I never realized until this (third? fourth?) viewing how of a piece these first three episodes are in firmly placing Ryan with the Cohens. It's incredible how fully formed this world and its characters are right out of the gate; surely one of the many reasons that this show so addictive.
Really speaks to how entrenched alcohol is in society. Im not deflecting blame but if she was a gambling addict no way they invite her to a casino, but as an alcohol addict theyre fine inviting her somewhere with free unlimited alcohol? Since they gambled with their money it would actually be a better thing if she was a gambling addict as then at least thered be an end!
Also dropping your 16 year old on the doorstep of strangers and expecting them to take him in? What a piece of work.
Best episode of the show so far!
"i'll unpack later" always gets to me. I'm so happy to be rewatching this show again. I've missed it so much

His mom was right, that was probably the best thing she did for him
