Then last episode needed to be make all three dates awful or perfect. But setting one date aside from the other two (as a less idealized, more realistic version of love and affection) set up a narrative sign post towards that ultimate romantic choice (even as a throwaway line).
Make all dates awful or make all dates perfect and the show has absolutely stuck within narrative parameters. The minute the show made one "better," it stuck a signpost there. Kicking it over and going "ha! fooled you!" is not redefining tropes, it's just bad writing.
But was one réally better? Weren't Nathaniel's and Josh's date very much Nathaniel/Josh-dates and Greg's nondate very much a typical Gregdate?
It's not like that episode stopped people from rooting for any of the guys.-

Wait, with the DNA being a match, can it just be Michael's brother (post surgery) who was once introduced but never really had a point in the story up till now?

I cried when they pulled back from Jessica's doorstep and showed the rest of the Justice League there to support her. Although I was slightly miffed that the producers didn't think to include Sheri, since I don't think there's any way she wouldn't have been there within the fiction of the narrative.
The one black mark on an otherwise stellar episode was Clay telling Hannah that he couldn't forgive her. What does she need your forgiveness for, asshole?
Jessica pulled a similar thing on Alex at his party I think.
I guess someone taking their life leaves you so powerless that 'blaming them' can happen.. Just like all those people who feel suicide is selfish, because you should think of all the people around you. (Personally not something I completely agree on. Sure it's sad how much Hannah's decision affected most of these people, but in the end 'think about the others!' is not the most convincing argument to somebody who's depressed (as well as probably convinced people are better of without her))-

Well an interview said there was an alternate take where he had a line.
Would it have been 'who are you?' 'Jane, at last!'... what?

I was just remembering Lachlan and he would probably be the most logical yet 'surprising' choice.

This is a very interesting piece: https://www.neloukeramati.com/blog/why-michael-cordero-jr-is-still-very-much-alive
Random thought: could there be any chance Dennis actually was Michael?I mean if Michael went undercover maybe he's been around in disguise throughout the last 2 seasons?

I'm actually not convinced Naomi in court was first and foremost thinking of Rebecca's wellbeing, or this is the kind of mother who wants everything to be perfect and is both in denial of the gravity of Bec's issues, as well as trying the hardest to safe the family's name.

Can they at least try to pretend people's quotes are real?
They actually showed post-make-over Courtney talking about Mikey only for the quote to end with current pre-make-over Courtney talking. Sloppy.

So between us never seeing the investor and the foreshadowing of 'please never work for Rupert!' I assume the prediction that Keeley is in fact working for Rupert rings true?
