Welcome to the seventh recap of the second season of Faking It, a cartoon about an intrepid girl explorer who always matches her toenail polish to her fingernail polish from the network that brought you Kevin Seal, Sportin’ Fool.Â
We open in the hallowed hallways of Blue Oasis Square Dance Superfresh High School, where Karma and Amy are swapping spit about their current life situations. Karma’s craving a Girl’s Night but Amy can’t do it because she’s going on a date with Reagan to “Communal,” that Hot New Restaurant where you share everything.
Karma: But you hate sharing!
Amy: I know! And yet I’m weirdly looking forward to it.
Karma: ‘Cause you’re going with Reagan your new girlfriend!
Amy says Reagan’s not her girlfriend yet JEEZ MOM!!! Karma suggests they make their twosome into a double date, but Amy declines, saying two weeks is too early for a Meet the Friends episode.
Karma: But you’ve at least told her all about me, right?
Amy: Are you serious? I’ve told her tons about you. I’m always like Karma this, Karma that. She can’t wait to meet you. And she will, as soon as I decide I really like her.
Right.
Cut to Amy telling Reagan that she “really likes her” as they roll around in bed sticking their tongues down each other’s throats all sexy-like.
In fact, this makeout sesh is so hot/heavy that pretty soon they topple onto the floor, where Amy warns Reagan that if they make too much noise, Mom might start noticing that Reagan’s been sneaking in Dawson Leary style.
Apparently Amy just met all of Reagan’s friends, ’cause they keep texting her to say how much they loved meeting Amy. She’s a very good bowler. However, somehow Reagan and Amy have managed to maintain conversation for the past two weeks without Amy ever talking about her own friends:
Reagan: When I meet your friends I’m really gonna have to bring my A-Game. You do have friends, right? You haven’t mentioned any. Did you kill them all? I just wanna ask that up front.
Amy: Of course I have friends! They’re busy studying! Midterms. Besides, I want you all to myself.
Then Amy smashes her mouth into Reagan’s mouth while tipping over the bedside photo of Karmy. Probably after this cut they started scissoring and having hot monkey sex and we’ll never get to see it!
Cut to the Hungry Harry Fighter Martial Arts Punchout Club, where Shane and Duke are rolling around in their skivvies like a homoerotic Fruit of the Loom commercial. Or, I guess, a Fruit of the Loom commercial.
Shane’s wishing he and Duke could spend time together outside of the gym. For example, he’d like to be where the people are. He’d like to see, like to see them dancing (like a bunch of homosexuals). How hard is that, Duke? Why can’t you and Shane walk around on those — what’s that word again? — FEEET? Duke insists they can’t be spotted together in public, but Shane really wants Duke to meet his friends, eventually proposing “a group hang.” “I’ll tell everyone you’re my trainer,” Shane offers. “Nobody will suspect a thing!”
Cut to the Fun Books And Food With Tables Place where Shane and Liam are stocking up on liquids for the long winter and trying to figure out what’s happening Saturday night. Everybody’s got a date, it seems, and Shane wants everybody’s dates to smash together and become one big giant group hang so that his date doesn’t feel like a real date! Unfortunately, Liam explains that double dating has been veto’ed by Amy, who says it’s too early for Reagan to meet her friends.
Karma pops up and says that she’s giving Amy space until Amy feels good and ready for her to meet Reagan. This seems a bit fishy to Shane, but more importantly, offers him an opportunity to re-brand everybody’s evening into a Group Hang.
Shane: Have to say I’m not so sure if this whole “giving Amy space” plan is the right move.
Karma: What do you mean?
Shane: I mean that while you’re off giving her space, Reagan could be burrowing herself deeper into Amy’s love nest. Lesbians move fast and they are viscously territorial.
Karma: Amy would never date anyone like that. Are you messing with me?
Shane: Fine, if you think being a former fake lesbian makes you an expert on the gay community, be my guest, take your chances.
Alternately, Shane suggests that Karma and Liam just show up at Canoodle Communal with their Caboodles and show Reagan that when it comes to Amy, Karma “is the free gift with purchase.” You know, it’ll be a “group hang” with the lezzers and the buttsex trainer and the Artist Man. Fun for the whole family!
Cut to another hallowed hallway, where Theo’s being sketchy on the phone, saying, “I’m trying, I’m trying. I need more time! Gotta go.” Obviously he’s an undercover cop trying to find out who is selling drugs to innocent children. Right?
Then Lauren shows up wanting a status update on their relationship pronto because Lauren has her shit on lock. She starts by dumping a bunch of exposition upon us in the style of a relationship conversation: Theo and Lauren have kissed, enjoy lunch semi-regularly, and occasionally converse with gleeful emojis.
Theo: Look, I like you Lauren, but I’m not looking for anything serious —
Lauren: Well, who said I’m looking for anything serious? Especially with you! I don’t even know if you’re even boyfriend material. So, to figure that out, you’re taking me out to dinner Saturday. To someplace nice, you lose points if it’s a chain restaurant.
HEAD BITCH IN CHARGE.
Cut to Canoodle Communal Poodle Pony Cafe, where Amy and Reagan are being cute sarcastic girlfriends with shiny shiny shiny hair:
Waiter: All dishes are communal, just like your table.
Reagan: So how does this work? You bring me a dish and I eat it all myself?
Waiter: No, here at Communal we encourage a communal dining experience.
Amy: OHHH, okay, so we get this table all to ourselves?
Waiter: No, it’s communal dining. Communal.
Reagan: What is this place called again?
Amy’s gushing over how much she loves food and making fun of people, which means this date is already a success. Plus the sexual tension between these two is throbbing, truly.
But before they can make sweet eyeball love to each other, Shane and Duke show up. Hey, better than sharing the table with a bunch of strangers though amirite!?! Ladies?
Amy’s horrified to see a familiar face in her unfamiliar territory but not nearly as horrified as she is when Karma and Liam show up!
Reagan’s oozing with happiness and delight about finally getting to meet Amy’s friends.
Reagan: This is so fun! I was just telling Amy I wanted to meet her friends!
Karma: You were?
Reagan: She did the whole meet and greet with my friends, it seemed only fair. Sorry, I didn’t catch your name?
Karma: Oh, I’m Karma —
Reagan: Nice to meet you, Carmen!
Womp womp. AS IF. I WISH IT WAS CARMEN.
Karma’s clearly miffed that Amy’s not said a word about her to Reagan, and is giving her a death glare while everybody else is giving her a “seriously?” glare and Duke is probably thinking about protein shakes.
Then, just in case everybody wasn’t already feeling as awkward as a group hang can possibly feel, Lauren and Theo show up!
Lauren: You get an A for location, and an F for clientele.
Cut to thirty seconds later, when Karma yanks Amy out of the communal meal party to have a little chat in the bathroom. Reagan gives Liam a “what the fuck?” look and Liam gives Reagan a “YUP” look, which is good practice because they’ll probably be spending the next six months to a year giving each other “seriously what’s up with our girlfriends” looks.
Karma’s livid that Reagan’s unaware of her existence, but Amy insists their relationship was just too complicated for words! You know, like how they’re best friends who do everything together and Amy used to be in love with Karma.
Karma: USED to be?
(Amy shrugs)
Karma: (unconvincingly) It’s great we’re getting past that.
Amy: I know, and it’s because of Reagan! I really like her and I didn’t want to scare her away.
Firstly: HALLELUJAH AMY ISN’T IN LOVE WITH KARMA ANYMORE!
Secondly: Karma and Amy maturely decide to “start over” and Karma tells Amy that she’s sure if Amy loves Reagan that she’ll love Reagan too. That’s sweet.
Meanwhile at the communal love table, Reagan and Liam are trying to figure out where they recognize each other from. This means we’re only moments away from Reagan remembering that she was handing out olives on tiny pieces of bread at that party where Amy threw water on his face and said he’d slept with her best friend!
Liam: Do you go to Hester?
Reagan: No.. do you go to lesbian karaoke?
Liam: That’s a thing?
Reagan: It’s like regular karaoke except everybody sings P!nk.
In other news, Shane’s trying to convince Duke to come out to his open-minded accepting friends and Lauren’s quizzing Theo on his family’s medical history.
Reagan suddenly realizes where she knows Liam from — that engagement party! Liam’s eager to end that convo before it starts, a desire complicated by Amy and Karma’s sudden return to the table and by Amy’s mutual interest in stuffing that story into the gullet of a large bird and burying it underground where nobody will ever find it in a million trillion years.
Karma can’t stop telling Karmy stories and Reagan’s starting to feel really weird about not knowing this girl existed. Reagan puts a territorial arm around Amy, which I honestly love because I’m demented and codependent.
Reagan: It seems like you guys go pretty far back, I can’t believe you never mentioned her once, shrimp girl.
Amy: That’s my nickname, she calls me that because I love shrimp.
Karma: Yeah. I know that you love shrimp. And we do go back. Way way back. To kindergarten. If you thought that Sam Alamo story was good, you should hear about the time we dyed our hair with Kool-Aid!
Theo’s holding it down with Lauren, making shit up about his family history. For example, he says that he was left on a doorstep in a basket and is now the son of a preacher man. I love him.
When Duke refuses to acknowledge his gay feelings for Shane to the waiter — because waitstaff is where people usually like to begin the coming out process — Shane retaliates by flirting shamelessly with the waiter. Then Duke retaliates by flirting shamelessly with Lauren, which makes Theo jealous, so basically everybody is having a terrible time. I hope some of that food is Kraft dinner, I don’t know what else could redeem this evening.
Then Karma apologizes to Reagan for “hogging the mike” and asks how Amy and Reagan met. Um, doesn’t Karma think they met at the Underground Dance Party rave? I thought we’ve been through this.
Reagan: Well, Amy and I —
Amy: Uh, Karma, look — mushrooms!
Reagan:Â Lemme guess, you guys have a special thing about mushrooms.
Karma: Not exactly a special thing, it’s just that I hate mushrooms and Amy loves them.
Reagan: Why don’t you try some of this kale, Amy?
Karma: Oh no, Amy hates kale. Luckily, she has all of these mushrooms!
Reagan: It’s funny, Amy’s never mentioned mushrooms before, so how much could she really love them?
Karma: Trust me, Amy loves mushrooms. Kale could never compare.
Shane: Experiment with both!
Liam: I just think everyone should eat what’s in front of them and not share anything.
Theo: He’s right, everyone should leave other people’s dishes alone.
Lauren:Â There’s nothing wrong with changing your mind once you’ve already ordered.
Duke: You should all try the kale. It’s full of antioxidants.
These people are really beautiful tonight. All of them. I want to hold their faces in my palms and squeeze their faces and say YOU ARE ALL SO BEAUTIFUL TONIGHT.
Anyhow, to settle this situation once and for all, Amy shovels some kale into her mouth, which makes Reagan very happy, but then she’s a little less happy when Amy starts choking and freaking out! Karma’s livid — the kale must have been cooked in peanut oil and Amy is deathly allergic! — and everybody is freaking out,  especially Reagan, but then Karma fixes it by stabbing Amy with an epi pen.
Reagan’s officially had exactly enough and gets up to leave. Amy wants to know where she’s going.
Reagan: Amy, yesterday I had no idea you had any friends at all but apparently you have this best friend Karm-AAAA who you share tons of history with and who carries your epi pen, so to answer your question, I’m leaving.
But before Reagan can leave, there’s still so much more damage to be done!
Amy: I’m sorry, I didn’t know how to tell you —
Karma: There’s no need to get territorial. Amy can have a best friend.
Reagan: I’m territorial? I’m surprised you haven’t peed on her yet, you act more like a jealous ex than a best friend.
Lauren: Well, she kinda is.(awkward pause)
Lauren: Did you not tell her?
Lauren:Â What I can not keep track of who knows what anymore.
Reagan: You two were a couple?
Amy: No! Sort of —
Karma: We were faking being lesbians to be popular.
Shane: Good save.
Reagan: You were a fake lesbian?
Amy: No, Karma was faking it, I — I um —
(pause)
Reagan: You’re in love with her. That’s it, I’m leaving.
Throughout all of this, the only person retaining any semblance of sanity has been, much to my misandrist chagrin, Liam Booker. Amy’s still in shock and Karma’s trying to fix everything by making Amy happy about donuts. Liam interrupts to tell Karma that she needs to slow her roll.
Liam: Karma, we get it, you know all of Amy’s favorite foods. But can’t you see she’s really into Reagan?
Liam implores Amy to chase her woman and save the day for love and romance! Amy valiantly rises to the occasion and heads out, but Karma wants to come too! Liam yanks Karma back to the table and begs her to give Amy space. Karma HATES SPACE. She runs out of the restaurant.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the table, the waiter gives Shane a free dessert, which inspires Duke to ask Lauren if she’d like to get the hell out of this place.
Theo: No way! I brought her here, I’m taking her home.
Duke: You know I’m a black belt in four martial arts, right?
Theo: I’m a black belt too. In ass-whooping.
This pleases Lauren’s peach and thus she throws her arms around Theo, thrilled to make sweet mouthlove to him forevermore.
What about Duke, Theo wants to know, but Lauren brushes it off, “Oh, he’s obviously gay and on a date with Shane.” Duke’s horrified to have his homosexuality out there on the table like all the kale and mushrooms, so he storms out. Theo and Lauren blissfully bust the pop stand, leaving a sad Liam and a sad Shane all alone at a large table for communal eating.
“Group hang, awesome,” says Liam, flashing a thumbs up to his pal cross-table.
Firstly, this is Reagan’s vehicle:
So, Reagan’s about to get into her bomb hot lesbian truck when Amy catches up to her. Amy begs her to stay! Amy says she can explain! But Reagan’s not gonna chase somebody around who’s hard up for another lady.
Amy: I’m not in love with Karma anymore.
Reagan: Then why didn’t you tell me about her? and why did you freak out when I tried to tell her about us? I can’t do this if Karma’s gonna be lingering in the background.
Amy insists that Karma won’t always be lingering in the background, at which point Reagan points out that Karma is actually literally lingering in the background at this exact moment.
This is the first time in the history of their friendship that either of them have had a significant other, which’s hard enough for best friends to deal with, even without the Amy-liking-Karma-stuff. But Amy just needs Karma to butt out.
Amy: What are you doing here?
Karma: I just wanted to explain, look Reagan we’ve been best friends since —
Amy: Karma, I’ve got this!
Karma says she’s just trying to help and Amy’s like, welp, you are absolutely not helping, get out of my face! Karma, saddened, recedes.
Amy, not skipping a beat, turns to Reagan, apologizes, and explains:
Amy: My feelings for her are complicated, we have a past, but I want a future with you. But she’s right, she’s always gonna be a part of my life and you’ve gotta be okay with that if you’re gonna be my girlfr—
Reagan smiles – did she just say girlfriend? Amy gets embarrassed but Reagan saves the moment by accepting the offer of girlfriendhood, citing Amy’s willingness to die for her via Kale as a situation that Reagan would be rude to ignore. After double-checking that Reagan didn’t have any of the poison kale, the two girls begin kissing with tongue.
Back at the Super Muscle Gym, Duke’s punching a punching bag with his man hands when Shane shows up for a screaming match! Shane can’t get down with closet cases and Duke can’t get down with coming out and Shane doesn’t think Duke should feel ashamed of his hot burning man-love.
Duke: Look, I’d love to kiss you in the middle of Times Square, but I can’t. It’s not about being ashamed. I’ve known I was gay since I was 11, but I’ve known I wanted to be a pro MMA fighter since I was in pre-school… I believe it’s what I was put on this earth to do and I’m so close I can taste it. I just have to land some sponsorships.
But Duke can’t promise that he’ll come out after securing sponsorships, either. He doesn’t want to lose Shane, but understands if it’s not gonna work.
Meanwhile, Karma and Liam are sitting in Liam’s truck, thinking of days gone by, bluebirds and sunflowers. Karma feels stupid. Liam feels Over It.
Karma: I just wanted to help Amy move on.
Liam: Yeah, well maybe she’s not the one who needs to.
Liam doesn’t think Karma can handle the idea of Amy loving anybody else as much as she loves Karma, but Karma insists she just wants Amy to be happy, like she’s so so happy with Liam!!
I can’t figure out if Liam’s being a possessive jerk or not, and I’m rendered unable to accurately analyze the situation ’cause even though I’ve never shipped Karmy, I want it to be true that Karma has latent feelings for Amy. Regardless, Karma’s behavior is pretty textbook for a straight girl being forced to share her queer-best-friend-who-has-a-crush-on-her with an actual gay girlfriend. It’s all fun and games until you meet somebody else!
Liam: Are you sure about that? Because sometimes I wonder if I’m the one that you wanna be with.
Karma: What? Of course you are!
Liam: You let your parents think you’re still with Amy, I have to drop you off down the street. I mean I thought this was supposed to be a fresh start.
Karma: It was! It is!
Liam: Then why does it still feel like Amy is your girlfriend and I’m second best?
Karma: That isn’t fair.
Liam: Maybe not. But it’s true.
I actually don’t know why he feels that way — last week, it was Amy who’s plans got cancelled so Karma could hang out with Liam. But regardless — he opens the door for her and tells her “goodnight,” and drives away, leaving her all alone in the street wearing a weird shirt and crying. Awww poor Karma. Feelings are confusing!
Well, that’s all for this week my friends! Next week, Karma’s gonna tell her parents that she’s straight and Amy’s gonna be in a beauty pageant!

Comments
I want to do that thing where I get to quote one of the screen captions to show my enthusiasm for them. But it would seriously be every one of them, and I need to get to bed. :)
aw that’s so nice because doing the captions this time was so hard for some reason, i think maybe ’cause most of the show happened in the same room
Duke needs to google Rob Kearney.
I’ve also never been a #karmy fan – I’m just not that into Karma, she seems like kind of a shallow character. I know heaps of people are interpreting Karma’s behaviour as latent feelings for Amy – with good reason – but I just don’t want it to be true. I’d like to see more focus on Amy and Reagan’s burgeoning relationship than Karma’s possessiveness but also I am a lesbian and lesbian TV addict and I just want every storyline to be ALL THE LESBIANS not jealous straight girls so that’s probably just me.
I guess I’m kind of torn about it though because I do want the show to remain queer-focused (and in particular focused on high school queers) and some kind of dramatic love triangle between Amy/Reagan/Karma would totally do that. So maybe if Karma does have feelings for Amy that’d also be kind of cool. Plus, the scene in the mid-season trailer where Karma is going down on Amy – is this a sign it could be a not-dream? Also I really want to see Amy get laid by a woman, this show is sadly lacking in lesbian sex thus far.
ALSO WHY THE HELL WAS LIAM SO REASONABLE AND LIKEABLE IN THIS EPISODE THEY CAN’T JUST DO THAT
Also also also: Lauren was so bloody funny in this episode – just totally telling it like it is while everyone else curls up in the foetal position with awkwardness. What a killer character.
Yeah, Karma is shallow shallow shallow. At times I can’t decide if the might hold back Amy in the long run or if she will get over herself. But I really hope she too grows.
I… thought Amy was holding a stake in the promo video at the end. Amy the Vampire Slayer.
There was so much kissing in this episode was like making excited pterodactyl noises while watching it. I feel like Reagan and Amy’s relationship is like doomed tho, which makes me sad, bc I don’t care about Karmy at all at this point
This episode made exactly zero sense.
“Seriously not one person asked for more white guys.”
My inner dialogue, every day.
My misandrist side was also pissed that Liam was such a decent person, but damn, thank god for sensibility. Karma was AWKWARD and painful, and Shane was just the worst manipulative little asshole.
Lauren continues to be the best thing about this show, and the lady kisses were very nice (and very much needed). I think this was a great episode all around.
Amy is deathly allergic to nuts and yet happily goes to a communal restaurant and doesn’t check the ingredients of the dishes? That girl is living her lesbian life on the edge!
Yes that’s exactly where my brain went too. Then I had to pull out my well used ‘suspension of disbelief’ mind.
The overly sensitive part of me also felt a little slighted that the new queer lady option was compared to apparently un-tasty, ‘trendy’, allergy inducing kale during their food metaphors.
ME TOO i was so confused why that hadn’t come up like when they were ordering
Finally! Some decent action for Amy – for queer women in general – hooray. I’m cracking out some Ce Ce Peniston in my head as I type. There had better be more of that – and plenty more of it – because they’ve strung us queer ladies on long enough to suddenly go back to a drought of action.
Solid episode overall. Downside would be the inconsistencies with characters. I think trying to show the good sides to characters and well as their flaws just translates into – this week this character is saying shit things, last week they were saying nice/wise things – and vice versa. So we got decent Liam this week. But I don’t feel like they have *shown* great character growth yet, instead they just have them say something nice/sensible as a proxy for growth, but I don’t *feel* it except maybe Karma’s baby steps.
Anyway, Shane is still a shit. They’ve got to be setting him up for a fall from grace (ala Karma) because he hasn’t really been held accountable for his crap. Plus, for someone who is so concerned with her own secret, Lauren outing Duke was pretty crap. Karma got everything she deserved, but I still feel bad for her, probably because she seems the most insecure. Feeling like she’s losing her best friend to a partner (Shane making it worse because he is awful) mixed up with ego and possible attraction – I just wanna shake some sense into her.
I don’t think she was outing Duke. I don’t think she knew they were a secret. After all, they were a secret do no one knew of their relationship.
I was really annoyed with that Duke’s speech that he knew since he was 11. Like Riese said in recap for 203, all non-straight guys here are 100% gay and knew since forever, but the one confused non-straight gal has been de-gayed after being told by her actress that she’s gay, and the only lesbian character is only in the background to be part of someone else’s plot, doesn’t have storyline on her own unlike even that Duke guy.
After all the damage the showrunner did to lesbians, he could at least give similar speech to Reagan. But of course he didn’t bother. Or maybe it’s a statement from him.
BTW, I’ve noticed that Reagan has never been called a lesbian in the show. Some internet articles called her as such, but the same was true for Amy (hell, according to Rita Volk even the showrunner considered her as such), and now men turn her into sexual Hulk, so I’m afraid if they’re not going to mess with that as well. I’ve heard that while filming episode 10 Yvette, Gregg and Katie were seen in sheets on set.
Sorry, not sheets but robes:

http://media.tumblr.com/afde56ec26c7a42478d5201660b621ac/tumblr_inline_ne0i6c08DG1qa92xt.jpg
I also remember Gregg Sulkin saying that we’ll see him naked again in episode 10. Why the lesbian conqueror and the lesbian are both getting naked, but Amy’s nowhere to be seen?
I expect the worst from these writers.
Ugh, wanted to post this pic:
http://media.tumblr.com/579d44881cb10072fcf2b944a990d11a/tumblr_inline_ne0i5yR1DK1qa92xt.png
yes! i didn’t even think about that when duke was giving his speech, but you’re totally spot on. i’m hoping that the stickers all over reagan’s truck are an indicator that she’s gonna be a “i’ve known since the sandbox” lesbian, but maybe i’m being too optimistic.
It also was gross that Duke had to justify why he was confident in his sexuality without being out of the closet. OMIGOD THIS IS WHY YOU DON’T DATE TEENAGERS AS AN ADULT, DUKE. Shane was just so obtuse. Yes – Duke could potentially be out to close friends (no reason why he can’t but that’s his right to decide when and with whom), but getting sponsors relies on conforming to really rigid ideas of masculinity, so nomigod don’t risk your career for a stupid kid.
So, I hope Duke dumps his ass to make a statement about the realities and difficulties of being closeted.
In sheets on set hmmmm interesting. Just tells me that
maybe things won’t really be as they seem to be. I’ll
be tuned in.
Reagan pretty much admitted that she is A in that makeout scene, how fantastic is that!
I’m not really a strong Karmy shipper (even though I still hope for a bisexual Karma), so I was really happy to see Amy with Reagan. She finally got some action! Four for you Amy. You go Amy.
I don’t know how popular/unpopular my opinion is but I find Shane so. annoying. I just can’t stand him. I want more Theo and Lauren and less Shane’s manipulative shit.
No you’re right as far as I am concerned you are
right on the money.
Such a pointless thing, but still bothering me.
Usually deadly allergy plus needing to use an epi-pen results in immediate call 911 drop everything go to the emergency room right now or possibly die. Not chase your girlfriend to the car.
Those things only keep your throat from closing for a little while.
I had the same thought haha
That was my first thought! I was like “Is someone calling 911? Is the rest of this episode gonna be in the hospital?”
Maybe I’m just a mean person, but I’m glad Karma is finally getting the shitty end of the deal. It’s time for Amy to shine in all her lesbian glory.
This was the best episode of this show in a while, but I was pretty disappointed in Yvette Monreal (Reagan) who is very, very lovely but… I want her to be good at the acting, I do. I’m rooting for her. But she is NOT good at the acting. Hoo boy she is not good at the acting.
Thanks for another awesome recap! Especially the adorable metaphor dialogue at dinner, I agree, they were all beautiful there.
Waat?! She wasn’t THAT bad? Maybe her hotness is masking everything, LOL. Although, I was surprised she didn’t comfort Amy better in that scene where she’s chokin’ on the peanuty kale. :/
Gotta love it when the image captions don’t have jukes they just have fangirling :p Amy is finally becoming her own person without Karma controlling her. Yay!
I’ve come to a new theory about the “Woah”,”I know” scene in the mid-season trailer. I think Karma really does go down on Amy. Karma is afraid that Amy is pulling away, and her relationship with Liam isn’t what she thought it would be. Karma then fulfills Amy’s fantasies in order not to lose Amy. The theme of season 2B is that Karma is FAKING being in love with Amy.
If this happens then I am really gonna hate
Karma!
Riese!! LSS! Part of Your World hihihi <3
I’m so tired of Shane acting like “the Gay Messiah who has lived the one true homosexual experience and must shepherd all other queers onto the right path” ™.
I have had my own share of ‘Shanes’ in real life, I don’t need them on tv.
Also does anyone have any theories on Theo’s secret?
I hope Theo is trying to make friends with Liam to investigate Skwerkle drama!!! cue Liam’s trust issues…
I could get behind that.
I’m just ready to see Shane have to finally get
what is coming to him, for all the crappy things
that he has been doing lately.
Reise’s “is this how lesbians have sex?” captions have made their way into my subconscious and now follow me everywhere e.g. taylor swift finger tutting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfWlot6h_JM
I know this show has short episodes, but I wish they had more character development and less “how can we add drama?” moments. I just want Karma and Shane to be people and not caricatures. I do like the focus on Amy. That should continue if they’re going to develop any characters.
Best episode so far.
Welp that was a mess, collegiate level lesbianing type o’ mess.
But umph…Reagan’s truck.
Best line of the show so far. ” I’m territorial??? I’m surprised that you haved pee’d on her to mark your territory” LOL!!!! I soooooo love Reagan and I honestly think she’s what is best for
Amy. Unfortunetly they’ll probably have the writers I mean Amy
and Reagan breakup and for what?? So Amy can get into a relationship with a very selfish and immature child! I love this
show but I see where this is gonna wind up.
I was cracking up over all of the “Here are the white guys you didn’t ask for!” comments.
I loved Reagan’s (totally realistic) reaction when Amy explained what has happened in the recent history of her relationship with Karma. As an outsider to the group, it was fun to see Reagan’s reaction when she heard for the first time a summary of all the crazy that has happened (but what is really just the typical “suspend-your-disbelief” stuff that happens on TV shows).
“This is the first time in the history of their friendship that either of them have had a significant other, which’s hard enough for best friends to deal with, even without the Amy-liking-Karma-stuff.”
What a good point, Riese. Now that you say it like this, I think it’s really great and really interesting to see a story with two best female friends navigate the messy complications of combining/balancing their longtime friendship with their first-time romantic relationships. I don’t know if I’ve ever really seen a story like this with two girls their age, so I’d like the show to keep on exploring this storyline.
