Lowkey so meta that you had an abrupt change in filming location for the episode that suddenly completely diverged from the central plot……. Anyways completely agree with all ur takes especially the señorita awesome comparison I literally was thinking of that exact same scene !! I overall did enjoy this ep and liked their relationship arc, but my one gripe was that I felt like the writing for scott and kip’s banter was so weak compared to shane and ilya (who have such a beautiful balance in the show of teasing but still being sincerely sweet without it becoming too saccharine). The very brief flashes of Scott being chirped by them in games was the most fun and exciting part of the ep for me which just highlighted how much better I feel like their characters are written - although maybe that’s just my personal preference! Another thing was, and this is absolutely not a critique of the relationship or the characters individual choices (I totally agree with all you said about it’s ok for someone to be closeted and equally ok for someone else to not want to participate in it) but I don’t think this ep did a great job of communicating why scott and kip’s situation was SO untenable. Like for Scott, he’s seemingly so terrified of being outed that he can’t even browse an art gallery with another man without panicking, but he’s also confident to brazenly flirt with a random smoothie worker in front of another staff member and invite the guy to sit in his family seats at a game ??? And for Kip, I get that the closeted relationship isolated him from his friends/family but other than that he seemed overall very content and fine with being private about things/spending lots of time in the apartment. So I don’t get why, when Scott was able to accept the friend at the gala knowing about them, it was never even considered to just tell Kip’s dad who seems great and totally capable of understanding the importance of secrecy in this situation? I'm sooo fucking locked in on this show tho I've rewatched the first two eps multiple times haha and as much as I appreciated the role of this ep in contextualising Shane and Ilya's situation, I really cannot wait to get back to them bc their chemistry is ELECTRIFYINGGGGG~

btw this episode is following the story of the 1st book in the series, game changer! heated rivalry is book 2. all the books kind of have some overlap. i'm curious to see if/how the other books might get incorporated in season 2!

There are actually ZERO out hockey players in the NHL. Only ONE person has ever come out and it was after he retired. Hockey is truly one of the whitest, most heterosexual sports. That's why it's such a big deal that Shane is even half Asian. Even in 2025, I think like 80-90% of the players are white and NO ONE is openly gay.

hard agree re: the skip banter 😭 it felt so corny and i hated all the serial killer talk. they are sweet together but nothing compares to hollanov for me.

The funniest thing about this show to me is that I've read so many books about gay Hockey players and there are such similar series but somehow I had never come across this one before that has now somehow become mainstream.

This episode!!! So sad but beautiful. Most people enjoy this episode, but there's certainly plenty who didn't like this episode because they aren't Shane and Ilya and their story is more wholesome, but I just can't understand those people because this episode gutted meeee. Scott and Kip's maturity and open communication when contrasted with Shane and Ilya is sooo good.

Yeah I think they're cute and I respect why they're needed for the story but the dialogue was not doing it for me, it was kinda of cringy
