That scene where Val slowly turns Juls around against the counter and they declare their feelings for each other, whew. For the entire show I’d been content to let them/the writers go at their own pace with kisses and affection, but that scene man. It needed a kiss. Like, they needed a kiss anywhere in the finale anyway, but the buildup for one there was ridiculous. Barb and Maca have too much chemistry for their own good.

Agreed with every single darn word you said! I’d also argue the final scene should have had one too, but this scene was just aching for it. At least in the other one you could say they were in public and Lupe’d just arrived. But come on, how could a scene with this not have a kiss??

Their chemistry is just ridiculous.

Even near the end, this part when she needs for Juls to understand so badly and just grabs her face and tells her she wants to do this and then trails off

And in the silence Juls just looks at her beseechingly, silently asking what the “but” is, what could be more than them?

Honestly, just give them a camera and let them improvise their characters, they know them better than anyone else.
