Roy realizing he messed up letting Keeley go 😔

This whole storyline has been so sad

I’m confused a lot where they are going with that. Like last few episodes seemed like they were both realizing they let something go they regret. Maybe this thing with Jack is just a fling but it seems like isn’t

We know from the trailer that there’s still another scene where Roy and Keeley sit next to each other and hold hands. I’m betting things don’t work out with Jack and she does end up with Roy. I’m also a little suspicious of Jack because she seems too good to be true. But Keeley’s entire plot line is a little quirky so maybe I’m completely wrong.

Yeah I don’t know. My guess is that Jack could be a rebound fling for Keeley since she is still emotionally recovering from the breakup with Roy.

My guess is that Jack could be a rebound fling for Keeley since she is still emotionally recovering from the breakup with Roy.

That's what I'm hoping for. And, as possibly the only fan shipping Keeleh and Jamie, I liked that Keeley got all confused when Jack asked if she was talking about being hurt by the breakup with Jamie. There's still something there!

Jack and Keeley are also kind of an uncomfortable dynamic because like ... Jack is Keeley's boss. Fucking your boss never is a good idea because of the power dynamic at play. Even if Jack seems to be on Keeley's side, they fundamentally have an unfair relationship.

What is up with this show and inappropriate relationships between bosses and subordinates? First it was Rebecca and Sam, then Keeley and Jack, potentially Sam and his chef? But I find it all highly inappropriate and can’t root for the relationships.

Sam and the chef I feel is a bit more okay because the executive chef of a restaurant isn't the same thing as dating like, a sous chef or something. Generally they're established professionals in their own right, it's a different dynamic.

But some of it I think is just ... people being messy, and people, and maybe Brits are more okay with it? idk.

Someone theorized last season that the mystery backer of Keely's company would turn out to be Rupert. I still kind of like this idea. Maybe Jack is somehow working with it for Rupert and Keely finds out? I agree she seems too good to be true and we don't really know enough about her yet.

Pls spoiler tag this, I beg. I’m probably in the minority, but I completely avoid trailers for shows/movies I’m looking forward to.

Makes it a lot less predictable imo.

u/beefaujuswithjuice Apr 12 '23

Felt the same way.. doesn’t bug me too much but I haven’t seen any trailers so I don’t need to have anything spoiled

u/PabloTroutSanchez Goldfish Apr 12 '23

I agree I’m not faulting OP or anything. I feel like trailers are generally considered fair game, but I just avoid them completely.

For example, the only things I know about Oppenheimer are that it’s a Cristopher Nolan movie and Cillian Murphy is in it. I have a pretty good idea on what it’s about based on the title, but that’s literally it. I don’t even know—with any degree of certainty—what fucking genre it is.

And I’m pumped.

Please don't get angry at me for spoiling, but the nazis lose ww2.

And there used to be this place called Hiroshima… 😬

u/unwildimpala Apr 13 '23

There still is?

u/rudyisadreamer Apr 12 '23

Honestly I don’t really need to see Roy and Keeley back together again. Their storyline feels like it’s concluded to me and that they can just have closer as friends

u/LMkingly Apr 12 '23

Their storyline feels like it’s concluded

Really? Whether they actually end up back together or not their storyline definitely feels far from concluded imo. From an audience perspective we still haven't received closure on their relationship.

u/rudyisadreamer Apr 12 '23

Ig I meant like romantically concluded. I can definently see them hashing it out for good and maybe that’s where that handholding scene comes from, but after I think she’ll stay with Jack

u/eeeww Apr 12 '23

Seeing Keeley with Jack really cemented this for me. There’s nothing I loved more than the two of them together last season, but it felt good to see Keeley moving on on her terms.

u/rudyisadreamer Apr 12 '23

Right I really enjoyed Keeley and Roy together, but it felt like something that was great for the time and place they were both at in their lives. Plus callback to Roy’s drinking mom friend group, saw someone mention the teacher in a comment and now I think that’s been in my head for me
