You Recap: The Internet’s Boyfriend


After Louise’s friends take to social media to expose Joe, he has to go on the charm offensive. Somehow, it works.

For someone who was so hard on Maddie for not being able to endure a monthlong wait to stop lying to every single person in her life while pretending to be the twin sister she’d just murdered, Joe is VERY unhappy to be told he must be patient, too. Maddie gives Joe the playbook: Apologize “ if you’ve caused any pain,” tease some childhood trauma, do NOT cry, and he can mostly coast on being a hot white guy with great hair. The interview starts fine before veering into crisis mode when Joe brings Kim to the basement, where, while describing Mooney’s “harsh” treatment of him as a child, he breaks down into ugly sobs, but ultimately course-corrects when he gets a text from Louise, who has bought a bus ticket and, in my opinion, cannot get out of town fast enough.
