Actually...there is hope (GM Texas Part 3 LUCAYA Breakdown) MUST READ!!
THERE ARE SOME THINGS I’M SAYING IN THIS POST I HAVEN’T SEEN ANY WHERE ELSE SO I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO GET THIS MESSAGE OUT.
I said I wasn’t going to watch this before it officially came out but I broke so now you have this…
This post was originally going to contain two lines, “I just watched GM Texas Part 3. I have no idea where the writers are going with this.” But then I stepped back from the video and analyzed/thought about what just happened…and well, that’s wrong.
There’s still hope for Lucaya. Lucas and Maya were awkward on their date for one reason only, and Maya completely proves this by asking Riley, “What do you and Huckleberry usually talk about?” - they’re acting like Riley and Lucas.
Maya knows that Lucas still has feelings for Riley, so she’s trying to act like Riley in attempt to build their “relationship” and have him feel that way about her.
(why else do you think Maya’s denying that her relationship with Lucas is insanely awkward to Riley?).
So Lucas has no choice (because their banter usually works with Maya firing the gun and him retaliating) HE HAS TO ACT LIKE HE DOES WITH RILEY, TO MAYA.
But there’s already a Riley in Lucas’ life, why would he need two Rileys? He needs the Maya of his life. The one who keeps him on his toes, that’s what they were missing on their date.
What Maya doesn’t realize is that Lucas already likes her for her. She doesn’t need to be another Riley.
Lucas doesn’t talk about birthing calves and horses with Maya, he does that with Riley. Maya doesn’t sit there and act all “polite” and “mannerly” (ok, cope with that terminology, my 3am brain can’t come up with a better word), that’s what Riley does. Maya lays down banter and Lucas picks it up, carrying it along. They’ve always done that and it works.
Maya and Lucas are functional as a couple. Just not a “Riley and Lucas” couple…
with the backstories while losing what their relationship needed most to operate.
Maya and Lucas are their own type of couple with banter and making fun of each other but having each other’s best interest in mind, at the end of the day.
This is proven through the clips we get in the episode that mirror the relaxed Lucaya - Maya dumping the smoothie on Lucas’ head and them both smiling after, Maya lightly kicking Lucas in the butt and him responding in the best way possible. That’s them. Not the awkward conversations.
They forgot what it was that made them work so well together. They were trying to be someone they’re not.
