I would suspect that Tim maybe followed her and they had sex...or some make out session ensued. But an actual threesome, I can't see it happening. Sadly.

I know I've mentioned it before but Y Tu Mama Tambien was totally the inspiration for that scene which is two boys having a threesome with an older woman in Mexico. I want to ask Peter Berg or ask someone with the show their interpretation of the scene.

This is definitely a question to add to the Ask Pete list. I'm sure they were all sharing a room and I can't imagine that Tim had sex with her with Jason there. That goes on in college dorms all the time, but because it's Jason and the history, I don't think Tim did it. I don't think they really had a threesome. But perhaps the powers that be added that scene as homage to Y Tu Mama Tambien... which I've never heard of. Did you read that somewhere or did you make that connection?

When the episode first aired countless reviews referenced the Y Tu Mama Tambien scene. Basically it's two teens who go on a roadtrip with an older woman. Both are having sex with her but all three get drunk at an outdoor bar in Mexico and then go and have a threesome. It just very much felt like an homage to it.

Here are some of the reviews that mention it:

Quote:

I was fairly certain Jason's present story arc would end on such a note, and very glad that the ending was not an entirely happy one (Y Tu Mama Tambien was invoked even more blatantly this week than last, with the neat twist of Jason's disability making a menage a trois impossible, regardless of whether or not Lyla would have taken part in one).

It was a terrific episode. I was a little bit uncomfortable with the Y-tu-Mama-Tambien-inspired cantina dance/kiss scene, but for the most part this show continues to prove that pickly topics CAN be dramatic and entertaining when handled correctly.

They packed up to head back to Texas, stopping to have a little Y Tu Mama Tambien moment at a roadside bar along the way. For a second, I thought things were about to get way too racy for a 9 pm network show.

The Mexico trip came to an interesting end. That Street wasn’t going to have the surgery seemed a given, but the final scene in the bar where Lyla was affectionate with Street, then Riggins, in full view of each guy -- and with neither of them seeming that troubled by it -- demonstrated a moral and sexual complexity that I didn’t think the show would be willing to approach. I actually thought, for the 5 seconds before Lyla had a retreat-to-Jesus moment, that a threesome was in the offing, and I wonder where all this is going once they get north of the border next week.

His eyes in this scene just kill me:

That's really clears things up for me. I think you should tweet this info. to the Canadian girls. They were very interested in the threesome. lol

**worthyoflove** · 08-24-2016, 08:55 PM

Tweet them that the scene was an homage to Y Tu Mama Tambien? It would probably blow their mind. I'm not sure they could handle that movie.

Though it does have a very young naked Gael Garcia Bernal (he's one of the "teens").

elherts · 08-24-2016, 09:04 PM

Is it in English? Subtitles?

**worthyoflove** · 08-24-2016, 09:14 PM

Subtitles. I watched it after my hot Spanish TA my freshman year of college told me about it. I did not pull a Julie Taylor with him, FYI.

I was more taken with Diego Luna, myself. I just think he's so hot, and he's the only reason I'll be seeing the new Star Wars.

But Gael is growing on me.

I can't stop staring at those Tim/Lyla gifs. lol

If we learned nothing else from Gossip Girl, the third person always has to be a stranger!

I saw Y Tu Mama Tambien after our last Mexico discussion. Subtitled movies rock!

I've only listened to 2-3 podcasts from the Canadian girls, but I agree, they aren't ready for Y Tu Mama Tambien!

**SouthernSweetieTX** · 08-25-2016, 12:27 AM

OMG! I don't know how we missed being so close to the end of the last thread and then blowing it out of the water. Oops doesn't seem like enough. So not on my game.

**worthyoflove** · 08-25-2016, 08:45 AM

I wasn't paying attention at all either, our bad. I felt like we just started that last thread. Oh well.

I tweeted at the Canadian podcast girls about Y Tu Mama Tambien, they said they're going to check it out.
