I didn't pick up on that, but now that you mention it, I can see it.


I thought it was your typical liberal Hollywood schlock throughout most of the first season, but the last episode really drives it home.

Daddario’s character isn’t that special and her complaints about her husband are superficial (he was justified in his “Karen” moments most of the season.). She got put in her place so many times that you wanted them to stop beating the dead horse by the end.

The college girls were all about screwing over her parents because of colonialism, but when there were consequences to actions they retreated to being rich, entitled, and safe. Sweeney’s character learned her lesson and appreciated what she had, but her friend will always be burdened with ruining someone else’s life due to her “activism.”

I was rolling my eyes a lot of the season but it was an incredibly satisfying finale outside of the untimely death.

They did a good job of having the parents push back on the woke college stupidity during the family meal scenes throughout the first season, usually leaving the kids speechless or with nothing but an eyeroll to respond with.

And then yes, the final episode where the woke college kids saw the consequences of their belief system was very definitive.
