The flowers mean sex.

Impressions:

Like last week, more comprehensible of an episode, though I'm not sure it's really working. This one was centered on Kache, the one who… well, whose only claim to fame in the previous three episodes was being raped gratuitously. Which they decided was a defining character trait, so she got to be raped again. And unfortunately, most of the other characters weren't too involved, so it ended up being largely a long existential angsty monologue about wanting attention with a touch of sexual confusion and probably a bit of gay panic without much actually happening, just listening to her ramble and wander around. And be raped.

I also don't particularly like the way it was handled. They show that, like most toxic relationships, resisting or fighting back against him causes escalation. When she slaps him away, he gets more violent with her. But once she has her supposed character development, now he's cowed by her confidence. That's simply not how abusive people work, and are we supposed to be uplifted by her standing up for herself but still broken by obsessing over him afterwards? It's meant to be a mess of unhealthy behaviors, but it's incoherent narratively where I'm not sure what they're really going for with her character or the point of it actually was.
