Rather than a special episode, this episode plays out more like a continuation of the original series and provides closure for the couple.

If you've been following the rest of the series (which you should be, considering you're reading a review for the special episode), the relationship between the two main characters is ambiguous at best by the end of it. The last episode of the main series ended on a bit of a cliffhanger, which would have been strange had this episode not been planned. This episode provides more context to the beach trip and brings back the other characters from the series.

Although the other characters don't provide a lot of substance for this episode, it was cute to see the interactions between them. That being said, this episode is quite fluffy and only minutely contributes to the actual story line. Despite that, I wouldn't really consider this series complete without this special and view this more as an episode 5 to the main series.

Overall, this is an integral addition to Roommate The Series and personally, I have a better appreciation for the main series now that this has been released and the cliffhanger has been cleared up.
