Carrie Gets Asked to Make an Outrageous Delivery on 'And Just Like That...'

Spoilers below. How far would go you to stay in touch with your long-distance, on-and-off boyfriend? Schedule phone calls and frequent visits? Drive hours just to see each other for lunch? Alter your business trips so you can swing by his place? How about smuggle prescription drugs for his teenage son at the behest of his ex-wife? No? Weird. As Carrie continues to navigate her complicated relationship with Aidan, she goes to new lengths to keep their romance alive in season 3, episode 3, 'Carrie Golightly.' Her writing career might help with that. Carrie is now working on a novel, but she's still getting requests for speaking engagements, thanks to her previous work. She's gotten invites from Google and South by Southwest, but the one that intrigues her the most is for a small panel in Virginia—Aidan's home state. She figures she can have a 'casual' lunch with her man on the way home. She doesn't want to make it seem like she's trying too hard and invading his space. But while Carrie is celebrating the soft opening of Anthony's Hot Fellas Bakery, Aidan's ex-wife, Kathy, invades her space. Kathy calls with a strange request, aware that it's embarrassing and a little out of line: Can Carrie pick up some Adderall for her and Aidan's kid, Wyatt? Huh??? Kathy explains that there's a nationwide shortage, and she wouldn't be calling unless she had already tried every other avenue possible. But since Carrie is based in New York and has a lot of connections, could she get her hands on some pills and deliver them when she comes to Virginia? (The next time I think I am asking for too much in life I am going to remember this scene.) Carrie is too nice to say no, but she has no idea how she'll get her hands on the drug 'unless Prada makes Adderall.' Luckily for her, Charlotte, who has two teenage kids, is experienced in this field, as the mothers at Lily and Rock's school are secretly pushing ADHD meds among each other. She approaches two moms in the bakery and snoops around for 30 mg of extended-release Adderall—though she will settle for short-acting—and her contact happens to have a plug for the latter. Who knew Charlotte was in a mommy drug ring? I can't tell if the series is trying to make a point about the limited access to health care and mental health treatment for kids, or if this is just supposed to be a fun bit. It feels too goofy and out of place to be either. When Lisa brings some pastries to the office to work on her docuseries, she's met with some unexpected news: Her producer, Grace, has been offered a job to work on director Steve McQueen's new project, and she plans to accept. The thing is she'll have to leave in a few days, before Lisa's doc is finished. Lisa is furious and feels betrayed, but Grace's position is understandable. Their project has lasted for years longer than they'd planned for, and how can she say no to the director of 12 Years a Slave and Widows? When Lisa takes her anger out on some mashed potatoes later that night, her husband, Herbert, tries to talk her into understanding Grace's side. After mulling it over, she apologizes to Grace and congratulates her on her new gig. Charlotte might be a drug smuggler, but she is not a partier. She worries she's falling behind at work while her younger colleagues stay out late and make sales with high-profile clients at the club. Has she become a boring mom? Her husband, Harry, worries he's also become uncool. So, he decides to enlist Carrie to help him shop for a hip new wardrobe, and Charlotte vows to party with the young ones. It doesn't go over well. After a few drinks, Harry has so much trouble unbuttoning his new tight jeans that he ends up wetting himself, leaving Charlotte to fend for herself at the after-after party. In an effort to be a cool manager, she tries to set up one of her co-workers with a rich Dutch client, but in his coked-up stupor, he mistakes Charlotte's proposal for flirtation. He goes in for a kiss, and it does not end well. Charlotte storms out, finding it's already morning outside. While attending The European Fine Art Fair hung over, Charlotte runs into a fellow school mom who expresses interest in buying a piece from here. It turns out, the mother of two doesn't need to pretend to be in her 20s to be successful at work after all. Miranda asks her British crush, Joy, out to happy hour, pretending it's just so she can ask her for 'camera coaching tips.' Joy seems very interested; though she first advises Miranda to take deep breaths to stay calm during her future TV appearances, things heat up when she begins to give a demonstration. She takes Miranda's hand and puts it to her chest so she can feel her inhaling and exhaling; she does the same to Miranda too. Yeah, I'm thinking there might be a vibe here. And after Miranda's recent experiences with Sister Mary and the guacamole waitress, she could really use a home run. Seema is having a professional problem of her own. Her boss, Elliot, surprise-announces his retirement and that he's selling his shares of the company to Ryan Serhant (the Million Dollar Listing star even makes a quick cameo), rather than propping up Seema as his successor like they previously discussed. In need of a break, Seema decides to join Carrie on her trek to Virginia. While picking her up on the way to the airport, Seema exchanges some rather flirtatious words with Adam, Carrie's gardener. I know it seemed like Carrie and Adam might've had something going on last week, but now it appears sparks are flying between him and Seema. (While she looks down on his graphic tees, she can't deny that Adam is smokin' hot. They've got a kind of Lady and the Tramp vibe going on.) While making sure Carrie's cat, Shoe, doesn't run out of the house, Adam says, while locking eyes with Seema, that he's 'never met a kitty I couldn't bend to my will.' OKAY! As exciting as this development is, does anyone else think that this could be the beginning of a love triangle? During a drive in Virginia, Seema ponders her professional future. (She's driving the rental car because Carrie's license has been expired since 2017. Iconic.) She dreams of having a real estate agency of her own—The Patel Group—but she gets a call from Ryan Serhant, who tells her it's not possible to add her name to their company in its new chapter. Seema's disappointed, but figures things could be worse. While exiting the parking lot, she backs up onto a row of traffic spikes, puncturing the rental car's tires. Apparently, Seema missed the signage saying, 'DO NOT BACK UP.' But she takes it as a sign to not back up in her career—she will move forward instead and go off on her own. I love Seema, but the whole transition felt too forced. Hopefully the rest of her story is handled more gracefully from here. Carrie lucks out—their car being towed is the perfect excuse to call for Aidan's help. He picks her up and asks her to stay over. However, he has not yet told his kids Carrie's visiting, so he asks Carrie to stay in the guest house and plans to give them a heads up first thing in the morning. Before she can forget, she hands Aidan the Adderall delivery—a Ziploc bag with loose orange pills. He looks uncomfortable as he takes it from her. (Is this going to become A Thing?) As Carrie goes to bed, she writes a little more of her draft based on her experiences that day: 'The woman had survived the treacherous journey, mostly in tact.' The journey wasn't that treacherous, though Carrie loves to add a dramatic flair. If anything this week's episode was on the slower side, save for the drug delivery.

Mike Flanagan Offers a Disappointing Update on His EXORCIST Movie — GeekTyrant

Horror fans hoping to see Mike Flanagan's take on The Exorcist in theaters next spring, you're going to have to wait a little longer. While answering questions on Tumblr, Flanagan confirmed that there's 'no way' the film will make its previously scheduled release date of March 13, 2026. The reason why is that he's currently deep in pre-production on his Carrie series for Prime Video, which is taking priority. The filmmaker shared: 'Production hasn't started, we need to finish Carrie first. No way it's coming out next March. Nothing to worry about, though.' Flanagan made it clear the movie is still happening. It's just not ready yet. Universal tapped Flanagan to revive The Exorcist franchise after the lukewarm response to 2023's The Exorcist: Believer , directed by David Gordon Green. While Flanagan hasn't announced a cast or start date yet, he's made no secret of how personally invested he is in the project. The director previously said: 'I chased The Exorcist very aggressively because I was convinced I had something that I could add. This is an opportunity to do something that I believe has never been done within the franchise — something that honors what came before it but isn't built on nostalgia.' That might sound like a risky pitch for a legacy franchise, but Flanagan seems hyper-aware of the weight he's carrying. 'I really just saw an opportunity to make the scariest movie I've ever made. I know expectations are high,' he said. 'No one's more intimidated than I am.' If anyone can pull this off, though, it's Flanagan. He's spent the last decade redefining modern horror on both screens. With The Haunting of Hill House , Midnight Mass , and The Fall of the House of Usher under his belt, not to mention his well-received Stephen King adaptations, his fans have learned to be patient. His latest film, The Life of Chuck , is not really a horror movie, but it won the People's Choice Award at TIFF, solidifying once again that whatever Flanagan touches is worth watching.
