S02.E02: The Night Girl Finds a Day Boy

Quote

A woman with delayed sleep phase syndrome meets the love of her life. The catch is: he’s awake while the sun is shining and she is not.

This one was strange. Her disorder seemed made up. Or odd in the sense that when I google it, there appears to be treatments. So why? And she also seemed like an ass with the eggs and the lack of the alarm. Meh.

I enjoyed this one, though I too thought this is likely a treatable condition. I loved the actor who played Jordan.

I liked the guy and the girl, not so much. Sorry the world doesn’t run on your weird schedule. And this condition is treatable if you go to a sleep specialist.

I, too, liked the male character far more than the female one in this. She gives him hell because to her, he's not treating her condition as real, but I agree that she was using it as a bit of crutch. She wasn't willing to meet him halfway. He'd stay up half the night to be with her and mess with his own schedule to accommodate her, but she really didn't want to compromise. And not setting her alarm when he made it abundantly clear how important brunch with his mom was to him was really inconsiderate, to say the least. Her selfishness made me wonder what it was that he loved about her so much.

I wondered how they saw a future together with children. As a parent, she’d be quite limited for school activities. Her nighttime habits might get the child on that schedule.

I view some episodes as parables, metaphorical. If the characters said she tried everything and nothing can be treated, why am I supposed to argue otherwise? The premise itself was interesting and I like the idea of people visiting other people’s worlds.
