Rice Pudding
9 April 2023
Very weak motive for murder here. When she asked what kind of dessert she would be to her lover right before blowing him away, he should've repeated to her face "rice pudding" before taking the bullet just to tick her off. And he was probably right too and she was like rice pudding in the sack. All lifeless and mushy and that truth is what drove her to murder.

Had she just walked into the room upon finding her lover with her secretary and attacked him there, it would've been an understandable crime of passion in the heat of the moment.

Instead she shows what a calculating, methodical psycho she is by planning an elaborate dress up scheme to murder him. But why not go for the secretary too? Why does she get a pass for her betrayal? It would've made more sense for her to go after them both.

And being a sex therapist who probably sees these kinds of betrayals all the time, it's surprising how she flies to murder just from finding her lover of only 3 years with another woman.

Is it because he called her rice pudding in bed? Come to think of it, rice pudding is warm comfort food so she could've taken it in a positive way and just dumped him the next day and went on with her successful life.

To kill a boyfriend just because he cheated on her makes her incredibly weak and pathetic, especially since she didn't bother to go after the secretary who was supposed to be loyal to her. I think her betrayal was far worse than his was. I still enjoyed it though, but wish she had a better motive for murder.
