No show has ever made me sob over the death of the antagonist/villain, but I cried so hard over Silco. Because over all of his flaws and how cruel he could be, he really was the good guy in his world. He had a movement he cared so deeply about, and a daughter that he valued over anything, and his death just hit so hard for me, Jinx's reaction just made me cry harder, this show is too fuckin good

My brother wasn't violent until, in his 50s, he tried to punch our elderly aunt in the face. My cousin, who is intellectually disabled, had to stop him.

i always thought jinx had paranoid shizophrenia and fear of abandonment.... but this makes more sense

In the deleted scenes for the beginning of this episode it would’ve shown when Vi was put in jail and presumed dead Ekko was going to step up and save Jinx/Powder from Silco but in the end she chose Silco. (Jinx would slap Ekko like Vi did with her, Ekko realizes he lost her too). You should rewatch the bridge fight and look for these behaviors and gestures, putting more weight on “the boy savior”, jinx acting like it’s just a game until she sees how much pain and anger Ekko has because he always fought with a mask, Ekko realizes that powder is really gone. Also adding more weight to the next season’s episodes like S2 E9 especially S2 E7

Very late to the party here, but I just got to say, I love that quote from Viktor. "In our pursuit of great, we failed to do good". That resonates so much with me, not just in the parent/child dynamic as you pointed out, but in so many aspects of life - it's like telling us to take a step back from our ambitions, dreams or goals, and try to remember why we are pursuing those in the first place.

PLEASE do season 2

Simple vocals but incredibly gorgeous

One thing I realised is that, never trust or love a great with bpd. No matter what you do for her, she will leave you like you're nothing all of sudden.

you can tell she didn’t want to leave jinx in episode 7. She was so hesitant but she just loved cait so much and didn’t want to lose cait when jinx was already lost. She needs just as much help as jinx does and she thinks everything is her fault because of what happened to jinx. Her, using humor to deflect the trauma, is NOT safe.

11:23 THE PANIC OMG REAL 13:58 Silco telling her not to listen to her isnt at all bad it’s him knowing that the names are triggers for her

The motivation in using cognitive empathy is the key - if it's used to sincerely connect and help others, impact is positive. If the dark side of cognitive empathy is their motivation, it can be used to gaslight, manipulate or exploit etc , then it becomes problematic. Unless it’s Wednesday. She’s bored or avoids any kind of "feelings." The Military mind in a sense.

To fill the holes.

5:56 what is this from?

6:24 I have fragmented memories and I always have since I was really young. Whenever I get upset I see fragments of memories. I only see bad parts of the memory but when I’m happy I experience the same memories but the happy stuff in it. Whenever I am in school and have a panic attack or anxiety. I think of the times I was in the same situation with my friend calming me down and making me laugh. It stops me from having a full on panic attacks and breakdown which I have mostly controlled now. And I physically see them as if they’re there

Omg tysm I just realized I've accidentally been doing this to my best friend I will stop now❤

i need you back in szn 2 please 😭

The Eko -Jinx fight is one of the most beautiful, heartbreaking scenes on TV.

Omg. My life has been so miserable because of his bullshit... Now what

This is a movie, and it was scripted, Not real!

Did anyone ever stop to think that maybe she wasnt having visual hallucinations but they made it that way to convey the battle warring inside of her head and heart? In order to show her turmoil they have to rely mostly on expressions, body language and the visual. Im not stating this is the case and that she didn't hallucinate but I truly believe she had paranoid delusions like I get with my BPD. I don't hallucinate but I saw it all as what thought patterns were ruminating and were thrashing around inside her mind at those moments. Again, just my personal take and something we possibly could discuss. Much love guys!! Happy New Year! xx

I’m a clinical psychologist & these dangers apply to their therapeutic relationships as well. My last patient with BPD has gone to great lengths to ruin my life ever since I terminated with her. Her retaliation began with her denying she ever attended 2/3 of her appointments with me. This resulted in her parents sending two lawyers after me to get a refund for those appointments she denied having with me to the tune of $15,000. My lawyer urged me to go along with their demands in hopes that would be the end of it. So I immediately issued a refund for the entire amount. Then they came after me for raising my rates by $25, so I had to give them ANOTHER refund for all of her appointments in 2024 after I raised my rates. I didn’t challenge these demands either because I was again hoping this would end their incessant bullying & harassment. Nope! Next thing I know, they filed several formal complaints against me with the psychology board in my state. They went so far as to get the Department of Justice involved in the investigation. THEY JUST DON’T STOP! The Board is currently reviewing my records to decide if they are going to insist on a formal hearing or will dismiss the case in my favor. It’s been 5 weeks since I turned everything over to them, so idk if that means good news or bad news. Time will tell. I just want all the clinicians out there to know that these folks with BPD are a huge liability because they will go to the end of the Earth to ruin our careers & destroy our lives. The LIES she made up about me are so outrageous they are actually impossible. She told me during my second session with her that she was suing her last psychiatrist so that alerted me to document EVERYTHING. My therapy notes and my progress notes show clear, long-standing patterns of lying, manipulation, abuse, and delusional thinking. She threatened to sue me if I ever diagnosed her with BPD, but my notes scream “severe BPD” throughout. Anyone on the Board with half a brain will read between the lines & and see that her complaints against me are half-baked at best. This misfortune will easily set me back $100K in legal fees and clawbacks. READERS, BEWARE!!

there's another way to interpret silco's "we? who's we?" comment. it's in response to sevika calling jinx "a problem," which is the core of a lot of her trauma. silco probably knew that jinx was listening to that conversation, and he jumped to distance himself from people who think of her that way. i think this is supported by the fact that he immediately turns the blame back around on sevika, even though she wasn't really at fault. he's assuring jinx of his loyalty. "don't worry, you're not a problem, and i am not associated with anyone who thinks you are."

Season 2 now pleaseeee

Nope, I’m angry because the world hates women and I am a woman. Not an emotion, just a provable fact.

Thank you so much for being so open honest & vulnerable in sharing all of this amazing information! It truly helps seeing BPD from a personal perspective ❤

why bpd peaople are so fascinating?

Silco never betrayed Jinx. Even when he died by her hand. Something her own sister can't say. I mean...no matter what, Silco's the better family. He kinda won that.

I would never trust anyone with this disorder. I’m sorry but why do some many with bpd want to become nurses and therapists? It’s quite scary.

English Victor sounds so wheird xD

Well who doesn't harm us or betray us?! I get Jinx. I was betrayed by my own brother in the worst way. I have zero trust.

Pleaseeeee react and post season 2. After seeing your reaction to this, you NEED to see season 2!

BPDs are not curable but under controllable.

Medarda is the family name, Mel is the counselor's name, Ambessa is the mother.

The Council voted with Jayce as he is now the power player on the council, ever since Mel told him his anti-corruption campaign was a political blunder that made him everyone's enemy, he turned it quickly into a power play with his 'Hextech Partners.' They want the promised returns now, not limited by Heimerdinger's warnings. About Jinx wanting to be found... she always did. Note that the flare gives off blue smoke as a signal. Now take a close look at her tattoos, unconsciously she always wanted Powder to be found again.

Your interpretation/vision of and into Fleabag has really made me understand what it feels like to be an adult. I have been rocking around these last fifty five years thinking that I had to make sense of the way I reacted to how people treated me in the past. The past is an illusion. This is so basic but I'm just now getting it on a personal level,,,,which of course is the point ultimately. Fuck my brain. Thank you.

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you.🎉

Mygooooooooooooosh! I feel this.

How to come into UNCONDITIONAL LOVE: connect in your heart with GODFATHERMOTHER. 2. Ask HIM/SHE to create a COLUMN OF LIGHT around you so that everything dark can go into the LIGHT. 3. Focus on your spiritual HEART where you feel your feelings and say to yourself in your mind: I'm going into resonance to UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. 4. You can direct this LOVE with your will: "I LOVE me", "I LOVE the fear of...", "I LOVE the anger at..." or whatever comes to mind. If you think in LOVE of a person with whom you previously had difficulties, this relationship will harmonize in LOVE. LOVE like the sun.

I know this channel hasn't been active in a few years, but I really enjoyed this series and it would be great if you did a reaction series for season 2 some time! Thanks for all your insightful commentary :)

A girl first name and a girl last name, unless you referr to dick Tracey which was a comic book idea

Interpreting a neutral face as an angry one… ugh… it’s like this universal theme in anyone who’s had childhood trauma. We got so used to scrutinizing our parents’ facial expressions so we would know to lay low when they’re angry. And now as adults we do the same.

when you said that you're a therapist with BPD i couldn't hold back my tears 😭 i quit nursing after 7 years because of BPD and have been struggling a lot with the fear of never being successful again. so thank you 🙏🏻

The threats to breakup can be included in the last one?

Help their victims destroying my life means no BP will ever get a sniff of empathy from me or any cluster b for that matter .

I don't know why, but Jinx gave me the EXACT same vibe i got from Claudia in The Dragon Prince!

Will you PLEASE make reaction videos for S2?! I love your insight about this show! It opened my eyes more to how well the creators constructed all the characters, especially the ptsd that Jinx is going through. I would love to know the psychology behind the rest of the story.

Most of the times, I don’t even know what I’m angry about

Hi, react to season 2 please!???

Meanwhile my mind still gaslighting me "nahh you're just weak and can't handle anything, you're not even being abused"
