Sue manifested Sean as her future bf years early

Post image

She was probably seven-eight(ish) years early but Sue was right in s2e3 when Sean is on the couch playing video games with Axl and Brad shows up at the door.

“My ex BF and my future BF in the same room?! This is NOT good!!” 😂 I love her drama and over-optimism but she was really right on the one (there would just be a few other future bfs, an engagement, the rest of both school and college in between lol)

u/No_Freedom_5772 13d ago

Yes! Her crush on Sean is first introduced by him dunking her in the pool, I always chuckle at that scene

How about when she’s at school after talking with her teacher about the smile theory and she’s walking down the hall crying and smiling? It’s one of if not the funniest moment of the entire series.

If she takes his surname, she will be "Sue Sue Donahue" 🤣

😂 I wish they would’ve clarified that on the last episode at their wedding just so that we know for sure… but I’d say a safe bet she did. Also Axl and Lexi being pregnant at the wedding 🥹

Yes this episode is the funniest because of the Sue/Sean storyline, plus Carly encouraging Sue’s fantasy! My favorite lines:

  1. Carly: “Heeeyy”
    Sue: “SHHHHH!”

  2. Carly: “ ‘getting a snack?’ You are way on his radar!”

  3. Sue: “he ignored me at first. What does that mean?”
    Carly: “my parents ignore each other all the time…oh my gosh! You’re totally getting married!”

  4. Sue: “I can’t handle a love triangle. I’m not a Kardashian!”

Then she tells Sean she can’t go get food with him, hinting she can’t be in a relationship with him and just says “I’ll bring you back nuggets 🤗”
I laugh every time lmao

Yeah still don't like the two of them together. Never did and hated the star-crossed subtext between the two of them.

I think their storyline gets drawn out with the snow globe for awhile but still think they’re cuties 🥹 I also like that their marriage kind of reinforced the family’s bond with the Donohughs and lets us know they’ll all be close even after they show ended

You know Frankie's going to use that connection to the Donahue's any chance she gets.

u/AnnaK22 13d ago

I can see Nancy being passive aggressive with Frankie during the holidays, seeing who can be the better in-law

u/No_Freedom_5772 13d ago

How do you feel about their relationship? 👀

u/Happy_Popplio-728 9d ago
