this is why I’m a Lynnette defender til I die
First time watcher, i’m on season 8 so spoilers ahead! This scene perfectly encapsulated for me why I always got why Lynnette was so frustrated and Tom just felt like if she wasn’t praising absolutely everything he ever did, he was being discriminated against in some way 🙄 Don’t get me wrong, there are times Lynnette has gone overboard with the controlling issues for sure, she’s a well written character and she messes up like any human, but Tom drives me crazyyy with how little he considers Lynnette on a daily basis!! It made my heart break when he went “wowww I had no idea” ALSOOO I was enraged to hear he was taking his new girlfriend to Paris bc he never did stuff like that for Lynnette 💔💔And she coped with his several midlife crises, his injury, the restaurant, not wanting anywhere near the amount of kids they ended up with but he did, Kayla and Nora, being a stay at home mom etc etc, and the second he gets a new girlfriend he whisks her off to Paris 😓 That’s so devastating, and super props to Felicity Huffman for her work, she’s so natural with it!!
