#me: maybe i didn’t actually love the brio sex scene and i’m just being dramatic #also me: writes two long posts about the dynamics of the sex scene and how it’s fucked up but great #me: okay i guess we do like it then 😂 #i’m on a walk now and my newest thought is how #i was so like not into them having sex before they had a conversation about anything #but like they’ve never done that #and rio knows about it all #to an extent #he knows about fitz (don’t tell me he doesn’t) #and he knows about the secret service #it’s all out there #and they’re gonna blow up at some point #cause now they introduced sex into this nightmare and these addicts won’t be able to stop themselves #it’s gonna be great and i’m so excited #they’re finally letting brio really be horrible assholes and i love that for them and me #everyone else wants them all 😍 and i want them being as shitty as possible lol #anyway #if you made it this far congrats #i’m living a good life #also very 🥰 i got asks lol

What do you think would have made a better season 2 finale? ? . I'll start in a perfect world I would have love for Rio to live his best life with Marcus n Rhea and ghost Beth for good and then Beth goes to therapy because sis needs it , but to keep it semi realistic.. I mean if someone has to die it should have been Boomer not sry or maybe we get a similar storyline that we're getting in s4 where Beth tries to turn in Rio but he finds out and they have this big dramatic fight that doesn't end in attempted murder pls!!! Also hot take but in s3 I would have loved if the pregnancy wasn't a lie i would LIVE for the drama. Lastly, It would've been so interesting if the s4 bar scene was actually genuine on Beth's part and she wasn't setting him up. anyways thoughts???

Once again, sorry this took me like a decade to answer! Just been sooo busy lol.

If we’re going to the backend of S2 I didn’t actually hate Beth or dislike the concept of her being with Rio, in fact it was quite the opposite. I found her annoying, but I still had hop for her character and I still really liked the whole Brio dynamic. So if we were keeping everything the same and just changing the last part of 2.13, I would’ve done one of two things, depending on the type of s3 you want. (btw I’m making this shit up on the spot so bear with me lmao)

1. Boomer makes bail, potentially with a condition that he goes ahead with his planned testimony against Rio and now Beth too. Rio has both boomer and Beth kidnapped and taken to a warehouse NOT HIS LOFT, LIKE A DUMBASS, then tells Beth to clean up her mess. They argue etc, but she shoots Boomer and tells Rio they’re done - she handled her shit and wants nothing more to do with him. Angsty s3, pretty similar to what we got. Beth doesn’t leave crime, per se. She starts her cash business, Rio catches wind of it and wiggles his way in, claims he’s entitled to a licensing fee. Cat and mouse game starts again, maybe some hate sex sprinkled in there.

2. Instead of Rio doing the kidnapping, it’s Turner. He snatches both Beth and Rio, tries to force them to kill each other or maybe just Beth to kill Rio, idk. Anyway, he basically talks about how Rio used Beth and vice versa, how Rio made sure to put everything on her, trying to turn them against each other. But it doesn’t work and eventually, Beth shoots Turner - RIP doll face, you’ll be missed! It’s her first roll in the mud and bby is soooo proud of his girl. He obvs cleans it up and then we get some power couple Bonnie and Clyde shit for s3. Oh, a girl can dream 💔💔💔

Re the fake pregnancy - I hated the storyline. Although... I think, in the moment, it was probably the only thing that would’ve saved her. I genuinely think that is the one time where he would’ve been able to kill her because his anger was so fresh. I can’t think of anything else that would’ve actually stopped him from killing her. I don’t know how I feel about a real pregnancy either, especially if it actually resulted in a child between them, because I think Beth has enough kids to dislike 🤣

Potentially if she was pregnant and miscarried in the time he was gone... maybe… It just feels like a copout, honestly. Like it’s a way to temper his rage, to make him soften towards her before she deserves it. 

With the bar conversation, if they would’ve had a confrontation about the shooting, fought it out and moved past it, so that her deal with the Secret Service was a new issue - I wouldn’t have hated it. It’s the fact that she’s setting him up on top of having a hitman and on top of already having tried to kill him. It’s the way these things are just piling up and going unaddressed. So the dynamic no longer has that compelling push and pull, it’s just push push push. But if we’re going with the current storyline, everything else is still in play, nothing has been dealt with; I would’ve liked for that to be a turning point. For that to have been a really genuine, raw, honest, moment. Something that we haven’t seen from her before. No ulterior motive. 

And yes, they need to fight. It should’ve already happened, which is really frustrating for me. At this point I’m ready for Mick to lock them in a room like, “you guys can fight, fuck, or kill each other, I don’t care anymore. I’m done with your bullshit”🤣🤣🤣
