Man, how is Jills picnic still being discussed? this must be, by my calculations, the 6969th time we discussed this in the thread
.
And what baffles me the most is the fact that every time we have this discussion people draw their focus to the wrong thing... Theres so many stupid/dumb/naive and essentially bad choices from Jill that episode and people choose to focus on the one choice that kinda makes sense? (doesnt mean i completely agree with Jill wanting the MC to drop everything hes doing just to go put on hes shining armor to take his highness
Blue Balls Queen (how I refer to Jill before episode 8 ) to a picnic, but I can understand it).
For me, the problem was never "the choice", it was everything around that:
1- This woman, who up until now was shown as smart and intelligent, falls for the WORSE blackmail attempt in history
.
2- Then she proceeds to spend a FULL WEEK, supposedly thinking things through and coming to her senses on how stupid this blackmail is....... Spoiler alert, this dumb and naive broad doesnt register this and falls completely for it
.
3- And then she goes on a beautiful date with MC where they get closer than ever... Just to drop the biggest nuclear bomb since WWII on the MCs head!
4- And then, to add insult to injury, she cockblocks us on the scenes later that night
...
Conclusion: Everything Jill does (directly or indirectly) in that episode achieves only 1 thing: Establish Jill as having no back bone and being easily manipulated. May her save file continue to Rest In Pieces since that dark time
