I think it was yesterday but I made a post asking if heated rivalry is only sex and no plot. My main concern there was going to be many very graphic sex scenes but it was like any other show. A lot of the commentors said and no. I just finished watching and I can say that show is actually really good. The actors are really great and the romance progression is phenomenal.
To be honest, I did not care for the scott episode. It was kinda hard to get into because I genuinely did not know who those guys were. Seeing how keeping their relationship a secret was affecting them both was sad and its truly realistic in today’s society.
I did not like how Ilya was treating Shane in the beginning. Shane seemed so shy and nervous about everything and u can tell that it was more than just sex. I felt bad when Ilya would ice him out for no reason. I get why Ilya did it but man it was hard to seee. His girlfriend realizing he was gay is so crazy because I was not expecting her to say that at the dinner table.
My final thoughts is that cottage episode is by far my favorite episode so far. We finally got to see them act more couple like than fuck buddies. Seeing them in that state was just perfect. The way that I knew his parents were going to catch him in the act. There is way too many windows in that house. At least they were chill with it.
