The biggest example of this, so far, is the fallout from the Zoyas admission fraud scandal.
Anyway, the school doesnt want to publicly oust Zoya for fear of cancellation because shes Black.
Likewise, Julien and her father Davis somehow evade serious punishment as well.
What was this all for?
This sends Julien into the most sedated version of PR mode, which includes giving scoops to Gossip Girl.
What are we doing on this show if not tearing other bitches down?
?Thisis the supposed heir to Blair Waldorfs throne???
The writers are also really trying to make this beef between Zoya and Juliens dads happen.
Also, hes extremely handsome and rich.
Shouldnt he be remarried to Irina Shayk or some other gorgeous model by now?
They dont even really have a confrontation and instead direct their anger at their children for inadvertently Parent-Trapping them.
Maybe you two adult men should just not be so emotionally triggered at your old ages?
Davis eventually apologizes to Julien, but God are these dudes annoying!
Also, in my last recap, I described Max as a not-creepy Chuck Bass.
Neither of them are combative or power-hungry enough for this quarrel to come across even slightly entertaining.
Im not sure why this isnt being framed as an extremely petty and hurtful action on her part.
The art-supplies-for-the-less-fortunate shopping spree that Obie takes Zoya on for a date in this episode was deeply upsetting.
Whats up with these teachers, who cant be older than 30, and their understanding of social media?
How do they not know if Gossip Girl gets shut down they can easily make another account?
Im still trying to figure out Monet and Lunas relationship with Julien.
Are they getting paid to be so concerned about her personal and professional life?
Why do they care more about her image than she does?
Either of them could easily be the HBIC if they wanted to.
And honestly, it would be more fun to watch because theyre actual bitches.
Does Maxs Chuck Bass impression sound like Ezra Miller to anyone?
