thinking about how the "im sorry i ruined everything" conversation between juliette and margot is probably almost the same one margot and davina had the first time they saw each other after margot ran from her wedding but with drastically different endings
Before Margot met Sebastian and before Talia met Jack, they knew each other, they fell in love with each other and all is well until Davina meets Talia and wipes her memory of every trace of Margot.
Margot isn’t so lucky, Davina decides to punish her with the knowledge that this woman would exist and live and never know who she was to her. The knowledge that Talia could pass her on the street and would not so much as blink.
i figured out why first kills pacing felt off and its because it all felt like a pilot, like how we didnt get too much development of the characters, most of it happening to calliope and juliette (which makes sense) and then theo and talia at the end, and the "big conflict" of the guild versus legacies fell flat without any follow through, they didnt kill any of the legacies during the mission/raid thing and no one really got captured/killed for long, by either side, a lot of this sets up a lot of questions that I want answered in a second season, but it also leaves a lot of open ends that leave the season falling kinda flat and feeling unfinished, like it was a pilot episode or the first half of a season rather than a full season by itself, it feels like they lost focus part way through writing and forgot to wrap up a lot of the season one plot lines
