Spoilers below. <\/em><\/p>\nThe latest episode of And Just Like That\u2026<\/em> hits a little different today, knowing that the series is coming to an end in a week\u2019s time. It\u2019s possible that, at the time the show was being written or filmed, the team didn\u2019t know that this would be the final season. But it\u2019s unfortunate that the penultimate episode of an iconic franchise that just can\u2019t die has to be this bland. At just half an hour, it makes me wonder whether events were split between this and next week\u2019s finale, rather than crammed into one supersized episode. But once the credits began rolling on season 3, episode 11, I caught myself saying aloud, \u201cThat\u2019s it?\u201d<\/p>\nAfter Carrie finally gets together with her neighbor and writing partner Duncan in the previous episode, he\u2019s nowhere to be found. The show jumps ahead to Thanksgiving, as Carrie is ordering pies at her favorite bakery for the dinner Miranda is hosting. The errand has brought her back to her old neighborhood, which leads her to stroll down her old street and run into Lisette, the stylish jewelry designer who now lives in Carrie\u2019s old apartment. Carrie jokes that she wants her place back, but the closest she\u2019ll get to moving in again (for now) is an invite to a party with Lisette and her friends.<\/p>\n\n\nCourtesy HBO Max<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nCarrie\u2019s future is a little up in the air at this point. That\u2019s clear in the semi-autobiographical historical novel she hands in. Her publisher loves it, but believes it\u2019s missing a final chapter. Carrie\u2019s protagonist, \u201cthe woman,\u201d ends the story alone after the love of her life dies. That might be normal in 2025, but it would\u2019ve been a tragedy in 1846, when the story is set. So now Carrie must write an epilogue that \u201cmakes the reader feel good\u201d and reflects her own journey, too. Will she end the series with a new love interest or continue to fly solo? Will she stay in her new apartment, move back, or find a new place that\u2019s just right?<\/p>\n
Anthony also finds himself facing a big question. While shopping at Bergdorf\u2019s, Giuseppe gets down on one knee and proposes in the dressing room. Anthony tearfully says yes. It seems like happily ever after for the bread-baking duo, but Anthony later reveals that he\u2019s having second thoughts. He only accepted the proposal because he can\u2019t say no to Giuseppe. Given their age gap, Anthony doesn\u2019t know if he\u2019s supposed to \u201cmarry him or mommy him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Speaking of moms, Miranda is excited to host Thanksgiving, and gets a little too eager and invites Mia, the mother of Brady\u2019s child (played by Ella Stiller, Ben Stiller\u2019s daughter). After last week\u2019s disastrous encounter at the hair salon, it\u2019s surprising Miranda still wants to forge a relationship with this woman\u2014and Brady is understandably angry at her for inviting Mia behind his back.<\/p>\n
Seema is also fretting about her Thanksgiving plans. She\u2019s set to meet Adam\u2019s sister\u2014a big step in their relationship\u2014on the holiday, although Adam tries to downplay the event. (He doesn\u2019t celebrate Thanksgiving.) Meanwhile, Harry\u2019s also in his feels and doesn\u2019t want to go to Miranda\u2019s dinner. He reveals to Charlotte that when he was first diagnosed with cancer, one thing he kept telling himself was that he wanted to \u201cmake it to Thanksgiving,\u201d and now that it\u2019s finally here, he wants to be able to celebrate it with his family in a more intimate way. Charlotte hears him out and wonders why he didn\u2019t tell her sooner.<\/p>\n\n\nCourtesy HBO Max<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nBesides, Charlotte is more concerned about her child Rock\u2019s school production of Thoroughly Modern Millie<\/em>. Rock is playing the titular role in the musical, and the first time Charlotte sees them in full costume\u2014makeup, wig, and all\u2014she\u2019s overcome with emotion. Rock is wearing blush and a bright red flapper dress as they step out of the bathroom. They appear before Charlotte in a glowy haze, walking in slow motion. Charlotte later tells her friends that she thought Rock looked so grown-up and \u201cpretty\u201d in that moment, but she didn\u2019t know if she\u2019s allowed to say that to her nonbinary kid.<\/p>\nThe night of the play, Charlotte watches Rock sing and dance in awe. (For what it\u2019s worth, Rock makes a great theater kid!) Notably, the number they\u2019re shown performing is \u201cForget About the Boy,\u201d which mirrors Charlotte\u2019s own desire to forget about Rock\u2019s nonbinary identity. I get that Charlotte probably dreamed of having another daughter, but it feels a little weird to see her impose this feminine identity on her child, wishing they were something they aren\u2019t. After everything both Rock and Charlotte have gone through the past three seasons, shouldn\u2019t Charlotte be a more supportive parent by now?<\/p>\n
Herbert is grieving too, as he\u2019s reminded of his election loss with every parent he faces at the school. Well-wishers try to comfort him for losing to a \u201ccommunity activist in bad shoes.\u201d (Interesting timing as this season coincides with another high-profile New York election.)<\/p>\n\n\nCourtesy HBO Max<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWhen Carrie gets to Lisette\u2019s place, she realizes some changes have been made. There is a wall splitting the unit in half (so much for the renovation Aidan did all those years ago), with Lisette living on one side and her roommate in the other. This isn\u2019t the home she once knew.<\/p>\n
This episode makes clear that Carrie\u2019s new apartment in Gramercy is now too big for her. She initially got it hoping to start a life with Aidan, but that didn\u2019t work out. And now Duncan has, rather unceremoniously, moved out of the basement unit too\u2014off to resume his life in London. Seema mentions that Carrie should buy the bottom-floor unit because Duncan is not coming back, and she\u2019ll get more for it when she resells the full property. Carrie isn\u2019t sure she\u2019s ready for that yet. But it\u2019s not like she\u2019s going to move back to her old place, which is now unrecognizable. So she keeps writing.<\/p>\n
There are a lot of loose ends waiting to be tied up in the finale, like: Seema meeting Adam\u2019s family; whether Charlotte finally comes to terms with Rock\u2019s identity; whether Miranda, Brady, and Mia form a new family unit; and whether Lisa makes any lifestyle changes to embrace better work-life balance. Most of all, the ending of And Just Like That…<\/em> will reveal \u201cthe woman\u201d\u2019s fate, and Carrie\u2019s own. <\/p>\nYou Might Also Like<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Spoilers below.
