That's not a spoiler for the movie, because Claressa's Olympic triumph isn't the ultimate destination, it's just a stop along the way. The film movingly conveys Claressa's connection with her coach, Jason Crutchfield (Bryan Tyree Henry), and there's an understated bond between them. As much as Claressa has to fight her battles in the ring, she's got a lot of struggles in her daily life as well.

They might have even had a romantic spark if she wasn't trying to steal something he needs to save the world. Regardless, Ethan and Grace spend a lot of time joined at the wrist — sometimes literally — because Ethan's racing against time to stop an AI known as The Entity. This time, even the U.S. government doesn't want Ethan and his team to succeed, because if America can control The Entity then it will control the future. All of the other countries have the same mentality, but The Entity is the one really in control. And its reach extends to the real world, where it forces Ethan to make life-and-death decisions. He knows The Entity needs to be destroyed, but it may already be too late for that.

Whoever is chosen will shape the future of the Catholic Church itself. The election may take place behind closed doors in Vatican City, but the secrets that emerge could end the careers of some and potentially spark more scandal in the church.

In Lucius' absence, Rome is ruled by not one but two mad emperors: Geta (Joseph Quinn) and Caracalla (Fred Hechinger).

The Boys' Antony Starr co-stars in the film as Rutledge, the leader of the terrorists who take the security team by surprise and capture the world leaders. President Sutton manages to get free.

Since Kilmer had lost his voice during his battle with throat cancer, Jack Kilmer stepped in to read the words written by his father as he looked back at everything he went through to become the man he wanted to be. Holland (2025) 45% 45% 5.1/10 5.1/10 R 108m 108m Genre Thriller, Mystery, Romance Stars Nicole Kidman, Gael García Bernal, Matthew Macfadyen Directed by Mimi Cave Watch on Amazon What's eating Nancy Vandergroot (Nicole Kidman) in Holland?

What they find isn't what Nancy expected, which turns her world upside down. Transformers One (2024) 64% 64% 7.5/10 7.5/10 PG 104m 104m Genre Animation, Science Fiction, Adventure, Family Stars Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson Directed by Josh Cooley Watch on Amazon Transformers One is the origin story of the franchise's leading hero and villain: Optimus Prime and Megatron.

After befriending B-127 (Keegan-Michael Key) and their former boss, Elita-1 (Scarlett Johansson), Orion and D-16 discover that Cybertron's ruler, Sentinal Prime (Jon Hamm), has betrayed the planet to their enemies. Orion and D-16 are both outraged by this revelation, but they aren't on the same page about how to handle it. That leads to the beginning of a rift between them that will have dire consequences for the future. Twisters (2024) 65% 65% 6.5/10 6.5/10 pg-13 123m 123m Genre Action, Thriller Stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, Anthony Ramos Directed by Lee Isaac Chung Watch on Amazon The new Superman, David Corenswet, has a small role in Twisters, which may be significant years down the line. But he's not the prime attraction here, and neither are Daisy Edgar-Jones or Glen Powell, the two topline stars who have top billing. Instead, it's the tornadoes themselves that are the stars of Twisters, especially when the film veers into cartoonish levels of destruction. Years ago, storm chaser Kate Carter (Edgar-Jones) had a radical idea that tornadoes could be potentially weakened through her experimental method. When the experiment fails, Kate and Javi (Anthony Ramos) are the only survivors from their team. In the present, Javi lures Kate out of retirement to retry her experiment. While back in the field, Kate encounters a YouTube storm chaser, Tyler Owens (Powell), whom she initially dislikes. When the chips are down and the winds are blowing, Kate will be glad to have Tyler on her side.

Ben Affleck plays the unnamed title character in The Accountant, and he's the best criminal accountant that the underworld can buy. The Accountant's autism helps his mind crunch numbers and detect fraud inside criminal organizations. In other words, he can sniff out a rat who's stealing money from his fellow crooks. His latest client is Living Robotics, after an internal client, Dana Cummings (Anna Kendrick), uncovers startling irregularities in the company's records. Co-owner Rita Blackburn (Jean Smart) hired the Accountant to sort things out, but what he discovers is a deadly conspiracy that won't only target him.

Smile 2 (2024) 67% 67% 6.7/10 6.7/10 r 127m 127m Genre Horror, Mystery Stars Naomi Scott, Rosemarie DeWitt, Lukas Gage Directed by Parker Finn Watch on Amazon Smile 2 is an unusual sequel in that the events of the first film aren't really necessary to understand what's happening in this one. Skye Riley (Naomi Scott) has no idea who Rose Cotter (Sosie Bacon) is or what happened to her in Smile, and the person who unintentionally connects them is a police officer named Joel (Kyle Gallner). Before long, Skye finds herself plagued by the same curse that afflicted Rose and Joel, and she doesn't know what to make of all of the creepy smiles she sees on everyone's faces. Skye isn't just some random woman; she's a pop star on the verge of even greater stardom. But the curse has a way of getting under its victims' skin and driving them insane.

Picture This (2025) 55% 55% 5.8/10 5.8/10 100m Genre Romance, Comedy Stars Simone Ashley, Hero Fiennes Tiffin, Sindhu Vee Directed by Prarthana Mohan Watch on Amazon Bridgerton's Simone Ashley leads the cast of Picture This as Pia, a young woman struggling to keep her photography business afloat as her family prepares for the month-long build-up to the wedding of her younger sister, Sonal (Anoushka Chadha). During one of the wedding events, a spiritual advisor tells Pia that she will find the love and career success that she has always wanted somewhere in the next five dates that she goes on.

She also has to deal with her ex-boyfriend, Charlie (Hero Fiennes Tiffin), who is part of the wedding party on the groom's side. Seeing Charlie again makes Pia reexamine their relationship, and it's hard not to wonder if the prediction about her love life was wrong. The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) 46% 46% 7.0/10 7.0/10 pg 93m 93m Genre Animation, Family, Adventure, Fantasy, Comedy Stars Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day Directed by Aaron Horvath, Michael Jelenic Watch on Amazon The Super Mario Bros. Movie was such a massive hit both in theaters and on streaming that it's kind of redeemed everything that happened after the first Super Mario Bros. movie. Animation was clearly the way to go for this adaptation, as Mario (Chris Pratt), Luigi (Charlie Day), and Princess Peach (Anya Taylor-Joy) look like they stepped out of a Nintendo Switch and into a breathtaking video game world. The story serves as an origin for the Mario brothers, as they accidentally find themselves transported to the Mushroom Kingdom just as it's under attack by Bowser (Jack Black) and his army of Koopa Troopas. When Luigi gets captured by Bowser, Mario has to discover his inner hero alongside Peach and Toad (Keegan-Michael Key) as they search for allies in their struggle.

In the Land of Saints and Sinners (2023) 60% 60% 6.3/10 6.3/10 r 106m 106m Genre Action, Thriller Stars Liam Neeson, Kerry Condon, Ciarán Hinds Directed by Robert Lorenz Watch on Amazon Liam Neeson's action thrillers are kind of a dime a dozen, but In the Land of Saints and Sinners is one of his best. Neeson plays Finbar Murphy, a World War II veteran living in Ireland during 'the Troubles' in the '70s. To support himself, Finbar has started working for a crime boss, Robert McQue (Colm Meaney), as an assassin. Finbar also befriends a younger contract killer named Kevin (Game of Thrones' Jack Gleeson), but one of their mutual targets is the brother of Doireann McCann (Kerry Condon), a formidable woman who won't back down from her revenge. Doireann is determined to avenge her brother, no matter who she has to kill to do it.

Nearly two years later, Colt reenters Jody's life when she's gotten the chance to direct her own movie. Jody isn't exactly happy to see her ex again, but she needs her help. Her star, Tom Ryder (Kraven the Hunter's Aaron Taylor-Johnson), has gone missing, and this is more than just an actor on an extended bender. Without Tom, there is no movie to be made, and Jody's career will be over before it starts. Thus, Colt is drawn into a bigger mystery as he tries to locate Tom and make amends with Jody. A Quiet Place: Day One (2024) 68% 68% 6.3/10 6.3/10 pg-13 99m 99m Genre Horror, Science Fiction, Thriller Stars Lupita Nyong'o, Joseph Quinn, Alex Wolff Directed by Michael Sarnoski Watch on Amazon Typically, alien invasion movies involve humanity putting up a fight. But in A Quiet Place: Day One, the battle is over before it even begins, as humans can't withstand an attack by sightless alien hunters. Sam (Lupita Nyong'o) witnessed the carnage herself while on a day out with her cat in the city. Sam quickly realizes that her survival hinges on her ability to be quiet. Another survivor, Eric (The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Joseph Quinn), might be the last friend she ever makes.

But the film is largely reworked into an original story that focuses on three characters: Kathy (Jodie Comer), her lover, Benny (Austin Butler), and the leader of the Vandals Motorcycle Club, Johnny (Tom Hardy). Johnny had high-minded ideals when he founded the club in the 1960s. Over the course of the next decade, Johnny and his friends are almost unrecognizable in what they're willing to do for the club. Despite Benny's love for Kathy, he keeps getting drawn back into Johnny's vision for the club, even when it may destroy him. Knives Out (2019) 82% 82% 7.9/10 7.9/10 pg-13 131m 131m Genre Comedy, Crime, Mystery Stars Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas Directed by Rian Johnson Watch on Amazon Daniel Craig sheds his James Bond persona like a separate skin in Knives Out. Craig steps into the role of Southern sleuth Benoit Blanc, a man whose accent is just shy of Foghorn Leghorn territory. However, the voice somehow works for this comedic murder mystery. Ana de Armas has a standout turn as Marta Cabrera, the loyal housekeeper of a wealthy author, Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer). After Harlan dies, his spoiled extended family is stunned to discover that his entire fortune has been left to Marta. The family does not know that Harlan was murdered. Plus, Marta is horrified to discover that the evidence points back to her just as Blanc begins his investigation. Abigail (2024) 62% 62% 6.6/10 6.6/10 r 109m 109m Genre Horror, Thriller Stars Melissa Barrera, Dan Stevens, Alisha Weir Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, Tyler Gillett Watch on Amazon Scream's Melissa Barrera reunites with directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett for Abigail, a film that is very much unlike her previous genre movies. Barrera plays Joey, a military veteran who has hit hard times. That's why she agreed to work with Frank (Dan Stevens) and a group of other criminals to kidnap a young girl named Abigail (Alisha Weir). Joey tries to form a connection with Abigail to assure the young girl that she will remain safe before learning that the latter is the daughter of a dangerous crime lord, Kristof Lazaar (Matthew Goode). However, the greatest threat to the kidnappers is Abigail herself, because she's more than she appears to be. When Abigail strikes, it's lethal. Canary Black (2024) 5.5/10 5.5/10 103m Genre Action, Thriller, Crime Stars Kate Beckinsale, Rupert Friend, Saffron Burrows Directed by Pierre Morel Watch on Amazon You can tell that Canary Black has been on the shelf for a while since it has the late Ray Stevenson in one of his final roles. But it's also a showcase for Kate Beckinsale to get back into her action heroine mode, which she's been doing for about two decades now. Beckinsale plays Avery Graves, a CIA operative who has kept her husband, David Brooks (Rupert Friend), in the dark about who she really is and what her job entails. When terrorists kidnap David, they blackmail Avery into retrieving a file called Canary Black that could lead to an attack on her country. Stevenson plays Avery's mentor and boss, Jarvis Hedlund, and even he's not sure he can trust her when she goes rogue. But if Avery can't find a way out from under the terrorists' control, she may lose everything she holds dear. Monkey Man (2024) 70% 70% 6.9/10 6.9/10 r 121m 121m Genre Action, Thriller Stars Dev Patel, Sikandar Kher, Pitobash Directed by Dev Patel Watch on Amazon Dev Patel made his directorial debut with Monkey Man, a film in which he also stars as the main character. And despite the title, Patel's character doesn't actually transform into a monkey or even go by that name. The audience only knows him as Kid, a man who will do anything to get his revenge on Rana Singh (Sikandar Kher), the corrupt police chief who murdered his mother. Kid does wear a monkey mask when he's in the ring for an underground fighting circuit. However, his real disguise is pretending to be an ordinary waiter at a high-end brothel so he can rise through the ranks and get close enough to assassinate Rana no matter what his vengeance costs him. Terrifier 2 (2022) 59% 59% 6.1/10 6.1/10 r 138m 138m Genre Horror, Thriller Stars David Howard Thornton, Lauren LaVera, Elliott Fullam Directed by Damien Leone Watch on Amazon Art the Clown (David Howard Thornton) is back for another round of terror in Terrifier 2.

Art must sense the same thing, since he kidnaps Sienna's brother, Jonathan (Elliott Fullam), and terrorizes their family. Now, Sienna has to save her brother, but first, she must live through her encounter with Art. Challengers (2024) 82% 82% 7.2/10 7.2/10 r 132m 132m Genre Romance, Drama Stars Zendaya, Mike Faist, Josh O'Connor Directed by Luca Guadagnino Watch on Amazon You may have to pay close attention to Challengers, because the story doesn't take place in chronological order. Zendaya stars as Tashi Duncan, a rising tennis star romantically drawn to two other players on the pro tour: Patrick Zweig (Josh O'Connor) and Art Donaldson (Mike Faist). Both young men want Tashi for themselves, but only one of them is willing to play dirty to get her. Even when one of them wins Tashi's heart, it doesn't end the romantic entanglement between this trio as their lives unfold and intersect over several years. Ultimately, the battle between these two men is going to come back to the place where it all began: on the tennis court.

But in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, time is almost up for the title character. Puss relies on his nine lives to survive the epic adventures. And now that Puss is on his very last life, he's truly scared about his potential fate — so much so that he abandons his identity and tries to live as a normal cat. However, Puss learns that there may be a way to restore his lost lives if he can find a magical wishing star. Puss isn't the only one looking for the star, nor the only one who desperately needs what it can offer him.

After Bob and his wife, Rita Marley (The Marvels actress Lashana Lynch), narrowly survive an assassination attempt in his native Jamaica, it sends him into a creative tailspin that threatens to derail his dreams. Before Bob can resume his message of peace, he has to face his own inner demons and work out his issues with Rita. Bob Marley didn't have a lot of time in this world, but the film shows that he made the most of what he had and left a lasting legacy of music behind. American Fiction (2023) 81% 81% 7.5/10 7.5/10 r 117m 117m Genre Comedy, Drama Stars Jeffrey Wright, John Ortiz, Erika Alexander Directed by Cord Jefferson Watch on Amazon American Fiction casts The Batman Part Two's Jeffrey Wright as Dr. Thelonious 'Monk' Ellison, a college professor and a novelist whose books sell very poorly. Monk is also upset that another writer, Sinatra Golden (Issa Rae), has found massive success while seemingly pandering to Black stereotypes. So Monk writes his own novel as a satire of Golden's books before submitting it for publication. Much to Monk's surprise and horror, his satire is embraced by the publisher and the general public. The satire of the piece goes unnoticed, as the book becomes so popular that it starts taking over Monk's life, even though he made sure that his real name wasn't listed as the author. But once the book is out and Hollywood comes knocking, it may be too late. The Idea of You (2024) 67% 67% 6.7/10 6.7/10 r 116m 116m Genre Romance, Comedy, Music Stars Anne Hathaway, Nicholas Galitzine, Ella Rubin Directed by Michael Showalter Watch on Amazon The irony of the premise of The Idea of You is that the romantic entanglement of Solène Marchand (Eileen's Anne Hathaway) with boy band lead singer Hayes Campbell (Nicholas Galitzine) would probably be more of a fantasy for Solène's daughter, Izzy (Ella Rubin), than for Solène herself. But one unplanned encounter between Solène and Hayes soon leads to several others. There is an age gap between Solène and Hayes that does come up in the film, but the bigger issue between them is the celebrity gap. As long as Hayes is a world-famous musician, he and Solène may never be able to enjoy a normal romance without being hounded by the press. Road House (2024) 59% 59% 6.3/10 6.3/10 r 121m 121m Genre Action, Thriller Stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Daniela Melchior, Conor McGregor Directed by Doug Liman Watch on Amazon In this remake of the popular 1989 movie starring Patrick Swayze, Jake Gyllenhaal portrays Elwood Dalton as a former UFC fighter who has fallen on some hard times. Road House gives Elwood a chance for redemption when Frankie (Jessica Williams) recruits him to be the bouncer at her bar, which shares its name with the title of the film. Elwood's fighting skills go a long way towards keeping order at The Road House, much to the anger of a local mobster, Ben Brandt (Billy Magnussen). Elwood took care of Brandt's regular goons with ease, but he'll have a much harder time handling Knox, an enforcer for Brandt who is played by an actual UFC fighter, Conor McGregor. The Other Zoey (2023) 5.9/10 5.9/10 pg-13 91m 91m Genre Romance, Drama, Comedy Stars Josephine Langford, Drew Starkey, Archie Renaux Directed by Sara Zandieh Watch on Amazon The Other Zoey is not a remake of the Sandra Bullock rom-com While You Were Sleeping. But romantic comedy fans may notice some similarities between the two. Josephine Langford stars as Zoey Miller, a high school student who is definitely not the girlfriend of soccer star Zach MacLaren (Drew Starkey), whose girlfriend is also named Zoey (Maggie Thurmon). When Zach suffers a head injury that gives him partial amnesia, he mistakes Zoey for his girlfriend, and his doctors warn her not to upset him with the truth. So Zoey carries on the deception and gets closer to Zach on a lavish vacation. At the same time, Zoey also feels attracted to Zach's cousin, Miles Maclaren (Archie Renaux), who shares many of her views about love and life. So, which guy does Zoey really want? You'll have to watch the film to find out. Role Play (2023) 5.5/10 5.5/10 r 101m 101m Genre Crime, Romance, Action Stars David Oyelowo, Kaley Cuoco, Bill Nighy Directed by Thomas Vincent Watch on Amazon Emma (The Flight Attendant's Kaley Cuoco) and Dave Brackett (David Oyelowo) are just about as happy as a couple could be in Prime Video's Role Play. The Bracketts have two children and a beautiful home in a New Jersey suburb. What they're lacking is the passion in the bedroom that they used to have before starting a family. For their anniversary, Dave and Emma take a trip to New York and indulge in some role play. That turns out to be a mistake when Bob Kellerman (Bill Nighy) blows Emma's cover and exposes her as an international assassin. Now, Emma has to use her skills to protect her family and keep her marriage to Dave intact. Totally Killer (2023) 60% 60% 7.1/10 7.1/10 r 106m 106m Genre Horror, Comedy Stars Kiernan Shipka, Olivia Holt, Julie Bowen Directed by Nahnatchka Khan Watch on Amazon Amazon Studios' Totally Killer seems to welcome comparisons to Back to the Future, and it's one of the more unique blends of sci-fi, comedy, and horror. The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina's Kiernan Shipka stars as Jamie, a teenager who is very familiar with the story about how her mom, Pam (Julie Bowen), survived the Sweet Sixteen Killer 35 years ago. It's something that Jamie has heard about many times in her life. When the Sweet Sixteen Killer returns in the present, Jamie finds herself transported back in time to 1987, when her much younger mother (Olivia Holt) was apparently one of the mean girls in school. Yet if Jamie can't protect Pam in the past then she may not have a future to go home to.

‘The Summer I Turned Pretty' Teases Conrad's Voiceover
Spoilers below. Last week's The Summer I Turned Pretty ended with Belly and Jeremiah dropping the news of their engagement to their families with disastrous results. Season 3, episode 4 starts two weeks later: Belly and Jeremiah are living separately, but remain industrious. Jeremiah calls Belly for her birthday from his new internship, which he got from his dad. She is at her mom's house and busy waiting tables for cash to build up their wedding fund. Jere feels guilty he isn't earning any actual money, but Belly encourages him to keep showing his best side to his father. Unfortunately, neither one of them is getting very far with convincing their respective families that this August wedding is a serious prospect. Laurel and John may not want to deal with their daughter getting married, but they do want to celebrate her birthday. After her phone call, they greet her downstairs with pancakes and a bottle of wine from the year she was born. She is 21! Belly tries to milk the birthday vibes to get Laurel to join her for some wedding dress shopping, but it's a no go. Laurel is still not okay with the marriage plans and breakfast ends abruptly. Belly leaves her mom and dad to discuss the topic. Only John believes it is happening one way or another, and tries to convince Laurel to be supportive. It does not work. At the office, Jeremiah serves his dad a hot latte and gets the cold shoulder. His dad changes the subject as well when Jere tries to bring up the wedding. Chastened, he heads out to the intern pen where Steven is hard at work. The other interns seem annoyed with the 'nepo baby,' but Steven defends Jere. He ends up sparring with the other office gamer, Denise, who makes a point about how quickly guys like Jeremiah move up the corporate ladder. Steven is less supportive of Jeremiah's complaints about the wedding. He also wants the young couple to wait, but Jere wins him over by asking him to be his 'co-best man' with Conrad (if he can get his brother on the phone). For some reason, Steven is suddenly very excited by this responsibility and starts planning the bachelor party. As long as Jere doesn't tell Laurel! Taylor, meanwhile, is trying to get Lucinda to work on her salon books, but her mom seems more interested in reconnecting with her scumbag ex, Scott. Belly gives Taylor a call to go dress shopping, which is something Lucinda is excited about. The girls meet up at the mall and though Belly pushed for the excursion, she seems pretty blue—maybe because they're not an actual bridal shop. (This store sells prom dresses.) Taylor is anxious herself about leaving Lucinda for her New York internship and on her mother is on her last nerve. Belly, however, is just glad to have 'someone's mom' at her dress excursion. The very last dress off the sale rack ends up being the one, a simple and affordable slip dress, but it's not enough to cheer up Belly. She cancels birthday dinner and sends Taylor off with Lucinda. Jere tells Belly that Steven agreed to be best man, but she seems disappointed it is not Conrad. She then breaks down about the dress shopping, asking Jere how they'll 'do this without both of our moms.' He ends up driving 90 miles an hour to Belly's house after work to bring her a birthday cake, flowers for Laurel, as well as a small gift—a key to the house at Cousins. He tells her it will officially be hers in six weeks, when they're married. After a group hug, Laurel gets the young couple to sit down and discuss the wedding seriously. Jeremiah gives an impassioned speech about being Belly's person, admitting that when they got together after he lost his mom, Susannah, it helped him figure out who he was again. He insists his mom would be happy for them. But Laurel says they'll never know what Susannah would have wanted and that no one can know what a lifetime will bring. She asks them to wait until they've graduated from school at least before tying the knot. But no compromise is reached and Laurel is still a firm no. Belly chases her mom upstairs, continuing the fight. Laurel refuses to attend the wedding, calling it a 'stupid mistake' that's 'killing her.' Belly storms out with Jeremiah. They go to spend the night in Cousins and wake up to find Conrad there as well. Why isn't he in California? Conrad seems to have been offline in the beach house the last few weeks, and no one knows he was fired from his original clinic job. As Conrad goes for a panic run, Belly and Jeremiah discuss his surprise appearance and she seems to sense that he has a 'secret.' They also consider where Belly should go, but after exploring the options, Jere convinces her to stay in Cousins. With Conrad. On his run, Conrad talks to his emotional support co-worker, Agnes, who tells him he got the gig at Garth back in California, so he may have a reason to leave. When he gets back to the house, Jeremiah finally pins his brother down for a conversation while catching some waves. Unlike Steven, Conrad is not won over by being a co-best man. He points out that both Laurel and John agree for once about waiting to get married—and it might be because they're right. Conrad calls the wedding plan 'ridiculous,' which pisses Jere right off. He hangs ten to shore. Belly texts her dad to walk her down the aisle, admitting she left their home in Philly, then spars with Conrad to prove she's not a child. The text sends John over to Laurel's, where they fight over Laurel's decision to cut off Belly on her wedding day. John seems to think it is better to be there for their daughter's mistakes than not at all. He points out that Belly and Jeremiah aren't destined to be Their Parents 2.0. The former married couple discuss where things went wrong for them and Laurel says the mistake for her was getting married too young and having kids too young. But she doesn't blame John, she blames herself. She doesn't want the same for Belly. Jere and Belly spend the evening watching movies in the pool and mocking Conrad's valid concerns. He buys a plane ticket to California as their laughter floats up to his bedroom. Steven is spending his Sunday working on a project at his internship, where he and Denise discuss business stuff and find they have a lot in common. Like the desire to Make Things, one of Steven's prime directives. Steven ends up calling Taylor after casually going through Lucinda's books again. Taylor assures him they have it under control, but it turns out Scott opened lines of credit in Lucinda's name. There's no way she'll get a small business loan without paying off 10k of Scott's debt. Steven offers to pull some of the money together, but she refuses to be his charity case. As Jeremiah gets ready to go back to work, Belly struggles to say goodbye. She talks herself out of going to Paris and Jeremiah admits he doesn't want her to go. Ughhhhh. Upstairs, Belly hangs up her mall dress only to find the gown Laurel bought her for the deb ball, which is also conveniently white. She flashes back to being a child and having Susannah show her the new room she designed just for her, meaning she'd no longer share a room with the boys. But they found her anyway, spooking her in her new big bed. Young Belly finds the moms tipsy in the kitchen that night, saying she doesn't want to sleep alone, so Laurel brings her back upstairs to snooze together. Back in the present, Belly is clearly missing her mom's comfort and presence. Conrad is packed to go, but he hears Belly crying in her room. He appears to leave without saying anything. Like Belly, Taylor has massively changed her life plans for an irresponsible reason. She gave up her internship in New York and used her rent money to pay off the debt. She even cleaned up the house alone and is going to drag her mom into responsible business ownership by her hair. Lucinda seems to realize she has massively messed up as a mother here, but Taylor can't be reasoned with. She promises to pay back her daughter, but Taylor is staying home next year. Belly wakes to find Conrad hasn't gone: He's not only doing the dishes, he's agreed to be co-best man at her wedding. He tells Belly he thinks it's good she and Jere are together and they obviously make each other happy—almost as happy as Conrad makes Belly with a belated birthday gift of baked goods. The episode ends with a hug between the former lovers and Conrad's plaintive voiceover asking, 'What have I done?' Great question, Conrad.

Countdown Counters a Steamy Amber/ Mark Scene With Frightful Cliffhanger
The following contains spoilers from the July 30 episode of , now streaming on Prime Video. Countdown Episode 8 (of 13) came thisclose to throwing two team members into bed, before leaving viewers with one gut punch of a cliffhanger. More from TVLine Destination X Winner Revealed! Grade Season 1 and the Finale Countdown's Elliot Knight Breaks Down That Bell/Valwell Bait-and-Snitch: 'His Eye Is on the Prize' Gen V Season 2 Trailer Reveals Ethan Slater's Casting, Starlight's Mission for Marie and a Chance Perdomo Tribute 'The Nail in the Chair' opened with flashbacks to 2021, where we witnessed the beginnings of Volchek (Bogdan Yasinski) making his tiny mark in America, by scooping up a fleet of Los Angeles parking lots to funnel money through. That plan proved ill-fated, however, when he got caught trying to bribe a city official. Irate at being deprived of the American dream (coupled with everything else he had lost), he killed his heretofore-helpful lawyer in a fiery car explosion, and set out on his plan of vengeance…. In the present day, we saw Volchek test law enforcement response times by having a hired hand park a skinned 'American Postal Service' truck outside the federal building. As the task force scouted out the scene, Blythe (Eric Dane) repeatedly reprimanded Meachum (Jensen Ackles) for getting too close to the potentially explosive truck — which happened to interrupt Mark telling his SAC about his tumor. Afterwards, Bell (Elliot Knight) got a bead on a property where Volchek & Co. are likely storing the other skinned trucks. (That earned him an appreciated 'Attaboy!' from SAC Blythe.) By the time the team arrived at the remote location, the barn was empty, but there was evidence (many emptied bags of fertilizer) to underscore the magnitude of the threat at hand. Blythe sent his team home to catch up on sleep ahead of an assuredly busy 48-hour shift. Meachum invited Oliveras (Jessica Camacho) to spare herself some commuting time by crashing at his place — he'll 'take the sofa' and all that — but after an exchange of looks that screamed, 'We would not wind up sleeping,' Amber declined. For one, she needs to sleep with a white noise machine (that Mark generously offered to imitate); secondly, she snarked, 'I'm not Melinda Bates' (as in Mark's ex-girlfriend) 'or her sister Rachel' (with whom he cheated on Melinda). 'So that wouldn't work.' Blythe meanwhile used the latest gathering of evidence — and some strong-armed nudges from D.C. politicians — to leverage Belarusian consul general Astapov into coughing up his file on Volcheck. Astapov agreed, and (as we all do!) had handy the location of a random alley at which he and Buh-lyyythe should meet that night. When Blythe rolled up, he found Astapov dead behind the wheel of his sedan, sporting a Colombian necktie. Blythe barely had a chance to react when he turned to find himself on the receiving end of a dagger being twisted into his side by Volchek. Spooked by passing headlights, Volchek sauntered away, while a stunned Blythe slowly slumped to the pavement, the blade sticking through his suit jacket and looking not easily extractable….
