One word for episode 9 - Cuteeee
A lot happened in episode 9âa lot. I could go on about so many moments, but what really stood out to me was Thameâs jealousy. It wasnât over-the-top or dramatic, but rather a perfect blend of childish insecurity and mature restraint, making it one of the cutest part of the episode.
The moment Thame found out that Po still had some of his exâs belongings at homeâand even used them from time to timeâyou could just see the shift in his expression. And then came the revelation that Po still goes to the same sandwich shop, ordering the exact same thing he used to get with his ex. Now, I wonât lieâif I were in that situation, I might have started a full-on argument right then and there. But Thame? He handled it so differently.
Instead of confronting Po aggressively, he let his jealousy manifest in the most innocent yet meaningful ways. He brought over his own clothes and placed them in Poâs wardrobe, subtly marking his presence. He introduced a matching cup, as if to say, I want to be a part of your everyday life too. And then, the best partâhe went to the sandwich shop and deliberately ordered something Poâs ex would never pick, as if to rewrite their shared habits in his own way.
These little actions werenât about control or possessiveness; they were about wanting to feel special in someoneâs life. And thatâs what made this episode so endearing. Instead of escalating into a fight, it turned into a sweet, happy, and lighthearted moment that captured the essence of Thame and Poâs relationship.
This episode reminded me that jealousy, when handled with love and patience, doesnât have to be toxic. It can be playful, heartwarming, and even a little bit adorable.
