I hope that Celeste can take off the denial glasses soon....

I agree. She'll continue to put her son on a pedestal and refuse to accept what her son really did.

I've seen some other TV shows with an abuse SL and the normal reaction of the abused is to stay/accept. So Celeste's reaction is realistic. They do this because they think they'll never be good enough for anyone. Plus it's a very long and slow process of realization.

Mary Louise reaction is normal. It's similar to Chris Watt's parents reaction to finding out that he killed his wife,and Kids. They didn't believe it neither. If your husband/or brother was accused of doing a crime, and he never been accused of that sort of crime your likely won't accept right away. Especially sense she never had Perry charge with rape. Celeste never reported the beatings. So far there's no charges against Perry for raping any other women. Celeste never went to the police about the beating. Yet , she is told that her only son is dead, and he was a monster? now replace Perry with your husband, or family member? Wouldn't a lot of questions go through your head? Would you accept anything someone say about a person that you knew,and love "After" he's dead and can't defend himself? Do that where Mary Louise is coming from.

I don't like that Mary Louise is trying to take custody of Celeste 's boys, but she's right . Celeste is putting the kids in danger every time she has a black out.

Ooohhh, watch it already, great ep. I like that the show is funnier this season too considering how bleak it was last season with Perry.

**crazy_diamond** · 07-06-2019, 01:59 AM

moments this season

**stlavin95** · 07-06-2019, 03:49 AM

**fly me to the moon** · 07-06-2019, 12:45 PM

Why I feel like this show was moving fast..

Yeah I get that I dated briefly this guy in college and we stayed friends after and then I found out that he was arrested for some horrible things after we lost touch . I also found he recently died in jail, At first I was in denial but then came to accept it
