The Fosters: Liam Exposed . . . And What’s Up With Jude?

The Fosters: Liam Exposed . . . And What’s Up With Jude?

Posted by Dustin on 07.17.2013 at 8:27 pm

So the latest episode of “The Fosters” confirmed our suspicions, Liam raped Callie. Though she never used the word rape on the show, she did say he forced her to have sex with him when she told him she was not ready. What started as him flirting with her and making her feel special ended with him raping her, and she suspected the new foster girl in the house was going through the same thing . . . or would shortly. By the end of the episode Callie told Lena and Stef what happened to her.

Other happenings . . . Lexie ran away, but it was a plot between her and Mariana, who had made up. They were trying to keep Lexie from being sent to boarding school. Her parents didn’t want to go to the cops, and in the end it came out that they were undocumented. When Lexie learned she was illegal as well, she was not happy. But it also gave her an ace. She came home, but threatened to call immigration herself if they forced her to go to a boarding school. Damn! Lexie and Mariana are both little devils.

I wanted to smack the hell out of Jesus in this episode for how he blamed Mariana for everything that had happened with Lexie. Really Jesus? Maybe you should have kept it in your pants, or at least have used protection! Kids these days think the worst thing that can happen from unprotected sex is getting pregnant. No, it’s not!

Mariana continues to see her bio-mom Ana, who keeps pushing her to get her money or “things” she can sell. She swears she needs the money to go to rehab, but I don’t think so! She’s still a junkie.

Finally Jude made a new friend at school. What’s up with this kid? I have the feeling they are trying to hint that he may be gay, but I’m not sure. Do you have thoughts on this? Share them!

Despite protests from groups like “One Million Moms,” the show has not yet been canceled, but no news yet on renewal. Recent episodes have been hitting series highs in the ratings, which is good. The promos are calling the final few episodes the “summer finale,” which is also good as they aren’t saying “series finale.”

Spoilers for the finale three episodes of the season below!

  1. I love this show and I certainly hope that it is not canceled because of homophobia.
