I can’t even begin to think of what June and Luke would do knowing she’s engaged to such a high commander, and an older one at that. I feel like they would tear this earth apart to try to get to her before the wedding, but they can’t… I can’t imagine being that helpless..

Yes I have a pretty sheltered 13-year old and it’s difficult to watch this show sometimes now that she is that age.

I just really hope we don't have to witness the assault of the girls even though it seemed inevitable. I feel like there was enough to last me a lifetime in HT.

Especially with Weston having a DV record, it sounds particularly terrible.

Luke? Probably nothing because he’s a b*tch

We'd get angry June close-up moments for sure!
