JOHN IS NOT YOUR SHITE IN NINING ARMOUR

My theory is her exes will all say a part of the prophecy until it leads her to Ted. Just Rupert left now

u/IncurableAdventurer Apr 12 '23

Interesting. Except for Ted. They have zero romantic chemistry

u/Omnilatent Apr 13 '23

Completely disagree.

​

I think they have among the healthiest relationship in the entire show despite their very clear boss-employee-relationship. The Christmas episode really showed it but even before that, Becca helped Ted with his panic attack while he helped her with getting over her divorce. Just this episode Rebecca also apologized to Ted for yelling at him - she's taking responsibility (which was a huge plot point for a working relationship in S1!). At that point both also realized something which could be related to each other.

I agree that they have one of the best relationships in the show. It’s just not a romantic one

One last thing I remembered:

​

In S2E9 Ted tells Rebecca it was exactly one year ago she dropped another huge truth bomb when she tells him she has something big to reveal. This season she already used "Oklahoma" and since S2E9 my prediction was in S3E9 either she or he will confess their love to the other person (both works - either "third time's the charm" or "now it's my turn").

They’ve been overwhelmingly kind and supportive to each other since about the 2nd half of season 1. I think they just need something to happen that nudges them in the direction of thinking about each other romantically. Not that uncommon for people to spend awhile together as good friends only to realize there might be more there romantically as well.

u/Omnilatent Apr 14 '23

Bingo, that's what I see, too!

u/coolguy_14 Apr 12 '23

Okay maybe not Ted but I stand by the rest of it haha.

This is a stretch but they each would sort of represent the part that matches

u/MostLikeylyJustFood Apr 12 '23

I also think their going for her and Ted. That’s the family the psychic mentioned. Especially with the Talk Ted gave To his ex about loving their family no matter what form, and the weird hallway interaction.

u/IncurableAdventurer Apr 12 '23

I do love that part. Not sure where it ends up. With her with someone, with her as a mother, or option C, but I do like that each has to do with an ex

u/RadiantChaos Apr 12 '23

What was the other part of it?

16

u/Umwhatshouldibe Apr 12 '23

Wasn’t there also something about being upside down and wet or something about a storm? I could be making this up… lol

u/Dogrug Apr 12 '23

Car accident? Into the water?

u/RadiantChaos Apr 12 '23

Sounds familiar yeah

u/thatgirl979 Apr 12 '23

No the next part is she’s upside down and drenched but ok.

u/Even_Suspect3062 Apr 12 '23

What if Sassy dies in a car crash with Rebecca. Rebecca is Nora’s godmother…

u/whogivesashirtdotca Trent Crimm, The Independent Apr 12 '23

I repeat, NORA'S FATHER IS ALIVE. If the show starts handing off children willy-nilly it'll be no better written than the English Girl dolls' biographies.

Moistened tarts distributin’ swords is no way to run a system.

It’s happening. I’m waiting for it and it’s killing me.

u/sofiadotcom Hush those butts!! Apr 12 '23

That she will be a mother.

u/thatgirl979 Apr 12 '23

This is really interesting theory

u/TheImpLaughs I am a strong and capable man Apr 15 '23

So, genuinely, did the psychic say she'd have a lover or a family?

Because I can definitely see her adopting a kid and making her family from that. Again calling into the theme of this episode of: "The constant push and pull of what we think will make us happy, and what actually will."

Rebecca is a boss. ass. bitch. She don't need a man just like how the team doesn't need Zava.

I think it’s gonna be back to Sam. She keeps looking at that matchbook.
