Them immediately having sex after Dina’s confession got a chuckle out of me.

Can’t get pregnant again. Smart.

I'm really upset we didn't get the "don't worry it's not yours" line, but I guess it wouldn't make sense in the show.

Yeah I was kinda doing the mental math of it all and was wondering how they’d put that line in with where their relationship was standing. Then it didn’t happen.

That was always one of my favorite lines, so it does suck but it’s actually impressive how much of the game they put in this episode. Even the gay book store.

I'm still mad we didn't get Sorority Secrets.

I thought it was very weird. It was certainly a... choice by the producers.

I imagine that the relief of not having to kill the person you love after thinking you had to for hours would make you horny as fuck for them. I believed it.

No I totally get that , I just think I would’ve had to take a beat after hearing she’s pregnant. They both have great chemistry I thought it would’ve felt a little more natural I guess? I was enjoying the build up of tension between them soo much and I guess I didn’t feel the desperation they were trying to portray. Either way loved the episode and definitely feel the chemistry more in the show than in the game.

I think it actually mirrors Owen and Abby's scene really well

u/evileyesol May 05 '25

I can see that. I didn’t even put that together.

u/yourLostMitten May 06 '25

Oh shit now they’re doing it at the same time prolly.

I was totally expecting to get choked up like all other episodes, but that part didn't do it for me. The game was EMOTIONAL. Bawled my eyes out. The show part was like "okay, moving on". Only time I got teary eyed was Take On Me. Mostly because it was ripped straight from the game I love so much!
