We suppose the only difference is that most of us spent our teenage years dancing while high on hormones, lust and dreams of Freshers’ Week, while Rue’s sad relapse back into addiction seems to be the driving force of her plot this season of Euphoria.Īddiction issues aside, we’d like to take this moment to shout out to Rue’s bedroom which is adorned with posters of Rihanna’s Rated R and M.I.A.’s Matangi albums – we stan a delinquent teen with taste.
Sadly, there’s no follow-up to last week’s rimming scene, and the “San Junipero”-esque magic between Cal and Derek ends prematurely as the very next morning Cal receives a call from his girlfriend which will reroute his life forever – yep, she’s pregnant.Īlso hitting the dancefloor (at least in her mind) is Rue, who we see enjoying a ‘dance like nobody’s watching’ moment in her bedroom that will surely resonate with most viewers’ inner teen. After the boys consume multiple tequila shots, they hit the dance floor and eventually share a tender kiss. Things culminate on the night of their high school graduation when Derek suggests they take a trip to the local gay bar because he knew they’d get served there without an ID.
