LILA and FIVE in THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY: SEASON 3
I'll put this right now and won't speak of it again.
I love Trevino and I think he's gonna do a terrific job directing. I have no doubt.
Maybe we will finally get a well-cut and directed episode because the last few have been a bit iffy when it comes to editing and continuity.
With that said, this episode sounds like a filler.
Especially when episode 8 brought a much-needed urgency to move the story arc on.
Now we have to stop again? Not have answers again?
For the very first time, I'll be watching an episode with the lowest of expectations (if you follow my blog you know how much I always try to stay on the positive side of things).
I know Liz is in a bad shape (by something of her own making, btw) and Max will be, surprisingly(not) on the verge of life and death again, but it kind of sucks this whole "everyone will be there to save the heroin, avengers-assemble kind of way" when the love of one of the main characters life it's LITERALLY IN A HOLE, IN ANOTHER DIMENSION, FOR ALMOST TWO WEEKS NOW.
The same character is human and has a disability.
Which makes you think he needs things to survive down there. At least, this should be the first concern once his boyfriend and friends realized he's been there and missing for days.
Again, it's the urgency that seems that will be totally forgotten in episode 9.
The fact that the whole group will stop everything to save Liz, doesn't make any sense.
At least, that's how it sounded to me.
I hope I'm wrong.
I hope Monday's episode surprises me and makes me bite my tongue, but in my opinion, this episode should have been placed early on and not now, on the second half of a season that's not explaining anything and dragging its story.
This doesn't mean I'm being negative or trying to ruin Trevino's ep.
It's just an honest opinion when it comes to the narrative we are getting so far.
Again, I hope I'm wrong and the ep surprises me.

Why now? Well, duh. Dad disowns us. Grace isn’t Grace. Ben’s.. gone. Now just felt like a good a time as any to find out who I could’ve been if I didn’t grow up in this stupid family.

this season is just disappointment after disappointment after disappointment
Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go.
Hermann Hesse
“i have a problem with letting go of things with clenching my hands like a vice and holding on despite everything it’s why i keep all my memories with me carry them in my phone, on my walls in the little box inside my closet even though it’ll always remain closed i have a hard time letting go of people, of memories that no longer ring true i clutch them like i’d be bereft without them the conversations with people i don’t speak to anymore the photos i want to pull down from my walls the memories i no longer want to recall i never allow myself to mourn i hoard them and keep them close and i just can’t seem to let go.”
— i no longer want to meet new people because i’m afraid one day all they’ll ever be are memories i want to revisit, redo, ones that i want to stay in forever and would forever regret. memories that i would never let go of, but memories, nevertheless | wt.
