August 29, 2023 2:02: Family
Buckle up, y'all. We are meeting David Nelson, getting more than our fare share of Jane Spring, dealing with the stress of exams, and avoiding our SINGLE ESSAY ASSIGNMENT. But we are also getting some top notch mom moments from Yan Xu, expanding our found family and trying out clubbing, sneaking to the park to see our banned boyfriend(resulting in the murder of every single audience member), and deciding to tell our best friend we are in like with them. It is a rollercoaster of an episode! Join us in doing a deep dive into Heartstopper Season 2 Episode 2 "Family."

But instead we dive right in! Let's talk well done kisses, flirting with our best friend, makeout montages, group sleepovers, and kissing in front of other people for the first time! Join us in squealing over Season Two Episode One "Out!"
