Isnt it exciting when a show veers away, however briefly, from its premise?

When Jane is no longer a virgin?

When the Veep is actually the president?

When Emily is, for one glimmering moment,notin Paris?

A totally unnecessary lie!

Mathieu couldve dumped her for some reason that had nothing to do with his overhearing her conversation with Gabriel!

For instance, he couldve realized her personality was bad.

Camille, newly single and ignoring Emilys counsel (good call), invites herself to Saint-Tropez.

At the hotel, Emily runs into a Mr. Dupri, who gushes over herringardeluggage.

He swears he and Pierre go way back.

Dupri models with the suitcase, posts it on his own Instagram, and the shot quickly goes viral.

But Emily does not know this, for Emily knows nothing … Emily frolics around Saint-Tropez.

Given the opportunity to do anything interesting at all, she takes a bunch of selfies.

Naturally, she gets a call from Mathieu telling her to take down the Dupri photo immediately.

Emily, are you really that clueless?

Emily still does not understand what the problem is.

At this point, even a dumber person would probably think to Google Pierre + Dupri + what happened?

Im sure the Personal History section of both of their Wikipedias could clear this up for our fair anti-heroine.

He correctly accuses her of being a moron for not knowing this.

Shes very upset to see it isnt on the menu.

Miraculously, her immovable robot hair, as well as her makeup, emerges from this totally unaltered.

As Emily leaves the club, she spots a black-and-white photo of a young Sylvie (!)

No, because Emily is constitutionally opposed to learning anything new or useful, ever.

Back in Paris, Julien capitalizes on Emilys screwup and absence to get into Pierres good graces.

Mindy and Camille arrive.

Mindy learns from the concierge that her dad was actually here two weeks ago and didnt even tell her.

Their estrangement is worse than she realized.

Camille is a hero.

Camille and Mindy want to go to this fantastic-sounding house party.

Emily wants to do brand promotion.

Interesting choice of this series to have someone so lame as its protagonist.

Camille finds a very Eurotrashy guy is that a sheer, zebra-striped button-down undone to his navel?

and just when theyre about to have some fun, Emily insists on interrupting.

EMILY, BLOCK HIS NUMBER.

In her clumsy efforts to do this, she bumps into Sylvie on the dance floor.

Sylvie, as usual, is perfectly attired.

Love that deep green V-neck on her.

Youre just making everything worse for everyone else.

Youre going to have to live with the consequences of your infidelity.

a dirtbag and Sylvies like, actually, thats my husband.

Sylvie is better at living than anyone else on this show, and possibly than anyone Ive ever met.

I wish this show wereSylvie in Paris.

Mindy is distracted, despondent about her dad not speaking to her anymore.

Later that night, Emily and Mindy drunkenly pass out in their hotel bed.

Camille sends an SOS text and Emily goes out to rescue her as the sun is coming up.

The first time he told her he loved her.

Emily says, I know you havent.

I say, Emily, you know she HAS.

That morning, Emily finds Laurant to apologize for her terrible behavior.

He says Sylvie was wild and fun and always had a bikini in her purse, just in case.

WHY are we not watching a show about THIS person??

Emily cant believe it, but I feel like it absolutely tracks with the Sylvie weve met.

husband, so I feel like, again, Sylvie is the only person who knows what shes doing.

Dupris yacht pulls up and the girls bound aboard, claiming they are owed a favor for his trickery.

Shell post itlater,though.
