The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 7 recap: Conrad's teary confession leaves Belly torn — will she still marry Jeremiah?
The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 7 recap: The much-anticipated seventh episode of The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 finally dropped on Prime Video on Wednesday (August 20), delivering the explosive Conrad confession fans have been waiting for after weeks of simmering tension. With wedding plans in full swing, the real question remains — is Belly truly ready for a future with Jeremiah? As the finale approaches, long-buried feelings are starting to surface, threatening to derail everything. Starring Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, and Gavin Casalegno, The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 premiered July 16 on Prime Video. Based on Jenny Han's third novel, We'll Always Have Summer, here's a quick catch-up on where things stand and a full breakdown of episode 7. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3: What the show is about The Summer I Turned Pretty is based on Jenny Han's bestselling book trilogy. It follows Isabel 'Belly' Conklin as she spends her summers at Cousins Beach with her family friends, the Fisher brothers, Conrad and Jeremiah. What begins as a light-hearted story of sun-drenched days, first crushes, and family traditions quickly deepens into a tangled love triangle, exploring themes of grief, growing up, and choosing between first love and lasting love. What's happened so far in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3? In season 3, based on the final book in the trilogy, We'll Always Have Summer, wedding bells are ringing as Jeremiah proposes to Belly, and the two begin planning their future together. But unresolved tension between Belly and Conrad lingers, especially after the tragic loss of Susannah, which left deep cracks in the family. While Belly tries to focus on Jeremiah and the picture-perfect wedding ahead, Conrad continues to hover in the background — protective, supportive, but unable to fully hide his feelings. With only days left before the ceremony, emotions are spilling over, friendships are tested, and the love triangle is closer than ever to imploding. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 7 recap When the official page of The Summer I Turned Pretty revealed that episode 7 would be titled We're getting lit, bit**es, fans expected drama, but what unfolded was a full firestorm. The episode opens just days after Conrad's surfing accident, which almost made Belly risk it all. With only three days left before the wedding, she slips into old habits — ignoring Conrad while he busies himself fixing the beach house like a stand-in dad. Meanwhile, Jeremiah gears up for the bachelor party. His squad includes Conrad, Steven, Redbird, his frat brothers, and Denise from the corporate. Belly leans on Taylor and Anika. Jeremiah can't help falling back into bad habits, like sneaking a joint despite Belly's disapproval, though she lets it slide for his 'last night of freedom.' The parents are checked into a nearby inn, with Laurel rekindling her romance while Kayleigh subtly tries to fill Susannah's role—something Laurel clearly resents. The wedding prep energy is high. The girls practise their reception dance to BLACKPINK's Typa Girl, while the boys rehearse their routine to Zayn's Let Me. But the tension between Conrad and Belly lingers, noticed even by Jeremiah, who thanks Conrad for helping with the house but still has doubts about his brother's closeness with Belly. Unexpected truths and old feelings At the club, Belly, tipsy and emotional, thanks Taylor for helping bring her mom on board for the wedding, only to learn Taylor wasn't responsible. Enter Conrad — once again appearing at just the right moment. Flashbacks of their shared history, from the unicorn gift to the debutante ball, play in her mind while Taylor Swift's Robin underscores the scene, symbolising how Conrad has always protected her. Belly pulls Conrad aside to confirm if he was the one who convinced her mom. Though he tries to downplay it, he eventually admits the truth, insisting it was only because he loves Jeremiah and wanted her day to be perfect. it's actually really sad that Belly is so shaken here 🥲 like it's not just that it's Conrad but she's genuinely surprised that someone did something SO good for her and the reason was as simple as her happiness#TheSummerITurnedPretty Belly is left unsettled, and as Ariana Grande's Friends plays, memories of her moments with Conrad — their first kiss, their dances, their intimacy — flood back, reminding her how deep their history runs. Elsewhere, Taylor plays wingwoman for Steven, pushing Denise toward him. Belly, meanwhile, confides in Taylor that everything changed last Christmas when she was alone with Conrad at the summer house. Though nothing happened, she admits she's struggling to move forward with Jeremiah. Taylor insists this is the dream wedding Belly wanted, but Belly blurts out that what she always truly wanted was Conrad. Cabo secret shakes Conrad As Steven flirts with Denise, Jeremiah drinks himself into a mess. Conrad, staying sober, takes on the role of caretaker but grows uneasy watching Jeremiah lose control. During a drunken boys' chat, Redbird casually reveals Jeremiah's Cabo fling with Lacie, exposing that he hasn't been fully faithful to Belly. Conrad overhears everything, rage simmering, but holds back after Jeremiah throws up, realising a confrontation would go nowhere. Later, Belly heads to the beach, where she planned to meet Jeremiah but finds Conrad waiting instead. Conrad finally tells her the truth about Cabo. To his shock, Belly admits she already knew and chose to forgive Jeremiah, saying he regrets it deeply. Conrad is stunned, unable to understand how she moved on so easily from something that happened only months ago. The big bold beach confession Conrad's frustration boils over as he begs Belly to reconsider the wedding. He confesses that he is still in love with her, that he never stopped — not four years ago, not now. He recalls pushing her away at the motel to avoid hurting her, but insists he can't watch her marry someone who cheated on her. He pleads, 'Don't be with him. Don't marry him. Be with me.' Belly, torn and overwhelmed, rejects him, insisting Jeremiah has treated her better than anyone else and is her best friend. She storms off, leaving Conrad in tears. Yet as she walks away, her chest aches — the same way Conrad hurts every time he sees her in Jeremiah's arms. Taylor Swift's loml plays as Belly returns to find Jeremiah asleep in bed, while she crawls into Taylor's bed, too shattered to talk. Elsewhere, Steven's romantic moment with Denise is interrupted by Taylor's drunk mother, Lucinda, hinting at more unresolved storylines to come. As for Belly, Conrad's confession and Jeremiah's exposed past hang heavy, threatening to unravel the wedding she thought she wanted. When does the next episode come out? The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 episode 8 will premiere on Wednesday, August 27, 2025, exclusively on Prime Video. New episodes drop weekly at 12 a.m. PT / 3 a.m. ET.

Pawan Kalyan's Hari Hara Veera Mallu streams on OTT with tweaked ending; fans frustrated by 3 different climaxes
Directors Krish and Jyothi Krisna's historical epic film, Hari Hara Veera Mallu, starring Pawan Kalyan, was released in theatres on 24 July. The film did not perform as expected, receiving criticism for its shoddy VFX and screenplay. After its release on the OTT platform Prime Video on 20 August, the reactions don't seem to get any better. Pawan Kalyan plays the titular character in Krish and Jyothi Krisna's Hari Hara Veera Mallu. Trimmed version of HHVM streams on Prime Video with tweaked ending Since its release in theatres, HHVM has had three different endings. The first version, which was 2 hours 43 minutes long, ended in a ridiculous fight scene between Veera Mallu (Pawan) and Aurangzeb (Bobby Deol) involving a tornado. After receiving criticism for it, producer AM Rathnam trimmed the runtime and ended the film on a different note, with Aurangzeb saying, 'Aandhi vastundi (A storm is coming),' as Veera rides towards him, cutting out the tornado fight. Now, the makers have released a third ending by trimming the runtime to 2 hours and 33 minutes, with the film ending after a fight scene choreographed by Pawan. Fans confused by three different endings for HHVM Once HHVM hit OTT, fans were confused as to why yet another ending was chosen for the film. One fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter), 'Malli kotha climax aa (Not a new climax again).' Another wrote, 'Enti chowki thana fight taruvata end chesava @amjothikrishna. adem ending ra 2nd version better kada ra aandhi vastundi ane deggara end chesav. (You ended the film after the Chowki Thana fight, wasn't the second version better?)' Some fans even got frustrated, asking Jyothi how he delivered three different endings despite going to film school. One wrote, '#HariHaraVeeraMallu Arey @amjothikrishna first day Emo RRR type lo vesavu ending, 3rd day inkoka side vesavu ending, Ott lo emo ah fight ayyaka vesavu ending. Assalu Ninnu evadra film school ki pampinchindhi, pampinchina evdra neeku certify chesindhi (You gave an RRR type ending on first day, then changed it on the third day. Now there's another ending on OTT. How did you graduate from film school?)' Some fans, however, thought the new ending was apt. One wrote, 'This should have been done earlier… a high-ending, a costly miss raa @HHVMFilm.' Another also wrote that the filmmakers lost a 'golden chance' in theatres. HHVM stars Pawan Kalyan, Bobby Deol and Nidhhi Agerwal in lead roles. It tells the story of an outlaw who is tasked with retrieving the Koh-i-Noor from Aurangzeb.
