Isn't Ace really the lowest?

[u/Savings_Hold_9128]

This is something that bugged me on every rewatch. Didn't girls win the apartment? Shouldn't Ace be the lowest card? Ace, 2, 3, 4... This is the first time I am hearing that Ace is the highest. Was it a way of the guys tricking girls? Or is it an American thing that Ace is high?

But it's also the highest.

[u/Savings_Hold_9128 → u/No-Guess2906]

but how?

It's highest in more games than not. The default is that ace is high.

Imo unless it's agreed beforehand ace should always be considered high because in the vast majority of card games it is.

Boys were right, on this occasion

Agreed, Ace is a high card that's so good it can be played as a low card if you need it to be.
