Meanwhile Cassie is freaking out because she thinks Maddy will find out about her and Nate-and kill her. Here in Kat’s bedroom, however, it is the man who is under our gaze, not Kat. The fantasy is a dig on Game of Thrones, which was criticized for its dramatized sex.

Euphoria has been committed to showing male genitalia on screen, perhaps as a criticism of its own medium-a premium cable TV company that has gratuitously shown female genitalia for decades. Obviously, this is Kat’s fantasy-and one symbolically substituting rough Game of Thrones sex (really, rape) for what is likely an impotence issue in her relationship with Ethan. Kat tells the girls in the bathroom it was Ethan doing the conquering. In the bathroom, Ethan is impaled by a Dothraki warrior who then enters the bedroom to “conquer” Kat. We see a recreation of Kat and Ethan making out. Through Rue, we learn that Kat thinks Ethan is sweet, but there’s something upsetting her. The girls are in the bathroom where Kat is asked about her sex life with Ethan. Instead, the mother asks Maddy to help her unzip her dress and the camera lingers just a bit too long, leading us to think there might be some weird stuff about to happen between Maddy and this mom. When the parents return, Maddy almost gets caught. We learn she mostly babysits so she can try on all of the mother’s clothes in their walk-in closet. Turns out Maddy is trusted around children-also super rich children. Maddy tells her this while babysitting from a house somewhere in the California hills. Maddy later tells Cassie that Nate texted.
(Remember, she hooked up with Nate at the NYE party.) Cassie decides she wants to be single even though she has never really been single, and, like, totally does not want to be single. Meanwhile, Cassie becomes increasingly awkward around Maddy, her best friend. Then Elliot shows up, Rue gets weird (she’s been hanging with Elliot and doing drugs, even though Jules thinks she’s sober), and Jules leaves upset. Next, we return to school where Rue and Jules mack in the hallway, Rue narrating, explaining she finally has everything she always wished for. He also imagines his father dying, which frees him from most of his current woes-including the fact that Maddy still has a recording of Daddy Jacobs hooking up with Jules, an object which seems to have become Nate’s grail quest. He imagines a life with her, including her bearing his child. After the PartyĪccording to Rue, Nate begins falling for Cassie as he is transported to the hospital. The rest of the episode proceeds from there. What’s important for episode 2, however, are things we learn about Nate’s post-assault state: he inexplicably loves Cassie now. Maybe the entire show is a lie Rue tells to a group of addicts in an AA meeting.

This unreliability allows the series to dial up full bombast. (Her and Jules’ matching tattoos, for example.) Her unreliability has been proven several times over, as we often see things that don’t actually occur, or jive with her telling of them.
At this point, nothing Rue says should be taken without a pinch of powder. Several times this episode she reminds us she wasn’t there-or sober-to know exactly what happened. How Rue is able to make these moves has always been suspect. Episode 2, though it begins with Nate, will make several character jumps, accessing multiple people’s thoughts and activities. Episode 1 featured Fez, whose adolescence Rue chronicles from criminal witness to criminal. Nate is carried to a car by several people as Rue’s narration begins.Įach Euphoria episode tends to favor a single character with Rue acting as third-party narrator. The following contains spoilers for Euphoria season 2 episode 2.Įuphoria’s second episode picks up where episode one left off: at the New Year’s Eve house party where Fez attempts to follow through on his threat against Nate, namely, by killing him.
