S1 Episode 104 ‘The Spider Web’. Image by Hulu. Copyright 2020.

Lauren and Stef break apart Hulu’s Little Fires Everywhere, Episode 4 "The Spider Web". Unraveled, torn, and controversy, are feelings one could experience after viewing this episode. Our hosts wonder, why is Mia so deeply invested in helping Bebe get Mirabelle back? Why is Elena not revealing her suspicion about Mia’s involvement with Bebe to her best friend, Linda? Is Elena HIDING something more? We question Izzy’s artistic motivation and Pearl’s sudden change of social scene.

Themes of social justice, defending the weak from the strong, are expressed through Mia and privilege vs. underprivileged, are seen through Elena and Linda vs. Bebe. Touchy topics: #adoption, #illegal immigration, #coming out, #relationships, #motherhood and first-time sexual experiences are here as well. “Friendships” seem to be crumbling, as the drama builds and the “web” of lies are beginning to become exposed. Just like a spider web, have these character’s lives been connected at some previous point?

Lauren and Stef give you their opinions, all in their signature Southern style! We’ll have to keep watching to find out!

S1 Episode 103 ‘Seventy Cents’. Image by Hulu. Copyright 2020.

Lauren and Stef break apart Hulu’s Little Fires Everywhere, Episode 3 "Seventy Cents". The episode presents us with the scenario of two separate women being short just seventy cents on their purchases, yet HOW differently the impact on their lives: one being LIFE-Altering, and the other going unnoticed. Our hosts wonder, did Bebe try hard enough to find resources for her baby before giving up? OR are we actually blinded to the struggles of others and also blind to good fortune? Elena advises Izzy to shape her story in ways she wants others to believe. We examine this sentiment, whether this advice is good or bad, and also will it be deeply impactful to the plot of the series moving forward?

Taboo Themes

The taboo themes of privilege, entitlement, and secrets present much to be discussed. Touchy topics:  #illegalImmigration, #hunger, #adoption  #identity #sexualIdentity, #relationships, and #motherhood are here in full force.  A regretful decision has led to the consequence of sorrow for Bebe, and as the drama builds, we must decide if she was ever at fault in her circumstance, and if so, does she deserve redemption? With Mia invested in helping, it leaves us suspicious that the character’s lives been connected at some previous point? BUT HOW?? Lauren and Stef give you their takes. We’ll have to keep watching to find out!

So many good speeches tonight had us remembering why we love these characters and this show so much. Whether it was Twyla and Alexis reminding us that they have one of the best friendships in the Creek or Stevie giving David the real talk, we were getting hit right in the feels for this supersized episode. In between Mike having teary-eyed fits of emotion, Caroline and Mike break down the second to last episode (ever) of Schitt's Creek.

THIS IS US -- "Strangers: Part Two" Episode 418 -- Pictured: (l-r) Justin Hartley as Kevin, Sterling K. Brown as Randall -- (Photo by: Ron Batzdorff/NBC)

This week's episode, This Is Us Season 4 Episode 18, entitled "Strangers, Part 2," gave us the knock-down drag-out between Randall and Kevin we've been waiting to see since the mid-season finale. Last week's big question of, How will the Big 3 find out got answered as soon as Kevin's brain locked in the very un-Rebecca-like phrase 'investment in my future" spilled out of her mouth. Then it was off to the races with Kevin having to deal with a deceptive and smug brother on one side and the news of his impending fatherhood on the other. Sure, other stuff happened, but this is what we tuned in to see.

So, now that the only proof of the brothers making up comes in the form of Rebecca's death-scene about 10 years from now in the show's timeline, we have to wonder. Is that the first time they see each other or will they make up before the scene in Kevin's future-house?

Caroline and Paul dig into that and other questions, like:

* The build-up to this fight has lasted half this season. But was the fight -really- as nuclear as you thought it was going to be?

* If you've listened to this podcast before, then you know that our own twins spent a looooong time in the NICU. So, we ask each other, Did Toby and Kate's return to the NICU and its wall of fame resonate with you?

* And, of course, since this was the season finale, we HAVE to ask each other What do you think happens next season?

Listen in to hear what we have to say about theses and MANY more questions!

This week, Stef and Lauren discuss Hulu's "Little Fires Everywhere, Episode 2 - Seeds and All".   This week's episode focused a lot on the relationship between mothers and daughters.

Listen as we discuss Elena and Mia's first day of working together. Why is Elena so lenient of Mia as an employee?

Meanwhile, we see Izzy face more ridicule at school, and her reaction is explosive. Pearl meets opposition from the school counselor, and we are very intrigued by how she handles it or rather how it's handled for her.

We see a small bridge begin to form between Mia and Elena when Mia rescues Elena from a very awkward book club situation, and the two seem to start building a friendship, but will it last?

Lastly, We discuss the relationships beginning to form between Izzy and Mia as well as Elena and Pearl. Mia does not like the crack she's starting to see in her relationship with Pearl.
