Finally... it's true, there is no rest for the wicked and finally got to get into the new release.
Ok... I am not a Chris fan nor am I a Chris hater. So, I shouldn't have been surprised with the shower scene. I didn't think Mr. Palmer would go back to showering to further the Chris/Anna path. What I had thought might happen would be Chris arrives way early and have a talk with Anna on the couch. My thoughts were on two levels, hot & heavy or mild & interesting. With the hot & heavy being Anna and Chris would be engaged in verbal teasing and Chris making a bold move and passionately kiss Anna and letting it go on to the point Chris gets a hand in her inner thigh--and be given a choice to have Anna stop it or go further. Mild & interesting, similar setting but Chris playful light touching Anna and teasing her through her cloths... still the shower scene works well and more surprising is how far it went.
But its Anna attitude change that really surprised me. In the beginning, Anna going back and forth with hope and redemption of David seemed plausible. But then with how events spun out of control Anna taking a hard tone with anger and determination throws me. It was my impression Anna would corrupt herself with her own desires and wants and use the events of David's cheating as an excuse to play around. So, Anna seems to be going back to old Anna. The one main point about Anna is she is more focused on "being married" as her firewall to this outside attention then it being "David" being the firewall.
Paths:
Well, it's pretty much as I had been talking about with Chris, friends with benefits. So that leaves perhaps two ways to get there and one inviable result. First path would be an accidental encounter like what occurred in the shower, but things go too far. The other Chris and Anna are together with the purpose of Chris consoling her over some rough emotional break down, and Chris takes advantage of a vulnerable Anna. The result being Anna would be lying in bed and suddenly calls Chris over for a booty call.
Hank--OK... Anna loathes him physically. That point was made clear. And Hank & Anna's lunch date threw out my thoughts how that relationship would unfold. I had it in my head Anna had some lingering "Daddy Issues" and was basically submissive that would allow Hank to get Anna. Since Anna is too willing to stand up to Hank and is repulsed by him that doesn't seem to be the case. I had though he would "groom" Anna using those daddy issues. Maybe Hank would be using more the blackmail tactics on Anna. Overall, the business lunch did well. A little too much discussing Anna's body to be a selling tool--but laying it on with appearance was pretty good. I don't see a pathway going forward with Hank and Anna that doesn't use blackmail as a tool. However, a pissed off Anna and the right situation might work without blackmail.

So what's next?
Wednesday evening and drinks with Jake and Kendra? Not what I'd be eagerly waiting for sav e to get past it. Though am not a Chris path hater, I am bored to tears with the Jake path. More so because it's a path that hasn't been well developed and I guess this evening out is to flesh it out. Already Anna has blocked that option off with how she keeps reminding herself about their positions.
Grant on Thursday... not a freaking clue how that will unfold because lack of background and context of their past relationship save rebellion against Anna's dad.
