    I wish Melanie had more time. What I liked about her was how she had a convinces about right and wrong. And when she finally saw how her parents truly saw her that was enough for her to separate from them and really think about what something of a life. I was glad that at least she got to keep her brother Jack. Plus, her words:
    "I got you a job. A REAL job...that is if you don't mind washing dishes."

      She was really likeable. She was working hard to build an honest living and truly cared for Terry. But she could not turn her back on her family and that was used to pull her back to a life of crime. It was very satisfying to see her win a small victory by giving Jack a second chance, too bad he wasted it in the comics.

      Terry’s big mistake was not telling Dana, his friends, and his mom “Mister Wayne gave me more hours, it’s late nights, but it helps with the bills and it’s setting me up for a career.”
      That being said, Melanie or Chelsea would be a better fit for Terry. Chelsea because of “The Last Resort”, where unlike Dana, she both sees and appreciates Terry’s heroic side. Melanie, because despite everything that’s happened, she would understand (and would probably piece together) all the weird hours and last minute complications involved with Bruce.

    What I love about the relationship between Terry and Melanie is that Terry has to carry a lot of guilt and burden silently to help Melanie. He can’t reveal his identity to her, and as a result, she feels abandoned by him. Terry can only really help her as Batman, so he can’t be in a romantic relationship with her without revealing his identity as Batman. It’s a great relationship that helps to flush out many of the flaws to being a masked hero.

      I agree. I'm glad she still had her brother & they went straight. It was different from what they had, but not necessarily a worse 1. Also like her brother said, he was the best dishwasher in juvi, he would probably be the best dishwasher at the restaurant too, that might get them both tips, & both working with their pay together they can get a slightly better apartment.

    Man I miss this show. Batman Beyond felt like nearly every episode had a strong emotion to it and a lesson with it. We've all met a girl like Melanie. Not really friends but not really in a relationship, just living in the moment. Like the chemistry just clicked and was wholesome. Always back and forth but in a passive way and how things would fall apart passively and come together just as it was. I was with that with a certain girl who I couldn't just say no to whenever she would want to come back. It felt like it would never end, when she told me she didn't want to be that way again. But few weeks later she would change her mind as we would always be in the loop for year. It wasn't until I had to finally say no to her as I was going to my bus for track when she wanted to try things again. Arietta

    Division of colors portrays the division of thoughts about her action, her life and the choices she is making

    I love how they did her hair and I just like how she grew up as a criminal and Terry has a record, going to a juvenile detention center, but had a second chance to change. Looked like she was doing the same as an waitress at a restaurant, even involving her sibling

    Melanie should've completely walked out and go with Terry when she was given the choice before queen bugged her at the elevator, could've had a great life being a hero and not have so many bad moments.

      I was just thinking that, Even crazier this kind of thing happened in my life. Amazing how relatable and deep those shows back then end up being now that we’re grown.
