Cal and mckay euphoria series#
You could write a dramatic HBO series about the show’s controversy, but here’s a not-so-comprehensive timeline of Euphoria’s harshest comedowns. And beyond the quality of the show itself, circulating rumors and interview quotations have painted a troubling picture of a set dominated by a shortsighted auteur. Every week like clockwork, his name lands in Twitter’s trending topics with questions not just about the latest episode but wondering whether the Assassination Nation filmmaker was a good writer in the first place. Euphoria was born the subject of feverish debate, but the conversation - mostly directed at the show’s creator, director, and sole writer, Sam Levinson - is noticeably different this time. As the second season of HBO’s first teenage-coming-of-age series has progressed, fans have become increasingly divided on the direction of its story lines, from the love triangle between Rue (Zendaya), Jules (Hunter Schafer), and newcomer Elliot (Dominic Fike) to Kat’s (Barbie Ferreira) nonexistent arc. The last time we see Jules, she’s on a train to the city, Rue having pulled out of their plan to escape together at the very last minute.The teens at Euphoria High have endured their fair share of drama, but even that doesn’t compare to the chaos ensuing off-screen. Will they be able to keep it together after this? Will Rue and Jules get back together? In the finale, Cassie does what he wants and gets an abortion, but McKay is nowhere to be seen. Instead of asking her what she wants to do and offering her support, he basically tries to shut down any positive connection she could have with keeping it, treating her as if she’s naive and stupid for even considering it. When Cassie tells McKay she’s pregnant in episode 7, he doesn’t react well. Will Fez survive? Will Cassie and McKay’s relationship last after her abortion? The last we see of Fez is him asking, “We good?” as Mouse stares moodily between him and the blood-splattered bucks. A bloody fight ensues with some of the doctor’s platelets getting on the cash he takes to Mouse. Left needing to make up the money, he robs the doctor who supplies Mouse but things turn nasty when said doctor pulls a gun on Fez. As things threaten to spill out of Nate’s control, will the police catch on and discover the real perpetrator or will Tyler continue to take the blame for a crime he didn’t commit?Īfter Nate tipped the police off about Fez’s drug-dealing business, he was forced to flush the drugs Mouse had fronted him for. Not content with already having beaten Tyler within an inch of his life, he returned to the college student’s apartment to give him a choice – ‘fess up to abusing Maddy or be accused of raping her in McKay’s pool. Will Tyler get justice?Īfter Nate choked Maddy at the carnival, he came up with a seriously evil plan to clear his name with the cops. Just who is he? Some fans have theorised it’s Ethan, which would definitely be an interesting twist considering that uplifting moment between the pair in the finale. When they come to Skype, his camera is turned off and his voice disguised. Initially, she turns him down, but then he buys everything on her Amazon Wishlist for her. Who’s behind the disguised voice that pays Kat to strip for him on Skype?Īs Kat’s camgirl business continues to grow, she gets a request from a man to Skype for 30 minutes in exchange for $300. With it confirmed that our narrator isn’t dead, we’re left wondering what exactly that speech was for. Rue was seen in the pews but that could easily have been her ghost. She delivered it from a stage in what could have been a church, Rue’s little sister Gia sat looking sad beside her. If that’s true, though, what did happen to her? So what was her mum’s speech for in the finale?Ī key factor in fans believing Rue was dead was the monologue her mum gave in the finale. Many fans have taken it to mean she overdosed and died, although creator Sam Levinson has confirmed that not to be the case. Seconds later, she’s been pulled back up by an unseen force and begins jerkily flying through her house and out onto the street where she’s surrounded by a choir and marching band. In the final scenes of the finale, we see Rue relapse and fall back onto her bed.
Euphoria, the hard-hitting HBO hit series that just landed in the UK, certainly kept us guessing throughout its eight episodes as storylines twisted and turned, and characters progressed and changed in unpredictable ways.
