What a clusterfudge!

fembuckI feel like this week the fate's conspired to make me ship things to a ridiculous agree while simultaneously breaking my heart.
Lip Service - 1x05 (clicky clicky)
I'm probably one of the three people on the planet that not only likes Frankie, but actually wants her to end up with Cat down the road, this weeks episode was pretty great for me. I am shipping Cat/Frankie really hardcore right now. They were too adorable with their trip down memory lane at their old school, reminiscing about Frankie looking down Cat's shirt and the two of them carving their initials into the blackboard during detention. Awww.
And although most people will probably question my sanity, I thought it was super romantic that Frankie took the blame for everything with their boss so that Cat could get back into his good graces (even though he's an asshat that doesn't really deserves to have anybody working to get into his good graces). Cat trying to control her smile when Frankie walked back in to grab the bag with the vibrator in it also charmed the pants off of me.
And while I'm on the subject of Frankie, I'll stan a little more by saying that cowgirl!Frankie is one of the hottest things mine eyes have ever seen. Okay, that might now be true, my eyes are open for many hours every day so I've seen a lot of hot things, but cowgirl!Frankie was definitely really, really not. And Ruta Gedmintas is just stunning.
My Cat/Frankie OTP aside, I actually felt really bad for their significant and not so significant others this week. Sadie actually resembled a human being and made me feel really bad for her. Natasha O'Keefe really nailed those scenes with Sadie realizing that she had lost Frankie (or really even worse that she had never had Frankie in the first place to lose). The, "I really liked you" was simple, but poignant.
And Sam *sigh* Poor Sam. Most of the Cat/Sam scenes this episode filled me with such uncomfortableness because I felt really bad for Sam. I know that Cat dropped the "L bomb" (I refuse to use the other phrase) at the end of the episode, but I don't think that she really meant it. I think she wants desperately to mean it, but I don't think she actually feels it. Sam is wonderful for Cat, but for the last few episode Cat has not lit up around her like she does around Frankie. *braces for heartbreak*
OMG TESS! *HUGS HER FOREVER* This episode was really brutal for me because it was brutal for Tess, and I love Tess. During the awkward flirting with The Sexy as Hell neighbor I was like, "maybe things are looking up for Tess", but oh how wrong I was. Seeing her come completely undone this episode broke my heart. The writers honestly better start to turn things around for her next episode, because this week was like watching a puppy get kicked repeatedly (actually, if you throw Sadie and Sam into the mix it was like watching a whole litter of puppies get kicked repeatedly) and I can't take much more of that. Please, give Tess some smoochies with the hot neighbor
(or in my dream world, have Lou show up again - but in a positive context, not just to have one more person shit on Tess).
And because you can't mention Tess without immediately thinking about Ed. *sigh* I knew it was coming, but it was still brutal to watch. Ed is such a decent, funny, nice guy, so it was hard to see him get his heart smashed to pieces. I knew it was going to end that way, but it still hurt to watch it. I hope that he and Tess are able to patch things up, but I anticipate angst between the two of them probably until the end of the season which makes me sad.
Jay is an asshole who I will not waste anymore text on. I hate him more and more every episode. He has got a major case of Dysonitis. Seriously, [Kim Pine]if Jay's life had a face I would punch it[/Kim Pine].
