Two hypocrites, who don't know they're hypocrites, fighting lol. I LIVE for this show.

[@VJ-zw7xz]

Yes

[@powerpufftsubasa2536]

I felt like laughing. Every time each mother claims she's in the "right", I could tell how laughable her speech really felt. Literally both mothers "love" their children in a self-serving attitudes without realizing they're both in the black hole

and their daughters showed more appreciation toward the other mother soon after this

This show is fantastic. Too bad people won't get to see it like that.

[@zoramavrinac2784]

Not everyone has the privilege of good choices. Some of us make the best choice out of bad choices- Socioeconomic. Or our choices are focused on day to day survival.

[@evanderzufarsetiawan2511]

True

[@PjD0150]

Very true. And I liked how they showed that privilege. Can’t remember if it was this one or the one previous where Bebe was 70c short to buy formula was basically ridiculed for it and when Izzie was 70c short for the bus the driver forgave the charge.

[@Jara.F.Johnson]

Only that Mia had the privilege of good choices and options. And didn't use them. And like Elena doesn't want to take any responsibility, in typical narcissistic manner, she would blame everything else. When I first saw this clip, I would assume she came from as harsh an upbringing as she FORCED her daughter to have. Almost homeless, abusive hoesehold etc. Patterns that force you to make bad choices. No she came from a middle class normal family, sitting on 400k photo. Letting her daughter have the homeless experience and no safety or stability in her formative years just for the fun of it.

[@akshaya6770]

Mia stole a baby from a couple who were fighting infertility. That's not choice made out of socio-economic conditions. She could've used the money the couple gave her to complete her education and could've had a comfortable life. Pearl would've had a comfortable life too , with Joe and Maddie.

[@yumiru1515]

Episode 04 was such a great episode! Was literally on the edge of my seat from start to finish.

[@Lalaland666-k3x]

“A good mother puts her daughters needs before her own” uh…….. has Elena even MET herself??

[@tjlowe1604]

You know Elena is a Karen, but she has a point too you can’t keep your children as prisoners and just because she’s a hypocrite she’s not wrong

[@jmbalvarez5228]

Sorry but I actually think that Bebe was wrong on how she confronted the problem with Mei Ling. True. She was her mother but she was incapable of taking care of her on her own. The foster mom had already bonded with her and truly bonded with the child. I’m not saying Bebe didn’t deserved to be a part of her life, just that she could have found a way to have both of them be Mei Ling’s mother. I didn’t liked that whole there can be only one vibe because in either way, Mei Ling wasn’t getting her best life

[@Rainbow_1312]

This is referenced in my Sociology class a way to understand the difference between Choices and Decisions

Please please please...don't let the show end at season 1... please...it is sooo interesting and it is really nice ...

[@ameliawilliams5311]

I hope the show goes on i really do...take us to what happened after they worked their way to finding out how the house got burnt down..i don't want it to end

[@tmitchem81]

It's meant to a limited series on purpose. It's not supposed to drag out a season after season explainer storyline. It's meant to leave you unfinished and using your imagination for the rest like a great book.

[@KarmaOfDisgust]

I definitely do not like Elena, but to be fair she never "begged" for Mia to be her maid. She offered and Mia accepted.

Je suis un peu restée sur ma faim mais très belle série en effet. J'avais hâte de revoir Kerry après la fin de SCANDAL !!!!

[@randommemer1345]

I came here for my sweet baby Izzy, she is the only one in this show who had it right.

[@thelittlewerido2515]

The final episode, when the scene cuts to her hitchhiking, and then she wakes up from that dream when I first saw that it brought me to tears and I don’t cry very often on TV shows and movies

[@akshaya6770]

Izzy is a little brat.

[@neutralman9124]

The Battle of the Lisps. Don't get angry, Kerry Washington and Reese Witherspoon are fantastic on this show.

[@morraalexandria7328]

I read the book, but this adaptation was way beyond expected. Was kinda hoping Izzy actually found their car in the road in the end and when Bebe stole her baby back could have been more dramatic. Also, who'd choose Trip over Moody? A great one nevertheless, I wish it got more hype.

[@Jara.F.Johnson]

Mia had the privilege of good choices and options though. She always placed her needs above her daughters, a terrible mother. And just like Elena, she doesn't want to take any responsibility. In a typical narcissistic manner, she would blame everything else. When I first saw this clip 30 seconds, I would assume she came from as harsh an upbringing as she FORCED her daughter to have. Almost homeless, abusive hoesehold etc. Patterns that force you to make bad choices. No she came from a middle class normal family, sitting on a 400k photo. Letting her daughter have the homeless experience and no safety or stability in her formative years just for the fun of it.

[@lollipopcorndog]

The 90s was a different time

[@tamaralovett7820]

I love this show

[@mimicook2658]

in my opinion, the creators seem to make us love Mia and hate Helen. but in fact, Mia is a very controversial character and she does not have many positive qualities. she’s arrogant, angry and aggressive. Yes, Elena has negative traits in her character, but her motives can at least be understood. but to love Mia only because she is black and to hate Elena because she is white is somehow not logical.

[@aliciasmith327]

She hates Elena, because Elena assumed she was poor. Elena assumed that since she was a Black single mother, she was poor. Did you notice how Elena changed from passive to aggressive when she found out Mia was rich? Elena only accepted Mia, because she thought she was helping a poor single Black mother.

[@maimai.alfonzo]

Alicia Smith agree with your statement sis

[@aliciasmith327]

They were both mediocre mothers !

[@machelb510]

Typical white white woman calling a black woman names!

[@wolkevandenberghe5282]

It is a stereotype to call a black woman who stands up to her white opressor angry and aggressive.

[@nunyabusiness3516]

@@PhilJLF Yes, all the time. The funny part is white people don't need to be rich to feel entitled. That's why they love dogs more than people. They feel compelled to "own" something, and dogs are more obedient than people. That's why people starve while others spend millions on dogs. God made animals with the instinct to hunt. Humans want to break the animal's instinct to do what comes naturally to them and own them. Or make others who aren't like them into a pet-like object with no regard for how they really feel. NEWSFLASH: Your dog HATES you.
