For the most part I like the way they're handling Jude's storyline. I just that he would have more screen time. He had that big moment( in the form of a small gesture but still, big for a 13 year old) and then nothing. They didn't even get a moment to ignore that it happened and be all awkward with each other. Then there was the second double date, which was entirely off camera. I felt like that was a bit of a cheat. If they're going to use these double dates as a way to "date" each other then I think we should see a bit of it. If that's not what it is, and they're ignoring what happened then that should be shown too. I understand there is a lot going on in the show, but then don't introduce something like that. At least not until you have time to fully explore it. Or maybe I thinking to much into it. I don't know... I agree, Jude's lack of screen time is saddening. But from the looks of the next episode's preview, it will have a big Jonnor moment <3 I can't wait for it.

As much as I was happy to see the storyline progress in the preview, I'm starting to think for Jude now isn't really a good time for him to have his best friend make a move on him. What he needs more than anything right now, with all that's going on with Callie, is a best friend. Connor is his only friend (or a least that's what it looks like) and it would suck if whatever happens in the next episode complicates that.

I certainly agree, you could see how torn up Jude is about Callie in the last episode even though he tries to put up a happy face for her. He will indeed need Connor to be there for him as a friend but I still can't help but feel happy that they are finally getting on with their story. I feel like Jude is the character with the least screen time.

He's having a hard time with the two people he is closest to, which has got to be tough. I wonder if there is some editing magic going on and the possible kiss that we see is the one Jude is talking about, and not a tent kiss, which people may be assuming. Like, Connor kisses Jude, then Connor flips out about the whole thing and then Jude says "You kissed me, remember?" Or maybe not and he is talking about the possible tent kiss. It's just a thought.

That's what he told the principal when Connor's dad was in the room, but it also wasn't clear that told the true story. Here's a clip after the scene the meeting in the office. Around 9 seconds Jude starts to say "but I didn't..." and Connor cuts him off. I assume (and it seemed like a lot of people assumed) that what Jude said wasn't the truth, and what he was going to say was that he didn't tell his mom that they had kissed in the tent.

Here's a Jonner sneak peak for Monday:
Should someone start a thread for Jude's storyline in "Other shows" or should we just keep it here?

Since this thread is active, I would prefer to keep it here, instead of having a whole new thread put together.
Edited to add: It is also more inclusive this way -- considering that Jude's foster parents are lesbians.

Am I the only one who LOVES Taylor (the girl Jude is talking with)? I quite enjoyed her snarky attitude during the movie episode -- but haven't seen the recent stuff yet.

Promo spot for next week's episode:

Post by alohaTHOR on Mar 3, 2015 5:15:09 GMT -5
I am just.... wondering what is going on... In the promo for the next episode, it clearly shows that Jude and Connor are with Taylor and Daria... Is Connor still with Daria or are Jude and Connor using them as covers? Either way I'd be unhappy...
On the other hand... is there going to be anymore Brallie moments? I miss Brallie already... And the bedroom scene Stef and Lena had during this last episode was too cute.

And the bedroom scene Stef and Lena had during this last episode was too cute. I think both Jude and Connor don't know exactly what's going on themselves. They are still pretty young, and Connor does have his homophobic dad to deal with. I don't see them being in a rush to be out and together. And who knows what's going to happen after the "tragedy" on the date next week. I'm not a huge Braillie person. I think it's more important for Callie to have the family she wants than to date Brandon. I think she needs the Fosters more than she needs Brandon to be her boyfriend. Also, Stef and Lena were cute in the bedroom scene. I usually find them annoying because they have this habit of being bad communicators and it drives me nuts.

Also, Stef and Lena were cute in the bedroom scene. I usually find them annoying because they have this habit of being bad communicators and it drives me nuts. It isn't that I want Connor and Jude to suddenly come out as a couple, I just don't like seeing them leading on those girls, well more so of Connor leading on Daria. I know it is confusing for both J and C but dating Daria isn't going to help anything. Maybe it will get C's father off his back but what will happen if he does start dating J? J will start to feel spiteful eventually if C never comes out and they have to keep hiding their relationship. And yeah, I totally agree with you. Callie certainly wants and needs the Fosters as a family more so than she needs Brandon as a boyfriend but I can't help that the romantic in me that keeps wanting them to be endgame. Currently, I am so disappointed in Brandon. I can't believe he sold his grandfather's baseball (even if it was to his own father)... and what I can't believe more is that Lou suggested him to do it. It was so insensitive to do so, no matter if Brandon liked sports or not. Am I the only one getting the feeling that the new principal might be after Lena?

It was so insensitive to do so, no matter if Brandon liked sports or not. Am I the only one getting the feeling that the new principal might be after Lena? Yeah, leading on the girls isn't cool, but Connor is probably afraid that if he breaks up with Daria his father would want him to stop hanging out with Jude again. The only reason he was okay with them together is because he believed Jude's story about the girls. Until Connor's dad is no longer a homophobic jerk I don't see Connor feeling safe enough not to have a beard. That doesn't make it okay, but he is 13 years old and afraid of his dad. It's a tough situation. I was upset when Lou suggested it too. My sister, on the other hand didn't think it was a big deal. "She wasn't forcing him, just making a suggestion). I got the same vibe from the new principal. It also felt like a conversation Lena should have been having with her wife and not her boss. That just goes to my whole problem with the communication between the two to them.

Callie definitely needs the family, more than specifically havehaving Brandon as her boyfriend. Every time that option is focused on, is when Callie believes that being adopted by Stef and Lena isn't a possibility for her. Each and everytime. That girls wants a family and to see her breakdown like that and still somehow want her to end up Brandon over being legally adopted by Stef and Lena?

Yes, I understand she wants the Fosters as family and that includes Brandon. I'm not saying that she should get adopted and date Brandon. I'm just saying that the romantic in me likes it when two people come together after being separated by their circumstances. I mean, you can't say that at least Brandon still doesn't have feelings for Callie. His little speech at the end of the episode about giving up anything for her? That was basically saying that he still loved her and giving her up was to make her happy. And the way things are going, her moving off to live with Robert. I think that's part of the screen writers way of somehow allowing Brallie to happen. I mean, like Lena said (maybe she didn't say this and I'm just crazy)... It doesn't take them adopting Callie to make them her family.

But Callie doesn't want to be adopted by Robert and his wife. She wants to be apart of Stef and Lena's family Folks seem to forget that important bit.

Well, that may be so, but currently it seems too late to change her circumstances. As Callie said, she can't just go to the judge and tell him she's changed her mind without giving him a reason, thus implicating her and Brandon along with Daphne's crime.
