Emily in Paris Recap: Out-of-Office Reply


Emily in Rome has a promising premiere, what with being away from work and Gabriel and all.

Pain awaits us in the girls’ apartment, where Mindy is in an absolutely horrendous outfit: a turquoise leather bomber-ish thing with these giant rhinestones that look like they’re attacking her, and also a necklace that’s a fabric rose and pink patterned leggings and green boots? She does an excellent job of standing up for herself — it probably helps that she’s had some practice and made this exact same speech to her dad once upon a time — complete with “If that threatens or upsets you, then you don’t deserve to have me in your life.” Well, it’s better to have an insane outfit and sound logic than the other way around. He is at least ten years too old to be here and it shows, though he does enjoy some spirited beer pong and winds up getting kissed on the lips by Genevieve in a way that I expect she later will play off as romantically promising (when she mentions it to Emily in a fake gesture of friendship) no matter what Gabriel says.
