I will say that the most unbelievable part of the entire show is that Harper, as a senior associate, never once mentioned having to check her email. Otherwise, *chef’s kiss*. Can’t wait for season 3!


That's an astute observation. She rides Ethan for being chained to work but doesn't mention work once. Maybe she's not actually a star attorney at her firm. Maybe she's not successful at all and that's why she's so combative and edgy. Insecurity.


No, it's because this is supposed to be an entertaining show, and most legal matters are shit boring. No one wants to see what lawyers do on TV, unless it's criminal cases or people getting it on with colleagues in the office after hours.


They all had busy/important jobs expect Daphne, none of them were ever shown doing calls or answering email. The show was not interested in their professional lives

I'm surprised on Fahy - I thought she had way more outstanding scenes than just that. The whole casual calling Cam from the palazzo and then explaining she and Cam both play games. Her slight freakout the next morning when she tells Harper she was really high and tries to minimize what she said. And she had a similar reaction when Harper told her she thought something happened with Ethan and Cam - before she turned as hard as nails. She was masterful in portraying a woman who is constantly working on keeping her mask from slipping, and just when it does, catching herself and putting it right back on.


+1 her scenes stuck out the most to me this season


Agree

Plaza played the same sarcastic syndicalism role as parks and rec. and all my teenagers. It’s not difficult.


Bingo, she's literally playing herself, down to the dubious Puerto Rican roots. But so many nearly and middle aged millennial women "identify" with her, so they fangirl her. They are also *so* sarcastic and witty, so they rationalize her character cheating on her husband with his college bully as nbd.


And my god do they all hate a happy pretty girl, with a vengeance! It is your typical RBF (resting b@tch face) poster that thinks she’s more intelligent and “worthwhile” than these women that men love. They can’t admit they’d kill for someone to take care of them and show some affection. They are in sexless marriages with men that won’t have sex with them and dream of (if not actually) banging OW’s husbands…kind of like Ethan sticking it to Cam-to get even. It’s their way of getting back at every popular cheerleader/homecoming Queen or nice girl from high school that guys liked.


You nailed it. Like when Harper called Cameron an idiot. Even though she just had a quickie with him, she deluded herself into thinking she’s smarter than he is. Cameron is a Yale graduate. Presumably a multi-millionaire financier. Happily married, SAHM wife and children (the cheating is just empty calories, he clearly loves his wife). The idiot douchebag who set out and successfully conquered her a few days after meeting her. Yep, he’s an idiot. But the resting b**** face sarcastic attorney in a sexless unhappy marriage, successfully brainwashed by bogus NY Times, NPR, and MSNBC hysteria, and wasting what little is left of her fertility extorting corps for sexual harassment settlements — she is totally not an idiot.


I think that you totally missed the writer(s)’ intent, lol. You really think their point was to stick it to educated, well-read, professional women and pump up pretty, pleasant wives? The writer(s) would probably be horrified (or perhaps amused) by your simplistic take.


What gives you the idea Harper was "educated and well read" vis a vis Daphne? Daphne seemed far savvier and measured than snarky teenager Harper (who is actually in her late 30s). What you seem to be suggesting is Daphne is dumb because she's classically gorgeous, in other words beauty x brains are inversely proportional? That's a very sexist and retrograde stereotype -- and a well-worn cope by less attractive people. Reading leftist blogs and watching global warming documentaries on netflix doesn't make you smart. Nor does forgoing children to pursue a bottom feeding legal career. To the contrary, actually.


Daphne literally said she doesn’t watch the news or read, and enjoys trashy reality tv. Sure, she may be “savvy,” and there are other good things about her- she’s fun, loving, and seems like a good mom. but I don’t think there’s any debate that she wouldn’t pride herself on being well read.


You're slipping in misinfo. They clearly read, Cam is a successful and presumably licensed Wall Street shark who graduated from Yale, likely passed the Series 7, and they traveled with books, hence Cam grabbing one as a prop when caught up in the hotel room. And trashy reality TV is no lower rung than the pointless shouting matches on MSNBC and CNN. Obsessively watching or not watching the hysteric mainstream news doesn't suggest anything about intelligence. I'd argue Cam and Daphne were far smarter for not being brainwashed by it, while Harper was so duped by the propaganda she's delaying pregnancy and she's now considered a geriatric and high-risk.


For all we know, cam is a rich legacy who attended Yale because of legacy donor status who similarly benefited from family connections to land him a plum job at some hedge fund. Furthermore, I have a brilliant extremely successful brother in finance who is not well read- he is not into politics etc. just because someone is smart successful and rich (even by their own merit) it doesn’t mean they are intellectual or well read. Cam and daphne may be smart, but they are not particularly intellectual.



Very few of my Ivy League classmates are intellectual in that sense. Most chose hyper-specialized careers that allow little time for other pursuits.




This is true. The most intellectual people I know are, wait for it, LAC alums!

It is you, brunch granny! So you took a break from SATC re-runs to find a different show to watch and completely miss the point of?


DP, but recognize you bullying people on diff threads calling them brunch granny. Get a life.

The point is that by being corrupted and corruptable - they all sort of won and they all sort of lost. Cam is raising someone else's baby as his own. Daphne is crushed every time she's forced to confront her husband's infidelity. And yet they are playful and flirty, and clearly bonded to each other. Harper and Ethan were more serious, and more unhappy, in the beginning. But after adopting their rich friends' ways of living, they were re-bonded with each other, happier together, and talking about going to the Maldives with these friends again. Yet they'd also lost their morals and their fidelity, in exchange for this newfound happiness and rekindled attraction. They all won, they all lost.


Ethan didn’t win anything, he was being played by all sides. He was a mark just like rich Tonya was in both seasons. Cam and Daph successfully orbited and corrupted him and Cam will manage his fortune. It’s inevitable. Harper won a baby, potentially, and prevented or at least postponed an imminent starter marriage divorce.


I totally missed these. What babies are we talking about here?

She half admits she wants kids but they never have sex. Then she has sex with both Cam and Ethan. Final scene while they’re cuddling at the airport her hand is on her belly implying she’s possibly pregnant.


I’m not going to explain the female reproductive cycle, but you don’t know you’re pregnant a day or two after having sex.


Oy vey you are such a nitwit. She hopes she’s pregnant. Is that better, you dunce? Women get pregnant on romantic vacations all the time. I got pregnant on vacation. Her self-satisfied smirk and the way she focuses on her tummy in the final clearly implies pregnancy.



I think you’re seeing what you want to see. Pregnancy obsessed.

Do you not know any childless women aged 35 to 40? They are all pregnancy obsessed. Tick, tock.

+ their ages, pretty much end of the road for her fertility, all the references to children and Cam and Daphne’s kids, focus on male virility, and they had passionate missionary sex. That woman was baby hungry.


Daphne was talking about her kids, not Harper. Harper didn't actually show any interest.

Maybe the implication is that she's going to have a baby - from her husband or her "trainer" - but I think the stronger implication is that by effin around, they got their groove back with each other. Who knows if it will last. Maybe a once a year vacation with some strange will keep them satisfied.


Yes. I read it this way. These two were so out of sync that they weren’t even sure they were on the same page about having a family or not. Not that they’re baby obsessed. And it’s not the end of the road for harpers fertility- she could get pregnant in her mid thirties or very easily affor whatever fertility treatments she needs. Or she could use donor eggs. If they want kids they have the means to bypass fertility issues.

The one childless (longtime married) woman I know well in my mid thirties is ambivalent about having children. Don’t assume everyone wants kids.

I'm curios to talk about carryover character to season 3. Harper? But that's too obvious. Portia? Greg? or maybe Michael Imperioli's character.

I'm a broken record, but I want to see divorced Harper who is trying to find herself, for lack of a better term. Even though we probably saw more of Harper and Ethan during the series I feel like we don't know much about either one of them. I don't really have any interest in Ethan based on what I saw, but I am interested in Harper. I don't think their marriage lasts after this trip.

Yeah. Maybe white lotus III can be another Eat Pray Love in east Asia with the lovely, charismatic and energetic Harper.
