Using death to resolve a stalled character arc is often a sign of creative surrender rather than narrative mastery. This analysis effectively highlights how modern television treats shock-induced closure as a convenient substitute for genuine thematic development.

WHAT DID THEY FIND?!? | Euphoria 3x7 'Rain or Shine' First Reaction!Added:
What is up everybody? Welcome back to Real Time. I'm Rob.
>> I'm Brace.
>> And I'm Z.
>> And today we are back with Euphoria.
This is season 3, episode 7, Rain or Shine. Last episode, you know, same old same old's happening.
Rue still caught in the middle of this this war between Lorie and Alamo, and things are only getting worse. Um, I feel like there's definitely going to be some kind of big blow up, like sooner rather than later. And she just kind of feels trapped. We got one second of her mom last episode, too. Uh, cuz she was just talking to her on the phone, kind of venting about her situation. Cassie quit Only Fans. She deleted her account uh because she has now gotten a role on LA Nights.
We'll see how that goes. But we know that um Cassie signed a contract for Maddie with like the Only Fans deal. And I think Maddie will be very very mad whenever she finds out that Cassie deleted the account. But yeah, there's only two episodes left in this season.
And I feel like with how everything's going right now, there's got to be some crazy stuff that that happens in these last two. And um I'm interested to see how they're going to finish off these story lines here. All right, guys. That is it before we do get into this episode.

Yo, >> I don't usually do blacks. Yeah, >> I don't want to get killed.
>> Leon.
>> Yeah, it is.
>> You got kids.
>> Did he relapse?
>> I don't know. What was he? I mean, >> he he was R's sponsor. So, >> yeah. What is he smoking though?
>> Drugs. It's out of a glass pipe.
>> Oh, is it?
>> [ __ ] you.
Uhoh.
>> [ __ ] you, [ __ ] You shut up.
>> Had like 500 ping right there. He had a pretty big delay. What was that?
>> This is where the champion comes.
>> I wonder is this like now?
>> Let me ask you. The world wants to know.
What does he eat?
>> [ __ ] and crack cocaine.
>> The future will be bright.
Hey, it's 15 9. Wonder where you are.
Call me.
>> Feel like the pandemic was probably really tough for this kind of thing.
>> Yeah, >> you hang in there. The future will be bright.
Oh, it's going to be bad.
>> Oh jeez, dude.
>> Every time he lost someone, >> he'd write down their name and the date.
>> That's so many people.
>> Yeah, that is terrible.
>> A reminder of how the story of addiction often ends.
I wish they were doing these kind of intros for every single episode.
>> I just wish the show was about this kind of stuff and not what it is about.
>> Who's still alive and kicking?
>> Yeah.
Still, >> I mean, whoever goes with him is dead.
>> And then things got terrible, which is good.
Okay.
>> You know, might sound crazy, but I think he revealed himself to me.
>> The burning bush.
>> Okay, you're totally welcome to stay here, but I just have a lot of writing to get done. So, >> she doesn't give a [ __ ] >> I don't know how much longer I can engage with your revelation.
>> Yeah, >> she she really hasn't had much of a story line either, man.
>> She doesn't do anything.
>> No.
>> Okay. I've had issues with your behavior, but I wouldn't call you evil.
Yeah. Well, you might not, but I think God would.
Well, >> I don't know if you know everything that she's done.
>> I've been working with Nazis.
>> Yep. There it is.
>> Yeah.
Well, like basically Nazis.
>> They are.
>> They definitely got a problem with Alamo. And I'm stuck in the middle of it. Okay. Well, maybe you need to lay down. Why?
You seem stressed.
>> That was I did not think she was going to say that.
>> Working with the Drug Enforcement Administration.
>> You working for the Drug Enforcement Administration is hilarious.
>> Well, [ __ ] it. I never should have said anything.
>> It's clear you've been using again. So, >> okay. Why the [ __ ] would you say that?
No, I'm not.
>> She doesn't even believe that she's working with the DEA.
>> [ __ ] you.
>> [ __ ] me. Yeah. [ __ ] you. You're sitting here judging me the whole [ __ ] time.
Jesus. No wonder your mom doesn't talk to you anymore.
>> Oh, damn. What a low blow.
>> Cassie.
Cassie is still in her old world.
>> Who is that? Cassie. I think so.
That's in there.
>> It's bro.
>> Whoa, whoa, whoa.
>> Who the [ __ ] is that?
>> Is it Nas >> a few days earlier?
>> Is Nate okay?
>> You know, Nate is a little anxious, but he's fine. I think he's ready to come home.
>> Nate's story line has been so bad. So, should we talk business?
>> Sure.
>> Unfortunately, >> what what about all of my my followers?
>> No, >> they don't want to deal with the complications of hiring a sex worker.
>> This view is awesome.
>> Do you mind calling your sister and letting her know, >> dude? up.
>> So, Cassie quit Only Fans, deleted it, she got this job, and now she doesn't have this job.
>> She got recast.
>> You have the audacity to misrepresent me and my firm. You send one of your [ __ ] porno people in to audition.
>> This lady has one of the craziest accents of all time.
>> Made a mistake I would never do.
>> I don't believe a [ __ ] word that's coming out of your mouth.
>> Thank you for the opportunity.
>> Everyone's just screwed now. And then Maddie found out Cassie deleted her account.
>> Beat her ass. Beat her ass, Maddie.
>> Get the [ __ ] up, CASSIE. GET THE [ __ ] UP.
>> Now sit.
>> Oh no.
>> I mean, just make another one, right?
>> Yeah. Or just show Maddie Nate's finger.
I >> feel like you're going to hit me. I >> [ __ ] want to.
M >> you're going to work. You're not going to [ __ ] You're not going to >> Your world is mine.
>> And I'm not your manager. I'm your [ __ ] boss, [ __ ] >> Oh my gosh.
>> Dylan Reed, >> you know who who I found out his father is?
>> Richard.
>> Richard Gear.
>> Is it actually? I saw the tweet. Yeah, I looked it up.
>> Interesting.
>> His only child.
>> Beautiful. What's your name?
>> It's just me, Cassie.
>> Oh yeah, blow that kiss.
>> She has her own tagline.
>> It's just me.
>> Oh yeah, blow that kiss.
>> 22768.
He's about to pull some [ __ ] when he's sleeping. You think they're going to bang?
>> Yeah, >> that's an ache and a thing.
>> Probably love it. Probably wonders where his finger is.
>> Oh my god.
>> Oh my god.
>> Again.
>> Jesus Christ, dude.
>> That was so ridiculous.
>> Was that an act?
>> Yeah.
What? Is she just going to post it?
>> This could [ __ ] mess up his job.
Maybe >> you might be the world's greatest [ __ ] >> No, you are.
>> Oh my god, the finger's in there.
>> Oh, what the [ __ ] >> Ew.
Did he not notice?
>> I stole his passcode. I felt them and then they left the room. I uploaded it.
So, he has no idea. It's everywhere.
>> Oh no.
>> Look at your [ __ ] subscribers.
>> Oh my god, that's so many.
Is that a [ __ ] finger?
>> Is it mess?
>> You can't put it back on now.
>> How tall are you?
>> 65.
>> Why? I need a [ __ ] reason why.
>> 6'5.
>> Yes.
>> He's so tall.
>> Arthur.
Oh, >> she's working her [ __ ] ass off.
>> What's he going to measure him?
This keeps farting.
>> I wasn't [ __ ] lying.
>> Yeah, that's unfortunate.
>> You're a weird thing to lie about.
>> She's working. She's working real hard.
>> Where's he going?
>> Nowhere.
>> I survived two years with Lori. Okay.
You don't think I can handle one more night? When this [ __ ] is done, I'm going >> like the way she's talking. Why >> makes me feel like she said that?
>> Yeah. It's like probably will be her last mission, but I don't know if that means she'll be out of it or just die.
Last mission on Earth.
>> So, you think this homestead >> is the promised land?
>> Is that where she was before with the people in episode one?
>> I believe so. She said Texas, right?
They were in Texas.
>> Something happens to my mom, I'm never going to forgive myself.
>> We'll go pick her up in the morning first thing.
Deal?
I think she's going. I mean, I feel like she kind of has to. Yeah.
>> And if you step back from this moment and look at the history of your life, >> your life in the history of the world, you'll see that there's never been anything but blessing.
>> I believe that.
>> I mean, I I just can't believe how positive he stays after all the [ __ ] he's seen.
>> Like that. He's a tough person, man.
>> Yeah. I have a feeling that this next episode of Euphoria is going to be the highest rated uh episode of television ever.
>> There's no full bank account that that will not happen.
>> I think even if it was the best episode ever, people would not rate it the best episode ever just because of the season.
>> Yeah.
>> You got this sniper.
Marsh Lynch.
>> What the [ __ ] is that about?
>> Oh, Elmo beat me up.
>> Oh, she is crazy.
>> It's not like I wanted to go back to Maurice, but I didn't really have a choice. Elmo had to think I was on his side.
>> Ruby Bennett, you're back.
>> Oh, holy [ __ ] Oh my god.
>> Holy [ __ ] man. I mean, he just spiked her like a football.
>> You have 72 hours to figure things out.
>> Why 72 hours?
>> Cuz that's how long it takes to die of a dehydration.
>> You're not going to give me any water?
>> I'm talking about Nate.
>> Where's Nate?
>> Oh, is he in a gasket?
>> Anybody here?
>> Oh, dude. This is one of my worst fears ever. He's underground >> buried alive. Is doing like a Mr. Beast challenge right now.
>> What is he doing this season?
>> Wasting his time. He got paid pretty good. That's crazy.
>> I'm I'm here. There's no sign of him.
>> Nate's family. I've been looking for him.
>> This is a throwback, huh? No, that's his brother.
>> Yeah.
>> Oh.
>> Oh [ __ ] Looks like the guy from freaking Big Time Rush. Cassie was instructed by Nas not to tell anyone unless she wanted Nate to die.
>> Low key, if it rains, it doesn't really rain much there, but it would kind of get a couple drops down here.
>> Yeah, that is insight.
>> Oh, that's so terrifying.
Oh, he's going to kick kick some dust in there.
He is Oh, no.
>> Oh, no.
Oh, shut the [ __ ] up. I swear to God if that thing goes down there.
>> He can't do anything about it either.
>> Is he tied up?
>> Yeah, I know. But like >> can't move around.
>> How would he cover the hole? I mean, put his hand there.
>> Dude, that thing would come down and fly and land on him. You'd have to [ __ ] rip its head off.
>> Bite it off. Honestly, that might be good for him. He can drink.
Scream. I will cut your tits off.
>> Not my tits.
>> It's like you've all lost your [ __ ] minds, you Cassie Rue.
>> R's always been crazy.
>> She was just here ranting about black cowboys and Nazis. Now she works for the Drug Enforcement Administration.
>> No, dude.
>> I don't like Maddie having that information. I don't think she would tell Alamo, but >> snake hears you.
>> No way.
>> That's a big ass snake.
>> Probably venomous.
>> Probably [ __ ] >> Who do you think would fight and win in there?
>> These two.
>> Yeah, >> I think Nate got it.
>> He can't move.
>> But he's ti his hands are tied.
>> He's [ __ ] He can't do anything.
>> Is the snake going for it?
A >> this makes me feel weird watching him.
>> Yeah, I don't really like this.
>> This is like the freaking clickers in Dune.
>> What's down here?
>> Who is that? Good boy. Want to go outside?
>> Help.
>> Help. Snake. Help.
>> Thank you, God.
I honestly would love it if like the snake came down and was like, "Hello, Nate.
>> I'm here to help."
>> Oh, and it's getting dark cuz it's covering the hole.
>> Oh my god.
>> Does that make me feel knocked out?
>> This is like multiple fears in one.
>> Oh, now you're stuck.
It can just bite the [ __ ] out of him.
>> I think that he's probably going to get killed by this snake.
>> I would imagine it's venomous.
>> Well, I know, but I just feel like like they're like, "Oh, we got him out. I got it done in time." But Oh, the snake killed him instead. Oh, sizing up its prey.
Yeah, he's probably cooked, right? Yeah.
>> Hey, that was kind of scary.
>> Yeah, it was >> the biggest [ __ ] losers in the show.
>> Lor's guys.
>> Yeah, they suck so bad.
>> Does what's your name suck, too?
>> Yeah.
>> F.
>> Yeah. I can't believe Nate just got cooked by a snake.
>> Here are your options.
You bring me a million dollars or we start slicing up your girl's face.
>> A mill.
>> Was that Dorough's pizza right there? I think that was David Dori's pizza place.
>> [ __ ] You brought FA here just to wipe Brand off your dad. That's the most beautiful thing that ever happened to me.
So even if you intended to hurt us, the business, the family, >> dude, FA doesn't even feel like a person, >> way treat her.
>> I mean, I'm on your side.
>> Unless you're lie, >> dude. She's just always in the worst situations possible. No.
>> Oh god, I don't like this.
>> She got in a huge fight with one of our friends.
>> Oh, what?
>> Nazis or something?
>> Nazis.
>> Do not the DEA. Yeah, >> Nazis and uh the DEA.
>> I don't know.
>> Oh, that's horrible.
>> Tell me all about this problem of yours.
Oh god, dude. Shit's getting crazy.
Is he about to go face off against Nas and them? Hey, look at >> a crossover I was expecting. I can't believe she brought up the DEA.
Oh, imagine putting sticky tape on an open wound. Sticky tape like it's not even covering it. Pretty >> sure that you did that once. You ran into that door.
cut your hand and then our friend Aaron wrapped duct tape around your hand.
>> Yeah, but there was something on before the duct tape. Probably like DP.
>> Plenty of girls out there.
>> This one's special.
>> A she really sticking her neck out there for also makes her It's her job. So I'll just save Nate, but he's dead.
>> Oh my gosh, he's right there. They're at this spot.
>> Yeah, cuz they're going to bring him up.
>> Yeah, dude. The snake is probably like eating him, too, right?
>> Yeah. Yeah, probably.
>> Can it >> like bite like biting it and [ __ ] Yeah, that's not how snakes eat though. They swallow [ __ ] whole.
Feel like Allan was about to shoot.
>> What the [ __ ] is he doing?
>> He's in a car. What's that going to do?
>> Didn't he step out? I thought you opened the door.
>> Was this a [ __ ] joke?
>> What's in there?
>> Oh. Oh, he was checking the wind, bro.
>> Dude, he just blew his chest open.
>> Easy on there.
>> What kind of bullet did he have in there? The cannonball.
>> I don't even want to know what that looks like.
>> Well, she's a [ __ ] traitor.
>> She's my friend. Which side are you on?
>> Whoa, dude. He's got a [ __ ] strip mine.
>> Wales.
>> Literally.
>> What? Why is he at right now? Four.
Looking for diamonds, bro.
>> That is quite literally a strip mine.
Where is that lead to?
>> I'll make you put down like a dog.
>> I'm getting hard just thinking about it.
Got to throw a line like that in there.
I don't think Fay would do that. He's so dead, man. I'm >> right here. I'm right here. Just I love you so much. I'm so sorry. I'm right here.
>> Parker is getting him out.
Like, this would take so long.
>> Are we going to get to see what he looks like? You think?
>> And imagine he'd just be kind of dead.
>> I don't know, dude. I feel like that snake. What if it's just he's like his whole body is inside the snake?
>> You think cuz I got a soft spot for you, I do all this [ __ ] for free.
>> You know what?
About time your ass wised up.
>> You have to do whatever he says now, Maddie. Like he owns you now. And Cassie, >> you think there's a snake in there?
>> Yeah. You think it could have crawled back up to the pipe?
>> I think getting if it could get back into the pipe, it could go up, but it wouldn't be able to make it up there.
>> What?
Me?
>> There it is.
No, it's it's a rattlesnake.
>> It just looks like it bit the [ __ ] out of him over and over.
>> Oh my god, I can't believe Nate's dead.
>> Nate Jacobs is dead. Damn, Jacob Allorian negotiated your contract.
>> Dude, look at him.
And now Alamo knows about the DEA, so I feel like he's playing everything differently.
>> Hey, just please get her out.
>> Who is it? What if it's what's his name?
Je the guy who killed the bird.
Bishop, >> it's f.
>> Let's get the money.
>> I like this.
>> She has a swastika [ __ ] stamp.
>> Is she baiting?
>> I feel like >> I think she might be tricking her. I hate this idea.
It's not the right key.
No, >> keys are like one of the loudest things.
>> I know.
>> Oh, this is the [ __ ] hell, man. This goes with the mine shaft, doesn't it?
>> I don't know. I think that was like kind of just in the wall.
>> Oh, okay.
Angel, why do they have it?
Why does he have it?
>> What the [ __ ] >> There's no money, babe.
>> You promised me I could have the bottom.
>> There's no money in here, babe.
>> Guys, >> you lied to me. I can't believe I trusted you when you lied. I didn't lie.
Can you please keep your whole life?
>> Oh my god. Just keep your [ __ ] voice down, please.
You can trust me. F. F. Don't Don't >> Well, that's it for this episode.
There's only one more left. So, exciting things on the horizon, I think. But obviously, the the big thing this episode, rest in peace, Nate Jacobs, gone but not forgotten. I mean, honestly, his storyline this season was horrible. It was really bad in my opinion. And I'm kind of glad that they killed him off because I don't think that there really was any need to to keep the character around for any longer, especially if they plan like doing more seasons. I know Sam Levenson has been like, "This isn't the final season. It's only season 3." But I don't really see a lot of these actors returning for a fourth season. Obviously confirmed Jacob Lordy will not be because Nate Jacobs is dead. I mean, his whole scene with like him being in the box and the snake showing up was pretty scary. Honestly, I I definitely did not like that. Like I said in the video, I being buried alive is one of my worst fears ever. It's just a horrifying thing to think about. Um, and I'm super claustrophobic.
Add a snake into the mix. Just pretty uh terrible from from all sides. But yeah, like I said, I'm I'm kind of glad that Nate's dead. I always thought he was an interesting character. He he wasn't ever really a good guy. Pretty bad in the first two seasons, but um he was always interesting and compelling, and I feel like he just kind of lost all of that this season. like everything that made him uh an interesting character just really wasn't here. Feel like he was just kind of a joke, like someone to laugh at this season. But I'm satisfied with the way that his story ended. And yeah, I'm glad that uh they're not afraid to to kill off a character like that. Yeah, I thought this episode was the best of the season. To be honest, I really enjoyed it. Um I thought it was really good.
Uh it was very action-packed. Um Alamo just completely blew Nas's uh chest open. Uh that was crazy. I did not think Alamo was going to get involved with that side of the show and now Maddie broke him or kind of spilled that Ru and the DA have been talking. So I think that Alamo has a little hint and I don't know. I feel like if that uh what's her name ID was in Wayne's safe. I feel like maybe Alamo and Lori are working together more than we think. Um because I feel like Alamo that was her girl at his strip club. She went to that place, but the the uh ID is in Wayne's uh safe. That doesn't really make any sense to me. Um, I'm sure that will there will be more connections with that. Maybe they're kind of just playing Ru. I have no clue, honestly. But Wayne is going to wake up here in a second and I feel like it's going to get really bad for Ru. Um, FA kind of just snitched there and I'm excited to see the finale and what's going to happen. Yeah, I agree. I think that was probably my favorite episode, too, especially towards the end. Like I said though, the beginning of this episode and last episode were really cool. I mean, I liked Alamo's story a lot better. I thought it was like more entertaining, but still, it it was just cool getting to look at Ali's like life and what led up to him kind of meeting Ru and and whatnot. Did feel a little bit out of place, especially cuz he like I think he's had like one scene this whole season so far, like him and Ru at the diner that one time. But still, I do like that. But I kind of wish they did that every single episode. But yeah, with the ending there, I uh I don't know, dude. It's It looks really really bad for Ru. And I I like that she's trying to like flip her life around and just be more religious, be a better person, but I just I don't really see how you get out of this. Like, he has a pistol right next to him. He's going to be pissed. Obviously, everyone's going to wake up from that scream, not just him. I think the whole house would wake up and we saw where they're at. Like, like they're in the middle of nowhere.
So, what if she runs through that tunnel in the wall?
>> She could do that. I just don't know where it goes. And like if she runs outside, they could get in a car and easily track her down. I don't know. I I think it's very tough. I don't think G's out there still, is he? Maybe he is. I don't know. Maybe he he'll snipe someone and come in clutch. But yeah, I uh I don't know. I feel like Fay, she she was doing the right thing for sure. But I just think like she said, she's so sick of this [ __ ] Like it always gets done wrong and uh she was supposed to kill Ru and I think she might play a part in that if that does happen. I don't I don't know if I see Ru dying though, especially after Nate's death like that. I I don't know. It feels a little sudden, but like I said, she has been putting herself in very bad situations. she hadn't out there with staying with Ali, but we will see. It should be a very action-packed finale.
But yeah, this was definitely a good one this season. All right, guys. That is it for this episode.
