Oh, wow, I sure hope Becky lives?? I think she will, her role gives so much drama and there’s so much left for her to provide? Much more than if she dies, then it’ll be simply a matter of Eric getting the baby, there’s no custody war or mystery to it. Like Luke’s death now brings up the question who did it, what will the next steps be about his story, etc. Becky dying in childbirth brought on by a guy we already know is bad…less drama. I’m not gonna rule it out but it’s not a big fear for me.

2. I….this is where I can never tell, because I always downplay how important f/f stories are to the main plot because that’s just how it is, even here, despite involving two central characters, the Becky/Ginger relationship has hardly made any ripples in the rest of the show, except the divorce. So in that sense, I wouldn’t expect Ginger’s plot in the next ep to revolve around Becky. Buuut, I mean, I didn’t expect even this much so maybe I’m underestimating this show? And in a general sense, I would actually be surprised if everyone’s plot didn’t revolve around Becky a bit, that is a Monreaux next generation heir, so Margaret and Eugene’s grandchild, and most other characters’ nibling (even Ginger’s). Jesus is most of that too but the same guy who took him hurt Becky so again that’s connected. 

3. I think she’ll be pretty sad about Luke since she’s really the only character who knew and liked him and can only openly mourn, but I’m hoping for some scenes where she’s thinking about or even going to meet Becky.

4. Ummm, hmm. That DOES seem like a juicy reveal the show won’t miss so I’m not sure if they’ll do it this ep or next, but I dunno, really, the show’s subverted a bunch of my expectations. I don’t think Eric would be surprised or need an explanation if Ginger goes to see Becky, it’ll probably be expected that most of the family would go at some point. 

A lot of questions, lol, anon, about a show that tbh I’ve mostly been content to watch from and hope for the best when it comes to the f/f. I’m still thinking about Becky’s death, now that you’ve put the thought into my head…and wondering if that unexpected shift from Ginger to be interested in pursuing a relationship is to set up a tragic twist…but let’s freaking hope not! I’d be pretty angry at the show for that.

Using her in what sense? I myself am not ruling Becky out as a potential baddie because of the genre, but in terms of what we’ve seen on screen so far, I haven’t seen anything at all that points to Becky using Ginger. If the twist comes, it’ll very much come out of the blue.

Becky’s story so far has been a pretty classic case of specifically religious gay panic and the back and forth that comes with it. If anything, until yesterday’s ep, it really felt like she was way more into Ginger than vice versa?

The thing is, there’s nothing really to be gained by trying anything with Ginger? Staying married to Evan gave her much more and for all she knew, Ginger wasn’t into any kind of monogamous relationship. But she’s literally just asked for a divorce anyway, and being very hot/cold with Ginger. If that’s a scheme, she’s a true mastermind. Plus, we’ve seen scenes without Ginger, not just the recap mentions but like when she went to Paul in ep 1×06, that wasn’t for Ginger’s benefit. So far she seems pretty sincere to me in everything we’ve seen of her.
