We’re still in the Hamps and Brynn has slept with Erin, so I guess she had a toasty room and doesn’t have to bitch about the cold.
Erin is supposedly making breakfast, but in her own time, when SHE feels like it, when she is ready.
So looks like the Shakshuka is finally happening. Jenna’s getting dragged for wearing diamond bracelets with her sweats, to have breakfast. OMG.
Sai complains about the food, it’s runny eggs in tomato sauce. Then tells Erin on the way out that she didn’t feed her enough.
Brynn talks about her shitty childhood, Erin brags about hers. Literally had no idea that Brynn was bi-racial.
Ubah is trying to expand her sauce business and is looking for investors.
Sai is planning on hosting a Friendsgiving in honor of Brynn, who doesn’t have family to be around for the holidays.

Jessel and what’s-his-name scene, where they’re playing with their toddler twins for two seconds, then they suddenly are gone, and Jessel says they’ll have a good walk. I assume someone was going with them, not sure. They discuss the bougee preschool she wants to send them to, and what’s-his-name is not in agreement, due to cost. She says whatever preschool they go to, determines the kids they become from friends with, and they must be friends with the ‘right’ families so they’re set up to succeed in life? Or something like that. She’s giving me Alex and Simon vibes.
This is the first time the poor dude has been allowed to speak. He tells Jessel that her tone of voice, kind of sucks, and she often comes off the wrong way. I feel like he’s been dying to tell her this. So this dude is never getting laid again, unless of course he dumps her ass. I’m sure they will get divorced but he will not be the one to initiate it.
Jenna and Jessel have apparently made up since the nightie incident, but I can already see there is going to be another issue, since Jenna blabs to Erin that she called them cackling hags. Jenna doesn’t think there’s a mean bone in her body, but I would tend to disagree with that. I think Jessel is a little cold and mean-spirited. Look at how she spoke to her husband and mom in the first episode. Bitching at them for not wiping finger prints from the table?
Then they dive into the no-sex thing, and he defends the dry spell by saying that they don’t have the time.
They end up, sort of, laughing about it, and she tells him “we need to get you laid.” I’m not sure how excited he was about that, honestly.

The Friendsgiving/Brynnsgiving is getting going. Erin is immediately annoyed as soon as she sees Jessel, which I don’t really think is warranted. Pretty sure the ‘cackling hags’ comment, was a joke, and don’t think she meant it to be that much of an insult. Not like any of these ladies actually look like hags. They did kind of all attack her at the diner, where they were all dressed like prostitutes, for complaining about the cold, wi-fi and nightie. Sai was also bitching about not having enough food, and also the cold. just saying.
Erin drags her for the way she reacted about her grandmother passing away. I don’t think she said anything wrong. She seemed to care, and expressed her sympathy. Maybe “I hope today went well” wasn’t the best, in reference to the memorial service, but it wasn’t horrible. You often hear people saying “it was a beautiful service.” I do kind of feel like she and Jenna are the targets. Like nothing that they say or do is right, ever. Erin totally exaggerates how awkward and horrible the grandmother interaction was.
They (Erin, Jenna, Brynn, and Erin) start talking about the ‘cackling hags’ comment, and Ubah has no idea what they’re saying. She thinks it’s one word.
They’re taking this comment way too far, and Jenna the only voice of reason, lets them know she didn’t mean it in THIS bad of a context, that they’re making it out to be. It was a JOKE to describe the way they kind of ganged up on her. I think she is a bitch, but here I am defending her, because that’s what I do when I see someone being treated unfairly.
They coax Brynn to tell the horrific story of her childhood, I mean they coax her, she doesn’t really want to. Sai sort of even taunts her about how she doesn’t have any family. Sai is SUCH A DICK.
