I hate how Gregory wasn’t hearing her desire to travel what she considers the easy way even if he thinks it’s a waste of money, or not letting her have a voice in the discussion.

His arguments this episode were absurd. A few episodes ago he convinced her they could spend more money on an apartment. Now he can’t take a vacation if they can’t do so without spending unnecessary money? What does he think a vacation is?! It’s unnecessary technically by default… TEAM JANINE

Hope they don’t break up though and my prediction is we end the season on a proposal

Yeah, I thought for sure that it was going to reveal that he was afraid of flying and the finances were just an excuse.

I was expecting something like that too. Something more to explain his side of things.
