To quote belly - we are so back!!!!!
She is finally realising that she is still in love with conrad!!!! That episode was everything! My heart hurt for belly at the beginning of the episode. She is seeing that the wedding is not going to be about her and jere, it's about showing off to adams work colleagues. We are seeing the frustrations that designs are being made about the wedding for her, not with her. It's why the only time we have seen her happy while doing wedding prep was with conrad because he was there to support her (just to clarify - I'm not saying jere is not supporting her, I think it is really great that he is doing the internship as it shows some growth.)
Conrad speaking with laurel broke my heart. I need to know if belly and jere will find out that conrad is the reason both parents are on board with the wedding. I think that it will reignite feelings belly has suppressed about him and for jere, he will think that it is another reason he is inferior to conrad in his dad's eyes.
I'm so conflicted about Steven, Taylor and Denise. I love Steven and Taylor, but I also adore Steven and Denise. All I know is it's going to get messy. Taylor just needs to be clear with what she wants. Also, I feel like I'm in a minority in the fact I like Taylor and her mum's storyline. It is the time that we see Taylor be smart and mature. I feel like this show is all about parallels, and I feel like Taylor is a bit like conrad in the sense that us as viewers can see her mature side, but everyone else does not. Both characters are willing to drop everything to support someone they love without being able to communicate how they feel. Maybe that's why Taylor does not like conrad, because he is similar to her. I don't know, I could be reaching.
The last 15 minutes felt like we had the belly from s1 back, with the voice over and the watching old musicals and her being infatuated with conrad at a young age. And then the fin scene! Chefs kiss to lola and chris, my heart was pumping!!!
My thoughts to future eps - i wonder how it's going to play out with conrad finding out about cabo. I wonder if jere is going to find out about adam cheating on susannah with kayleigh and then piece together that he is like his dad? Also, will Steven find out about cabo, and if he does, what is his reaction going to be???
Another side note- I didn't get the chance to post about last week's episode, but I need to put thos out there. There were multiple moments in that ep where conrad sounded like schmidt from new girl. When I heard it, that all I could think. Please let me know if you also thought this, I really need my thoughts on this validated!!!!!
