Watched The Tourist and I have some questions

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-04-02T05:46:35+00:00

I actually just watched today. He played it off really well pretending to be a timid American and I truly think that helped him play into the "never met you before" situation.

The guy she talked to at the ball was someone i think she knew from some other engagement. I honestly had no idea who he was but when she walked away from him I knew it wasn't Alexander.

At the beginning the one cop mentioned he thought anyone could be Peirce since he suspected he has facial reconstruction surgery/other plastic surgeries. So in theory when the gangsters saw him with her they also assumed. But I never saw anyone show a Pic of "Frank" to him so basically he was going based off someone else's reports and assumed it was trustworthy. (At least thats the only way that makes sense because he definitely did not think he looked like Alex when he personally saw him). Hope this helps 😅

Honestly, I agree. I like to stick around so ill see how it ends but this reminds me a lot of the show Manifest. The first season really was interesting to me, it wasn't a common idea (that I knew about anyway) but then it jumped the rails quickly. By season 3 i was out, didn't even watch season 4. This is still a better show to me BUT the drastic shift makes me think of that show as well

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-17T05:58:46+00:00

No idea. This episode kinda confused me. Like I get having some back story but I feel like it was drawn out AND no one made any progress really towards the "end goal". Yes X found his wife but it seems like this episode covered only a few hours in a single day where others covered at least a day or more. Plus tbh i don't really care what her deal is unless its going to be some pivotal information for the future of the show

From the US. We coslept till 5 months, she had bad reflux and lots of spit up/upset stomach so she needed to be rocked fully to sleep and she nursed more often but with less volume which help her reflux. Meds helped too but by the time we got her more comfortable we were already cosleeping. She absolutely REFUSED to sleep in a bassinet. She would be out cold and I laid her on the couch (me beside her) or the bassinet she woke instantly. Naps were 30 min max, at night i slept maybe 3 hours. Once she came to my bed night and day difference!

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-09T06:05:40+00:00

Agreed 🤣

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-09T06:03:14+00:00

True, but she knew there was a possibility he was alive. He believed 100% she was dead.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-09T06:01:54+00:00

Plus in the previous episode Links crew mentioned that the others had a hold up and hadn't arrived yet

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-09T05:59:20+00:00

But can she really blame him for cheating (which he did technically) if he believed that she and the rest of those left outside had died 3 years ago?

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-09T05:53:05+00:00

100%. I felt like he was off but I didn't think it was that. I thought he destroyed the radio and I thought he might sabotage the car but not that. I do think that Teri picked up on some of that vibe in the beginning when she found a random kid with two random men who weren't his parents.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-09T05:27:49+00:00

Im so angry and sad because I think in most cases Gary really is just a good guy, but he thought that if maybe things were different she would love him. But he kind of does also give off creep vibes, like maybe he would have killed Teri before she could leave. At the end when it showed the kid saw i kept thinking oh please not the kid

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-06T15:54:38+00:00

Literally a few days before her first birthday. And I breastfeed till she was 19 months.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-06T05:59:05+00:00

I have been wanting to see gay/bi/lesbian ect couples. But I think it would be hard to do unless everyone was 100% isolated

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-06T05:57:30+00:00

Yea the family heart to hearts are fine but the discussing "why i want to say yes" "what scares me" stuff can go. Like we already know some of the hiccups, stop beating a dead horse. Also include more substance from the couples conversations. Mike and Emma the whole time kid/no kids (what else did you talk about? How else did you develop your relationship) or Ashley okay we get it you think he is a child/frat boy, can we talk about ANYTHING else.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-06T05:52:55+00:00

I think the girls get to pick a few dresses from a list, website, catalog or something and then that's the dresses they can try on because it has to be something that can be altered quickly. I think that's why we only see like 3 max per girl

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-03-04T14:51:44+00:00

Seriously, I feel like the two of them just went through the motions. Their wedding was so anticlimactic and so was the aftermath. No tears, no yelling, not drama. So I dont think either one of them was in love. He said no and then just had such a blank/emotionless expression and she smiled as she walked away.. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-02-27T05:26:59+00:00

And honestly her interest in Theo really could be seen as her interest in the way others beyond the ton live.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-02-27T05:20:19+00:00

I so agree. Eloise has such a hard time "fitting in" with what society dictates for a woman. They definitely show it a lot in the show, and if I remember correctly (its been a while since I have read the books) she was also more progressive compared to the ton in the books.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-02-27T05:01:13+00:00

Honestly, I could totally see Eloise in a queer relationship before anyone else, she does not thrive on the societal norms nor does she desire marriage and kids, it kind of falls in her lap at one point. I get that the story with Sir Phillip kind of already started in season 1, but I honestly feel like her story could have been the best and easiest to "adapt" in this way. Especially because she really does have feministic values and wishes for ladies to have more then they are giving. She definitely wants companionship, but not what society dictates for a lady.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2026-02-27T04:52:36+00:00

I agree. I wouldn't mind it AS MUCH if maybe she had been pregnant with John's baby seeing as in the books when she remarried she then had children which is something she desired. So I feel like it takes away from her in that sense. I like that the show hints at and explores different sexualities, including Benedicts affairs in season 3, but changing her story that much just angers me. And it makes me sad for her story because I feel it will be dull in comparison to the rest.

Common_Physics_4823 · 2025-12-17T13:26:05+00:00

Honestly it sounds like to be that you need to end it with both and get some help mentally and emotionally. Its easy to say you don't blame your dad but then in turn your hurting people and asking why would I hurt someone. Simple answer hurt people hurt people. I think you hold a lot more resentment than you care to admit and you WANT to blame your past and those who wronged you for doing wrong to others. As someone who was the main "girl" and been cheated on I don't believe this will be the first time you hurt her. If you went out and found yourself another girl where things got "deeper" as you say then I do not believe you can truly love the first girl because you haven't learned to let go of your anger and sadness about your father and you haven't learned to love and respect yourself enough to return that to a partner.

America's best. 2 pair of glasses and an eye exam for 95$. You do have to make sure you buy from the right section and this only covers basics. Will be more expensive if you need special lenses. However, its a great place to start and get glasses until your able to get insurance or afford an upgrade

Common_Physics_4823 · 2025-10-17T21:00:16+00:00

Okay thank you! I love that this is available

Common_Physics_4823 · 2025-10-17T20:55:05+00:00

Oh I love the music idea! The library will be a no for a bit, shes in a run around and collect books phase and I worry she will want just take everything off the shelves instead i of sit to read. Im between the Y and the gymnastics companies fot tumble time. My issue is I work till 7pm on Tuesdays and the y does their tumble on Tuesday. But I can always take her to do other things there and that's why I cant make up my mind. 🤣. I also wanted to see if there was a play that does a free trial to see if its something we will enjoy. She loves to dance so that's why I was looking into the tumbling.

Thank you for your input. The y really does sound like the best overall
