Ok…I am apparently WAY to upset/obsessed with this Cait/Maddie moment to let it go…so after many, MANY views, here is what I am seeing now… The very first time Maddie speaks…”Up again?”, Cait seems to have a look on her face like, “Ugh.,..you’re still here???” After that, Maddie tried to hold Cait…and Cait pulls away. Then Maddie tries kissing her with what I am sure is genuine affection for Cait…and as soon as she gets to her neck, Cait’s expression is just “Nope! Not going there!” and pulls away AGAIN! And THEN…Maddie tries to get Cait to see herself as Maddie does….and Cait just gets up and walks away! Then…we have what Cait says. “I never expected this to go on so long. I don’t…I don’t know what I though. Just…it wasn’t this.” Maddie thinks Cait is talking about the Zaun situation and everything, but Cait was CLEARLY also referencing what was going on between them. Cait is NOT invested in things as Maddie is. Maddie is ABSOLUTELY head over heels for Cait…just as Vi is. But at the same time, Maddie also has a bit of “hero worship” going on. It is clear that she will probably do anything Cait says, follow her anywhere, do anything to support her. She wants Cait to see what she sees so much, to support her, to be whatever she needs that she might just be totally oblivious to the fact that she is the rebound….and that is not going to end well for her. Did Maddie do anything wrong…no. Did Cait? Technically…no. But at the same time, this is NOT the relationship anyone wanted to see play out. I am also to the point of thinking after Ambessa told Vi that her absence “left a vacuum for her to fill”….so at one point I would thinking Ambessa somehow manipulated them into getting together to begin with, despite her advice on “professional entanglements”, because let’s be honest....she did NOT look surprised to see her there at all! But NOW...apparently the head writer has made it known that it was a mutual attraction, though Caitlyn was mostly approaching it from the angle of "what if I dated someone my mom would approve of?". Which for me…having THIS thought in my head just makes it so much WORSE. To know that this is how Cait approached it…because the entire time, Cait just pulls away from Maddie even though it’s obvious they’ve been at this for a while (which still makes me nauseous). And then the ending....while losing Isha and Vander in one shot (pardon the pun) is tragic in itself….it is also a much darker, and poetic moment at the same time. Vander was fully aware of what was going on when Warwick was on the rampage….but like a passenger in a car, he was completely unable to control it when it was happening. Imagine being in that situation where you see the carnage “you” are causing, and being 100% helpless to stop it. So when Isha pulled the trigger….she was doing Vander a kindness. But…now with act 3 looming tomorrow…there is a lot to actually be afraid of, especially on the Cait/Vi/Jinx front, because nothing is going to end well or be an easy resolution for any of them. - Cait will likely still never be able to forgive Jinx/Powder because she killed her mother, which isn’t good for Vi. - Vi can’t ever get past the trying to get her sister back to the “good side”, which will always cause problems with Cait. - Jinx/Powder will ALWAYS be known for the death and chaos she caused, which will always be something Vi has to be associated with. Cait can’t kill Jinx without losing Vi forever, Vi can’t NOT let Cait have Jinx and still get her cupcake, and Jinx can’t just be let go for everything she did, which will cause Vi to lose Cait. It’s not going to be a happy ending in Act 3…and I am NOT prepared for it.

Ok…I am apparently WAY to upset/obsessed with this Cait/Maddie moment to let it go…so after many, MANY views, here is what I am seeing now…
The very first time Maddie speaks…”Up again?”, Cait seems to have a look on her face like, “Ugh.,..you’re still here???”
After that, Maddie tried to hold Cait…and Cait pulls away.
Then Maddie tries kissing her with what I am sure is genuine affection for Cait…and as soon as she gets to her neck, Cait’s expression is just “Nope! Not going there!” and pulls away AGAIN!
And THEN…Maddie tries to get Cait to see herself as Maddie does….and Cait just gets up and walks away!
Then…we have what Cait says. “I never expected this to go on so long. I don’t…I don’t know what I though. Just…it wasn’t this.” Maddie thinks Cait is talking about the Zaun situation and everything, but Cait was CLEARLY also referencing what was going on between them. Cait is NOT invested in things as Maddie is. Maddie is ABSOLUTELY head over heels for Cait…just as Vi is.
But at the same time, Maddie also has a bit of “hero worship” going on. It is clear that she will probably do anything Cait says, follow her anywhere, do anything to support her. She wants Cait to see what she sees so much, to support her, to be whatever she needs that she might just be totally oblivious to the fact that she is the rebound….and that is not going to end well for her.
