There really aren't. If Dave doesn't do what he does then he doesn't have a purpose and he just ends up being a generic boring guy. The outcome wasn't awful since the entire purpose of Sky and Dave's non relationship was to show why it would NOT work. The writers weren't desperate; it was a good plotline that everyone just brushes off as derailment

Scarlett Fever is anything but anti-climax. Did you expect everyone to die or the island to blow up or something? They barely lived in the first place. It was pretty obvious that Scarlett only had one shot to go full ham, and once that moment happened the only logical thing to do was eliminate her in that episode. The entire purpose of her character is to build up to that moment, which I think was fine. I don't think they focused enough on Scarlett in that specific episode, but I was excited as hell the whole way through.
