When you can never see things outside yourself, you can't be a good friend period.
And when you're too proud to admit your wrongs too.
I feel like she lacks empathy.
@@lifewithshawnda I totally agree with that ❤
etrenise, you're 100% correct. I had to re-learn this.
I can see Andrew’s patience running thin...
Molly acts spoiled an entitled even with him. He's a good man and everything she said she wanted but she's still sabotaging it with her unwillingness to change.
Life Coach Shawn Exactly! You said it perfectly in the recap as well.
I knew that "talk" was coming when Nathan and Issa walked in. I was kind of mad when that happened because it seems like Andrew is ready to tell her about herself and I am so waiting for that moment. Andrew is laid back which is why it seems like he's trying to hint to Molly without just saying it, but at the same time, I think he understands that when you have good family or friends or a partner, you don't just let them walk away because of some silly disagreement that could probably be worked out with a simple talk and some time, you work it out. Molly hasn't reached that level of maturity or awareness yet. She knows Issa is a good friend, but she honestly thinks the friendship is one-sided, where Issa needs her, but Molly doesn't really need Issa. Like, how she's downplaying how much she misses Issa, and maybe she really doesn't because she has her man, so Issa can be damned right now, but you can tell Issa really misses Molly and it's so heartbreaking to watch.
Yeah he not gonna stat w her for too much longer if she doesn’t change.
She (Molly) is about to lose Andrew if she does not make attempts to get on with his brother. He is low key weighing up her attitude with Issa as an insight into her character. Not wife material.
Molly is definitely showing Andrew that she is difficult and unforgiving.
If he doesn't want a lifetime of that he needs to get out while he can. Going to therapy is one thing applying the tools learned in therapy is another.
that was written all over his face when he was like just "meet her halfway" she's driving him right out the door
I wish they woulda had molly go thru therapy before the relationship with Andrew. I keep seeing people say they are good together. I dont see it. I see him constantly blowing up and him always talking her down. He is gonna be drained.
@@Les_lee Molly was going through therapy in previous seasons to get over her childhood friend she was seeing. He was in an open marriage and she just couldn't help seeing him. She started to go to therapy again once her & Andrew started getting serious and also to help remedy the past about her dad's infidelity to her mom. She needs to work through it more with her therapist.
Life Coach Shawn So true!
I noticed a few more things after reflecting on this episode that I felt was really telling. One was with the takeout that Molly decided on without including Andrew. He looked very bothered that she decided to get Chinese when they agreed on Indian food, a complete disregard for his feelings and selfish on Molly's part. Another thing is with the "playful" banter and joking with Issa. You gotta watch out for people who like to make jokes at your expense. Molly enjoys laughing at Issa's short comings with the old raggedy apartment she used to have. I had a friend that would do that to me around other people to boost her self esteem. It may seem minor but it's very telling to me about the friendship.
Wow! I too noticed that that drinking game was all about Issa being down on her luck. It’s almost as if that’s all Molly will ever see in Issa.
@@phillylady Yup! I know from first hand experience. My ex bestfriend would do that to me more so as a way of embarrassing me but in a slick way. So if you ever wanted to bring up the situation later it will be brushed off like "Girl! I was just joking". It was always done when I'm around a new group of people and they are starting to like me, laugh at my jokes or a guy was feeling me. It's very telling about Molly's self esteem.
EbonySings4u I noticed that with the food as well. A complete disregard for his feelings, wants, and needs. Would it kill you to order something else from the menu other than the dish that disappointed last time or run it by him that you all should get something else entirely instead? I would’ve been mad 😡 And I had a family member like that as well, at first it bothered me (her making sly comments or back-handed compliments) but then I tried to give her a taste of her own medicine, and soon after I just cut her off entirely. I don’t have the energy for miserable people
I really feel like Andrew is going to break up with her and that's when she will realize its her and not everyone else.
My ex is a lot like Molly, which is why I think I have a strong bias against her this season, lol; she makes me think of being back in that place where I was constantly feeling dismissed and torn down. With someone who just does stuff without consulting you (Like Molly did with Andrew), who makes fun of you and whatever situations you are in, who expects you to forgive and forget when they do something, even if it's something extremely bad, but if you do something, no matter how small, they want a parade and apology before they will "give in". Like, I know how low my spirit and self esteem was after dealing with someone like that and I just feel bad for Issa because it hurts to walk away from someone you love when they just... aren't good for you and don't seem to care about you as much as you do them. They are just too draining. Unless something big happens in the last episode or next season, I see Molly and Andrew breaking up for sure.
Molly also changed the takeout to Chinese when her and Andrew agreed on Indian without consulting with him first. Another example of how it’s always about her and what she wants.
She's so used to being in control that she doesn't even realize when she's being controlling. People around Molly like Issa and Andrew usually let it slide just to keep the peace but that gets old.
Yep!!! I definitely caught that!
I peeped
Yep she gonna get canceled mark my words
@@lifewithshawnda I'm Issa and Andrew🥺👉🏽👈🏽
A person who can’t forgive someone they call sister is problematic.
That’s how it is nowadays. That’s why I hate having friendships when you don’t know the person’s heart... especially when you try your best after screwing up
Molly came into that diner prepared to give nothing until Issa gave her the apology she thought she deserved, period. That's why she didn't bring it up. While I feel like Issa should have said something since she called first, I totally understand feeling someone out to see how receptive they were, and if I felt what Molly was giving off, I may not have brought it up either.
Issa was heartbroken at the end, you could see it all over her face. What Molly said really hurt her, and I don't really understand what else Molly expected her to say. Did she want Issa to beg?
I think for Molly "we need to talk" is code for "you need to apologize". When Issa was asking about work, the vacation pics and her nephew she could have said, "girl, I didn't come all this way to talk about that what's going on with us?".
That’s exactly what I said. She shouldn’t have to beg someone to be her friend.
Life Coach Shawn that’s very true. Molly feels like she is owed an apology. But at the end it seemed like she didn’t want to talk at all because she basically told her that she didn’t wanna be friends anymore.
Well stated!
Yes, Molly wanted her to beg. She expects everyone to chase her and give their all meanwhile she puts minimal effort into all her relationships. She's really a selfish brat at this point
The old me was Molly. I’m disappointed in myself that I was that way. I’m better now.
And that ladies and gentlemen is growth. At least you can be honest with yourself and admit where you went wrong. We're still waiting for Molly to get there.
I felt this comment ! I’ve grown so much and it’s such a free feeling !
Cheers to the growth!!
Me too! Although I am still working on it. I didn’t realize how much perfectionism plays into her impossibly high standards and inability to forgive. It is a defense mechanism, but I am not exactly sure why that is the case for Molly.
Good for you sis!
Molly is so arrogant that she thinks she can do no wrong. As a result whenever she is wrong that’s the end of the relationship. She can never apologize because she believes there is no need too.
I think that Molly is going to wind up alone and that’s when she’ll get it. The season finale is going to end with her losing Andrew and not having Issa to fall back on.
Then she’ll realize who she really is
Yeah friendless lol.
Knowing her, she’ll fall back on her colleague in Chicago that she friend zoned
Molly is an example of how money doesn’t buy happiness. She has all the credentials, high paying job, fancy car, dolla dolla bills, but is still miserable 🥴. She needs some time to herself + therapy everyday fo sho! Hoping her & Andrew separate until she gets herself together. She’s a Debby Downer, killing the vibe everywhere she goes 🙃
I agree ☝️! I have been there and done this. Things are getting better now, being Debby downer is horrible and is mentally exhausting .
When I tell you I was watching like “I cannot WAIT to hear Coach Shawns take on this” lol. Last night’s episode was so good! Kerry Washington’s did that!
Yea I love to see the credits. It's always a great surprise.
You're so sweet Mica! Thank you.
I saw a live chat with Issa and Yvonne about how Kerry Washington pushed TF out of them to get the reactions that they got this episode. I think she did a great job because Issa's heart broke in that last scene. It was good actor and director connection.
Omg, same! I was like, "does she upload Sunday night or Monday mornings" ?? Lol
Thank you for the verse sis.
It’s clear: Issa loves Molly. Molly doesn’t love Issa.
They simply don’t see life, relationships, boundaries and grace vs grudges the same way at all.
Issa messes up but she freely admits her flaws and takes others feedback about being a user into account in shaping her behaviors. Issa also understands that others mess up too, but she’s willing to forgive, willing to give grace and the benefit of the doubt. Her boundaries may be too loose sometimes which Molly interprets as “messy”. Issa was deeply hurt by Molly’s tantrum at the block party but after taking some time she reached out to Molly; because she MISSED HER FRIEND. Relationship is important to Issa. I think quality time is Issa’s love language. It doesn’t matter to her that that Molly was wrong. Issa just needs for them to be in relationship to make things right. THAT’S love.
In contrast, Molly can only see things from her perspective, and is stubborn and defensive whenever anyone tries to tell her that she may not considering all the angles and is being self-righteous; she holds onto grudges and refuses to let things go because she expects others to atone before she will accept them back into her life. Her boundaries are too rigid which Issa interprets as Molly “not wanting to be happy”. Molly was deeply hurt by Issa asking Andrew for help via Nathan but instead of taking time to gain perspective she’s been getting increasingly bitter WAITING FOR AN APOLOGY. Being right is most important to Molly. I think words of affirmation are Molly’s love language. Molly just needs Issa to apologize and admit she was wrong. Unless Molly is proven right there can be no relationship. That’s NOT love.
Issa told her if the relationship with Andrew doesn't work out - it's not b/c of Issa. Sometimes a person has to hit rock bottom for others to learn.
My Mom always told me God always sends warning signs. Things don't just suddenly fall apart. Molly has gotten so many signs and warnings that she's ignored.
Andrew really is trying to get Molly to mend fences! She is gonna lose him! Totally agree with you that you cannot be friends with someone who has expressed feelings for you!!! Issa CANNOTbe friendswith Nathan! That is just the right amount of ammunition for Lawrence to move to San Francisco forever without Isaa !
Agreed! Issa may have felt obligated to honor her commitment to helping Nathan move in, but with it not being a group function... Questionable move.
Looks like we have some conflict in the Issa-Lawrence reunion in the season finale. Hard to think the issue doesn't revolve around the relationship to/with Nathan. Frisco is a close No. 2!
Am I the only person that notices Andrew stops speaking Chinese every time Molly walks in
Yeah like who is he talking to and why does he stop talking around her if he knows she doesn't even understand Chinese? 🤔
That's normal if you date/are friends with someone who is bilingual. It's disrespectful if they keep talking in another language when an English speaker enters the conversation/space. He seemed like he was getting off the phone, anyway, so I wouldn't read into that too much. It was also probably just his brother inviting them to the game or making sure they were still coming.
@@Babygirl2986 his brother? Lol
Korean
I noticed that too. It made me look at Molly side ways because Andrew doesn't seem like a guy who lacks confidence in himself, so for me I have to assume it's her. Especially after not apologizing for what she said in the pool to him and not really correcting her family when they were being casually anti-Asian
The sad true about Molly is that there is a lot of Mollys out there in the real world. People who are ready to cut people off out of life for a disagreement, never in the wrong and expecting for people to mind read. What an amazing episode!
This is the best insecure recap on CZcams! Keep it up girl!!!
Thank you so much!!
Agreed!
DEFINITELY!!! I loveee this! Life coach Shawn is amazing!
People that are overly understanding and empathetic like Andrew.....once they let you have it they let you HAVE it and I don't think Molly will be able to take it.
I cannot wait for Andrew to explode on Molly. He about to tear her apart 😭😭
Speak the truth and shame the devil. I can relate to Andrew because I am the same exact way. It's curtains for their relationship. She needs to self reflect and work through all the muck she's harboring. Work through your pain in order to gain. Self sabotage is not where it's at.
@@irene6109 Yes and she better learn something.
Especially about his brother
Exactly!
I just hope Andrew is taking notes on how Molly moves and he sees she is Sooo sensitive and immediately offended by EVERYTHIIIIING! She was offended he told her her gumbo was too salty, offended he wouldn't talk about his sis, offended he helped Issa, offended he made plans with his friends (after she had previously cancelled on him..), etc..... RUN Andrew 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
Exactly! Molly rather suffer through salty gumbo then admit she's wrong. The Bible says, "pride cometh before a fall". She's gonna hit the ground hard. I hoped she would have been able to fix things with Andrew but it doesn't good.
Good point- Andrew is taking note on everything Molly does and says. I really hope Molly figures this out and soon. Molly has a good friendship in Issa and a love relationship with Andrew. 🤞🏾
She just put a nail in her coffin when it comes to her relationship with Andrew
Molly is jealous of Issa in a way. Molly has too much pride to apologize.
Run like Usain Bolt
It was sad to see Issa ready to forgive Molly so easily! She was HYPE! Lmao. But I feel she didn’t dissect the full disrespect that molly gave at the block party. She also let Nathan back in super quick without that conversation first and doing the same with Lawrence now. Luckily Nathan revealed more about his mental illness so we understand but sis is almost too forgiving to her own fault at times.
She did have "the conversation" with Lawrence, though.
Idk Lawrence and her really dissected it properly. But they really fell into this quickly, I’m scared but I guess intimacy like that would worry me especially after hurting each other
I'd forgive Nathan; he had some issues and he makes it clear he wants Issa in his life, whether as a relationship or a friend (I'd keep it at friends at least until he can prove himself capable and Issa decides what is going on with Lawrence). Molly on the other hand, acts as if she doesn't even need or want to be around Issa. There are times you should be forgiving because the other person seems to be truly trying, but then there are times you leave it for a while, or forever, because the other person isn't trying.
MJ Yes! I misspoke. I forgot they did have that conversation. 🙏🏾
I don’t know if she “deserves” Andrew but she’s emotionally definitely not ready for a relationship with him
Molly is very emotionally immature. Most likely because of things she hasn't dealt with, but it makes it really difficult to be friends/date someone who hasn't grown emotionally.
She’s not ready for a relationship with HERSELF
This episode has shown me how much Issa has grown and her relationships are improving while Molly is stuck. The Issa-Nathan, Issa-Lawrence shows how she has grown emotionally while Molly is still entitled.
I feel sorry for Molly having lived life long enough that no one has called you out on your ish, and feeling entitled that everyone should address her need.... Andrew-Molly breaking up next week or early next season. I'm glad the therapist called her out.
Molly will have to ultimately lose everyone in her life for her to truly "see" her flaws. The fact that she hasn't even forgiven her father for something that he did decades ago that doesn't even involve her shows she is just a difficult person.
Molly is the updated Toni Childs (Girlfriends) thier characters are some what similar
Kay You She never said they were the SAME. I would also cast Molly as Miranda from Sex in the City. I think the connections are fair even if they don’t align perfectly and why would they if they’re different shows
I agree, when things got good for Joan, Toni was irked and couldn't accept it, very similar to how Molly is treating Issa but I think Toni was worse, Molly wouldnt try to sleep with Issas sex addict boyfriend!
They kinda look alike
You saw the situation with the food, she couldn’t even give the man the food he wanted. It’s small but I knew from there how that scene was going to be. As for Molly on if she deserves a man like Andrew, until she does the work on herself, she doesn’t. Everyone deserves good love but you have to be able to do the work and she’s unwilling to
Great review as usual.
I’m not sure how long Molly has been in therapy, but if her therapist is giving her tools to handle situations better she needs to start using them. She is unbelievably selfish and self-centered. I wonder if we’ll have a Toni Childs & Joan Clayton friendship breakup where they spend some time apart, grow, & then reconnect later.
My prediction for the finale is that Molly & Andrew break up. It looks like Nathan will be confessing his feelings for Issa, so Issa will have to choose between Nathan & Lawrence & that will be our cliff hanger. Maybe next season they’ll explore Lawrence & Issa being in a LDR dealing with the Covid19 shutdown lol.
I agree I think Nathan will formally announce his feelings but I think they're already clear. Especially after how he reacted to the news about Issa and Lawrence reconciling. He sounded very jealous. I knew the Issa and Lawrence's reunion was happening too fast to be long lasting. I think they're letting us see that they did give it a try that way when they break up for good there's no doubt about whether or not Lawrence was a better fit for Issa. Nathan and Issa inspire each other. I like that.
Life Coach Shawn Yeah that’s true it’s obvious Nathan likes Issa. I think it’s great they inspire each other. I still kind of want to see how a reconciled relationship with Lawrence & Issa would play out now they’re in better places professionally & mentally. Whoever Issa chooses I hope it’s a good one & she gets her fairytale ending lol.
Great review! I agree with Nathan. Lawrence is sometime-y. If he truly wants something again with Issa, why is he still pursuing a job in San Francisco when Issa’s career is just kicking off in LA. Also, when he finally came clean about Condola, it was very vague🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Lawrence is happiest and at his best when he is professionally fulfilled and if he sacrifices that to be with Issa, they’ll likely end up right back where they were before. Plus he told Issa his plans from jump so they both are either being reckless in continuing or through their growing maturity will figure out what the next steps are.
Yes. Lawrence refused to DTR (define the relationship) when Issa asked. I like them together but that's a red flag coupled with his 2nd interview in San Fran. Issa is supposed to cut Nathan out as a friend for a man who can't say "you'er my girlfriend/woman/whatever?" Oh i don't think so. To be blunt- You don't get exclusive rights to something u aint purchased. How many times have women given a man boyfriend or husband privileges without him actual being in a committed relationship?
Nathan is still in play precisely because Lawrence is sometimy. He's trying to start "something" with Issa while knowing his job futures are in major flux....and knowing Issa is hitting her stride right where she is. Nah Nathan can stay right where he is cause his time is coming. And yes...Lawrence's explanation about Condolences is missing something...
embrya26 I definitely agree. But Issa is growing with honesty & transparency. She asked Lawrence about Condola, the status of the job, & their status as a couple. She’s making the initiative to being more honest & Lawrence is giving me “sometime-y” vibes. Especially when he answers her questions with a question, “What do you want this to be?” Just he honest Lawrence! My mom always said when someone answers your question with a question, it’s a long no! (Example: You want to come with me to this part? Answer: Whose going to be there? How much is it? What time does it start? 🤣🤣)
Lunar Dawn Exactly! She’s running around telling everyone they are back together and he is going to second interviews. I just keep thinking about when she told the brother “Lawrence & I are back together” and his response was “Does he know that??”
You're right. Lawrence has yet to give Issa straight answer. When Issa said last week, "you make me happy" Lawrence said, "me too". And you're right about the "what do you want it to be" convo too. He's not be the initiator. He's just following Issa's lead. This is their last shot. It either works now or it never will.
I feel sad for Molly, because I think she's unforgiving out of fear. I think when she closes herself off from people, it's because she felt triggered and something hit her in a tender spot. I think she wants to avoid anything that doesn't feel good, which is immature and unrealistic. Getting hurt in relationships is inevitable.
She's also paranoid about being disrespected or taken advantage of.
Oooo definitely been like this. I think molly should forgive people so she has peace for herself. It’s definitely immature and unrealistic to think people are not going to argue and say bad things. We all have to learn.
you have the BEST commentary of this show ! like wow
Thank you so much. I appreciate you for watching.
I agree!! Subscribe!!!!
I just rewatched this episode and noticed with Molly that she always needs to win. When she is at brunch, she sits there looking at the menu waiting on Issa to speak first and apologize so she can win the fight. Talking with Andrew about getting together with his brother, she refuses to listen to what he's saying so she can win that discussion. When she tells Issa they've grown apart, she's completely thrown by Issa's "okay" response because she was expecting Issa to beg and grovel to save the friendship, again so Molly would win. Even during the session with her therapist, the doctor touches on the fact that in Molly's life, everyone else is in the wrong (Issa, Andrew, Coworkers, her father) . Life is one big competition to Molly where she has to be the winner, but sacrifices actual meaningful relationships in pursuit of that.
This season has been one for the books. Hard to watch but good af!!! Everyone on this show has done an exceptional job. So glad they brought Lawrence back!! Might be their best season.
Season two was the best but this is running close
I agree that this season has had the most heft.
Most viewers are either headed towards these types of changes (don't have to be exactly along the same lines) in some of their most important relationships, or they've gone through them. So, the storyline has been very relatable.
Molly and Andrews relationship is a wrap! He is seeing her for who she is and she is always in denial about her part in anything.
"If she wants to curate a relationship with Lawrence she'll need to cut Nathan loose." - BRAVA! Way too often people want to have their cake and eat it too, damn the consequences. Issa should certainly know better by now.
Nathan would just be her "back burner buddy" and that's not fair to him.
I also though that
Yep very true. I also think its hard for her to do that because i mean why did she have to seek for advice first it should be easy and why was it so awkward for her. Sis still got feelings for him
Issa needing her best friend to talk was real..... I have those exact feeling for my best friend. I felt that sucker punch when I read Molly's text! She be "trying"?! I was mad. Issa did the right thing in leaving. Then Miss. Molly had the nerve to nerve to make some shitty remark and expect Issa to have something to say?! Wtf ! In Jamaica there is a saying "we nuh beg friend" and that's exactly what Issa should do....Don't Beg Miss. Molly for her friendship!
Loving this new honest and open relationship with Lawrence 👏🏿.
Once you tell someone you two don't really fit anymore what are they supposed to say, "yes we do". Nope. Molly was trying to get an apology out of Issa and Issa called her bluff and said "ok". Why look shocked if you meant what you said? Her attempt to manipulate Issa didn't work.
@@lifewithshawnda exactly!!! What else is there to say after that remark?!
@@lifewithshawnda It's sad that Molly only seems to reflect on Issa's downfalls and re-projects how she's messy and using people. Now that Issa is doing successful things for herself and the community, all Molly can do is say "the new you doesn't fit anymore." In the diner, Issa even praised Molly's pictures and how good she looked. The last episode is going to be a cliffhanger. As much as I'm looking forward to it, I also don't want it to end just yet! Lol it's my support through quarantine.
Molly doesn’t even acknowledge how she hurt Issa. Like we’ve said she doesn’t acknowledge her part in these situations. It was embarrassing & hurtful to Issa that she would blow up & ruin a night that Issa put together & worked so hard on. Her lack of support is hurtful... Her saying “maybe who you are now doesn’t align with who I am” GIRL you don’t even know her anymore b/c you’ve been so busy hoping she can read your mind and being mad that she didn’t. Y’all pushing Each other away ina sense... y’all don’t know Each other anymore. I feel like Molly needs to hit the rock bottom and be broken down & humble herself just as much as the next person. That doesn’t discrete her success or anything that will help her see people for who they really are and not what she makes them out to be. This is supposed Loy your Bestfriend... and you treat her like this...? It’s not right to me. Maybe Issa can go to a session with Molly it seems they need coy swing before they decide if they want a divorce 😭
I love your commentary on Insecure and look forward to it. I don’t understand what Molly expected Issa to say besides “okay”when she said, “Where I am now and where you are now doesn’t fit anymore.” That was soo hurtful combined with “See I’m trying with her.” Which was was more for “show” for Andrew and less for salvaging their friendship. Andrew is soo going to dump her and we’re going to see a totally unglued Molly that’s going to be begging for the friendship with Issa that she is so casually throwing away..
If Molly makes it to the next season she will be completely broken. She'll need Issa to help put her back together again. I hate to think their best memories are behind them but people change.
And how horrible for Molly would it be if by that time, Issa has moved on and doesn't want to be friends with Molly anymore. But that's a risk Molly is taking by not showing Issa that she cares or wants her in her life.
I mean. Listening to your voice is so pleasant. Your reviews are sooo everything. You’re calm, soothing. You enlighten us on things we might have not picked up on or just your knowledge and insight. You efficiently move through the episode and your explanations effortlessly without being unnecessarily repetitive. I honestly haven’t seen the last two episode but your thorough reviews makes me feel like I have.
This means a lot to me because reviews aren't typically my genre. I love the show and wanted to add something to the review community that still felt like me and the work I do as a life coach. This has been so fun for me and I'm glad you enjoy my different take.
Life Coach Shawn “reviews aren’t typically my genre” 😩. I wouldn’t have known. You’re so good. And I am a details matter kinda person. So I pick up on all the extras. I mean. It’s a review (I’ve seen many) but everything you add to yours including the image shots from the show that fit so perfectly with what you’re explaining at the moment. I can tell you put work into these and I’m here to tell you YOU’RE DOING GREAT.🙂take care.
I think it is good that Nathan is in the mix because it will give Lawrence the opportunity to prove that he does trust Issa and that he is not afraid of competition. Issa already proved this with Condola. She could have backed off let her feelings go but she fell back a little and bided her time. Just because Issa cheated doesn't mean that no one else will want her so Lawrence needs to be able realize that. That's old s** now. Deal with the new.
Lawrence met TSA bae last week and heard about Nathan this week. He knows Issa is a hot commodity in these streets. Lol This is a hard position for Issa. She and Lawerence haven't defined their relationship so technically she doesn't owe him anything. But on the other hand because of their past trust issues Issa having a male friend (that she used to date no less) complicates things.
Honestly Lawrence needs to go. Nathan was right when he said Lawrence was sometimey. During that "dtr" conversation he should've been more upfront about what it is he wants instead of leaving it up to Issa. This is just showing me that Lawrence really doesn't know what he wants and Issa doesnt need someone who's straddling the fence.She don't need Nathan either the
both of them can go.
So you think it is cute that cheated on you in your darkest time? Lol smh
Issa got more Bodies than Ted Bundy.. only on a television show does that type of woman gets any respect. In real life ladies its unattractive and brings your mate down to Captain save a ho. She got all these bodies but basically lonely . Lawerence a simp should kept his other chick .. instead he wifing up a bopper ..shrugs ... I know she's the main character so fans will justify, but trust me ladies it does not.. show me a woman like this and Ill show you a lonely woman.. A women with a ton of bodies is the equivalent to a man with a small package for women. Best way I can describe it ladies. Its like you Claiming a man thats Known around the town to hv a small package Lol.. This is what I tell young ladies protect your body its your stock value
@@KerkinWayno No. Just no. What you said needed to be kept all the way to yourself.
“ You shouldn’t have to hit rock bottom to change “ wowwwww Periodtttttttt
Been waiting on this!!!
Me as well checking the channel every hour since I woke up.
Issa and Andrew are in the same situation with Molly, she takes and takes from the relationship but doesn't give anything to it. She uses Issa as something to compare herself to, she needs Issa to be a trainwreck so he can look better in comparison, as soon as Issa started putting things together in her life, the issues with Molly began. With Andrew she is taking his compassion to make her happy and expects him to be happy just by being with her. Almost that both Issa and Andrew should be soley grateful for Molly being in their lives. Shes a textbook narcissist and the only way she will change is if the world around her crumbles. When she loses Andrew and loses Issa and realizes she is utterly alone, only then will a glimmer of change for her come.
GREAT REVIEW!.. Molly is self centered & self serving. Even something as simple as the food she brought home, she decided last minute that she wasn't going to get that, even though they agreed to something else. She doesn't think Issa is a good fit for her now, because Issa is growing. It does not fit the 'she's beneath me' narrative that Molly thrives on so much. Molly is not kind. Everything she does comes with a scorecard and an attachment. I was upset when Issa reached out, but this is what she needed to completely move on from this so-called friendship.
Listen to how happy she was talking about Issa's stinky old apartment. Issa is not that person anymore and she shouldn't have to be. True friends want the best for you. Molly hasn't offered to help Issa yet. Issa doesn't need Molly's help like that anymore (she pays for her own brunches now) so I think it makes Molly think she doesn't need her at all.
Molly has turned into a frenemy. It would be different if they were high school rivals and Issa was aware and could "fight back" but she's doing things she'd do for a friend and Molly is acting like this is her competitor. I was rooting for molly even though I despise her behavior. I've experienced Mollys in my life and I still wanted her to learn something and turn it around. molly is trash, but Yvonne orji is a treasure! Lol i haven't despised an on screen character this much is a very long time.
Let’s see how quick Molly will need Issa’s friendship when
Andrew gets sick of her.
I feel like Issa and Lawrence should just move on. Honestly I like them together but the second time around and the way they got back together was all rushed. Issa gave up the goods too quick... Sometimes it’s the flesh that leads us in the wrong direction. They should have DATED ... again first... see if they liked the new improved Issa and Lawrence. See if they can trust each other ... get the people they dated out the way... really out the way... then see if you can give it a second shot. Just my opinion.🤷🏾♀️
Same. I thought the last scene from last week signalled that Issa finally got closure and was ready to move on so i was disappointed to see them together again this episode especially with Issa asking him what they are and him answering that it is what she wants it to be. If he wanted to claim her, he would have!
Agreed, they should have taken their time.
Agreed! I hope this isn’t a setup for the ‘end’ 😢😢😢
Exactly. Starting over should be what it means...starting over. They def should’ve dated for a certain amount of time before getting physical. Also, issa laying all of that out on the table after their night out was a no no. She still didn’t know if Lawrence was coming back out of ego or heart. Granted she was the one that cheated so she really should’ve been on guard bc men don’t forgive like women and in the special case that they do, the relationship is never the same as far as trust goes, which is why men are usually completely done when the woman cheats.
@charstar Cain yes I agree I think Lawrence is going to change his mine with Issa.They need to go there own way. and embrace the new. Issa should embrace Nathan more and her project. I would love to see that. And Lawrence embrace his new opportunity with moving and starting a new life
Love your Insecure reviews.
My predictions for the season finale is Molly and Andrew will breakup. Andrew is too good for Molly. He adds value to her but she doesn’t add value to him. I think Issa and Lawrence situationship will get rocky because of Nathan’s feelings for Issa. I honestly would love for Issa and Nathan to be together. They push each other to be better.
I think that in Season finale, that Andrew and Molly are going to break up because Andrew was very displeased when she didn't attend the Clippers game. I also thinks that Lawrence and Issa will not last either. Your commentary is the ONLY commentary that I listen to Coach Shawn!!! Please keep up the amazing work.
You are so sweet to say that. Thank you so much girl.
Yeah, I kind of think Lawrence is just wasting time with Issa until he moves. Like, if he wants what they have to last, you need to be having a talk about what's going to happen when you move to San Fran. It's a slight red flag that that's being avoided.
Lawrence should run as far as he can from ISSA. He should have let her walk right out that door. These last episode make you feel like it was Lawrence the one who was cheating. Condola was better for him
Pride is a love killer.
Yes it is.
Molly may have to lose Andrew and have nowhere to turn before she sees her own trifling ways. I think Andrew will be forgiving but it won't be right off. Issa will probably have to be the bigger person yet again and forgive Molly but I am not sure if this more confident version of Issa will do that right off. Issa knows her value more now than she ever has so Molly will have to make some consessions before Issa will relent. This is going to be test for Molly. Wow. What a show!
Andrew is going to leave Molly and she will have no choice but to reach out to the friend she traded in because she has a man now.
Andrew knows he is one moment away from being in issa's place, begging for for forgiveness and getting cold shoulder from molly, he needs to leave molly
Molly and Andrew are going to break up and Mollynis going to run to Issa or blame her for the break up
Issa already told her that "if you and Andrew break up it won't be because of me girl". Losing Andrew will make her swallow her pride and come crawling back to Issa. She's always thought Issa needed her but she'll learn that she needs Issa too.
LOL, Molly got nobody to blame but herself....
@@lifewithshawnda you're right..she does think that Issa needs her. That why she was so surprised when Issa didnt press the issue after Molly ended the friendship
I hope that after Molly Nd Drewski breaks up, she goes to Issa n Issa is like "im good luv, enjoy" ✌🏽😂
Molly is Toni Childs 2.0 smh Andrew is getting tired of her and I’m sensing he’ll break up with her on the finale and she deserves it. Her therapist was right - anyone who she feels wronged her she cuts them off and makes no effort to reconnect. SHE should have been the first to extend the olive branch not Issa because SHE ruined Issas event. And instead of being grateful that Issa reached out first she just pretended to be cool to Issas face while dogging her behind her back?! Molly can kick rocks! I’m rooting for Issa and Lawrence because of the growth they have shown but I feel like the finale is going to mess me up lol great review as always :)
Even though Victor was wrong to antagonize Molly he was extending an Olive branch and Molly should have tried. Not for Victor's sake but for Andrew's.
Life Coach Shawn exactly. Molly doesn’t want an olive branch... she wants everyone who’s wronged her to bring her the whole damn tree and that’s not how relationships work. After you accidentally text your best friend that “see. I’m trying with her” and then tell you guys aren’t compatible anymore what was she expecting Issa to say?! Molly is a mess.
Molly doesn't want olive branches, she wants apologies.
I completely agree with the Toni Childs reference!
Molly is going to end up alone. She has this sense of entitlement now that she finally has a man. But, she has lost Issa. And, she is going to lose Andrew. She is going to start Season 5 all alone.
She has entitlement because she gave so much of herself to Issa. Issa didn’t give much to her, this bad when someone is giver and other person is a taker.
Molly will make it to next season,not Lawrence. Once Andrew breaks up with her she will finally get a wake up call.
She's gonna be devastated but Andrew gave her every chance in the world to grow and change but Molly hasn't learned anything. As great as Molly is on paper all he's seen her do is create issues where there are none, fight and bad mouth her best friend and get into an argument with his brother after barely knowing him. That's a lot.
Hopefully 🤓
That part
I hate that Molly is serving that "I have the man now and my life is set" thing. It's hard to watch. Molly is going to be broken after this breakup. The sad part is she won't see it coming.
Molly is headed down a very lonely path. If she keeps pushing one day she’ll wake up and realize there’s no one left to push. Living life counting the strikes people make against you means your relationships will mostly consist of them making it up to you. And no one likes being in debt for too long. Especially since Molly can’t see how she plays a role in the turmoil a lot of her relationships experience. Issa is on a path of growth and I hope Molly doesn’t go with her.
Whew , this episode was a lot.
As a noncombative person myself, I understand her struggle talking with Molly. She can be very explosive and her tongue is vicious! However, she still reached out and that took courage because Molly was too proud to ever show herself ( that's why she acted like she didn't see Issa at the restaurant.) She did want to talk to Molly about her man issues, friends confide in each other but Issa took a different approach when they were in person to see about Molly first. Molly went in with her war face on. She was ready to talk but not ready to work. She probably already had her response and closing statement before Issa even spoke she just didn't get to use it. The conversation was so tense I wouldn't have said anything either...talk about getting blood from a turnip. They are both at fault but when you DESIRE to reconcile you have to show a level of grace and attempt to see their side. If she doesn't want to be Issa's friend, that's okay. However , that mistake text hurt me . You talk about being superficial, avoiding conversations and real issues. Yet you're smiling with me and telling me you love me blah blah....You could have told me at the diner you didn't want to be my friend. She has Andrew and that has given her a safety net to not need Issa for emotional support. Make sure you take that stick out of your eye and see the amazing person Andrew is and is trying to help you become. Old habits die hard and the pride comes before the fall.
Molly doesn''t know what to do to be in a real relationship with a man like Andrew although she wants it so much. She wants that type of relationship but she's too selfish, petty, self centered and angry to keep it. Issa was right when she told her she would be the one that causes him to walk away. I've never understood why Molly is so angry with Issa? I was hurt and taken aback when she said they had outgrown each other. Then Molly seemed to expect Issa to persuade her differently. I'm glad Issa walked away. I love your commentary. You're spot on. .
Molly argues her point and uses her words to make a case all day everyday as a lawyer but has yet to find the words to tell Issa exactly why she's mad. It's exhausting.
@@lifewithshawnda envy is the emotion that's never spoken...
I love how your break down of each episodes. I couldn’t wait for this video!
Yay, thank you!
Mind you Andrew did not talk negatively about Nathan...he said that's a conversation that he and Issa should have! But Molly on the other hand bashes Issa at every turn!! Who needs friends like her ??
Andrew should see if she talks about her own best friend like this what will she tell people about him when/if they have a falling out.
@@lifewithshawnda I've heard so many times that you should watch how someone talks about their friends... and exes, for that matter. If they are constantly bashing them and they're "crazy" and "stupid" all that, it's a sign that you will be talked about that way the moment you do something they don't like or even just when you aren't around. It shows they don't respect the relationships they have/had.
Molly's reaction to Issa's resignation was infuriating. The only reason why you would expect someone to push back against a statement like "we don't fit in each other's lives anymore," is because you wanna bait them into an argument or an apology. That's it. You should either wanna discuss the relationship or end it. There's nothing healthy about baiting someone into conflict.
I don't think that Molly doesn't deserve Andrew but I do agree that she doesn't know how to communicate. I also that Andrew does seem tired and fed up, he's always accommodating her and she doesn't appreciate his effort. My heart broke for Issa when Molly said they were no longer a good fit, communication was all they needed to mend their friendship.
This relationship has gone on for so long because Issa has been a doormat for Molly, the one who apologizes, who always calls and tries to make up. She probably has let things slide just like Andrew is doing. That just enables her, they need to stand up. What bothers me is that Molly is so pompous and haughty with her nose up, jus proud like Issa should bow to her. Who the heck does she think she is??? Pissed me off. Felt so bad for Issa at the end, when someone says that there's no response once can give.
Eh... Issa better not go back to best friend mode with Molly. We could be cordial but she'd never get the same level of trust.
Andrew is done. Molly pretty much showed him she doesn't fit in his life by not being able to take the olive branch from his brother. That's probably the deal breaker for Andrew. They probably would've broken up that night if Nate and Issa hadn't walked in. Andrew is D-O-N-E.
Lawrence...hmmmmmm... As cute as it was to see them together I think Issa needs to move on with Nathan.
Molly wanted Issa to beg. You pretty much said y'all don't belong in each other's lives anymore. What was Issa supposed to say?! Molly's pride will be her demise and it's like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
I can’t root for Nathan. Only because being with an individual with a mental disorder is DEEP. I would actually really appreciate this show if they showed that reality of having a loved one who is not “normal” (e.g. a child with a disability, a spouse with an addiction, a family member with a mental disorder like Nathan has.) not everyone has enough room to deal with that because you really do have to love/have patience at 200%. And I don’t know if Issa really has all that. Especially being bipolar, there is a chance he slips into recklessness like how he was at Cochella. Just doing whatever. Or getting super depressed. That’s a lot and idk if Issa is the one to hold that up when she couldn’t even deal with Lawrence and his complacency
@@melanininmedicine4385 facts
This is triggering because I was much like Molly before. I had to hit rock bottom to realize I was putting too much on others that I wasn’t giving myself. I had no accountability. I still have problems with reaching out to people who have done me wrong. I’d rather end the friendship completely.
I strongly agree with you. You shouldn't have to hit rock bottom to change but it's clear someone like Molly have to go through that journey.
I hope Andrew breaks up with her, cos Molly will need to lose ALL her important relationships to really work on herself. Shes gonna have to learn the hard way
*Molly is that friend that’s friendly to you as long as you’re telling them what they want to hear...*
I think when Issa said, "I can't be the only one who's trying..." she was speaking about her and Molly and incidentally about Molly and Andrew (cuz obviously she wouldn't know what is happening there) and I agree with her 100%. I agree that Molly will have to lose everything and everyone but I feel unsure as to whether this will help her to see her fault in the situation or just be more of her "nobody ain't sh!t" mentality. I'm proud of the maturity I am seeing in Issa. Sadly, Molly needs to check herself and Issa and Lawrence won't get their happy ending cuz he is gonna move for the job....
Oh man! I'm you just reminded me: How can Molly be THIS upset with Issa for "going behind her back" with the Andrew thing, when SHE sent Nathan away and didn't tell Issa he wanted to talk to her?! I totally forgot Molly did that! Maybe Issa will find out when Nathan confesses in the finale.
Molly and Andrew break up (self-sabotage) Issa's comment at the block party was foreshadowing. Lawrence doesn't get the job and his reaction to the bad news is reminiscent of depressed Lawrence from season 1 - has he really changed? Nathan's comment about him being sometimey is also foreshadowing. Nathan tells Issa how he feels and this makes her wonder which way should she go? Was her relationship with Lawrence for a season? Does Nathan deserve a fair chance (cliffhanger). Tiffany is in distress postpartum depression. Chand and Leah are having twins!
Predictions for next season (Season 5): Molly buries herself in work and gets closer with Taurean. Dro resurfaces. We learn more about Kelly (maybe even get a dedicated episode). Issa is flourishing in the event space and has expanded her team. We might see Frieda at one of her events/ she runs into her. She's in a love triangle. Tiffany is dealing with postpartum depression and the cracks in her relationship with Derick resurface - why did he live in a hotel for six months and what happened with her coworker?🤔 Ahmal finds a new boo and he's nice to Kelly…for one episode. #InsecureHBO
Wow! You've really thought this out. Let me find out you're in the writer's room.
@@lifewithshawnda I wish. That would be a dream come true! I just like the show and see opportunities for certain characters to reappear based on what we've seen so far. I'll never forget I predicted Lawrence would reappear after watching season 3 episode 3 and he showed up in episode 5! Great review by the way. I enjoy your commentary and advice.
I can see everything but Issa’s brother being nice to Kellie,he just can’t do it,he’s too petty LOL
@@cheffalina6732 LOL. You're probably right.
Man I love how you review these shows!
So I love Issa and Lawrence together. Part of me thinks San Fran will be what breaks them up. Man that Nathan is fine! He is not even worried about Lawrence either! Molly sees herself as perfect almost. For that reason it is near impossible for her to admit when she is wrong. Issa did try but Molly didn’t bring her side of the effort to save their relationship.
I think he is going to ask her to move with him and she may not want to since she is just building her brand in their community
Molly is unbelievable at this point. I can't stand her right now. Andrew is going to leave her next episode or next season. He been sooooo patient with her but even a patient person have their limits. If Issa and Lawrence are getting back together again in a relationship, Issa got to say bye bye to Nathan. But since they don't know what their in( Lawrence and Issa) like what is this that their doing, keep Nathan or explore her options. She ain't got no ring on her finger and neither does Lawrence. Molly need to come to Issa this time because Issa tried and done beyond this point. Yeah, Molly going to hit rock bottom.
“Clutched my pearls” by end of show, lawdt! Personally, I could never be “friends like we were with Molly again”. Molly & Andrew is heading towards the end & that’s because of Molly. She is a “bitter Betty” & holds onto grudges, she doesn’t like to compromise.
They showed in the beginning of the series their connection... it was an episode during a flashback.... when the relationship was fairly new and they purchased that couch that winded up curbside...they were very much in love and happy....
You always hit it on the head. Of course Lawrence gets the job and next season we see the dynamic of him and Issa being in a long distance relationship and those challenges. They will either be engaged at the end of next season or they will split up and be friends.
Yes, Andrew has had enough of Molly and is going to move on and he has the place to himself.
Based on the written preview on the cable guide, something dramatic is going to happen with Tiffany which will bring Molly and Issa together.
As far as Issa and Lawrence go..I'm really rooting for them. The chemistry, love, affection, familiarity is still there. But I dont know if it's a trial and error type situation for Lawrence to see if hes capable of trusting her again. I think he wants to. It sucks that him moving is gonna be something that they have to deal with, because they're both in good spaces and deserve this shot. If he asks her to go with him, I kinda hope she does..new place, new vibes, maybe new friends, and a new try for her and Lawrence. Issa is a great friend no matter what..and at this point I dont wanna see Issa as Molly's soft place to land after Andrew leaves her.. like Molly needs to own her wrongs wholeheartedly. Because the breakup will do nothing but overshadow their issues and they will be pushed under the rug while Issa tries to be the good friend that she is and help Molly thru losing Andrew. I felt Issa's pain after she realized that Molly was being super fake! I would have left too..dont force it honey! And when she went as far as to say maybe they dont fit anymore..I would have bowed before I got in that uber and told her it's been real ✊ live your best life, I'm out.
Honestly, the best review on CZcams. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
BEST recap I’ve heard thus far!
Thank you so much for watching!
Andrew also seemed kind of salty that Molly just brushed over his food choice (bc she didn’t like the last order) and he looked like 😕
I think Molly expected Issa to beg her to be her friend when she said I think they outgrew each other. Issa said I guess that’s it and bounced. Molly was left like really?
Congrats sis, you just nailed it on Molly, when you talked about her therapy session!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Love keeps no record of wrongs... Love it.
Molly keeps score. That's why Issa doesn't know exactly why Molly is mad. Molly has been quietly taking notes about how she feels Issa wronged her for a LONG time.
I think Molly and Andrew started off on the wrong foot in the beginning. It was a constant battle of Andrew reminding Molly he wasn't going to take her ish, and that made her finally respect him as a person. I think Molly was attempting to cling on to him cause she felt he gave her a sense of stabiliy and calmness. However, if she is not willing to work on her own personal issues, like it seems he is encouraging her to do, she will be the reason the relationship does not work.
My thoughts exactly. Not sure why he continued to bother with her in the first place. Huge red flag to have so many issues like that so early on.
Thanks for this great analysis! After watching this episode I really needed to find people who also needed to vent about Molly. I enjoy flawed characters but this season I feel like she's downright unlikable. I've always felt a little annoyed watching her character being controlling, clingy, and stubborn. But this whole season I've felt like throwing a pillow at the tv every time she was on. I actually said out loud: "Just say you're sorry" at that last scene. Even if you aren't ready to apologize/think you're right it just seemed so cruel to be so oblivious to Issa's hurt feelings. That's your best friend. I hope she can become more introspective next season.
I love your recaps. Molly is not in a place to have a relationship with anyone. She is so used to being the successful one, she cannot stand Issa achieving. And that is sad. You right about Issa being covered up in that jumpsuit. 😂
Just because a man asked you to help him move doesn't mean you show up looking like you work for U-Haul. Lol
I do not have HBO and I appreciate that you include pictures of the set. You have gained a new subscriber.
Welcome Jazminda. Thanks for subscribing!
Life Coach, you hit the nail on the head! I absolutely loved this episode, it's going to define the development of Issa and Lawrence's future together! I loved it!
Also another part to note: when Molly bought Chinese instead of Indian takeout, even though they already agreed on Indian. He makes a face- the same he makes when she ultimately does what she wants to do w/no compromise. The camera picks up on that scene because its another moment showing him Molly’s willingness not compromise
Low key kept refreshing my page 😹😹
Lol Awwww thank you Jasmine.
First, I am so thankful Condola is not pregnant and gone. I think Asian Bae will break up with Molly. It’s clear his brother is a big part of his life because he is always on the phone with him whenever Molly comes over. I don’t think he will necessarily pick his brother over Molly. He will, however, call Molly out for not being willing to compromise regarding both his brother and Issa.
I think Issa and Molly will be officially done for a while. I think Molly’s break up with Asian Bae and Issa will force her into more therapy sessions. With time, I think Molly will be the one to reach back out to Issa next season.
Lawrence will get the job and I think they will try to make it work. Issa will continue to be friends with Nathan. Next season, they will spend more and more time together as friends, especially since she is on the outs with Molly. Issa and Nathan will cross the line messing up the Issa/Lawrence romance. ☹️
you make some good predictions but I don't; see Issa cheating again. I mean, she will have to be really stupid to do that. I think she will break things off with Lawrence-- if anything -- and then try to move on. At the very least, after learning from her mistakes in the past, she will try to respect Lawrence's feelings by doing that.
Molly, you need to attack the issue, not the person.
Love the way you put that👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I believe that there are real women out there like Molly. Ladies don’t be like Molly. Learn to forgive and move on. Anyways, I am really happy that Issa and Lawrence are back together. I can also sense that Nathan might still have feelings for Issa. Always look forward to your reviews.
I love how the boyfriends are concerned about the ladies friendship!
I can understand IF Isa and Lawrence don't wanna do the long distance relationship but I hope that it comes around when the series ends that they do end up getting married because they belong together
As long as Issa gets her happily ever after I don't care who with. Nathan has grown on me and he's always seen Issa in a way that Lawrence is just now starting to see her. I love the newly evolved Issa.
I'm not trained or anything but I love how you pinpoint things I notice in this show. From gestures to song choices... everything. Must be that good old theatre background LOL. Season Finale is gonna be good for some of us and bad for others. 🇹🇹
This is a great recap and analysis of the episode. My prediction for the season finale, Andrew and Molly take a break, but don't break-up. I think Andrew wants to give Molly time to herself, I can tell he cares for her. Lawrence gets the job in San Fran, and contemplates taking it or staying in LA to build his relationship with Issa. Nathan obviously expresses how he feels about Issa and I think at the end of the episode Issa was probably talking to Molly. I know it's far fetched but, I feel like it might lean that way.
I love your recaps!! I look forward to it every Monday... Just when I thought I couldn’t dislike Molly any more, well here we are. I was so upset when Issa reached out to Molly first. Something that I personally would never have done. But the fact that she did and Molly’s self centered ass couldn’t even meet her halfway just pissed me off. Issa was trying. Clearly Molly’s therapy isn’t working. It’s all about compromise and Molly doesn’t seem to know what that is. I can’t wait until Andrew dumps her because that’s what she deserves. And I’m definitely rooting for Issa and Lawrence!
I can’t agree with this comment anymore ! I feel the same exactly way.
Molly, needs to lose it all so she can be built back up, see HERSELF..SHINE HER EYES AND RESPECT HERSELF.. CHAI
Here is my take on this season and this episode. No one has annoyed me more than Molly this season. Molly is selfish, inconsiderate, proud,petty and just down right wicked. It all started off when she saw Issa picking up the pieces of her life and trying to move on and move up... From a homeless uber driver Issa got herself an apartment and a job. Then she started to think about what she really wanted to do hence the conversation she had with Nathan at cocella. She started thinking about having a block party so her other friend set her up with her friend condola who has connections and a network to help Issa make her vision into a reality. Now Molly seeing this new found friendship she doesn't like it and starts telling Issa that that relationship would be messy. That relationship was only going to be messy if the said parties wanted it to be messy! So I got the vibe that Molly didn't like condola and she wanted Issa to still be dependent on her. Now I think Molly is her biggest enemy she knows what her faults and flaws are but she doesn't want anyone to point them out or else she gets defensive and she knows Issa would tell her how she's sees it and this isn't the first time if we go back to previous seasons you'd see facts. Now fast forward before the block party your sister calls you up tell you she needed a favor that her headline artist to perform just pulled out and shed really need help it was last minute as a sister as a true sister you'd call your man up and as for a favor. I get that her relationship was new but it wasn't that new common now let's get real! Molly tells her she ain't gonna do it .... Again selfish and wicked. Now you go to the block party and even Andrew was proud of Issa and pointed it out to Molly like look what your friend has accomplished look it takes a lot out of a person to create this and still Molly was in her damn feelings like damn Molly be proud no one thought she could do it and she proved all her friends wrong. But the minute she finds out that Andrew did Issa a favor she goes off on her about going behind her back Molly get real no body went behind your back the only reason your in a relationship now with Andrew is because of Issa knowing Nathan and Andrew being Nathan's friend so if keep your new rules and grief to yourself. To be honest I was low key happy that their friendship ended but I was like if they can salvage it then fine but I wasn't going to hold my breath she ruined Issa's block party that was going so good and could have ended on a high note. I didn't want Issa to call first because she was always bended to please Molly and Molly has never once initiate a conversation or an apology. I thought it was really big of Issa to call even if she knew how the conversation would have played out she still stock to her guns and called her (even though I did not agree) . I am so happy for Issa and Lawrence airing things out and being able to move forward I don't mind them being apart or together because they both needed to grow individually and they did. Andrew should leave Molly for awhile, she's not trying with her family , boyfriend or friends people at her job don't even like her what should that tell you about your personality lets she what she does when no one is in her corner let her have a taste of her own medicine. I also want Lawrence to have that job in Seattle and maybe have Issa move there too that would be amazing. Molly needs a reality check and she's about to get it
