It is astounding to me that everyone acknowledged Justin's trauma but seems to skip over the trauma that Brian suffered. Michael only mentions it once and Debbie dismissed it. For all his bravado, Brian is still a young man that witnessed a violence perpetrated on someone he loves and nobody thinks that his withdrawal and self-destructive behavior is a trauma response? This will mess him up even further because Jennifer confirmed what he thought all along. My poor boy with his bruised soul that everyone stomps on 💔 😱

I didn't even consider the fact that Debbie and Jennifer convinced Justin to go!

I agree that Justin is by far the strongest of the bunch which is funny considering he's so much younger. Definitely hard seeing him like this. Melanie and Brain ARE so much a like is so many ways! That's probably partly why Lindsey was attracted to her with Brian being someone she loves so much.

save the last dance for me really was the perfect song choice for the prom dance and i love that you knew it and loved it. glad i can share the original music choices with you and you get to experience both. these arc of episodes really are some of my absolute favorites so i love that you’re getting to watch them. thank you ophelia for sponsoring them. so beyond happy justin survived! i figured you wouldn’t worry about it since he’s so much older in the picture you use for your qaf recordings lol so it kinda spoiled it for you. that shot in the episode when we first truly see him again at home always makes me emotional. it’s just so good to see him alive. also his “i’m fine, don’t i look it?” is a heartbreaker. he’s trying his best to be okay. poor brian too! god the trauma they both faced. i think it was the guilt that prevented him from telling anyone he went to check on him every night. they kept mentioning that he cut himself off from everyone too. i think he was perhaps worried they would blame him. that’s why it sucks that jennifer did. i’m sure she knows deep down it wasn’t his fault, she knows that chris hobbs has been making justin’s life hell for a while, but i think she was just looking for someone to blame. they don’t address it but i wonder if she too feels a bit to blame since she and debbie convinced justin to go to prom when he didn’t want to. at least justin himself told brian it wasn’t his fault. he really does know him. idk how much he believed him but i’m glad he said it. also brian wearing the bloodied scarf under his clothes is heart wrenching. the fact that they never show justin’s dad at the hospital or in any way affected by what happened to him only makes me hate him more. you just know he wasn’t there. onto happy news - michael and david broke up!!! couldn’t be happier that’s finally over.

I absolutely love this episode. I think it’s so hard to see Justin like this because he’s soooo strong. I easily think he’s the strongest character in the show. Like he’s emotional and sometimes a bit irrational about his emotions, but things just never seem to really get him down. So seeing him like this is so hard. Ted getting fired over a “misunderstanding”
. Maybe it will be a chance to do something a little more exciting, lol. I’m so glad David is gone. And I agree, David did show how immature he was so many times. Especially being this “I’m older than you” “I can take care of you” “don’t worry about anything” kinda guy towards Michael, and then being super immature about things like this. I think it’s funny how alike Melanie and Brian are about things like this and criticizing “straight, conformists” idea. They are super different when it comes to being responsible, but also kinda similar with a lot of their ideas and stuff. Also Brian just always pulls at my heart strings. You can see how much this has affected him and the fact that Justin seems to be the only one who just right away knows what’s up and what he’s thinking says a lot.
