The lack of respirators kept pulling me out of the scenes. Especially Maggie with what she already went through. I would have figured she would have been the first to insist on wearing one -- or at least having one on her. I thought that Blake had mentioned temporary guardianship during that conversation before she went into surgery. That's when I got suspicious!

This annoyed me too. They were so worried about getting fired. I would have fired them for not investigating the perp more. When they both looked at each other in wonder like "we can investigate her finances". "Wow, who would have thought of that?" Duh! They needed to be fired in that instant😂

Dixon said that there was an article that said that the tech guy ran in Central Park every morning at 5 AM. The victim probably read that article and hoped to catch him while he was running.

I hate that he found that key... It's going to be awhile before he lets this go!

When I saw who was at the table, I told my husband I was going to be annoyed by the end. Andrew did not disappoint; I was annoyed. It was my birthday too. I had to find a palate cleanser after watching like cake!😀

This seems to be a consensus...I didn't enjoy her character at all. I appreciate that she's Sam W's real-life daughter, but no more lawyering from her...

This is where I am right now. I watched "Pink" first and haven't checked out any of the other eps. Not interested any more -- I really was not a fan of this episode. I wish I had investigated the order to watch before!

I liked the case. It does feel a bit more like the old school episodes. I thought of "Hubris" as well. The scarf was a point that stuck with me too. Establishing that the murder weapon was found at the home of a person that the defendant directed them to whom there was no reason for the defendant to be in contact with. It might not have kept the feminist lawyer off the stand, but I did think it was a point they could have utilized more during their strategy session instead of addressing it in 2 sentences. IANAL but it bugged me.

This. There are not many women who would marry someone in a month. An even smaller number of those would quit their jobs, uproot their lives, and move across country after one month to live with someone who is going to grad school without a job. It's a huge leap of faith that could end up in a horror show--even worse than a quicky wedding. One month isn't enough time for that kind of trust... Hopefully the show will keep this particular scenario in mind when selecting contestants. I know they want the drama but this wasn't even good drama. It was just sad. I do believe that Raven loves him. She loves the idea of having a family too but it seems like they vibed really well. I expect it may not be over yet.

Amen! Maybe that's why they seem to be friends! I knew when she said she didn't wear outfits more than once... I am OK with Raven too. At first, I thought she was completely playing along so she could be on the show, but I think she does care about SK. I think the biggest problem is the timing since he's leaving to go to school. I do think he is her type of guy because once he gets out of school, he would be able to improve her standard of living. At least they don't have weird dynamics (that we have seen).

100%. He keeps flying off the handle so quickly and yelling he's leaving. Yeah, she should have called before going to the club. But really is that a breaking up with her offense? It was kind of a special night with a lot of her girlfriends from the pods there. It's not a complete surprise that they might have wanted to hang out a little longer. I know, right? She's really pretty. But she keeps acting like she is hideous and huge and there's no way Cole could be attracted to her physically. I thought Cole was going to be a total jerk but besides the conversation with Colleen (which was ill-advised, and he has owned up to that), he has been pretty straight forward with Zanab that we have seen. She needs some therapy to help with her self-esteem. I was a little confused as to why Bartise told his family about the abortion conversation. Given the fact that he is very close to his family, I would guess that he knew their opinions. Don't bring that up when they first meet! I'm not sure if it really is the family's business but either way, not during the first meet. Then, his speech before Matt called. Ugh! Nancy needs to run as well!

She was driving me a little crazy. I don't think Cole is the deepest dude there but when she shut him down when he tried to ask probing questions, I kept yelling at the screen, "This is why you aren't married!" She only likes the guys who like dating the cute ballerina. That's a problem. I am not quite as engaged this year. I feel like it will be a messier show, but probably not much for long relationships. It may still be fun to watch...

I kept looking at my watch, thinking there had to be more. Otherwise, I truly wasted that hour. Was there a conclusion to a story that explained anything? No... Was there a cliffhanger? No... Was there a happy come-together moment like NCIS: LA or NCIS: Hawaii? No... Just confusion and irritation... It would have made more sense if, after Anna died, Voight just took off this vest, handed his badge to Halstead, and walked away...

This is a trainwreck! One that I binged in one day! I wonder if the creators of the show considered that the first week of the 2nd trial marriage with the original couples would be such a sh!tstorm? One flaw in this premise (among all the other flaws) is that 3 weeks is a short time and those relationships are likely very stress-free and fun. The new couples are playing with house money. Then you go back to your original mate. The relationship must have been a bit flawed (at least) or the couple wouldn't have been on "The Ultimatum". AND, I don't care what anyone agrees to -- jealousy is going to rear its head when your girlfriend/boyfriend is dating and sleeping in the bed with someone else for 3 weeks. The first week of the second trial marriage is set up to be turbulent and ugly. And it was. I guess that's what we want to see, right? I agree with this. History seemed like the main reason for any of the original couples to stay together. At least Rae got a backbone. I wonder if she was hoping that Jake might come back and choose her? Ding, ding, ding...

I agree with that. Also, I rewatched Kate's flashbacks the morning after and in one of them, it looks like Anthony had no pants on (you can see what looks like his naked hip). Also, he might have put his pants back on to sleep. I have wondered about Kate's past. She didn't seem surprised by anything that occurred beteen her and Anthony. Maybe a little ashamed of her lack of willpower😀 but not unaware of how sex worked. I don't know if Mary broke sex down in detail like that for Kate. I just didn't think she was a virgin. And ironically based on how smitten Anthony is with her, he probably was less concerned about that fact himself. As long as she had the reputation of being a lady, I don't think her being a virgin would mattered either way for him.
