This week on Agony Art, Sweeney Todd helps us fix bad friendships, Larry David helps our pickles find love at the gym, and Jack and Rose teach us that extramarital affairs are always sinking ships.

Here's all the art we recommended.

(Art we only mentioned in passing, and never intended as a problem-solving recommendation, is in italics.)

Underlined items are this week's top picks from each of our presenters. If you're only going to try one of the pieces of art we mentioned, try these ones first.
