‘And Just Like That …' Season 3, Episode 5 Recap: Heels
Season 3, Episode 5: 'Under the Table' I'm sorry, there's a crappy apartment below Carrie's lavish Gramercy Park palace? With a tenant — her tenant — she has never met or heard of? This is an unexpected (and, like many things on this show) somewhat unbelievable twist. Sure, garden apartments are common, but Carrie is a rich person who bought this house from another rich person. Would either owner really leave the bottom floor in such shambles? Maybe so if it doesn't bother the sexy biographer Duncan Reeves (Jonathan Cake) who lives there only six months of the year solely to write — and smoke a pipe, apparently, which is a detail that took the brooding London author thing a step too far. The only thing that does bother Duncan is the clickity clack of little Carrie heels, which keeps him up all day long as he is trying to sleep. (Brooding London authors can write only at night, see.) It's this complaint that kicks Carrie into her petty era. Duncan requests that Carrie please remove her shoes when she is home, which offends her to her core. He even gifts her a pair of slippers, which she impolitely declines. 'It's New York. There's noise,' she tells him, and continues to click-clack away, albeit with a bit more tiptoe. From there, Carrie's pettiness only grows. When Miranda's Airbnb neighbor comes at her half-naked with a meat cleaver, Carrie insists that her friend come stay in the safe harbor that is Gramercy. Miranda obliges, and then Carrie immediately begins to pick at her for consuming the last yogurt, the last banana and the last Mexican Coke. Again, Carrie is a rich person. And they are best friends. Why is Carrie acting as if Miranda should put down a credit card for incidentals? However, Miranda is rich, too, and she has been divorced from Steve for what, three years now? (Season 1 was a long time ago!) Why she still hasn't found a permanent place to live is perplexing to say the least. Remember the first time Miranda left Steve in the first 'Sex and the City' movie? All she had to do was walk through a gentrifying neighborhood and say the incredibly regrettable line 'White guy with a baby. Wherever he's going, that's where we need to be, and boom, she had a new apartment. (Where was Woke Charlotte when we needed her?) Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
