Brian and Susan are having difficult times due to an imbalance in what should be a peer activity. I would quietly take them aside and discuss that group work is about sharing ideas and work. I might set up an "every other suggestion" situation. Susan would have her idea implemented in one area, then Brian would have his implemented in another. If they are both working at the same time in different areas, Susan won't feel as pressured to do all of the work. Brian will take more ownership in the assignment.
As they are in different parts of the project I might check with them to see if this is working well. Also to discuss how a group works and then how to blend the topics into the final overall projects.
