Veronica: Hello and welcome to a fresh new chapter!

How many calm before the storms are we gonna get before the true blue storm happens? Can you have multiple storms at the same time with breaks inbetween? Or is it all part of a big, bad storm?

Was Line in the Sand a storm? Or the calm before the storm itself because we have yet to fully see the ripple effects of it?

I dunno, you tell me! All I can say is that we’ve been storming it up, baby! And yet this chapter also feels like a calm before the storm… how you doin’, Mike. I think many people wanna see what you’re up to.. so let us know! We’re all here for you!

A preview of the upcoming BCB page.

Somehow I feel this chapter is going to spiral, how fast or slow might be the only thing left on the table at this point

I really hope this is the chapter he starts addressing the trauma hes been carrying around. He deserves to be happy but it will take work.

Judging by the title, I’m going to make an educated guess (delusional cope) that Mike takes the night off, goes to see a movie and hangs out with Amaya

That, or it has something to do with a train. Usually when you hear the words “tickets please”, it tends to have to do with train conductors wanting to confirm everyone has a ticket for the trip.

For real!! If i were in her shoes i wouldnt get angry i would be sad, ashmed, guilty, take your pick. Its giving she doesn’t fully understand the gravity of her actions and that her choices actually affected the people around her.

I keep thinking of the time, back in Track Meet, where she says that Mike should have been madder with her over what she did. but also yelling at her is bad. first of all, that doesn’t really leave any range of acceptable response, and also he tried to destroy his bedroom, how much angrier can you get?

Sandy does tend to come off as a little sheltered, which, yeah, rich kid who got thrown into one of the particularly awful corporate worlds. but it’s left her completely unprepared to navigate a crisis of this magnitude. the only reason why it’s working is Mike’s own guilt, and I suspect that’s running out this volume

Complaining about Francis TO MIKE… OUUUUUGH. Also girl what was so bad about Francis that your mom is being THIS overprotective about it…….. What were you doing with him………..

Well he was an adult and she’s a teenager

Wow I can’t believe she actually said that to mike of all people, is she dense?? This is the kind of stuff that makes me think she doesn’t really care about him, he is just an accessory to her even if she doesn’t realize that is what she is doing.

“God, I’m just never going to live Francis down.”

I love that she’s talking about her mum, Mike AND the audience with that one comment.

Mike seems like a ticking time bomb at this point, whether he just explodes on others again or maybe for once starts to make some changes in behavior remains to be seen. Whatever the case, he can’t keep going on like this, right??

My goodness what are these two getting out of this relationship at this point? She’s talking to a wall at this point. And poor Mike has to listen to her complain about the repercussions of cheating on him? Blaaufhahgn.

At this point, I just want to see Mike snap at her, just a little. Would it be the healthy way to go? No, but I don’t think that she would take him seriously, no matter what he does or says.

It’s so interesting to see that while Sandy has been put into a mature working environment early on, she is obviously still very much a child and one of the cast’s most (emotionally) immature characters at this point. Mentioning Francis around Mike at all is some *crazy* work. She didn’t even let a lot of time pass and is just so nonchalant about it lol. Doesn’t make it any better just because Mike is not reacting much to anything from her anymore. She’s so busy talking she doesn’t even notice him being silent and dying inside 😭 But what’s also sad to witness here is that she doesn’t seem to understand the gravity of that situationship for herself just yet, her mom seems genuinely worried her daughter has been taken advantage of and is now taking countermeasures. (Rare good mom moment for her?? I want to believe it’s genuine and not just ‘we must protect your image and keep you out of controversies’ oh please 🥲)

“How many calm before the storms are we gonna get before the true blue storm happens?” Is a really good question Veronica.

Complaining about no one moving on from her cheating to her boyfriend she cheated on is a new level of low and oblivious I cannot fathom. Wow.

Hearing your SO complain about the repercussions they got from cheating on you is absolutely insane.

Stay strong Mike.
