I am loving your reactions… The problem with them talking is Shane always tries to talk about family because that is a safe topic for him but that topic is what makes Ilya close up because his family is horrible. They treat him terribly which is why he is afraid to open up. You see him at the end of that last scene just staring into space and looking miserable…. As for the Olympics they were in Russia and the Russian athletes were all watched and it was common knowledge they were being spied on so he couldn’t talk to him in public without arousing suspicion. (Still to this day LGBTQ is basically illegal) Ilya said not now and Shane continued so he ended having to be mean to get him to leave to protect Shane as well. Several times previously Shane had told Ilya not now and Ilya respected that but when Ilya asked for the same Shane didn’t stop he just continued. This is Shane’s autism coming into play but Ilya has internal family battles and it was just too much. And yes, Sasha was the coach’s son that Ilya mentioned in episode 1 that he was with previously. I love Ilya.. my boy has a lot of trauma he is dealing with… give him some time…. ❤️

Well said Beth! Ilya is often misunderstood in ep 2. Even I agree he's pretty outwardly toxic in Vegas. That's what makes his character growth so freaking special 💚 I have to say that the vegas bathroom scene ties with the Shane/Rose scene in ep 5 as my 2 favourites of the entire show.

Svetlana is his childhood friend and FWB. She's one of many GOATs in this show. Thr guy in the Russia bathroom is Sasha, Ilya's hookup from Russia - the one he spoke to Shane about in ep 1. The actor who plays Carter Vaughn (Scott's team mate and friend) is also in that Walter boys show. Ilya is completely disassociating at the gala in Russia, while his dad openly critisizes him to the Russian minister (who's also Svetlanas dad and Russian hockey legend). Remember in ep 1 when his dad chastised him and told him to listen and not to speak at the draft day? - now he just has to stand there silently and cop crap without being able to defend himself. Highly recommend going back to watch the first intimate scene in this episode in your own time. There's so much there. I get how it can be really hard to film yourself watching this type of content. Sometimes it's easier to dismiss it or become easily bored when you can't sit in it. Kudos to you and other reactors for doing that- I wouldn't be able to 😊. But dismissing it doesn't give it the respect it deserves. There's a lot being said without words. There's the super romantic music written especially for this scene, the intimate way they face each other, the camera close ups focused on their facial reactions most of the time, the placement of hands, intimate kissing, Ilya's constant checking in with Shane for consent and to make sure he's comfortable - then his surprise when Shane orgasms 'without help', the intimacy of the cuddle after the act, Shane's quiet smile after Ilya gets up to shower, the forehead kiss. It's very different to their first hook up which was filmed and edited to make the viewer feel as awkward as the characters feel - wide angles exposing themselves fully, no music, very little talking etc. The intimacy coordinator said in an interview that the the two leads actually created a secret language between themselves to make sure their connection shined on screen. This early ep 2 scene shows that.

I wish you would actually pay more attention during the sex scenes. I understand that people can be squeamish about them, but they’re really not anything more than we see heterosexual couples represented in some of the shows we watch. And they’re not gratuitous like a Game of Thrones. There is a lot of storytelling that happens in them and if you’re not paying attention, or your eye rolling, or not watching the actual scene because you are trying to talk to the camera to cover your uncomfortable moments, you’re missing it. Hudson said an interview that 30% of the episodes are sex scenes—but 75% of the story happens within those scenes. So if you’re not paying attention, you’re missing the nuance of the relationship. And you said that you’re looking for a relationship. It’s there you just have to watch for it. Jacob doesn’t spoon feed information to his audience. In the show, every bit of dialogue matters, every moment of every scene matters, every music choice matters. The story isn’t always in what’s being said it’s in what’s being shown. That’s what makes it so incredible.
