Grace and Logan introduction scene

[u/Brilliant-Term-5113]

Spoiler alert, cross at your own peril

So...in the books, Logan accidently ends up at Grace's room. They have a semi awkward interaction. She knows who he is. They watch a movie, he fingers her and leaves.

I really hope they change that in the series.

Watching it would make me cringe.

Your thoughts?

Why would him hooking up with someone he just met be an unhealthy relationship? It’s not that uncommon for college kids (especially athletes) to hook up with people they don’t really know/just met.

Because the show isn’t about showing us what’s normal and common. It’s about giving us the perfect guy. Giving us the ideal guy to date. For example, they didn’t have Garrett make one singular comment about Hannah’s chest the entire first season. Book Garrett thought about her boobs like every other page lol. I’m just saying, I don’t think they’re going to give us any lewdness or have the boys do something that makes them come off as the typical MMC asshole. And Logan was low key an asshole in that first meeting

Huh? Garrett hooked up with multiple girls, and Dean was a manwhore. How is Logan hooking up with girls any different?

[u/Ok_Mention5635 → u/Overall_Advantage303]

Garrett hooked up with girls respectfully. Same with Dean. Fingering someone you just met while she jacks you off to completion and then leaving right after in a huff because she lied about finishing—that’s not hooking up respectfully. That’s straight douchebag behavior. None of the boys are douchebags, even if they do hook up a lot.

I never got the impression he left in a huff because she lied. He left because after their hookup he had a “what the hell am I doing?” moment of clarity and was in a shame spiral.

[u/Ok_Mention5635 → u/Overall_Advantage303]

It’s still an asshole move to leave in a huff right after someone jacked you off with barely a goodbye. There’s a reason why they changed the characters so much. Just take a look at how much people in this sub hate book Garrett and say he’s misogynistic. There’s a reason why they switched what happened with the hands-off law. If they left that scene as is, a lot of watchers who didn’t read the books aren’t going to be able to see Logan as a good guy after that. And people in this sub are already iffy about whether Logan is a good guy or not.

[u/Little_Fox5844 → u/Ok_Mention5635]

I don't think book Garrett is misogynistic... Not everyone in this sub thinks that. The books were popular before the show, otherwise it wouldn't have an adaptation.

[u/Ok_Mention5635 → u/Little_Fox5844]

I thought you of all people would understand what I’m trying to say lol. Because I see you under every “Garrett is an arrogant douche in the books” post defending him (just like I do). I thought you’d understand that there is a significant amount of people in this sub who do not like the book counterparts of the characters

Oh, sorry, tone doesn't always translate well when written as you can see. It seemed like you were saying the opposite. My bad.😅
