episodes. And just to make matters more confusing, a new character is introduced (Ellen hires a detective), a new plot line opens up (Phil's affair becomes important - Ellen sends secret pix to Patti. How does Patti know Ellen sent them?). Extremely confusing about Patti's son's relation with the older woman (why did they bother to show him with a young artist more his age?). And everyone's confused about who's watching the surveillance videos, both of the "present time" confrontation between Ellen and Patti (the FBI guy is watching) and the hotel room where Clair and what's his name, William Hurt, have a liaison. There's just too much, really. We see more of the "present tense" all the time - now it appears that Ellen (or at least someone) has shot Patti, and Ellen is arrested (as in season 1). But maybe that whole shooting is a setup of some sort - who and why? The crooked detective with the beard is involved, as is Wes (Ellen's duplicitous boyfriend). No series has a more complex plot (maybe Lost does, I don't know), and few are more compelling. Most of it's Patti/Close. I want to see more scenes with her, there are never enough. Walter Kendrick, played by the guy from The Wire, seems a very evil character, but the script does not use him well enough. He pushes Claire/Harden out of the picture in his struggle to maintain control of the board of UNR, but he doesn't by this point in the series seem a threat to anyone we care about, and Patti's lawsuit against him has faded from view. A lot of elements to take up in final two episodes, to say the least.
