This week’s episode of The Summer I Turned Pretty was absolutely unhinged, and I’m breaking down every second of it.
Belly turns 21 working double shifts, while Jeremiah plays walking Uber Eats for his dad’s company.
Laurel refuses to support the wedding, Jeremiah delivers a TED Talk on commitment (like Cabo didn’t happen), and Taylor cancels her NYC internship to pay off her mom’s salon debt. Belly decides not to go to Paris because she doesn’t want to be away from Jeremiah.
Conrad quietly returns to Cousins and spends most of the episode getting trolled by his ex and his brother. His eye roll? Historic.
We’re unpacking food-runner nepotism, awkward office affairs, and whether Jeremiah is in love or just trying to win.
Plus, I’m pitching the Laurel and Susannah Y2K college spin-off that Jenny Han needs to greenlight immediately.
