Yeah she may be taking the "advice" from Daphne and seeing how she messes with Cam and manipulates him to see if she can get some "fire" back in their relationship by getting Ethan to "care" and such

 

I love your giant pupils

 

I hope the final episode is three hours

 

It's funny that Ethan cheating would have been more emotionally healthy than everything else he's done

 

I watched this thinking it was the last episode and when it had about 10 minutes left had no clue why nothing bigger was happening.

 

so greg is the cowboy in that picture quentin was talking about right? seems like tanya is being set up to cheat on greg to annul the prenup?

 

Yes, either that or he is hiring them to kill her and they split the funds, but that is doubtful.

 

I think I am to the point where I'd be surprised if any of the major characters died in the finale. Maybe, the grandpa for having a heart attack or something. But I think all the rest of the storylines are smokescreens.

 

yes, but i don't think that's what they're trying to set up with this

 

My other thought is that Lucia will be revealed to be related to Albie, dad and grandpa

 

could definitely see this

 

This season for me somehow feels like everything has been drawn out too long and also that there’s no way they can wrap it up in one more episode. Kind of blows my mind that this was the best they could do to justify Coolidge returning

 

I am enjoying some of the storylines more than a few in season 1, but one advantage season 1 had is that ALL of the storylines were connected to Armond in some way. I suppose that Lucia functions as that in season 2, but it doesn't feel as expertly wound.

 

eh i felt going into the s1 finale "there's no way they can land the plane on all these storylines in one episode" too and yet they did

 

Can I look in your cocaine bag?

 

Accidentally started playing an episode from season one last night instead of the new one and it started on the scene with Paula and Kai talking on the beach at night where it's their backs to camera and their looking out on the water with the moon in frame. They mirror that exact shot in last night's episode with Albie and Lucia. Pretty cool that it's just the reverse, before it was the local guy/ lower status worker with the privileged girl on vacation and this time it's the guy on vacation and the local girl/ lower status worker.

Big stretch here, but just a thought after noticing that. Paula in the first season isn't as high status as the family she came with, maybe Lucia not as low status as she seems. Maybe the guy chasing her is her brother and they're from a well-off family and he's like wtf you need to come home.

 

I have faith the finale will wrap everything up. Everything we’ve seen so far doesn’t waste a moment. This season has been great. Surprised to see some complaints

 

People are complaining? Damn. Idk. This season feels like perfect television to me. Like, leftovers season 2 quality. Great characters, great intrigue, great mystery. It barely matters if the ending is great. It most likely won't because expectations get too high but the journey was worth it regardless

Season 1 was great.... this somehow topped it.

 

I like season 1 better so far but am enjoying this a lot, and I really think it’s ok if people don’t find it perfect. Any minor criticism or observation isn’t complaining.

 

Who is even complaining?

 

Yeah I’ve only seen praise for this season. I too adore it.

 

Obviously seems like they're setting up Ethan killing Cam. I could see an irony soaked ending where the murder then reignites the spark between him and Harper. That'd be a bit too on the nose, though, so I hope they switch it up. The other obvious case seems to be Albie killing the "pimp" or whoever that guy is. I could see him witnessing the guy talking with Lucia and then attacking him, and then it all turns out to be a misunderstanding and he was really working with her.
