Logan and Mary Anne’s dinner date is a bit awkward, especially when Richie and Sharon show up. They end up having a double date, which is awkward, especially when Logan doesn’t have enough money to pay. Richard picks up the tab and Logan leaves in a hurry.

While it was not the announcement the girls were hoping for, they join their parents for games as the episode comes to an end.

 

Thoughts:

  • I like how the ‘romance’ was not the wedding we all expected and just Sharon and Richie in a long term relationship.
  • Mary Anne and Logan’s not wanting labels at the end was pretty realistic for eighth graders.
  • I wish they would have shown more with the Galentine party.
  • We got to hear about Ben Brewer!
  • I am confused with Liz’s storyline. Is she pregnant, going through in-vitro or what?
  • Dawn being open to any kind of relationship is exactly how I pictured her being.
  • I feel like this was the weakest one so far, a lot of filler and kind of boring.
