Unlocking Hidden Family Scars: How And Just Like That… Season 3, Episode 10 Exposes the Raw Truth Behind Mommy Issues
Meanwhile, Seema has to worry about living up to the memory of Adam’s late mother, a talented artist who passed down her granola lifestyle and rent-controlled loft to her son. To keep her memory alive, Adam nurtures a house plant with sprawling vines that nearly cover the entire wall of his kitchen. Apparently, it’s the very same plant he gifted to her when he was seven years old. The precious memento all comes to a crashing halt when Seema opens the window for a late-night smoke and accidentally pushes it off the ledge. She thinks that killing the plant that Adam literally refers to as “my mother” would mean that their relationship is donezo. But every time Seema pushes, Adam pulls her back in. After she ignores all of his calls, he chases her self-sabotaging ass down at her office, where he presents to her the salvaged and potted clippings from the felled plant. If that plant can survive a fall, then so can their relationship.
Last but certainly not least, Miranda isn’t dealing with mommy issues as much as she’s dealing with grandmommy issues. Yep. That’s right. They’re making Miranda a grandmother. Brady drops the bomb over dinner with Steve and Miranda, revealing that he knocked up a girl he casually hooked up with who may or may not be named Mia. Steve reacts like he’s about to go into cardiac arrest while Miranda puts her undercover hat on to investigate. Bringing Charlotte as her accomplice, she heads to the hair salon where Mia works to meet the mother of her future granddaughter or grandson or grandthey/them. As Mia shampoos Miranda’s hair, we learn a few essential things about her: she uses astrology to make major life decisions and casually drops phrases like “a fucking vibe” in conversation. In other words, she might just be Miranda’s worst nightmare. When Miranda asks how Mia could possibly know who the father is, Mia sniffs out her ulterior motives. Miranda senses that she’s been caught and meekly reveals her identity. In return, Mia waterboards her. “You have to be a Taurus,” Mia says, repulsed. As Miranda continues to ride cloud nine with Joy, it’s nice to see her challenged in a whole new way that doesn’t just involve romantic struggles. And if this grandbaby subplot means getting more Steve cameos this season? I definitely won’t say no to that.
