It doesn’t surprise me he can get through pre-med and medical school, it’s more about being a bit unrealistic he decides over the summer he wants pre-med when never considering it before. Typically pre-med is Elena and Tracy… just always knowing you want it. That’s how my childhood friend was. She’s a retinal surgeon. She always knew medicine was her calling. She borrowed my sister’s advanced calculus, biochemistry and inorganic chemistry books when we were only in 9th grade. LOL. She just knew. I even believe Felicity wants medicine but is pushing it away because that’s what her parents want her to do. But we’ll see. LOL.

I am completely shocked Felicity is keeping the truth from Ben about the cheating. It’s so horrible. She’s not stupid, she HAS to know he’s eventually going to find out. The cheating is bad enough… but to literally reunite without telling him the truth is almost worse than the cheating. It’s so disrespectful. I mentioned a case can be made if the cheating happened right before they were done with college and immediately back in California not telling him could work since they wouldn’t be around Noel anymore and Felicity clearly isn’t confused over her feelings. She knows it was a mistake, she doesn’t want Noel romantically, she only wants Ben. But a full year is ahead of them and Ben is going to find out. She needs to tell him. This is so heartbreaking. She’s indirectly making a fool out of Ben now, like the joke’s on Ben, and it is NOT COOL. Tell him, Felicity. You love him. Show it.
Yeah it is very heartbreaking as a fan of his character and of Felicity to see this story play out, but you still know they love each other very much. She is just being very dumb. I always 3B was Ben being an idiot and 4A was her being a moron. 4B is all about fall out and the spirit of love always being more important than any mistakes people make.
