And Mona was also under the same delusion after that scene at the pool because Quinn allowed them both to believe it (which is her being the true manipulator in all of this), and it was because of what happened in Ep 5 that Mona learned what it really entailed. So this is all really the fault of whoever is spreading those rumours, which may or not be Quinn.Yes, the pool scene. And it's clear that the information didn't sink in for her, but it's also clear in the scene from episode 6 that Maya was under a delusion that all she had to do was join the HOT's. This isn't the HOT's fault, or Quinn's. It's Maya's delusion. And all of this is irrelevant anyway.
Maya joined the HOT's under false pretenses. We are not shown the scene where Maya approaches Sage and Quinn and ask to pledge the HOT's, but I think I'm on safe ground asserting that she did not say that she thought the HOT's were all sluts and she only wanted to pledge because she heard a rumor that they provided free tuition. In fact later dialogue seems to affirm this. Not stating her intensions and joining under false pretenses is dishonest, it is a lie, and this from the girl who demands 100% honesty.
And with this post I'm done splitting hairs on this. I'm not discussing it any further as it's absolutely clear to anyone.
The MC doesn't tell the DIKs that he's only doing this to help Derek and to get himself his own room to live in. He didn't state his intentions either and decided to join under supposed "false pretenses", but I guess that's OK, right? Seems like there's a bit of a double standard here.
