Needs Some Introduction

'Euphoria' S03E04 “Kitty Likes to Dance” plus 'Widows Bay', 'Margo' and 'Half Man'


Listen Later

Victor and Darren discuss Euphoria season 4 episode 4 (“Kitty Likes to Dance”), focusing on themes of performance, commodification, and control across storylines, while disagreeing on what works: they critique Jules’ sabotaged art assignment for a network-style show, Lexi’s thin integration, Nate’s aimlessness, and debate whether Kitty’s ordeal reads as coercion or grimly expected “part of the job.” They praise the Cassie/Maddie influencer-party sequence and break down Ru’s DEA-informant plot, including the poker scene, Magic’s suspicions, the wiretap, and Lori’s crew robbing Alamo’s club in retaliation for the parrot’s death, plus worries about missing dancers. They also plug the new Patreon (The Boys catch-up, Nolan/Batman Begins talk), announce weekly coverage of Widows Bay, and briefly praise Margot Has Money Troubles episode’s Vegas wedding while finding Half Man episode 2 disturbing and potentially one-note; they mention Freaky Tales featuring Angus Cloud and note missing Labyrinth-style music in Euphoria.
