Belly finally makes a decision regarding not only her romantic life but moving forward beyond that, as Laurel is pushed out of her comfort zone and Taylor is forced to admit something to Steven.
Laurel shows up to Cousins and seems ready to raise hell after Belly’s phone call.
As usual, Belly is torn between Conrad and Jeremiah, but now things are reaching a fever pitch. But, as she deals with boy drama, Taylor has her own love triangle issues, and Skye? Well, they are ready to make a move.
In an episode focused on Jeremiah’s point of view, we get to ask, “Will they or won’t they” for not only him and Belly but a few others.
As the kids continue to attempt to appeal to Aunt Julia, Laurel encounters a familiar face which makes going to New York worth it.
All the answers you could want regarding Conrad and Belly’s breakup are revealed, as well as what happened at Susannah’s funeral that had Belly make a fool of herself.
As it still is teased what happened at Susannah’s funeral and what led to Conrad and Belly’s relationship ending, it seems the Conklin kids and Laurel hold themselves accountable for their parts in family drama.
“The Summer I Turned Pretty” cuts to the chase in its season opener, regarding Susannah, which is a little jarring considering her role in the show but sets the tone for the season.
