Frankie Has Gotten Worse
6 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This episode was hard for me to watch, I had to actually turn it off, because I couldn't stomach Frankie treating her mom like garbage anymore. I did finish it a few days later, because I wanted to give a proper review. It got better after the whole wedding photos thing and I'm glad Frankie eventually apologized.

Frankie has always been a bit much at times. You have to put some of it on teenage hormones (we all were teens once), but when she goes too far and Sam just takes it, it makes it frustrating to watch. Frankie talks about human rights, world issues, etc. But lacks the empathy for her own mother a lot of the time, ex. The wedding photos. Like another reviewer said, Duke is the only kid bearable. Sam deserves better than how her selfish mother usually treats her and her two other children.
