Well, it seems we hadsome divisioninlast weeks episode, didnt we?
As everyone might have guessed, after Kacey talks with Calvin, she is ready to lose her virginity!
She hands out some gift cards for frozen yogurt (Is that where all the froyo shops went?
so the girls will have something to do so she can be one with Cooper.
(Whitney: Oh wow, the wording.)
Her room is decked out in … uh … hellish Disney Adult vibes?
Bela, hesitantly: And … are you looking for feedback?
Kacey says no and they all erupt in a chorus of yays!
When exactly does she want to cry?
At the moment of insertion?
My guess is post.
Unfortunately, when the moment comes, Kacey is ready and Cooper is extremely not ready.
Kacey is ready to toss the twinkle lights forever, so great is her shame.
Alas, no developments on the book or lyrics, but wouldnt you know it?
The lead had to drop out!
Kacey wants it, and Cooper backs her up!
So does this random tech guy who thinks it should be Kacey.
He confesses he didnt feel ready to be her first and was surprised that he felt that way.
Do you know who else is doing it?
I mean, who can blame them?
Talking Proust is among the hottest things a young couple could do, right?
This is also the second Proust mention in as many episodes.
Is there a Proust scholar at Essex?
So much, in fact, that Brian requests a nude to tide him over until their next tryst.
To my delight, Kimberly finds the whole process empowering.
And I do mean this: With a rack like that, I bet it is!
They all approve, but Bela notices one is live and contains her face.
To think, she deleted that Cinco de Mayo post to keep her archive clean.
But surely this will be fine; shell just ask Brian to delete it, right?
Lets go get rid of that pic of your tig ol biddies!
she cries, closing the cafe on an incoming customer.
And thank God for her!
Then he calls her crazy, and Lila has had enough!
Wow, what a perfect use of Lila and Kimberlys skills!
Fuck Brian, wow!
Maybe the group wont be supportive, and thats the character-building journey we need to go on?
Not me calling for the Bechdel test right here in 2025, how 2014 of me!
Yeah, that leaves me with a lot to … not work with.
Girl, you dont want a break, you need one!
), she feels empowered to take a day off.
That breakthrough only took four minutes, though, so they got a lot more to talk about.
Should we talk about your parents divorce?
She goes to him to ask for her day off, and he scoffs.
No quitters on his team!
She insists so hard that she actually quits the team!
Nor is the following panic attack in the quad surprising, to be honest!
Of course, Canaan is there and happy to be her human weighted blanket in the grass.
I know people are still mad at him for kissing Kimberly last season.
I say: They were never gonna happen!!!
Plus, theyre IN COLLEGE!
Of course they are making out with one anothers exes; that is what college is for!
How big do you think this school in rural Vermont is, people?
This rolls right into one of my other episode nitpicks: Taylor.
This news gets Belas FAF radar up because Taylor is the only student she cares about.
She tries to pull an I know whats best, but Taylor is not hearing any of that.
Nor is she taking her carbon monoxide detector, as its constant beeping is driving her crazy.
Bela looks concerned, but I say dont let the door hit ya!
She and Arvind talk about his hugely bad reaction to her body count, and he apologizes.
Its a decent apology, though he doesnt understand why his reaction was offensive.
Oh, and hes clean, STI-wise, he tells her before urging her to get an HPV test.
Why didnt she say any of that to Arvind?
Why did she act like he gave her brand-new information about herself?
Kimberly tells her there is a storytelling show at Sips tonight; maybe Bela should check it out.
It might just be that blazer; blazers are powerful.
Shes clearly inspired to work on her own storytelling, which I am actually glad to see!
But Arvind is considerably less thrilled.
I am getting a little bored of this cant have a supportive partner and this job vibe!
Again, there is CHEMISTRY here, but I cant quite imagine its supposed to be real.
I mean I would LOVE a late bisexual arc for Bela, dont get me wrong!
Is it for her to drop that the second she is kind of back?
No lessons learned all season?
Office Hours
Therapys really important.
I think everyone should do it.
I cant, because I am still gathering my mistakes.
Brian: And what are you here for?
Lila: Mostly chime-ins.
So I will eat at Arbys afterward to celebrate.
