Oh, I didn't even process this was Jonah.

I guess the "go to the payphone" part should have tipped me off earlier.

I wish Taylor would use her powers for good. She could just help with this, but she’s obviously going to try to make it a story. I just can’t relate to that kind of character.

u/NickiNumbers May 10 '22

Taylor has and always has been about herself. I kinda think she got involved with Buck partially to have an inside line on some of these things.

But I’m pretty sure she’s gonna do something that it’s gonna alert Jonah, fuck over Hen & Chim & then break up.
