The arc these last weeks has, to me, had a slightly predestined feeling, like it was something he had thought out beforehand, got bored with and in the end just kind of... needed to get out of the way. I mean, it hasn't been as playful as usual. Just a feeling.

I know what you mean but I also think the arc was important from a story point of view.
Marten now has some history between himself and the Dora relationship which takes some of the emotional energy out of the way so he is no longer avoiding CoD. He has made some debatable decisions in the process which helps to show him a realistically flawed character as well as an unlucky one. In the process he has become motivated to take a look at his life and how he might want it to change. All of this bodes well for the future.

Steveb, that was a wonderful take-a-step-back analysis.
Thanks!
