Not sure if it's been mentioned before but it's a scene recreated almost shot by shot from Monica Vitti in L’avventura



That’s interesting. The scene actual reminded me of what it felt like walking around Italy as a young female. The men come at you from everywhere, usually in pairs.


I read it as threatening too, for the same reason. The big cities were fine and going places with my boyfriend was fine, but I went out for about 15 minutes on my own in a smallish town and it was like every man in town immediately swarmed in and starting hitting on me. I spent years traveling alone in a handful of countries and fended off my share of male attention, but this was my second-worst experience in all that time. (The first was an actual sexual assault by a stranger on the street in the middle of the afternoon. Oh, the joys of traveling as a woman alone.)

Cameron is definitely involved in some Ponzi scheme and wants Ethan to invest. That's the entire point of befriending him again now that he is rich and getting him to Sicily. I also think he wanted to have Ethan cheat as leverage to use against him later on.

I actually like Audrey's character more now.

I thought that scene on the wave runners into the sun set was gay AF. ethan's prob bisexual at least.


I’m confused by everyone jumping to the conclusion that Ethan is gay, when Cameron is the one who kissed Ethan’s face multiple times during this episode. He also told Ethan “you’re a handsome guy, I’d do ya” in the first episode. I mean, they both could be not entirely straight but I’m puzzled that no one has noted Cameron’s distinctly flirtatious behavior and physical overtures with Ethan, since we’re parsing sexualities here.

They were college roommates, right? I wonder if there's a history there?

Also, the piano player. I feel like there's something going on with him too.

Referring to piano player.

Portia was just trying to get lucky. The guy was doing his mating dance.


Portia is such a loser. Just throw your phone away and stop whining!


Those god awful sandals in Italy of all places!! Barf. Everyone time I see her step out in those I cringe.


Her entire wardrobe nauseates me, but it’s Gen Z fashion, and spot on.


Agree, yuck. She has a sticky build like a short 16 yo muscular gymnast or swimmer. What other roles has she played?


That's her body ok?!


Seriously. She looks normal. That’s the point of her character.

Good lord, what is with the Ethan hate? Just because he’s not a bombastic, swaggering fintech bro like Cameron? Or because he’s part Asian?

I suspect the latter.

Though they haven't really done anything with the character yet, so there's not much to know about him at this point. I went into this with high expectations for his role because he was *amazing* in Giri/Haji, but so far his character has just been ehhhhhhhh.

I don’t think he’s gay. For one, when he thought he’d be alone and uninterrupted when watching porn he was watching straight solo woman porn. If he was gay and didn’t think his wife would catch him watching don’t ya think he’d be taking the opp to watch gay porn?

I find him smoking hot. I think people are questioning sexuality because of the lack of sexual interest he has in his wife. Personally, I don’t think he’s gay but there is something going on there that’s inhibiting him

Exactly what a hater

Her entire wardrobe nauseates me, but it’s Gen Z fashion, and spot on.

Why are you body shaming her? Comment on her fashion choices, fine. No need for the body comments.


It’s casting on purpose to put a short stocky single girl with confidence problems in it.
She’s technically a trained dancer by background so those are strong, big muscles!

I interpreted the scene as her feeling gawked at and objectified by men. Obviously in real life it’s not the swarm that was shown but I think many of us know that feeling that there are just eyes on you kind of checking you out. It can make you feel vulnerable and self conscious. In the scene later she says she was tripping out on being a woman last time she had an edible and I think she does have some discomfort with what it is to be a woman in this world. I think this episode focused a lot on the differences between men and women, our roles and how we relate to each other. It seemed like this scene was worked in to show one of those dynamics that occur between men and women. Harper feels discomfort in a way Daphne might not because Harper lives in a world where her marriage is equitable and her husband is a true peer and equal. Daphne is very sure of the innate differences between men and women but is relieved to be a woman; she doesn’t want to be a lone bull elephant.


Hmmmm gender studies 101


She’s been too busy being a liberal feminist to enjoy her body, clothes or looking good. That’s all.
Then she hung out with a woman who’s a mom and does enjoy her body, clothes and looking good while out and is trying it out. That plus the edible results in her blended impression that men are gawking at her and circling in. No cognitive dissonance there since it’s congruent with her feminist view that men are pigs and her new experiment at looking good.

What’s with the waddle walking? Is that acting the character?

I like Ethan a lot. Probably because I married a Cameron.
