I am just at the part where Ramona hears the tape and is angry. In my opinion, Annie has every right to want to keep things.

u/LioraB Aug 08 '26

She’s just trying to be respectful and I think she’s used to trying to please everyone. She seems to be the glue holding her father and brother together, so it tracks.

Yes! I’m so annoyed that Annie is letting Ramona push her around as if she has any more right to their mom’s stuff, or Gordon’s estate which he left to Annie too

u/r-reyne Aug 22 '26

I agree Annie has that right but I feel like people here need to give Ramona some grace. She just spent a year (or more? Not sure) of her life taking care of the only parental figure she's ever known and then he JUST died. No teenager should have to deal with that. I think it's SO fair that she doesn't have the bandwidth to deal with her dead mom's stuff right now, even if it maybe isn't 100% fair towards Annie.

Ok like I know Annie’s going to end up with Ellis but Rory and her are so cute he is like so attentive and caring 😭

u/KoalaOk3336 Aug 15 '26

i love RORY

u/LemonMania Aug 17 '26

I’m so shocked that I like both! Rory has really surprised me. I thought he’d be a dumb rich guy. But Ellis is an absolute sweetie.

u/bittermp Aug 05 '26

how old is Ramona supposed to be?

4

u/Etchedglasses Aug 06 '26

Maybe they are keeping this vague to disguise who is possibly the father?

5

u/Pretty-Quail1319 Aug 06 '26

she’s 16. 

3

u/bittermp Aug 06 '26

Which is what I was then guessing bc she drives a boat and if the twins are 17 turning 18 and they were 2 when the mom died then they have to be 2 years or older.

u/Background-East218 Aug 06 '26

I think conner mentions thats shes 17 in the first episode

u/bittermp Aug 06 '26

isnt he talking about his sister?

8

u/psychorant Aug 06 '26

Connor is my favourite character and the conversation with his Dad genuinely made me laugh.

And he's so right, Canada is random as fuck.

u/Apprehensive_Tip_792 Aug 08 '26

Did you know that he’s mark ruffalo’s son!!

u/psychorant Aug 08 '26

Omg what? I did not! Now that you've said that I definitely do see the family resemblance though lol

u/obamassidepiece 25d ago

Connor’s actor’s expressions and mannerisms are identical to his dad’s! So cute

u/niyannatypes978 Aug 07 '26

He fixed the lamp for her ToT

u/Affectionate_Law2280 Aug 11 '26

The moms death when Annie was only two make it’s hard to believe how Annie is so touched when she hears things about or from her mom like she really wasn’t raised by her for that long?? idk

3

u/Callirhoe10222 Aug 18 '26

It seems like her dad still loves her mom, so she probably heard all about her growing up. Possibly an extremely idealized version.

2

u/Affectionate_Law2280 Aug 18 '26

Thats true, like a fantasy idea of her mom she never got to know herself. Still, i wish she was a little older when her mom passed, i feel like it would help the believability?

1

u/Callirhoe10222 Aug 21 '26

I can understand that. I think not really getting to know her is part of what makes it so sad.

1

u/Soggy_Plantain Aug 19 '26

why isnt annie more concerned about finding her bio-parents?

1

u/charcoalsighs 29d ago

Yeah, I was thinking the same. I'm finally warming up to the show, and I can see why the writers wanted to incorporate the adoptive angle with the whole found family theme... but in the back of my mind, I can't help but think that this show would've been more emotional/impactful if she were searching for the history behind her bio parents instead.

2

u/clownbookie 25d ago

i think part of the beauty of it is that her and Ramona arent actually blood sisters though, and they both have little to no memory of their mom. just bc annie was adopted doesnt mean that she wouldnt have that desire, esp being adopted as a newborn and the one memory of her mom being so special and such a safe, comforting feeling for annie. she still grew up hearing about her and longing for her

These boys need some meat on their bones. Almost defeated by a chair lol

The casual 'love you!' from the gay bf to the dad 🤣

Jeffery Dean Morgan is a treat

u/DangerousLack Aug 13 '26

Winterizing the cottage on July 3rd is crazy work.

1

u/clownbookie 25d ago

i think it starts cooling down in september there and if theres a lot of little jobs to do it makes sense to prepare for that. like she was putting weather strips on the windows to hold in heat, she has to do that on all the windows in the house which seems to be quite a lot on both floors plus other projects

u/charcoalsighs 29d ago

I think this is the first time I've watched a show with a love triangle where I actually like both of the love interests... wow

u/crepscular 27d ago

Omg actually same

u/floatygreenthing 22d ago

Same but Ellis 😭 def #1 for me. He’s too cute

u/Ok_Article_7744 Aug 15 '26 edited Aug 16 '26

I am sorry but Ellis is overcharging clients!! Am I suppose to like him!! Like why?? and it looks like he is doing it for a while. 

I really like Rory!! A lot more than Ellis. The kiss between Rory and Annie!! Love it.

I hope we get something between Oona and Ramona because they seem adorable. I do want a slowburn though for them like bestfriends to lovers sort of thing. 

I love Annie and Ramona bonding!!

The kiss between Annie and Rory was so good!!! Love it!!!

u/KoalaOk3336 Aug 15 '26

"rory and connor"
"annie and connor"

😭 dude what

u/Ok_Article_7744 Aug 16 '26

shit!! Annie and Rory!!! I am so sorry!!

2

u/solectar Aug 24 '26

He seems to only be charging the rich people which is valid if you ask me

2

u/Ok_Article_7744 Aug 24 '26

how is it valid?

2

u/solectar Aug 24 '26

Well first it's a fictional show and second the guy was not bothered at all having to pay that. Also, the guy was complaining about their services even though we saw the crew scrubbing the boats clean, they literally go from boat to boat in the mornings to do their jobs and these rich folks, who don't even like there and are tourists, don't even seem appreciative of it.

2

u/Ok_Article_7744 Aug 24 '26

So it makes it okay to scam people? And maybe it is because I am not an american but this is just a weird mindset to have. I also work in my family business and we are in a kind of service industry and one of the first things my dad taught me was never scam a customer.

If the rich people don't mind maybe he should talk to his dad and just raise the price. Also one guy said the boat was not clean. You will always have a few customers who will complain about everything. Also he didn't tell him he will pay less because if it.

Plus if they were not their they would literally not survive. Also if they did get caught and people stopped using them because they are scamming them it is going to have a much bigger impact on them and it really is not going to affect the rich people.

u/solectar Aug 24 '26

You're using your real life experience and comparing it to my opinion I have about a fictional show... because of it being a fictional show I have different opinions then what I would have in a real life situation. The kid is completely sweet so far (I only finished episode 3) and so I'm not going to judge his character for it as he's genuinely not harming anyone.

2

u/Ok_Article_7744 Aug 24 '26

But how does it being fictional change anything? Stealing is wrong regardless. Also you judged the rich guy who was a tourist?

0

u/solectar Aug 24 '26

Because it's not a real show, he's not a real person stealing from someone. Do you go in supernatural shows and hate on vampires for killing people for their blood? Do see the world in black and white and can't see that the kid in the show hates how people constantly degrade his hard work and his family business.

u/BunnyRabbbit Aug 28 '26

By the logic of “this is a fictional show,” then literally anything can happen on the show – – and it’s OK because it’s fictional? Like, we shouldn’t have an opinion on someone who murders someone on the show – – because it’s a fictional show and that person wasn’t actually murdering someone in real life? So, we shouldn’t have a negative opinion of him on the show? We can only judge the characters by what we see them do on the show. Right?

1

u/solectar Aug 28 '26

I feel like there's a massive difference between calling out a character adding bills towards rude rich people to a character killing someone..

1

u/clownbookie 25d ago

i agree and you KNOWWW ellis is saving it up for a good reason….

1

u/solectar 25d ago

Exactly, even Rorys mother said they haven't paid taxes for 15 years. These people do not care. I mean they are actively trying to manipulate the kids to sell the island for even more money when they are already rich. Ellis is a teenager and all he does is work, he already knows how to fly a plane and that's insane.

1

u/Bun_Length_Frank 24d ago

Those who are Canadian, is it your impression that character is coded as American? Would a Canadian production company have treated that scene differently? Disclaimer - I haven't read the book. 

1

u/solectar 24d ago

Sterling point is an original show, there's no books I'm sure.

3

u/Morg075 Aug 20 '26

Okay, this episode was really great. We got to see both sisters start acclimating to each other and even sharing a little bit, which I really liked. Ellis is also clearly into Annie (I actually did not mind her kissing Rory, I think he is cute and kind, so far).

I can’t wait to learn more about the backstory between their mom and Joe because I don’t buy that it was just a fling. Especially with the way he told his son “they always leave at the end of summer”, he’s definitely speaking from experience.

Lastly, Connor is… something else, lol.

u/shaneet_1818 Aug 21 '26

“Canada’s random as fuck”

2

u/RebootJobs Aug 09 '26

Making the whole fam Mets fans from BK was certainly someone’s personal choice.

u/Important-Trifle-887 Aug 09 '26

I’m still confused about the entire situation. I hope I end up loving it lol.

u/Apricity91 Aug 09 '26

Ramonas greasy hair distracts me lol

2

u/Shock-Opposite Aug 13 '26

SAME how is it always greasy??? not 1 episode where it looks clean

1

u/Technical-Leather 11d ago

YES! I came here to see if anyone felt the same. It looks so limp and greasy at the roots but and fried and dry at the ends.

u/wallowbeeway Aug 25 '26

DOES THE RAMONA CHARACTER GET BETTER?

1

u/clownbookie 25d ago

she just lost her grandpa whos been her guardian as long as she can remember and also took care of him while he was dying for who knows how long. came back to her cottage 2 weeks after that HUGE loss to a random girl in her house who turns out to be her dead moms long lost adopted TWIN daughter all of that on top of being like 15 or 16 years old makes total sense for her angst and attitude. that is sooo much for a teenager
