Tell Me Lies season 2 episode 4 successfully dives into the characters psyches in a compelling way (Review)

As a seasoned viewer of “Tell Me Lies,” I must say that episode 4 of season 2 was a rollercoaster ride through the minds of these troubled characters. It’s like being stuck in a toxic relationship yourself, watching their every move and feeling their pain.

We’ve now passed the midway mark in season 2 of “Tell Me Lies“. While no major or particularly exciting events transpired, this installment proved intriguing as it delved deeper into the minds of several key characters. Here’s our review for episode 4 of “Tell Me Lies“, entitled “Just Stable Children.” SPOILER ALERT:

Let’s begin by discussing Lucy’s situation. The show delves into one aspect of the impact and fallout from her toxic relationship with Stephen. In their time together, Lucy became accustomed to being deceived and reconciliation through aggressive intimacy. This is something she has yet to fully overcome. Leaving a relationship like that can undoubtedly influence future relationships, and it seems to be doing so with Leo.

As a gamer, let me set the scene: The game begins with us in a comfortable spot, trading playful banter over a friendly game of pool. We’ve chosen to abstain for now, a wise move considering my partner Lucy. When the moment arrives for us to advance, things take an unexpected turn. Leo reaches for protection, and I start questioning if this means he’s seeing other women, given that I thought I was on birth control pills.

When he declines her advances, she assumes he’s completely engrossed in her, believing he lacks the availability to be with other women, though if possible, he would. In a pattern familiar with Stephen, she attempts to engage in confrontational sex with Leo. However, he resists and becomes annoyed by her misinterpretation of his intentions and manipulation of his words. This scene underscores the lingering impact of Stephen on Lucy and the repercussions of their harmful relationship.

It’s clear she isn’t to blame. However, following her apology, Lucy and Leo manage to reconcile. He even shares some background about his unpredictable childhood, hinting at a challenging upbringing, although the specifics aren’t disclosed yet. His anger seems rooted in this past. As I mentioned in my reviews from the beginning, I’m still struggling to understand their appeal as a couple. But if Lucy is content, then I suppose that makes me content too.

Regarding Bree’s tendency to react in a particular manner due to her challenging past, it’s not hard to understand that this is the case for her. Her history has undoubtedly been difficult, and it significantly influences how she perceives others, herself, and responds accordingly. However, there are signs that she’s gradually becoming more assertive, recognizing the importance of expressing herself better. This newfound confidence seems to be stemming from her relationship with Professor Oliver.

Apart from trying to understand her teacher Marianne better, Bree finds her genuinely nice. What will become of this bond? An unexpected disclosure happens when Bree confesses her relationship with Oliver to Lucy. Lucy remains understanding and might feel remorseful due to her past involvement with Evan, contributing to their split. So…

It’s intriguing that Oliver repeatedly asks Bree to keep their relationship a secret, considering the title of the Hulu series is Tell Me Lies. Unsurprisingly, she tells him she hasn’t revealed anything. However, it should be noted that she has confided in Lucy by this point. It’s clear when characters constantly emphasize certain actions, trouble is likely on the horizon. Indeed, there may be repercussions in Bree and Oliver’s future due to her deceit.

Ultimately, we delve into the mind of a seemingly narcissistic Stephen, who may be experiencing some self-reflection or guilt. However, it might just be the pressures of the LSATs. This man is enigmatic, after all. In one of their classes, their professor asks them to contemplate their most regrettable actions. For Stephen, memories of Macy and the car accident surface. Even though he doesn’t acknowledge this to himself, his feelings are clearly visible on his face.

For much of episode 4 in season 2 of “Tell Me Lies”, Stephen is worried sick about an upcoming exam that will shape his future. His anxiety peaks when he and Diana take the test, culminating in a full-blown panic attack. Upon hospitalization, it’s disclosed that he has a fractured rib, which might have occurred prior to this incident and was previously undetected. This fracture could potentially be due to a significant impact, such as a car crash.

It’s clear that the information Lucy shared about Stephen and Macy in the third episode has piqued Diana’s curiosity, causing her to doubt its veracity. As she delves into her boyfriend’s digital records, Diana discovers pictures of Macy. Intriguingly, instead of confronting Stephen or sharing her findings, she chooses to delete the images.

I was yelling at my screen, no!! This was a bad move, girl. I’m sorry but this guy does not deserve protecting. And now there’s evidence that can be used against him wiped away. Oh, Diana. What an interesting twist! Overall, I enjoyed Tell Me Lies season 2 episode 4 as it got into the psyche of the characters, which effects the decisions they make. And some of these decisions will have consequences in future episodes, I’m sure. Episode grade level: B.
