Summer is a fantastic actress... Seeing Margo struggling with herself because she wants to be herself, and she's mad the world can't understand her smartness, beauty and strengh, was heartbreaking.
So in a nutshell she acts like a bitch so whenever someone says it it’s completely justified and then rendered mute as she shows you better not fuck with me.
This was the most powerful scene for me as well. I've struggled with anger since I was about 11 (23 now) and I still struggle. Always and still am (to an extent) angry at myself because like Margo I know who I am. I feel for her because even when I tried not to show it I've always had pride in myself; I am a king of fuck ups, a slut, who does she think she is. This scene helps me feel more in power and more in control, even when rejected by the world. On a more positive note anyone else agree that we should follow Margo's lead, instead of all the male associated things like "grow some balls" should be like "grow a pair of tits". "Put on your training bra, and let do this, bitches." More female empowerment.
Wow, it was so unexpected to see her struggling with feeling worthless. I would not have thought she'd ever doubt herself, especially not in being Eliot's best friend. So now we know what's underneath all that hard, glossy armor. Also that vein on her forehead - real emotions being played here
Everyone suffers from imposter syndrome. Famously, a guy with imposter syndrome told Neil Gaiman (a guy in the room with history book level famous people, so also suffering) that "I just went where they sent me." Neil Armstrong, first man to walk on moon. Margo recognizes her imposter syndrome, hates it and what it does to her, and turns that rage into her armor. Keep that which you (falsely) (irrationally) suspect will disappoint you away before it actually has a chance to disappoint you.
When I started watching this show, I NEVER expected to relate to Margo in any way. But this fucking scene. I have watched this scene over and over...not even the whole episode, just this damn scene. And every SINGLE time it still makes me sob. Because "you had the audacity to grow up...apologies for the fucking surprise, dad" and "he was the one who told me I could be anything...but he didn't tell you the world makes you choose" and "he saw what he raised: a woman he couldn't control" and "get angry? I am angry every second. Every second my eyes are open." I related to that so hard it literally causes me physical pain.
"I am angry because I know who I am, not who I pretend to be" is what gets me along with "I'm still a King, King of manipulation, King of pointless rage, King of I can't do this, King of he was right, and King of I fuck up everything eventually." Oh and basically the whole 4-5 minute scene. I ball hard with "The only thing I got right, was how to be your best friend" because it hits home. It's the only thing I learned to do right as well.
This whole conversation feels like a poem. It's beautiful and sad. The raw emotion in her voice... It really feels like she was a bottle of emotion and it was long since time the bottle was full. I cried and rewatched this scene many times now and it still hits just as hard. I'm not a strong women, I don't feel pretty or smart. But goddamn everytime I show my real self, say what I'm actually thinking, not letting myself get walked on like I always have... I have no right. I'm a bitch. It's not me, I'm the quiet and shy one who never fights back. But it is the real me, I just finally let someone see it. Always pretending to be someone I'm not... someone who doesn't cause trouble when trouble has to be had. But it hurts cause I know it's not me. But when I am me people say that's fake and they know me. And then they don't like I how when I used to roll like a ball when pushed, I'm a wall. And then it's a problem... People grow up and they get tried of the crap...
It’s like a monologue. If I was ever an actor and had to prepare something to perform this would be it. The range, the depth, the emotion. Summer and this show is incredible.
I love this scene. She goes from being pretty much a random character to an amazing character. I love the character development. Now if women want to see strong women in tv this is it. This is how it is done. Beautiful scene.
My favorite scene in the entire series. I (and a lot of women) can really relate. Men if you have a smart, self sufficient lady...one that can pay her own bills, works hard and has her own goals in life....just remember and realize that you are very lucky to have such a woman in you're life. Don't take her for granted and don't expect her to follow your lead
Such an amazing episode! The overall message, the soundtrack, the metaphor with the sand spirits, Summer's acting, Eliot's appearances... i'm so impressed
@@amun.isaiah2640 my guess is that they represent female emotion and the patriarchal oppression that comes with it, they're imprisoned and treated as a danger even though they meant to help and are healthy figures I feel like the villagers telling the women to not feel emotions, even when justified, was very reminding of how our society always tells women that they're too emotional
this got me Emotional, and then watching the "storm coming" sequence after made me cry the same way the beginning of wonder woman made me cry. nerdy girl-power tears. hail king margo!
The iron that goes through the hottest fire makes the strongest steel. Margo is the character who's been forged into strongest steel. But the forging is always painful.
he was the one who told me i could be anything. that line tore me up. yes its great to tell your daughters they can be anything but not when you tell them and not do a damn thing to fight patriarchy

"Get angry? I am angry every second...every second my eyes are open, because I know what I am. Not what I pretend to be." Fucks me up every time.
Same.

give that woman an Emmy now

"He called me his little princess" ... "I'm a king, not a goddamn princess. A king."
“That’s what Eliot would say, and you’re not Eliot are you. You’re me and we know.” Resonates with me on a deep level 😢 hail king Margot lol
Summer Bishil's delivery was AMAZING with that line, ugh fucks me up.

PREACH.

If this woman dont get an Emmy for this scene, i dunno what will.
Emmy. This came from a TV show.
She was my favorite character on this show, amazing acting in this scene.
Me too! I adore how cuss words just fly outta her mouth
Margo and Quentin tore my heart out with every scene they were in this season.
they really did.
This whole conversation feels like a poem. It's beautiful and sad. The raw emotion in her voice... It really feels like she was a bottle of emotion and it was long since time the bottle was full.

@@R989D I was thinking the exact same thing
Agreed. It was very Shakespearean.
I love this scene. She goes from being pretty much a random character to an amazing character. I love the character development. Now if women want to see strong women in tv this is it. This is how it is done. Beautiful scene.
She has always been an amazing character? wtf are you talking about?
she has literally never once been a random character
One of my favorite Margo scenes in the show.
One of my favorite TVscenes of all time. Summer is out there delivering acting lessons.
My favorite scene in the entire series. I (and a lot of women) can really relate. Men if you have a smart, self sufficient lady...one that can pay her own bills, works hard and has her own goals in life....just remember and realize that you are very lucky to have such a woman in you're life. Don't take her for granted and don't expect her to follow your lead
I'm watching this again after quite some time and I'm still crying
Never in my life I related to Margo on such a deep level, especially about being someone's best friend 😢
It feels so bad to see her hurt like this
This was brilliant, so poignant. She is incredible, both the character and the actress. She carried the weight of this scene so beautifully.
years later and this is still one of my favorite scenes from a show ever. The feelings it invokes are still SO strong.
Full body goosebumps with that scream! 😱 omg....
My High King Margo 💜
Such an amazing episode! The overall message, the soundtrack, the metaphor with the sand spirits, Summer's acting, Eliot's appearances... i'm so impressed
what’s the metaphor?
@@amun.isaiah2640 my guess is that they represent female emotion and the patriarchal oppression that comes with it, they're imprisoned and treated as a danger even though they meant to help and are healthy figures
I feel like the villagers telling the women to not feel emotions, even when justified, was very reminding of how our society always tells women that they're too emotional
I finished this episode an hour ago and it was fucking amazing! I deadass almost cried during this scene
I'm still crying
Does anybody else identify with every word she says? It hurts but I think I'm ready to admit it
So hard. It’s heartbreaking but oddly comforting to know that there are other people who resonate with every word of this scene.
This scene is everything.
Best actress on this show!
This made me feel things. Deep. Down inside. Holy shit. Summer. You’re unbelievable.
Okay but seriously this scene is so good I made a d&d character based on it. Or really based on Margo.
It's so painful in my heart to watch her like this
This scene gives me chills every time I watch it.
She's so brilliant. Her acting, her voice (1:48 my heart breaks every time). Thank you Summer to bring life to my Hero.
this got me Emotional, and then watching the "storm coming" sequence after made me cry the same way the beginning of wonder woman made me cry. nerdy girl-power tears. hail king margo!
easily 1 of the best scenes that have ever been on the series
(& not just because this whole episode was eliot looking the hottest he's ever been lol)
fucking loved this ep. i love a lot of the characters so much but margo is def my ult fav. and ofc love the actress!!
Margo is my personal hero
I just realized she was Azula in the live-action Last Airbender movie
Right? It's kind of a shame, clearly she would have acted the hell out of Azula's breakdown.
I love it because at the begginin' she`s different. Like hiding her real personality.
Ohhhh. My. Heart. 💔💔💔😭😭😭😭😭
most powerful scene....she gets us
This is amazing
This was like amazing! one of the best scenes in the whole series
The iron that goes through the hottest fire makes the strongest steel. Margo is the character who's been forged into strongest steel. But the forging is always painful.
Fav part of this episode! Not many shows I really enjoy but this is one of top 3 shows I like.
I am sorry I am watching this so much right now. I need this right now.
Can you post the scene of Julia and Quentin towards the end talking?
I like the background music of this sequence. Where can I download it?
Margo has an aries lilith or Mars I’m sure of it.
this scene but set to mad woman
Wind and sand what?
Even mountains get worn down by wind and sand and they are technically stronger than her.
Wind and sand reduce mountains into rumble. Are you stronger than a mountain?
It is a good tv show, pity showrunners decide to cut it off
he was the one who told me i could be anything. that line tore me up. yes its great to tell your daughters they can be anything but not when you tell them and not do a damn thing to fight patriarchy
