    i’m so glad that when tori is like “you’re not very good at keeping your promises” she immediately knows shes out of line and asks about him then when he leaves, takes a guilty sip and you can see in her eyes how guilty she actually feels. UGH LOVE TORI!!! i want more of her!!!

    One thing to note is that the big reason Charlie tried to make Nick's coming out "perfect" is because he's projecting his underlying trauma around being accidentally outed (and subsequently bullied for it) onto Nick. It is heavily implied that Charlie's household is emotionally neglectful (evidenced by how much more involved Tori is in emotionally supporting Charlie than his own parents), and because Charlie doesn't feel like he deserves to open up about his trauma with either his family and friends, Charlie is left with no outlet to process it properly. So he subconsciously attempts to "fix" his trauma by controlling Nick's "coming out" (which was inevitably futile). This is why Charlie is haunted by the specters of his bullies, following Nick's fight with his brother.
    Overall, Heartstopper S2 deals with the intersection of queer trauma and interpersonal dysfunction is an incredibly poignant way, and I love it so much.

    "I'm bisexual, actually" is said so often this season (not really a spoiler), that you could turn it into a drinking game.

    quick explanation abt the GSCE thing: it's a round of exams that you take for every subject you pick when you're 14 in the UK. You take them in year 11 so roughly 16 depending on the month you were born in. These exams can last hours long and take place in the sports hall usually so that the whole year group can take them all in rounds at once. There are multiple exams per subject like Maths, English Science or Language. After you do the exam, you get a grade from 1-9. Anything over a 4 is a pass, anything below means you really don't have much option after you leave school. Then college apps or a level stuff happen. The school give you organised revision and exam timetables

    I think what Tao meant is that it's unexpected (for him) that Nick isn't a two-dimensional, stereotypical rugby lad and popular boy.
    Tao has always assumed Nick's life to be perfect, and in S1 he has resented Charlie for protecting Nick so much because "god forbid Nick Nelson faces ONE challenge in his life" sorta thing.
    But now he's found out that he speaks another language AND that he's not close to his father (which is a delicate subject for Tao) so he's pretty taken aback.
    Bilingual boys raised by their single mothers and who are the closest people to Charlie... Tao and Nick are more similar than Tao would have thought. I think this is the first time that he sees Nick as something more than just "Charlie's rugby boyfriend".
    As sad as it is, they could bond over the absence of their father figures and their worry for and protectiveness over Charlie. It's not enough to form a solid friendship yet, but it's a start. And Tao was not expecting that lol
    Tao has always been hellbent on disliking Nick... and now he's starting to figure out that it's an impossible task :)

    • @slm_766
      @slm_766 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I believe that Tao and Nick begin bonding over their protectiveness of Charlie at the end of season 2 (in 2x8).
      And I believe that Nick begins to see the similarity between him and Tao at about the same time.

    • @slm_766
      @slm_766 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      I saw 2 slang definitions of 'jacked'; "overly muscled" and "looking like you're on speedy drugs"
      In the context of Nick's having an anxiety/panic attack whilie taking the math exam, I chose the latter.
      (Nick has long been weak in math (see 1x1)
      and the weekend before the test, he told Charlie he knew he was going to fail the math exam. Charlie offered to help him review, but the fight with Nick's brother brought about Charlie leaving, so he did not have a chance to help with the math.
      AND just before the math exam, he tried to warn Imogen away from Ben, but was unsuccessful; Imogen had known Ben since primary school and she says if he did something bad in the past, he's acting better 'now.' (No one knows how Ben treated Charlie, except Nick and Charlie.)
      So Nick was in bad shape psychologically/mentally when the test started.
      *****
      If you meant the other definition, there's a lot to explain about that.
      There are a couple of reasons why one might respond to how "buff" he looks in season 2 compared to season 1.
      There's the unfortunate pressure that led Kit Connor to the gym (in addition to overeating so he could look as big as the Nick in the books); he did the exercising wrong at first and had to go back and get educated in how to build the muscles properly (and I think he stopped overeating).
      But also between season 1 and season 2 Kit Connor had a growth spurt. He was the youngest cast member when he was hired (at 16). They started filming season 1 soon after he turned 17. At that time, he was 5'11" and was still pretty baby-faced.
      When they started filming season 2, he'd turned 18 and he was 6'1" and had filled out (even without the extra muscle) The baby face was gone (and it looks like the makeup people started toning down the freckles on his face (but not on his arms))

    yay! i absolutely love your reactions! i’m so glad ur picking up on charlie’s patterns. it’s so important and many reactors tend to not see them. with mental health it can be sorta invisible so it’s important to bring awareness to the patterns of what it looks like when something is off. charlie’s obsession with perfection, control and he has this pathological altruism. i think it’s important to remember charlie was outed, bullied and harassed, abused and assaulted by ben. we are slowly starting to peel the layers as to how much charlie was affected by all this and how he is coping with it all. charlie always seems to deeply care, uplift and support those around him but fails to do that for himself. he’s also facing whatever he’s going through alone bc his parents and friends don’t seem to pick up on his dysfunctional habits. charlie is stuck in a warped mindset that without any professional help could be on a very dangerous path :/

    yep, that whole thing you're saying is right on the money! most people i've seen react to the show hadn't even pick up on the fact that the lack of control is what sets charlie back on this path that he's obviously been on for a while.
    and as you said, this often happend when charlie has no control over certain situations. nick asking for popcorn at the cinema, charlie refusing due to harry & ben being present. or you can even wind it back to charlie not eating his bowl of cereal back at s1 ep1 after he breaks up with ben. im guessing you haven't seen the rest of the season so i'll leave it at that, everything will come together in ep8

    • @normaladjacent
      @normaladjacent 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Yeah, I was impressed that she picked up on those hints in season 1! There were some more subtle ones, too, like there are a few scenes in season 1 where Charlie is just MIA at lunch. There's one in episode 4 where Tao complains about Charlie ditching him and Isaac to get lunch with Nick, but then two seconds later we see Nick with his rugby friends (not Charlie). There's another scene where Nick gets lunch with Tara and Darcy and we see Harry asking Tao where Charlie is, and Tao deflects. And then of course at the end of the season we know he hides out in the art room a lot, and Tao and Nick again wrongly assume he's with one of them. We never actually see him eat anything while in the art room, and there's a scene in S1 episode 7 where he opens his lunchbox, stares at its contents, then closes it.

  • @Newest_editsjustbecause
    @Newest_editsjustbecause 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I think that what Tao meant by "unexpected" about Nick wasn't really his dad being French, and more that he was bilingual with Daddy issues like Tao. They have something in common and he didn't expect to see Nick as a multi dimensional human.

    GCSEs are exams taken in year 11 (when u are 15/16) they are quite important as for some colleges/sixth form you need certain grades in order to get it. if you fail maths and english you can retake, and also some unis look at these results as well as the results you get at the end of college/sixth form

      As a German I actually relate quite a bit as we have a simmilar system with our GCSE's being called ZAP (Year 11 is Year 10 here but the age is also 15/16) and you either qualify for sixth form (called upper level "Oberstufe") with certain grades or do an apprenticeship whose theoretic parts are taken at a vocational school ("Berufskolleg").

      The SAT are standardized generalized tests. Not every school covers the identical topics during the school year. The SATs assume that every school covers exactly the same stuff.
      I believe the GCSE's match the actual curriculum more closely.

    Ok -- I saw this on a trivia post:
    If you remember back to when Imogen first said "I'm an ally" --- of this group, only the girls were present to witness that.
    The continuity people and the director remembered that and you'll see that the girls laugh about Darcy imitating Imogen and calling her an ally.
    BUT none of the guys had been there, so they look puzzled.
    [For me, what makes this extra funny is that the entire cast, including the guys (except for Kit Connor), had been doing short videos in which they imitated Imogen's original statement. ]

    RE: the fight over the apple juice in the store:
    Tao and Elle both grabbed the bottle in the spirit of play. You can see that on their faces as they start the tug of war.
    Because of where Tao had grabbed the bottle originally, he "won".
    BUT he wasn't in it to 'win'; he was in it to play and really wanted her to have it.
    Elle says, "You won fair and square." (I think she might not have wanted him to patronize her, so she resisted taking the bottle.)
    Tao, being awkward and not knowing how to verbalize what he really was doing with the game -- just shoves it at her so she can have it.
    She looks confused; he runs away in unease.

    Nick replies, "Oh, my dad's French."
    Darcy asks, "Since when? "
    Nick (looking puzzled) says, "Since... his birth?"
    ( all (except the confused Nick) giggle )

    To answer two of your questions:
    GCSE’s are the exams we take in our last year of high school. When I was in year 11 we didn’t have a study hall though it’s different at each school, at mine we just did revision for each subject whilst in those specific classes.
    And yes trips abroad are common. I didn’t take a language subject but I did do history so the trip I could go on was to Auschwitz, although I wasn’t able to go.

      As I understand it, the GCSE's are not, as some Americans suggest, like our SAT's.
      They cover the subjects that the students have been studying in classes, over time.
      (Also, some Americans do not know what they mean by 'revision.'; The equivalent word is 'review'. In study hall, they are reviewing all their notes.

    Definitely agree with you that Charlie can't promise all the safety that he names.
    Unfortunately, Charlie, being over a year younger than Nick (and definitely younger than Tori), tends to be excessively sanguine. One of his favorite adjectives is Perfect.
    We can see Tori's eyes welling up because she KNOWS that Charlie is putting too much on his own shoulders and that things are not likely to be 'perfect.'

    After Tao explains his fear of being left behind and how important their friendship is to him,
    Elle says, "I don't want to stop being friends,"
    Elle's wording is very different.
    It leaves open the possibility that they can continue being friends while still having a romantic relationship.

    14:19 honestly I interpreted Charlie saying he wants to save nick as him trying to buffer the hate and stick up for nick, it’s hard to believe he would truly think it would be perfect for nick with his teammates and friends but I think Charlie means that nick will have someone who cares about him and his well being unlike what Charlie had when he came out (in a romantic way, he obviously Tao Elle and Isaac)

    GCSEs are exams you take at the end of year 11, which is equivalent to American 10th Grade. If you are in Year 10 or 11, you are in your GCSE years, so both Charlie and Nick are and Nick is taking his GCSE exams this year.
    The last 2 years of American high school are your A Levels when you are in the UK.

      Not getting this.
      I've read books 1-5, "This Winter," and "Nick and Charlie"
      Tori seems to like Nick in both the show and the books.
      Charlie's mom does not seem to like Nick in the series
      (Tori even comments on this in episode 7), until after the dinner at Nick's house in 2x7.
      Since Tori's attitude and Charlie's mom's attitude are different from each other -- how are their attitudes the same?

    When Elle plays with Tao's hair, as a flirtation, most reactors I've watched decide that the look on Tao's face shows he is "smitten." (And the animation sparks kinda back that up.)
    For some reason, though, I have read it as his looking "confused."

    In my opinion, Ben does not use girls as actual girlfriends; they are beards. (Since Imogen is a long-time friend of Nick's, Ben uses her.)
    AND he hates Nick because Nick has come between him and Charlie. He wants what Nick has -- or wants to take whatever Nick has away from him.

    39:14 I HAVE to bring this up because it's funny and I didn't catch it the first dozen times I watched this scene.
    The friend group is in a horizontal line. All the way to the left is Nick. All the way to the right are the 3 mischief makers (Tara, Sahar, and Darcy)/
    Tao and Elle are basically in the middle.
    Nick calls out "What's the plan?"
    Tao and Elle bring up the historical art museum.
    The scheme begins:
    Darcy says museums are boring.
    Tara says that she wants to explore.
    Elle argues that Renoir painted there.
    Tao says that it's an important part of art history.
    Sahar says why don't you 2 go, then.
    ***** *****
    Meanwhile, way in the back to the left, in the middle of this back and forth,
    Nick is smiling (almost laughing), realizing that Tao and Elle are being set up so they'll go on this type of date.
    When Tao and Elle leave to go to the museum, the friend group gathers into a circle
    and Nick 'accuses' them of knowing exactly what they were doing.

    It's kinda refreshing seeing a person of colour react to this, particularly the scene where Charlie tells his parents about Nick. Most of the other (read white) reactors I've seen typically have a very negative response to the scene. I'm just like, that's a very normal response from a parent and his dad was even a little playful.

    • @slm_766
      @slm_766 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Charlie didn't seem to think his dad was 'playful' in this scene.

      @calvinkhumalo9780 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@slm_766 I just took it as Charlie and Tori being "typical teenagers" embarrassed by their dad talking about sex. It seemed to me that he was trying to lighten up the mood a bit in that situation. I know 'Heartstopper' is technically a kids' show, but there's no way he's referring to sex as "hanky-panky" and was being serious in that moment.

    • @slm_766
      @slm_766 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@calvinkhumalo9780
      I was going by context: He'd just laid down the law that Nick was banned from sleepovers from now on. (Banned is not a light-hearted word)
      I was also going by facial expressions and tone of voice.
      He actually raised his voice
      as Charlie left the room.
      No smile.
      No laugh from Mom.
      Those were my clues.
      Hanky-panky is a very old fashioned term. It's an informal way of referring to unethical behavior (including fraud), and/or illicit sexual behavior.
      Its synonyms (in the sexual meaning) vary all the way from 'fooling around' up to "adultery."
      🤔 🤷
      PS: (In one of the books, the issue of whether or not the guys could have sleepovers was a serious topic. No humor at all.)

    Tao's reaction : Okay. Well, as long as you're both fine with it, and you're looking out for each other, I'm sure it'll be fine.

    So in 2x1, when the guys go INTO the closet so Nick can say that he came OUT of the closet to his mom the night before -- well I cracked up. (Yes, I'm a bit warped.)
    Time frame:
    So the sports day was the Friday before this, and Sunday was when they went to the beach. Sunday after the beach trip, Nick came out to his mom. This is about 9 am the following morning (Monday).
    (Kit Connor pointed out that we have to suspend disbelief because he was a year or so older on Monday than he was on Sunday.
    (He was 2 inches taller (went from 5'11" to 6'1") and he had filled out a lot. (The baby face of 1x3 is now gone))
    At first the difference jarred me, especially since I have re-binged this show MANY times -- but once I stay in season 2 for a while, I get used to the new Nick, no problem.

    Yes, I believe the 3 guys who called Nick and Charlie "Good Mates" do 'know' about Nick and Charlie.
    I think there is a convention that you can notice it, think it, but out of politeness you don't say it until (in this case) Nick overtly tells you.
    I think we've seen that 'rule' at work in season 1 on and off. And Nick and Charlie are being less circumspect now.

      Christian, Sai, and Otis definitely know. I think their plan was to show Nick they are safe people. Nick probably would have told them but Christian said good mates and it threw him off.
      In episode 1, Otis makes a point of being nice to Charlie while Christian and Sai check on Nick. Harry being Harry charges in and ruins everything.
      They try again in episode 3 where Christian puts his foot in his mouth throwing off any confidence Nick had. After Nick leaves Otis asks Christian why he said that. You can even see Otis look exasperated when Christian says it.
