While his two hookups of choice can be chaotic on their own, our most recent contentions come from his indecision. He may not make the wisest (or most legal) of decisions, but he does fight fiercely for those he loves and tends to be a pretty respected voice of authority (unless you are Rue, and insist on running around the house when he specifically requests that you not, multiple times now).Īdo Annie - This is Nate Jacobs, the start of an ill-fated love triangle. He’s new to the plot, so writing him off with minimal strings attached would be easier than most, just like the odd-man-out Jud.Īunt Eller - Fezco, the dealer who looks out for his friends. His story so far is encased in anonymity and while he’s involved in Rue and Jules’ relationship, there is a chance it could all go south quickly. Jud - Elliot, the new and mysterious Dominic Fike, learns about Rue’s recent drug use earlier than anyone else. Ideally, we could have a favorite couple together in the end, but I have to think they will face another season of challenges especially after a new addition to the friendship. In most cases, she means well, but her trust and understanding of Laurey (Rue) wanes as we go forward. She looks to drugs for clarity and decision making too.Ĭurley - Jules. She’s tempted by a new and mysterious friend, but ultimately belongs with her longer-standing relationship. If the characters and plot points of Oklahoma! are serving as some sort of allegory for what’s to come in Euphoria, the HBO characters would align as follows… (In no way are these actual, feasible, casting options should Lexi’s new play fall through and frankly, I doubt most of these characters would dare to attend an extra-curricular.) Just as Laurey begins to make up her mind (thanks to an intoxicating magic potion), Jud and Curley get into an altercation that effectively kills! Jud! (however Curley’s intent is interpreted.) To finish it all off, Curley is cleared of any guilt or consequence, he marries Laurey, and Ali Hakim is told to marry local, random, townsperson Gertie. Ado Annie’s father Andrew Carnes tells Ali Hakim to marry Ado Annie, causing a bidding war between Will and Ali to win over Ado Annie. Meanwhile, Will Parker returns from Kansas City intending to marry Ado Annie, who has actually been spending a lot of time with peddler Ali Hakim. To make her friend-zoned Curley jealous, Laurey goes to a “box social” with Jud, the misunderstood farm hand. The very, very, basic layout is as follows: We first meet Curley, who loves Laurey, a girl who lives with her Aunt Eller. Let’s think back to the original plot of Oklahoma!… the every-suburban-highschool production of Oklahoma before 2019’s Tony-nominated revival challenged some of those viewpoints. If we look at the plot of Oklahoma! and the current standings of our characters - things may make a turn for the worse. After all, Oklahoma! is a show about love triangles, drug use, and death- three major themes that color almost every episode of Euphoria. While the anti- Oklahoma discussion led to one of the best comedic moments of the season ( in a good way or a bad way ?), perhaps our chaotic company could have learned something from the Rodgers and Hammerstein plot. And maybe (possibly, hopefully) her love interest Fezco (yes I am rooting for them, don’t drag me). Instead, the “voice of her generation” reincarnate writes a new play, based closely on her own experiences with sister Cassie. The students quickly came to a consensus, led by Miss Observer Lexi Howard, that Oklahoma! is passé. In Episode 3, we learned of an upcoming production of Oklahoma! to be presented by our favorite highschool’s drama club. The show was renewed for a third season earlier this month, but there’s still plenty of unresolved drama to unfold. With just three episodes left this season (it’s second), conspiracy theorists on all platforms have shared some grim ideas of what’s to come in the remaining episodes. The show has been hailed by fans, condemned by D.A.R.E., and is so “online,” it’s not worth opening Twitter until you’re fully caught up. From Succession to The Righteous Gemstones, there’s always a heightened drama ready to crash the streaming service, but none quite like Euphoria.
