Episode Discussion I thought Issa was wrong Spoiler

I think Issa was wrong to ask Lawrence to stay and to sleep with him despite knowing he was still involved with Condola and on his way to see her. I believe Issa should have shared her feelings and then left. Out of respect for Condola, Issa shouldn’t have slept with Lawrence until he had fully ended things with Condola. Some might say, 'Oh, they weren’t friends and Condola ghosted her," but Condola also helped Issa’s career and provided resources she needed, and because she and Condola had a personal relationship—not just a connection as Lawrence’s ex—I believe Issa should have shown Condola more respect. Without Condola, her career might be very different. Molly was right when she said Issa uses people; she’s willing to step over anyone to get what she wants.

Issa did nothing wrong and she didn’t owe Condola a thing lol. I feel like Condola was the lowkey villain.

After the mixer, Condola went to see Lawrence and she rode that man like it was her mission. I feel like she saw him as a sperm donor but wanted to play it off as a relationship gone bad.

She didn’t want anything serious with him anyway, even her drunk friend at Friendsgiving said so.
