tbh i don’t think it’s that weird that they didn’t immediately jump to the worst possible conclusion. cosmetics get discontinued ALL the time. i've never been very into makeup and even i can’t count how many times a product i liked just stopped existing, you know?

i can understand being frustrated with it though because it wouldn’t hurt for one of them, at least in the back of their minds, to be like “does this mean anything? should we be concerned?” but then again, why would they? their fbi problem went away with turner’s death as far as they know.

i don’t understand why beth didn’t tell rio about the nail polish though if i’m being honest. like i know she still sort of thinks that if she’s not printing cash for him, she’ll be considered useless and he’ll kill her (them) and i also think there’s a strong possibility that he’d be like “if there’s a problem, put on your big girl panties and fix it” but it was just a weird narrative choice for her to lie to him about his operation being affected by the cost of ink going up and then not tell him about the nail polish. especially since she felt perfectly fine telling him they had to change the formula and it was impossible to go back to the original one.
