Season 2 of You is on Netflix

I’m only three episodes in but the girl who plays Love is insanely annoying - aggressive, loud, and presumptuous. Ugh. I can’t stand her character.

Same. I liked her as Nell in Haunting of Hill House but she's...not great...in this.

Agree that the woman nextdoor is not his mother. I think that since his mother appeared to him as a ghostly figure during the acid trip, all bruised and, frankly, blue, like a corpse, she died in a domestic violence incident. I do not think he's going to fk the nextdoor neighbor and she turns out to be mommy dearest.

I find it really weird that in a rich town like LA that the Quinn's were the ones who "owned LAPD". They would have to be billionaires to earn that title, which doesn't seem plausible from owning a little store. Even an international brand of health products seems like a stretch to become a billionaire. Why wouldn't Forty and Love have trust funds? Why did Forty have to ask his dad for a measly $100k? He should have that money himself, being the son of the man who apparently has SO much power.

The dad mentioned at the party he paid 1 billion to get 40 into Dartmouth

Where the hell did you pick up the woman next door was his mom?! It’s just another woman, his next victim...

You could say that nicely, no need to curse.

The whole season was setting up "who is Joe's mom" "where is Joe's mom" and she was reading a book by the pool which could foreshadow an explanation about how Joe is really into reading.

He seems to be excited about his relationship with Love and is definitely excited to be a dad. I don't see him cheating on her with the next door neighbor.

I think the exact opposite. In the last season he actually says it’s a prison and he thought this is what he wanted but this is not freedom. His personality will never change and he will always be a predator. He doesn’t want to be with Love but is only with her due to the child.

Well I'm not sure about his relationship with Love but I think he'll be a good dad, and I don't see him cheating on her to be with the next door neighbor. I think the neighbor is his mom.

Dude are you the kind of person that would marry some guy you found in jail via penpal or something?

He's an abusive narcissist. He of course will cheat on her, he has no moral compass and Love broke the spell by showing him she had the control. He needs to feel in control to love. He is not in control anymore. And the show imo clearly painted the neighbor as his new target.

I do think it left the door open for mommy dearest to return in some capacity though.

But seriously pp, think about why you are giving the benefit of the doubt to a character that is unquestionably an abusive stalking murderer. That would not all go away in a parent child relationship, it would just manifest in new and different and terrible ways.

We'll find out in a year who the neighbor is! I did some googling and most of the fan theory is that it's his mom.

While I generally agree with this. I think the show suggests that he might have a decent relationship with a child. On occasion he acted altruistically with respect to the boy from the first season and Delilah’s sister. Ultimately he would probably be terrible but I think he would be fine until his child reaches an age to have their own conscience.

because it's just a stupid tv show! You're overthinking it. I don't care what happens in the show, but I am confident that is his mom.

Yes, I agree it’s the mom. The skin looks older on the lady and the last flashback is him going into the boys home so it’s leading up to a reunion between the two.

I haven’t finished the season yet, but I agree with PPs that Love is extremely annoying. The whole needy brother dynamic would have me running for the hills, even if I was a crazy stalker.

I also can’t get past we’re supposed to believe Joe assembled the soundproof glass cage on his own, in his storage unit, with no one noticing. And then allowed the guy to go free. So much suspension of belief in this show. I’m wondering if it’s worth finishing.

Yes, I agree with your post. I was thinking that the next door neighbor is an undercover FBI agent who has been tracking h

One of my friends was friends with a very depressed woman who disappeared for a long time. I think she said a year or two. She came back and said she had been kidnapped and the guy eventually just let her go. She said she was close to committing suicide before it happened. My friend also said she never went to the police. She said the woman is now married with children.

Please explain Forty to me. First of all, his name. Secondly, he HAS to be gay, no? I immediately thought of him as Love’s gay twin brother. When he told her he had met someone, I assumed it was a guy. Come to find out it’s a girl?? Sorry, but no. I can’t suspend disbelief any longer.

I’m on that episode right now and he didn’t say a billion - he said they had to donate a *building* to get Forty in. The dad is so awful.
