Okay, I'm a typical "white girl", and what I have to say about this episode is it's utterly ridiculous that girl Tori is not rotting in prison! She was clearly a "good white girl" who had a safe home who went looking for trouble. She directly instigated multiple murders. Maybe Tori was truly beat up in the beginning, but she went back for more! Just like Carisi said in court - she was never trapped in a room, she never did anything with a gun to her head. She went home at the end of the night and slept in her own bed and went to school the next day, and obviously not bothered about what she'd done cause she's making all A's. She even took a two week VACATION to another COUNTRY but still went back for more trouble!!
Meanwhile, Jasmine, a young girl of color, is automatically assumed she's a perpetrator and thrown in jail. Like there's no way she could be a victim. Yes, she was also complicit, but if Tori is out free, than Jasmine should be too. And I'm betting Jasmine didn't have a safe home to go to the next day like Tori did.
The sickest thing about this episode is how Olivia, Amanda, and the new guy are sticking up for Tori and trying to get her to cut a deal. Absolutely ludicrous. All the evidence was there - she started the entire thing and should be rotting in prison.
This episode was infuriating. My husband and I almost turned it off cause we couldn't stand that girl's sob story. She was just trying to save her own skin. She should be glad I wasn't in that jury cause I would've determined her guilty 100 percent.
It really sickens me how Olivia couldn't see that Tori's a psycho. Like, it makes me not want to watch the rest of the season. Very disappointed in all the writers and producers.
