Members ChitHappens Posted January 30, 2016 Members Share Posted January 30, 2016 OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYY GAAAAAAAWD! What a twist! Let me watch this again! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted January 30, 2016 Members Share Posted January 30, 2016 incredible twist!!!! he said versus he said...this could be interesting. The funny thing is how believable the other guy sounded. He's totally convinced that what happened was planned and consensual. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted January 30, 2016 Members Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) But the "victim" is not that credible either. He went to a party for a guy on guy hook and let everything get out of hand. I think he's a sociopath. Why would the other guy try to kill himself if he's a violent rapist? He's struggling with homosexuality and I believe he's innocent. Edited January 30, 2016 by ChitHappens 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted January 31, 2016 Members Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) I don't think Taylor was asking to be drugged or get that wasted. I know he shouldn't have lied about basically sexting Eric, he's young, confused and obviously a very horny kid. Remember he didn't want his mom to do anything. I felt really bad for Evy, though. I think the motives behind Eric's attempt suicide was a three way combo of his parents' divorce, him being in the closet and that secret that he might have committed rape. The suspense of it all...

Members Vee Posted January 31, 2016 Members Share Posted January 31, 2016 A sociopath? You need to stop. Taylor hasn't accused anyone by name yet; his mother has taken the lead with the accusations. He hasn't named Eric. And he may not be clear on what happened that night, like many rape cases where the victim is impaired. I believe he went there to hook up with Eric; I believe they probably did hook up. Afterwards he got drugged and I think the rest of the team most likely violated him. And Eric either watched or joined in and let the team do what they wanted to the "faggot," because he was too afraid to out himself or go against the group. I feel for Eric and I think Joey Pollari is giving a great performance but I don't think Taylor is lying at all, or out to get anyone. He just wants all this to go away. Both boys are keeping big secrets about that night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted January 31, 2016 Members Share Posted January 31, 2016 I think people are misinterpreting my last post. I was ambivalent but he way the guy who attempted suicide came across was very genuine to me and the supposed victim has been so wish washy. I want to believe him but at the same he's been acting so suspicious. I almost feel like he wanted to have sex and the results weren't exactly what he wanted... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted February 2, 2016 Members Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) I don't see how this isn't straight forward assault. Even if the kid went to the party looking for sex, his clothes were stained with blood, semen and most importantly, GHB. The blood could possibly be explained away by rough sex, but GHB is an obvious identifier in any kind of sexual assault case. He was drugged and cannot consent. Meaning anyone who touched him is a rapist. That's an obvious no fly zone regarding consensual consent. The fact that they found GHB is more than enough evidence for a rape charge. Once I heard that I knew that the school and Felicity Huffman's character were both in a huge cesspool of trouble, and she is going to look like an even larger fool the more she pushes this victim blaming narrative. Throw the book at all of them. So disgusted with all of these characters from the school to the football team to the enabling parents who are more concerned with getting their children out of legal trouble than have them take responsibility for their actions. The law enforcement is even more vile. Edited February 2, 2016 by Skin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted February 4, 2016 Members Share Posted February 4, 2016 That episode... Looks like we are at the midpoint 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted February 4, 2016 Members Share Posted February 4, 2016 After last nights episode I'm not at all convinced it was an assault and I completely understood why the police didn't file charges. Eric came across petulant and annoyed with the whole situation but also truthful. Meanwhile I still get the impression that the other guy (Taylor/Tyler) is hiding something still. He should be grateful his spurned girlfriend was decent enough to support his story and speak her thoughts on it. The principal played by Felicity Huffman....so terrible and yet so effortless in her devious schemes. That performance at the end was so haunting. I don't know about y'all but I kept expecting something absolutely horrifying to occur during that sequence of some type of scandal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted February 5, 2016 Members Share Posted February 5, 2016 I was thinking the same thing at the end. FH is flawless as this horrible principal...I have never cared for Hope Davis or Liy Taylor, but both are fantastic here as well...As for Regina...also great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted February 5, 2016 Members Share Posted February 5, 2016 That was incredibly well-done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted February 5, 2016 Members Share Posted February 5, 2016 (edited) I haven't had a chance to watch this yet, but from what I am reading I feel like I am going to want to throw a brick wall at FH's character when I am done with this. It's hard to watch this show sometimes because it's so realistic and palpable. The ignorance, stupidity and inherent wrongness of the ethics concerning their actions almost becomes overwhelming. I need this school to be closed down, it's so disgusting. Edited February 6, 2016 by Skin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted February 7, 2016 Members Share Posted February 7, 2016 I just realized its entirely possible that Taylor was raped after his encounter with Eric...esp if he was inebriated and went into a worse condition after the initial situation. Something tells me that there is more to the story that night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted February 7, 2016 Members Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Taylor already said he was drugged when Eric penetrated him. Edited February 7, 2016 by Skin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
