The entire bluebelly spider library scene is a masterclass in pure comedy gold i cannot properly capture it in words. Whenever im having a bad day i read this scene as a little pick me up.
HOWEVER outside the genious comedy, and incressingly compromising positions these 2 arachnophobes find themselves in, there is a blink and you miss it moment thats actually very sweet.
At this point in the series these 2 DO NOT like each other at all. They have only interacted twice and both times ended with yelling insults at the other. At the beginning of this scene Terron straight up refused to help him because shes also terrified of bugs and was content in watching him suffer, he had to bribe her with something she wanted to get her help.
So now this moment, and the roles have been reverse and the spider is now on Terron, and in her fear she begs him not to let it go down her shirt. Beek didnt have to help her here, the bug is off of him and he doesnt like this person, he couldve ditched her. But he not only attempts to squish the bug (which fails) but he was also mindful of her fear, even in the pure and utter chaos of this moment, he placed his hand to cover the opening of her shirt to prevent the spider from going down it.
And while Terron is definitely having her own personal "Oh" moment here being suddenly pinned by an attractive man with his hand on her chest, i think it wasnt what she was expecting from Beek. She was literally having a bit of a trauma flashback of how shes normally treated. And this guy that Does Not TM like her, whos ALSO scared of bugs (which is why theyre in this stupid situation in the first place) still tried to help her. Definitely a new experience for her.
And then the comedy continues, it is a blink and you miss it moment, but i love that its included.
