pit babe ep 2 thoughts

i immediately went back to rewatch ep 1 for the third time because i just love it 👉🏼👈🏼

i love that we didn't keep the pace of ep 1 but instead got more into establishing all the moving parts (even though i'm not sure i've pieced them together yet)

- pavel's acting is insane. his microexpressions, his voice, his EYES. my attention is 100% on him whenever he's on screen

- his fond exasperation when it comes to charlie is SO endearing. he's already fallen for him so hard. i'm bracing myself for the inevitable downfall but that preview........ my HEART

- that flashback was painful as hell but now we know tony's babe's abusive foster dad so this isn't just about a conglomerate wanting power in the field but about tony wanting to take revenge (?) on babe or wanting to get him back "home" so. this situation is fucked

- i've already adopted jeff. if anything happens to him, i'm gonna burn it all down. i'm 👁️ re: his tension with alan (mainly bc of the intro and preview) and i'm here for it. they could be cute-cute

- not sure what charlie and jeff are plotting (not sure they fully know either lmao) but i'm not convinced charlie is working for tony anymore. or maybe he is, but not as his end-goal. i feel like he might be playing both sides for a yet unknown goal

- couldn't care less about way and the youtubers when it comes to their romantic entanglements, i'll be honest. the yts are kinda annoying and way........... hm.

- way got friendzoned by babe so many times 😭 but he's too much so i find it hilarious. he was giving me off vibes throughout the ep but i don't think he's also a mole/villain... he might just end up figuring out the truth but, since babe seems to have picked up on his jealousy, babe won't take him seriously and it could lead to a falling out.

- the manhandling scene with babe/charlie was so........... i don't mind that we didn't get an nc scene because that alone was so hot.

- ALSO THE RACING INSTRUCTION SCENE. PAVEL, THE MAN THAT YOU ARE. if i were charlie, i'd also be all 👁️👄👁️ while he was speaking passionately like that. loved the little bits of encouragement also.

- idk if charlie is pretending to be a rookie to keep up his act or if he's actually new to racing but i'm anticipating his development either way. the racing bits are done pretty well so. i find it exciting.

- THE FIGHTIIIIIING. kim might've just let him win to scope out his skills but that was so hype. and babe was sooooo proud. give me more fight club stuff!!!!!!!!

- i'm torn between feeling bad for winner and wanting to see him get stomped into the ground 282863 more times. he's pathetic and kim putting him in his place was kinda hot lol

- this show is so filled with potential betrayals that, even if they do get a sponsor at least somewhat on tony's level, i worry that that's also gonna be part of a bigger, evil plan lol

- (tony's assistant is so hot. he already caught my eye while he was spying on babe in ep 1 but now it's cemented - he's gorgeous.)

- the preview had me GAGGED. charlie on the team? babe breaking his no-kissing-rule (and kickstarting the process of breaking his own heart) in such a tender way? insane

- super cute bloopers again! love that for us

tl;dr next friday can't come soon enough. i'm genuinely interested in the plot. who would've fucking thought

(and again for good measure: pavel is AMAZING. i love charlie but i'll be rooting for babe until the end. he's just so earnest.)

#i feel like i missed something that seemed important to me while i watched but. this is already long enough #i'm so glad i actually enjoy the show aside from the eye candy lol #pit babe the series #pit babe #thai bl
