Review: You - Season 2, Episode 4 "The Good, the Bad, & the Hendy"

All I want to do is binge-watch the shit out of this show. Let Netflix play episode after episode until it judgmentally questions if I'm "still watching" and I can be like, "YES! Let it roll." But alas, I have to stop after each episode and write my commentary because this is the life I have chosen. I guess I'm a read-recap girl, not a write-recap girl, but I made a commitment, and I'm sticking to it, dammit!

For a minute, I thought I lost all my notes from episode four, and I was like, Oh no, now I can't write about it. What a shame. But then I found them.

Very uninteresting side note: I keep seeing people talking about how good season two is, and I'm like, "I know! I want to watch them all back to back, but I can't! And also please don't spoil it for me!" And any time I see this type of post, 'bingeing' is spelled differently. I've always spelled it 'bingeing' because otherwise it looks like Bing-ing to me (the less popular version of Googling something). Anyway, sorry if I've been spelling it wrong, but also, who cares.

Episode four opens with a flashback. Will is watching his mom be verbally (and physically) abused by some dude. Turns out, he's been having lots of flashbacks in his dreams lately, and I'm hoping we'll get to see more of this because I want to know what has to happen to a person for him to turn out like Will/Joe.

We get a quick shot of someone wearing an "Organic AF" tee, and I can't help but feel sad for "AF" because I feel like it's officially overused and un-funny now.

Love is at Will's, and she notices his telescope, and she's like, "OMG, you can see my place from here!" Girl, you have no idea.

Forty texts Will because he's a needy little bugger, and Love begs him not to tell Forty that they're romantically involved because...he's a needy little bugger. Also, the fact that she hasn't told him yet probably goes against their whole "twinsparency" thing.

Later in the laundry room, we learn that Ellie discovered the spyware on her phone, but she thinks Delilah is the one who did it. As such, she's finding ways to trick Delilah into thinking she's being normal and innocent while she's actually sneaking around with Hendy the Sex Dungeon Owner. (Would it be better if she was hanging out with Will the Glass Cage Owner? Maybe a little bit?)

Not to fear! Will still has Hendy's jacktop and can therefore still keep tabs on her because Hendy's a dummy who still has iMessage linked up. Hendy and Ellie are still talking, and he invites her over for a film screening.

Next we find Will and The Riddler discussing loyalty at the glass cage. Will says that he will let The Riddler go if he can prove his loyalty, and The Riddler is like, "How the hell am I supposed to do that from this glass cage, bro?" What's really sad is that I actually believe The Riddler wouldn't tell on Will if he was set free. He just seems too damaged to stand up for himself or seek justice.

Will asks him to help disable Henderson's home security, and they come up with a plan. Will gets into the house, lifts some books and...secret passage. Seriously?

(Shoutout to "Friends" for being the most gif-able show ever.)

Will heads into the creepy room Forty mentioned and discovers a Roomba.

"Nothing's worse than a sex dungeon with dust bunnies."

He discovers a stack of polaroids of Hendy's victims. Will takes them and leaves them for Delilah because he feels like she deserves to break this story, not him. He then heads to brunch, flower in hand, to discover...

Love's friends just happened to show up. Sure.

It doesn't take long for them to come clean and be like, "LOL WE PLANNED IT!" Love was worried that Will would get all spooked and start researching everyone if he knew that he would be meeting her friends that day. So I guess she knows him better than we thought?

He already did research them and had his conversation topics pretty well picked out with the exception of his suggestion to visit a real "western medicine" doctor. The nerve.

Forty shows up and sees everyone and is insecure AF (still gonna use that) because he wasn't invited. He says that he knew that Love and Will were seeing each other and he is PISSED no one told him. Lucy puts him in his place, and this is a gal I can get on board with. I hope we see more of her.

Later, Delilah confides in her special friend about the photos she found on her doorstep. She can't do anything about them because she's one of the girls in the photos, and she'll lose her credibility. He offers to take them, and she hands them over...welllll, all but one.

Another uninteresting side note: I feel like I'm back in third grade with these transitions. I keep saying "later" or "back at the glass cage," and it's taking me back to my essay writing days, when I would try to come up with better ways of saying "first" or "secondly."

We get another flashback from Will's (well, Joe's) childhood. Mama leaves him at the grocery store so she can go bang some guy. That's what's happening, right? When they return home, that mean dude is yelling asking her where they've been, and that's when we learn that Will's (Joe's) father(?) taught him that pain will get the truth out of people.

Well this episode should be a doozy!

Will wakes up to the sound of Love giving Forty a haircut. He "totally forgives!" them and is sorry about his meltdown but is also determined to be a possessive, controlling douche of a twin and ruins all their plans. Probably for the best since Will is a psychopath.

Will finds Delilah trying to get Flaming Hot Cheetos ("stress food," as he calls it) out of the vending machine, and his spidey senses tell him that something is wrong. She explains that she wasn't able to do anything with the photos of Henderson because nothing in the pics identify him as the perpetrator. You can't really use it against him if it doesn't implicate him. Well, no shit.

Will tails Ellie to Henderson's house, where we learn that he calls Ellie "eyeballs?" Huh? Will's already sneaking around the house, and he hears Henderson tell Ellie she can't come in because he doesn't want her to be alone with him. He's worried it would make him look bad.

Eventually he gives in, invites her to have a seat, and makes her a roofie mocktail. Awww, how sweet.

Will sees him slip the roofie into her drink, causes a distraction, and then gives him a much larger dose to knock him out faster. As a result, Hendy wakes up in the sex dungeon!

Please know, I am not rooting for Will here. Or Hendy. I think they're both awful.

Will puts on a creepy ass mask of Henderson's face and is trying to coerce a confession out of him. Question: Even if he gets this confession on tape, won't it be unusable because he's under duress?

Well, turns out that doesn't matter because Hendy strikes a nerve, causing Will to get sloppy. Hendy gets loose, they struggle, and Hendy ends up dead.

Will is determined to make it look like a suicide, which would work fine until the Roomba gets going and mixes Will's nosebleed blood with Hendy's blood. He's like, "Whoops! Can't have another jar of urine scenario!" referencing that jar he left at Peach's, and now I'm scratching my head having a hard time remembering what ever came of that? Didn't the fuzz find the jar of urine? Was that ever resolved?

He cleans up his mess and throws all evidence into a trash bag. As he's unpacking the trash from his car, Delilah's special friend pulls him over for not using the crosswalk, and he's like, "Isn't it a little late to be taking out the trash?"

I'm sorry, but you have to be giving off major creeper vibes to make someone question the time of night you're taking the trash out. Seriously, this guy is perceptive as hell. He goes through the bag, ignores the bloody rags, and is super stoked about the headphones. He decides he'll keep them and forget about the whole not-using-the-crosswalk and also having-a-trashbag-full-of-bloody-rags thing.

Seriously.

Later, Will sets The Riddler free! I am so happy for him, and I sincerely hope that Gigi is real, even though I know she's probably not. I just want the best for him.

Love meets up with Forty to go to a film screening because that's all everyone in LA does, and he says he has a plus one. At this point, I am 100% convinced it's going to be The Riddler. For one thing, I thought Forty was gay, and also, I thought The Riddler might have changed his mind and decided to come back and fuck around with Fake Will.

Nope! It's Candace! But now her name is Amy.

(Did anyone else catch the glimpse between "Amy" and Love? Still convinced they know each other and this is all a trap to destroy Joe/Will.)
