I understood, Darryl was already in and TJ got into the second spot, Val is relating it to him(suppousedly).
Didn't mean that Ethan knew about Val's history, just that it's the kind of story that might work on her a bit if he stumbled on it. But it's unlikely and don't see it working on Val anyway, she's not as gullible as Zach. Most likely the meeting was just "stop seeing MC or you'll get hurt", which is a little boring but works like you say.
Still think Daryll will probably get MC out of the suspension and allowed to race, even if you punched Zach and don't get on. Daryll wants to win the race in front of scouts and to help with scholarships, MC is his best chance of doing that.
Do you think Daryll would be able to ditch TJ for the tournament?
I think Daryll really wants to win, impressing scouts and getting a scholarship are his priority. He's not stupid, even if they hate each other I think he knows MC is the other best male runner, he'd ditch TJ for that. Nothing personal, but it's what's best for him and TJ doesn't seem good enough to have a future in athletics anyway.
He would be a little torn between his friend and the guy he knows is faster, and gives the team the best odds.
If TJ is a good friend then I think he'd understand, he can't hold Darryl back from his shot at success because of ego. It would hurt, but this is Daryll's chance, he'd support that if they're real friends.
I agree. I was thinking that too. This phone call should at least be for if you're not in relationship, but Ethan did threaten Val. If you are in a relationship, she should tell you in person.
Agree, if you have a relationship it's better if it comes out during the date.
or maybe,
It also crossed my mind that Val might call to cancel the emo party. But if we get the invitation, that means we’re in a relationship with her (officially or not), so calling to cancel would be pretty lame. For me, it’s something related to the tournament. I’ll keep standing by the fact that Ethan didn’t do anything wrong to Val.
It would be really interesting if Layla had a reaction like that when Zach and MC return to school from suspension.
I've never done a run where I didn't help Erynn with the blackmail, never have the heart to not help. Does the stuff between Ethan and Val change if you're not involved with the blackmail plot? That might need a different phone call?
the logic makes sense to me about multiple variations, but I can hardly think of 5 either. Maybe the Zach punch not punch is one of them, potentially the track stuff too depending if it's Layla or Tori? Those could come up in the discussion.
Val is trying to convince us to choose Layla when we choose Tori for the race, or vice versa.
Well I guess it's more Val dating or not dating. If she has met Ethan or not.
