Finally, the face-off: Leanne meets Faye.
This episode delivers the emotional showdown we’ve been waiting for, Leanne and Faye sit down at a diner to hash things out. It’s awkward, surprisingly sweet, and refreshingly adult. There’s no hair-pulling, just pancakes, passive aggression, and a dash of honesty. Meanwhile, Carol and Bill get drunk in a life raft in the garage. Yes, really.
“Please Be a Lizard” balances confrontation and comedy with its best character writing yet. Leanne’s anger is real, her heartbreak still fresh, but she carries herself with unexpected grace. It’s also the first time Faye feels like a real character instead of just “the other woman.”
