We see this not only in this episode, but in the Texas episodes (which we will address later) and the episodes that follow after Ski Lodge. This is not only a common occurrence throughout all of the show in relation to Rilucas, but how every one of their attempts to “get together” end up. Or at least they can’t talk as comfortably as they used to. I’ll link it right here -> Smoothie PostĪnyways, as we see, as soon as Riley and Lucas become “official” or “feelings enter into their dynamic” they can’t talk. Girl Meets the New made a very interesting post on smoothies and how that all relates to this. Lucas: Yeah but those are just words, Riley. Riley: We’re boyfriend and girlfriend now. I don’t know why it’s so hard for us to talk all of a sudden. Riley: Comfortable with each other, yeah. Lucas: Yeah, look at all these NYU students. Riley: Yeah, going to be a great hang out, isn’t it? Lucas: I think your mom did a really good job on this place. Riley: It’s too bad, because you’re one of my favorite people to talk to. Lucas: Yeah, we haven’t talked to each other much at all. Over the course of the show, we see Riley and Lucas try multiple times to sort out their feelings to no avail.Īnd this is the first of many attempts where they just aren’t on the same wavelength. While this episode along with GM First Date were very Rilucas focused, it did bring up something I found very interesting. Also, I do analyze other characters as well, but it all goes back to Riley and Farkle at the end. So don’t be confused if you see me talk about other characters/themes - it all ties back to Riley and Farkle. What you guys will notice is that while there are some Riley & Farkle moments, a lot of the episodes have meta more than direct moments. That’s all!Īnyways, just a gripe more than anything else! Let’s get it.Īctually, I lied. ![]() This is just a personal opinion I’m inserting in here cause I felt like it needed to be said. I never really found it funny, just borderline rude and definitely awkward. In the first three minutes of this ep, we’ve already seen Riley make at least 3-5 comments on Maya’s situation. Just keep that in mind!Īnd just as a quick aside before I actually start analyzing this episode, I have NEVER been a fan of the way they take jabs at Maya’s life situation. Also, I tend to go on quite a few side-rants, so while this is an analysis, it is just as much a brain dump as well. It wouldn’t make sense for me to talk about it later when it is a direct continuation of the last episode of season one. Hopefully this part of the analysis will be able to change some perspective on Riley + Farkle’s relationship.Īlso like I mentioned last time, I will be following the production order from this post -> GMW Prod Orderīut all that aside, let’s tackle the first episode:Ī/N: I know that technically this episode comes later in the season production wise, but story wise it is a direct continuation of First Date. ![]() ![]() As we saw in season one, Farkle was initially the boy who the girls didn’t take seriously. For those of you who haven’t seen part one of this analysis, here’s the link: Ĭarrying on where we left off last time, season two shows a much greater development of Riley and Farkle’s relationship. Season ll had quite a few Riley/Farkle moments that need to be discussed. Word Count: 12, 111 (wut) - Just so y’all know, this one the longest thing I put out here! If y’all want to just fav, reblog, and then finish it all later, I completely understand.
