A little bit of underhandedness, a good bit of drama, and a little bit of intriging mystery. Plus some personal accountability for Mr. Tom Swift which is always fun to witness.
I sure hope they elaborate on what's going on with Lino before the end of the season because sadly I would be shocked if this gets a season 2, mainly because the interactions are so middle school drama. The fact that Tom & Mom could come back to the cotillion smiling like nothing happened to keep up appearances, and poor traumatized Lino is nowhere to be seen even... AND Mom gives her whole shpiel to Isaac instead of Lino also being there... Ugh what a waste of potential!!!
I gave it an eight because I definitely enjoyed the episode and i left me wanting more, but the criticisms remain. Also Stop! Just stop letting people who aren't black lead in writing black stories. Maybe they can add something in terms of structure, but in this case that is also a little questionable.
