Bette sits outside in her bathing suit. She says, "Jesus, it feels like fucking high school."

Picture of a desktop computer screen, with OurChart.com pulled up on a browser window. It is showing Grace's profile, with a series of headshots of her.

A brunette sits in a chair across from Max (whose back is to the camera). "There are pretty much no butch women in LA."

Helena (holding a beverage) and Alice start to stand up from couches in a fancy room. Alice says, "I hate the fucking midwest!"

Kit's record album, featuring a picture of her spread out on a bed.

Looking through a windshield of a car, where a single foot is sticking up in the air as sexy shenanigans between Shane and Paige carry on inside. Subtitles read, "[Panting and moaning]"

  1. The amount of hassle it would save if Paige and Kit and the show were allowed to know what bisexuality is

  2. That opening scene with Jenny and Sounder is definitely an homage to Carrie (the movie)–there’s a scene where one of the characters visits Carrie’s grave in a nightmare and her hand reaches up from the grave to grab them. I haven’t seen Carrie in so long though that I can’t remember why that parallel would make sense. It’s probably foreshadowing Tina’s fiancee in Gen Q, lol.

  3. A money on the bed scene is a gross trope and this might be the worst instance of it
