    Summary

    She wants to move forward, and she can't go back, and maybe her white-knuckled grip on the steering wheel will make her feel more in control. No, it won't. She's spinning out regardless. That is, until a steady hand covers her own.

     

    Thelma.

    Summary

    It was a fever, okay? Moms get sick. Moms get vulnerable. Moms apparently become highly needy when they're sweating through an old Bowie tee and being emotionally dismantled by reformed (read: still questionable) near-sociopaths with unfinished business and great bone structure. And sure, they're still halfway off the grid, living in the woods. But whatever. Details.

    The real issue is that Emily doesn't seem to care about the kiss (great, let's repress that forever) but she does care, annoyingly, that Stephanie isn't bouncing back from the flu in four days.

    “Elphie, it’s not his baby! It’s yours!”

    Summary

    In the seventies, Wanda decided Westview needed some queer representation. If Agnes hated her husband so much, maybe she’d prefer a wife.
