That's all I got. Or to respond to last week's "I guess that's one way to solve a love triangle" comment, "Love triangle is back on the table!"

Oh, other than me wondering after I watched the series a second time (I now regret that) and wondering if Tristan's attempt at making a new Halloween costume was a reference to Sean Teale's League of Legends character (Viego) LOL. That crown looked like a poor attempt at a knockoff of the version of the crown when Viego takes on another character's form. Just saying. I may have played a few Viego games this week to contemplate that. I also learned I am terrible at Viego and will just go back to Janna tyvm.

(Oh, and I find it amusing how many people think Sean Teale is Discount Oscar Isaac now.)

Oh I don’t watch but was tempted to by the last post.. what happened with the throuple??

[squirrels_oh_no]

[Spoiler (click to open)]They introduced a guest throuple (John Stamos and his two boyfriends) on the Gay Week cruise. They barely even mentioned what happened for 30 minutes and then Max was like "I'm a one woman man I want a family and kids yadda yadda" even though Avery was 100% in and Tristan seemed in, so Avery told Tristan to talk to Max, then Tristan never did talk to him and he eventually told Avery he didn't want to share her with anyone and used a weird analogy about his favorite foods being chicken tikka masala and chips and them coming out with chicken tikka masala chips and he ate so much he became sick, basically insinuating too much of a good thing was bad and that Avery was the chips. THEY DIDN'T GIVE US ANY REAL GAY WEEK FUN FUCKERS THEY JUST BROKE IT UP.

But then you watch the preview and it's a new curveball lmao.

What even 😯😯

Thanks for the rundown!

[squirrels_oh_no]

Oh, and I forgot to highlight this part which is critical to explaining why the preview is a complete what the fuck:

[Spoiler (click to open)]Both Tristan and Max have said at times they want a family with kids and that was a reason Max particularly was averse to the throuple arrangement, but the preview is like "But wait!" Last week was "That's one way to solve the love triangle." And next week is "That's one way to solve the wanting a family issue." But like really, you guys weren't using condoms?! You're doctor/nurses on a ship with rampant STIs!

I KNEW HE'D ONLY LET US LIVE FOR A SINGLE DAMN WEEK. Well I shall still enjoy the ship-teasing from the first half of the season at least.

[spellgabbana]

i'm convinced that in the end tristan will realize avery is the tikka, max is the crisps, and together they are the tikka masala chips that he loves so much. you want them both, bro! they are BOTH your favorite and they're the best TOGETHER!!!

[squirrels_oh_no]

Meanwhile, Vivian...

[spellgabbana]

her and rosie!!

[squirrels_oh_no]

At least Rosie has had some appearances, Vivian has just been completely MIA.

[spellgabbana]

if laura was only guest starring, they shouldn't have set it up like she'd be around.

[squirrels_oh_no]

On Reddit, they seem to think maybe she's already been written out, which like... I don't care for Vivian because she doesn't have much personality tbh, but why even introduce her as a wrench in the throuple if you're just going to ignore she exists?

[spellgabbana]

that wouldn't surprise me, but yeah, i expected she was going to be in at least two or three more episodes. maybe on the back half? not that she feels necessary now.

[squirrels_oh_no]

I didn't even check to see if she was in the preview LOL.

But episode 7 being called Oh Daddy! puts episode 8's context in a new perspective for sure LMAO. But what the fuck, the biggest twist of the episode was in the preview for the next episode. I will say this - if they openly put that massive twist in the PREVIEW, the actual episode will be 10000% more insane, especially since it is a fall finale.

[spellgabbana]

HA i didn't think about that. but like if most of these cruises, in the timeline of the show, are a week or even days apart... the preview makes NO sense. [Spoiler (click to open)]i'm already guessing false positive and i hate how frequent those are in tv shows, especially a medical drama?! but it'd be kind of funny if she was like "no, of course it's not either of you for obvious reasons..." and it's some like random hookup she had during early days that they didn't show? I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT WITH THIS SHOW. but i'm sure they'll leave it as some cliff hanger and come back in march like just kidding, moving on.

[squirrels_oh_no]

It's a dream baby!

But girl, you are on a ship that runs rampant weekly with STIs and you're fucking around without condoms?!

This cruise ship exists in a fantasy land because the company would not just park the ship for days while the crew went to a hotel and watched Archer - they'd dump everyone off at 8 AM, load up a new ship full of passengers and food and supplies and gas and new crew, and be pulling out again by 4 PM. And that ship would not have an MRI or CT scanner or whatever they have. The ship I spent time in the medical center on had a really ancient-looking x-ray machine and that was it, and that ship wasn't a tiny one (my cruise had about 2500 passengers + 900 crew). Luckily I didn't need an x-ray, but I did get two IV drips and nothing in there was fancy. The urgent care center in the strip mall next to Walmart has nicer equipment.

And they're all about "seeing the world" when that ship legit only goes to the Mexican Pacific coast. And tbh they only go to the same exact fucking beach in Malibu every time, it just gets decorated differently.

But let's be real, we're not here for the reality, we're here for the drama, and the fact that the show gave us a GLIMPSE at a throuple and then acknowledged that yes, they wanted you to think throuple and not random threesome, was a big step forward for EPISODE 6/7! Most shows would wait until season 5 for even a kiss, but they were making out episode 1! Except Max and Tristan, and the show owes us that stat.
