The Bravoverse is not equipped to deal with things like, oh, real human pain.
Oh yes, this episode went from low to lower.
Or maybe it went from low to status quo?
Thank you, Radkes all, for your public service.)
So yes, the drama.
The Luke-Ciara drama is slight.
As for everyone else, its real drama.
Let us start with Hannah vs. Kamanda (Amyle?).
(They shared a pair of really treacherous mules.)
Im not sure what this fight is even about.
I think Hannah hates Kyle and thinks Kyle and Amanda are out to get her.
I think its unfair to Amanda to lump the two of them together.
While Amanda had Kyles back in his argument against Hannah, Amanda didnt say anything bad about her.
Hannah is unfairly holding Kyles actions against his girlfriend.
(Can I start a Change.org petition to ban the wordtoxicexcept when talking about the oeuvre of Mx.
Britney Jean Spears?)
Okay, the reason she threw the drink was that Hannah was talking shit about her relationship.
There was a reason.
What seems to be angering Amanda is that Hannah can take no responsibility for her actions.
She sees her outsize reaction to Kyle bringing up the housecleaning as no biggie.
Also, Amanda threw an empty plastic cup at her.
Its not like she made her read the collected tweets of J.K. Rowling.
Its not like she made her watch all ofEmily in Parisin one sitting.
The other problem I have with Hannah this season is it seems like shes amping everything up.
Her delivery both with her housemates and in her confessionals is like shes trying to become a human meme.
Shes no longer behaving like a person; shes trying to play a character.
The fight doesnt really conclude as much as it fades into the air-conditioned chill of the early evening.
(1) Amen.
(2) Dont come for my ultimate crush object like that.
This drama dovetails nicely into Lindsays birthday dinner, which is a big deal to her.
As shes talking about what she expects for her birthday, I can tell this is a trap.
No matter what Steven does, its not going to be enough for Lindsay.
How did you not know I dont like this kind of wine?
Oh, Lindsay says, in a vocal utterance that sounds like she actually said gross.
Remember department stores?)
Lindsay, putting the aggressive in passive-aggressive, keeps saying, Oh, this dinner is lovely.
you’ve got the option to feel the mood curdling.
Finally, Steven says, Is there a problem here?
I worked hard on this, and I want you to be happy.
This is Lindsays problem.
Steven wants credit for what hes done for her birthday, but Lindsay says she wants consistency.
She wants this romance all the time, not just for her birthday.
He finally sees it: He was always set up to fail.
Instead, he gets out his suitcase and packs his bags.
As Steven is packing, she goes to Danielles room, where she continues to complain.
I want to not have to train a man for once in my life, she says.
I dont want to have to tell him what I need.
I want him to anticipate what I need after a year of dating.
Yes, its only been a year.
What Lindsay wants, apparently, is a telepath.
She wants someone who can read her mind, and she is never going to get that.
The Mariana Trench of her needs will never be filled.
(Alright, everyone, heres one for the road.)
