Must we always hear the baby crying?

Article image

Also, why is Joe, supposed literary snob and intellectual, readingTo Kill a Mockingbird?

Joe, you arent in middle school.

like read a novel for adults.

Joe reminds his wife that they did a super-great job with the cops.

Love then latches onto the idea of pinning the whole thing on Matthew, which, duh!

Joe clings to the moral high ground for dear life and is aghast at his wifes Lady Macbeth thing.

Then Love goes back to damsel mode Joes favorite.

Glamma breezes in to say that shessurethe husband did it, You have to watch out for husbands.

Ray would love to have me killed.

If I didnt kill him first.

(Only someone who is foreshadowing what could/will happen to her daughter …

Meanwhile, Joe is at the library.

Now,weknow Joe is a sociopath, but why is Marienne such a dick to him?

Shouldnt she want people to want to volunteer at the library?

Why would it be a bad thing for a young dad to take his kid there daily?

Her tone suggests she thinks shes revealing something so insightful when its a pretty surface-level take, imo.

Just as things are thawing between them, Love gets a call from Glamma: Henry is sick.

It turns out he has measles.

First, we get thestunningrevelation that new parents dont sleep; then that babies cry a lot.

Now the I never knew fear until I was afraid for my baby trope.

Especially not in the third episode.

Now the intriguing question becomes: Which unvaccinated person gave Henry the measles?

Was Joes delinquent mother such an irredeemable villain that she failed to get Joe vaccinated as a child?

Did Glamma neglect to inoculate her precious twins?

Or the most likely scenario was it one of the dopey-earthy-crunchy-no-toxins-allowed Madre Linda parents?

Loves response to this is to tell her mom to get the hell out of her life.

Good-bye, free child care!

Also, the bakery is in the news as the last place Natalie was seen.

Love determines that acting normal is down; time for plan B.

Not for weird reasons!!!

Love is too relieved to even be mad at this.

Because he ALSO has measles.

Hallucination Joe tells Measles Joe to throw on a hoodie and jump the fence.

and regains consciousness … on Matthews couch.

To Matthew, asking him, What were you doing in my backyard?

Theo will not be going back to school until things get sorted out re: Natalie being missing.

But hes having a hard time at home with his stepdad, who allegedly does not communicate.

This is interesting because hes quite the communicator with Joe!

I cannot frame this angel of acetaminophen for MURDER, it would be WRONG.)

Joe tells Matthew he needs to talk to the press to help his image.

I do not understand how a man of Matthews resources doesnt have a lawyer and a crisis manager.

Why are all these people winging it without counsel?

Joe and Love agree that they actuallydontwant to frame their neighbor for murder.

They burn the scarf together.

Detectives find Natalies vitals ring, which Love left on a bathroom sink by the state park.

But just a very minor case they could ride out at grandmas house.

And hessoooosorry and hopes Love wont hold it against them.

Do you think theyll make him pay rent?

Because Loves financial situation is a bit dicier than she was expecting it to be.
