By the end ofLove, Victors second season,almostall of the shows love triangles were perfectly flattened.
Even the Salazar parents decided to reunite at the very, very end of theseason-two finale.
And 20 seconds into season three, we have an answer.
Even his romantic speech doesnt do much to explainwhyhe and Benji are meant to be together.
But when was the last time Benji really supported Victor?
When was the last time these two hadfuntogether?
Have we seen Benji make Victor laugh … ever?
This could be great if not for, um, what happens next.
Benjis driving Victor back home when he notices a drunk-driving checkpoint.
Once again, the fate of their relationship (Venji?)
But Victor and Benji arent the only couple at a crossroads.
It wouldnt be aLove, Victorrelationship without some messy, avoidable miscommunication.
At least these two are getting it out of the way?
At least one couple on this show has their act together, though.
Its not the answer Mia wants, obviously, but its maybe the closure she needs.
Theres one couple I havent gotten to yet because I wanted to save them for last.
We get to watch Lake and Lucy share a heart-to-heart over stolen $400 Champagne.
Their night, as seen through Lakes eyes, is riddled with deeply relatable queer-girl moments.
That split-second shot of Lake blushing as Lucy changes into her hoodie?
The part where they sit side by side on her bed, arguing over whos cooler and prettier?
Been there, too.
The most realistic part, really, is that neither seems sure whether theyre on a date.

Its hard to blame Victor, though hes once again going through it.
Welcome back to Creekwood High!
Victors friendship with Felix continues to be the best part of this show, truly.
And What about you?
Did you wind up getting with my sister?
is a flawless line reading.
While fruitlessly waiting for Victor, Rahim decides to pray.
His mom is precious, and Im excited to see more of his family this season, hopefully.
