In this masterclass of HVB season 2 we brought in a master story teller in Kevin Allison.

So that's a good case right there where the bones of the story were incredible. Like that's just on paper and an incredible overview of a story, but it's not going to work unless you can fill in all those sensory details that bring it alive and make it emotional for us.
