So about Zack and Ivy in the Boston Tea Party Caper
“Hey! Could you loan me some - gah! Nevermind…”
Idk why, but that line and delivery always makes me laugh.
Ngl, I think it’s a unique way to present the idea that Zack and Ivy are orphans right off the bat to Carmen without making the scene so dramatic and long. Think it could also classify as a little dark humour considering how the show tried to be somewhat lighthearted for the most part.
Also the look Carmen gives before she says “Understood”… yeah, it’s a good juxtaposition of the situation. The line delivery is comedic but the topic and impact is kinda sad to think about. Would have been a good opportunity to shed light on how people use humour to cope (… ahem…. Missing opportunity… AHEM!)
I understand that missing parents is a tough topic to talk about for some or all but I though it was nice they shed light on it without making it too depressing or drag it on for too long.
Granted it would have been interesting to see how them being orphans would have an impact on their personalities in the long term and their relationships with other characters.
