Here's something weird:
Behind the scenes all the character names are shortened to two or three characters for the dialogue (i.e. Tommy is "tm", Bella is "isa", Maya is "my" and so on. But I just noticed Amelia is "jim". That's pretty fucking weird.
EDIT: Just realised, "jim" = "
Jill's
mom"...
The marriage should be a huge deal! I was little surprised it wasn't the brought up during the date night or breakfast. I think it's a bigger deal than the teacher/student situation and the Jill relationship. "I would like nothing more than to be in a relationship with you. What about your husband? What is the current status of your marriage?" That should be the first thing you should ask.
Why? Why should it be a huge deal?
Speaking solely as one who, once upon a time, was a young and horny male, the relationship status of an older woman meant nothing to me. Whether she was in one or not is not my concern. Whether she is into me or not, that is my concern. If she's not into me, nothing happens. If she is into me, nothing else matters. Her other relationships are her problems to contend with.
The very first time he kissed her (drunk at her house):
Bella: "This didn't happen."
Bella: "You're still drunk."
mc: "Are you...sure?"
Bella: "Fuckface... I'm a married woman."
mc: "Oh..."
For him to have pushed beyond that means he knew, he just didn't care.
When he pushes things further and
Bella Slowly Succumbs (tm), the mc pretty much assumed she was married and assumed she was cheating. He says:
"I remember feeling bad about kissing a married woman."
"I figured she felt the same since she was being unfaithful to her husband..."
But his actions (if you choose the path), indicate he doesn't feel bad, he doesn't give a fuck at all. She tries to push him away many times, and he just doesn't fucking stop. Of course he's not raping her (we know from her own thoughts it's what she wanted/needed), but in this "#MeeToo" era, she said "no", may as well just lock the mc up already.
So ultimately, he wasn't interested in talking about it, he just wanted to fuck her.
The marriage will have to come up during Jill and Bella's confrontation in (hopefully) the next episode, there's no way Jill won't mention it. The only question to me is if MC will be present during that scene or not. DPC might try to just make it a scene between Jill and Bella and keep MC in the dark until the next EP or whatever.
It's honestly one of my most awaited scenes, if their little argument during EP6 was anything to go by, it will be quite a fun catfight to watch, even more so now that Jill has finally "found her voice"

I often wonder what is the deal with Bella and Jill. We still don't know why they are friends. Bella's words:
Bella: "Jill is...special...to me."
That she hesitates at the word "special", what the fuck does that mean? Why is Bella so protective of Jill, because Jill is retarded?
The fact that Jill never seems concerned about Bella, or mentions that Bella's had a hard time in the past or anything like that to the mc, tells me Jill doesn't really know Bella's past that well. But Bella probably knows Jill's past better, possibly their association is through Lana...
Does Jill even know the husband's situation (dead, MIA, divorced, tied up in the locked room)? For such a busybody, it's strange that she just assumes Bella is fine (and just laughs at her attitude towards men rather than wondering what it stems from):
Jill: "So, you kind of like Fuckface?"
Bella: "No. I just really hate Tybalt."
Jill: "Hahaha! Never change, Bella."
What Jill should have said was:
Jill: "Bella. This incessant hostility towards men isn't healthy."
Jill: "Is there something we need to discuss, something you haven't told me?"
Bella: "No Jill, I'm fine. Please just drop it."
Jill: "Bella, you know I can't do that."
Jill: "I've taken the liberty to book you in to see a shrink, or at least the next best thing."
Jill: "We'll go see Jade and Stephen in about 30 minutes."
Bella: "Fuck!"
