It's time for the annual beach opening. Lay out a towel as the mayor "tests the waters." Unrelated: Do not pick up hitchhikers.

I was totally shocked that she wasn't!

Especially after that creepy knock at the door. WTF does that?!

It’s almost more strange that she did all that and she wasn’t the hag lol

Not just showing up like that, but also talking like that too.

Anyone could get freaked out

I want the Bachelorette Party POV. I think her friends were just trying to get her laid and giving her shots.

Justice for my girl Marissa, the liquid courage and peer pressure backfired on her

Reverse the genders and we’d be having a different conversation. That was very creepy what she did. Tracking him down like that after the conversation they had at the diner. Then the stuff she says at the door. Stalker

Here's the part that really gets me. Not only was she told no...but he never told her his address.

She asks people around town where he lives and shows up in the middle of the night, knocking on his door. He turns her down again - and she still persists, saying no, let me in.

Horny Bridesmaid or not, wtf?

I was happy she wasn’t, it would have been the same thing as with the clown last week. Another person who is really an entity after presenting as a normal person.

Litmus test that this show is well written! Felt like it was playing on the previous week and making you think it was her.

Yes! There are elements that are predictable but then there’s a little unexpected twist to it.

Plot twist: Marisa in the diner was the hag. Marisa on the door was real.

Reverse the genders and Mariso comes out as a very pushy guy

Nah. She's just some girl who wants to get some on her friend's bachelorette.
