(I should probably do one on episode 2)
Okay, episode just ended like 30 seconds ago, and I have never felt more anxiety for a show in my life.
Jay not showing up? I thought Ryan or Dylan were going to get shot. So glad they didn't.
Also, the way they portrayed the teens (Alex's new friends) was incredibly inaccurate. Maybe it's because I don't live in a city like LA or NYC or anything, but those teens were assholes. If any teen I know was being interrogated by the freaking police, there is no way in hell they would be flashing out their phones like that and making fun of the police. I've never seen teens be that disrespectful.
To be honest, at the beginning scene, I felt more bad for the stepmom than the teens, even though Ella was portrayed as an "evil stepmom." Alex literally just commanded her to fire some poor kid without explanation for Ella to earn Alex's respect.
Also, when Lizzie and Dylan figured out the apple poison, they said Ella wasn't the evil stepmother, she was Cinderella. They criticize the teens for not knowing the fairytales, but they literally just confused Snow White and Cinderella.
I'm really going on a tirade about the teens, huh? I've just never met teenagers so bitchy.
I legitimately thought Kim during the middle of all of that would be the murderer. At first I knew she'd be a suspect later on, they never give that much screentime to a person who wouldn't be a suspect. But I thought that to earn Alex's respect, she'd poison her stepmother that she hated. Seriously, there is no reason why an AP student should have access to chemicals without teacher supervision.
Also Harris and Jasmine? Whoaaaaaa, what??? There is no way they are skimming over that.
Also, low-key agree with that Jewish Richard Gere joke.
I also thought he was talking to Lizzie at first.
Ugh, I also love that Dylan is taking Andy to all the gatherings with Lizzie or work parties, and integrating Andy into his work life, yay.
Lizzie being promoted to second grade detective and the surprise everyone set up for her was really cute, the entire precinct respects her so much.
I don't know why Dylan is supportive of his viral video now. Also I don't understand how that 2010 looking meme would've gone viral.
And this episode is slipping away from me, gotta rewatch it and continue this.... will update later...
