Here’s our super-not-fun-time-with-JT again. He wears baggy cargo pants as he meets with his client. At school he wears more of the usual preppy stuff – layers, collars, etc. His hair looks a little better… not great, but better. And then of course we see him in a hospital gown. Oof. Just… a bummer of a storyline.

Rando roundup – starting off we have a BREAK DANCER in the student body! He’s got the necessary baggy clothes and he also seems to have dreads. Then we get a little look at some landlords of Toronto, wearing polos and looking grumpy. There’s a shot of JT’s old employers, the TV show people, and then his new employer, the goodly pharmacist.

JT’s life is shifting. Just when he thinks he finds out what he wants to do, which is entertain children, his life takes a sharp turn since he impregnated a girl and now has to finance that. Apparently being on TV doesn’t pay as much as stocking shelves so, the pharmacy at the mall it is! As usual, he’s preppy with that swoop hair, but we also see him channeling his inner Blue’s Clues guy… and he also dressed like a turkey. But then, he had to shed the turkey costume for the blue vest.

Okay, Paige is not really the most relatable teenager at this point. The way she gets ready for this date and waits at a bougie bar looks like the life of a 30-year-old. But hey, what do I know, I grew up in rural & suburban Alabama.

Anyway, the first outfit is the nice greasy work uniform. Then Paige wears this blue blazer that looks to be a very light/acid washed denim, which she wears over a baby blue blouse and white cami. Her teeth are also super-white. I swear, Paige looks just darling in pastels. She hurriedly gets ready for her date with Matt. She puts in a lot of effort, wearing pointy-toe feels, a black strapless skin-tight dress with a shawl, and a black necklace. She looks amazing but like a real adult. And then Matt dumps her because she showers too much.

Next, on the steps of Degrassi, Paige is wearing layers again – a floral blouse layered over a longer cami – that was such a thing. And some flare jeans, with some pointy-toe shoes that look way too uncomfortable for school. This is where she gets high with Alex before the college fair. I think this is arguably a pretty accurate representation of getting high. It’s hard to explain and hard to portray, especially since it seems to be a different experience for everyone, but I really like how they did it here in this episode.

New episode starts now, and what a morbid title we have here! I know these episode titles all come from 80s songs, but I’m not sure if I know this one or not. Anyway, we kick things off with some nice scenes of Alex and Paige at the movie theatre concession stand. Ah, that brown polyester! Then we move on to her regular clothes. Simplistic as it is, I always adore her style. That short haircut, the huge hoops, cross-body bag, tank tops with bra straps hanging out, and cool shades. Always an icon!

Venus Part 2

Something about seeing Manny’s mom out of the house, out from under the thumb of Joseph… she looks more empowered, more autonomous, like she does her own stuff out there in the world. She comes to see Manny at school, and it reminds me of when Michelle’s mom came to see her at school, and also Caitlin’s mom. Julietta wears cropped pants and a jacket. I can’t tell for sure but these might be her work clothes – lastly we see her wearing scrubs back at home.

Spinner ends up in a hair net once again, meekly working for The Dot as an excuse to socialize with his former friends.
