Yep, still liking it ...

- Frankie is a whiny, emo, ASSHOLE ... but she could still tap it.  I'mma be honest about it.  I wouldn't take her out in public ... but I would take her.

- Tess and Lou are quickly becoming my favorite ship.  I was giving Lou some serious side-eye at the beginning of the episode, but by the end of the episode all was forgiven and I was squeeing with delight when Lou finally ... uh, shall we say 'took the plunge'.  Also, they always get the funniest material.  Tess doing the interview had me LMAO.  *sigh*  Tess.  I heart her so much.

- I also like Cat and Lady!Cop (Sam?) because they were adorable awkward instead of painfully awkward this week.  Lady!Cop is actually really funny, and reasonable (must be such a nice change for Cat after Frankie), and chivalrous.  Plus, I like her swagger and the fact that she makes Cat smile.  I haven't given up on Frankie/Cat as an endgame, but I'm fully onboard with Cat/Lady!Cop for the foreseeable future.

- I think Frankie/Sadie is going to be interesting, if only for the fact that Sadie seems as insane as Frankie is.  I feel like their destructive brand of crazy should be contained and feel better about the emotional health of the women of Glasgow with them focusing their crazy on each other.  Also, they should have lots more sex scenes.

And now it is late and I must sleep ... *sigh*  Why is it not the weekend yet?

Lou seemed a desperate cause at the beginning of the episode and I was sad for Tess, but it looks like she's trying hard to be what she wants to be and Tess helping her has a lot of sweetness potential.

Sadie looked cool when she was 'getting' books, less so once she started 'getting' Frankie & co's stuff. That's why you shouldn't hit on thieves, Frankie.

Frankie is hot and I'm not a big fan of Sam but I'd rather ship Cat with Sam.

I'm definitely on Team Lou now. For most of the episode I was giving her some serious side eye because she seemed like she was just fucking with Tess, but her breakdown scene really gave me some sympathy for her. Now, I'm fully pulling for these two!

That whole scene in the bookstore was really cool and sexy. I actually liked them in the cafe as well. Frankie totally got what was coming to her though. I just feel bad for her friends girlfriend getting her shit stolen because Frankie's a ho.

I'm shipping Cat with Sam until Frankie gets her shit together. When Cat and Frankie are being playful their chemistry is CRAZY, but too much of their interactions are angst-filled right now. Cat/Sam for the present, Cat/Frankie in the end is what I'm hoping for.
