This show is entertaining but the entire premise is ridiculous. The man was kicking the shite out of her on the ground. He attacked all of them. She was defending her friends from possibly getting killed.

No one in their right mind would lie about that scenario. It’s really ridiculous.

This 1000000%. It's my only holdup with the show. The acting is absolutely insane, love the music, and it's shot so well, but the throughline for this whole season is this underlying tension regarding the "incident" that simply never ever would have happened.

Still think it's a great show, but I keep struggling with that part. Quick hitters so far:

-Renata is absolutely winning this season so far IMO. She's incredible in everything. The I'm not gonna not rich line or whatever the phrasing was was GOAT. She's so awful but awesome. And I can't even imagine what I would do if my wife lost all of our money in a flash without my knowledge or awareness. I am trembling just thinking about that.

-Merryl is next level psycho. It's about to get real nasty between her and pretty much everyone. The Merryl / Reese scenes are hysterical.

-Also, (and I googled to make sure she's of age), but yup is all I gotta say about Reese's oldest daughter.

-I hadn't thought of the weird awkward dude that the gal is dating being a pedo, but now yal got me worried. I really don't want that to happen. She's the one I root for most.
