![]() Of course, we have to bring it back to Rue. For the first time, maybe in the entire time that we've known the guy, he does the right thing-taking the USB with him as he turns his back on pops. Literally: kill your dad, or prevent him from doing what he did with Jules with anyone again. They want to be good.Īnd how about Nate, arguably the worst of them all? He waltzes into a confrontation with his dad with a USB in one hand and a gun in the other. In what might've been their final moments together, both Ashtray and Fez are fighting to be better-attempting to sacrifice oneself for the other. If you ask any of the cops in their town, both are technically bad people, we're guessing, in their eyes. But both brothers commit a crime every day. We can't bear to go into too much depth about Fezco's looming imprisonment, or Ashtray's likely death. His voice burns with the hope that both he and Rue will be good people after all of this-even though they're both unsure what this is. You have Elliot, one half of a terribly codependent relationship with Rue who almost led her to a fatal ending, finally acknowledging that he fucked up through a pretty damn emotional song.

Now, after a hell of an eight-week run, Season Two of Euphoria debuted its final episode on HBO this Sunday. “I guess it’s true," Rue says at one point. That you can do nearly everything right and still fail-something we see in the weeks before Rue's relapse in last season's finale. It's like what Ali keeps telling Rue during their diner conversation, back in 2020's special episode: "Believe in the poetry." Season One, at least by my estimation, should come with a tagline of something Rue's therapist taught her in a separate episode, that bad times still happen in the good ones. And if you want to, it's usually buried somewhere in the dialogue. Ranking the Best Needle Drops of 'Euphoria' S2.Javon Walton Is Just Trying to Pass Math Class.
