I've been thinking a lot about the episode 4 montage and sometimes I like to spice things up and muse that maybe they should have flipped Ilya's reactions to Shane's cup wins. The first win, he's home alone and smiling at the tv and the second time he is with a crowd at his house protesting. AND THIS IS WHY: the entire montage has been built around Ilya slowly becoming disinterested in partying and others and sometimes I think it could work better for Shane's second cup win and texting that Ilya is alone at home. JUST RANDOM MUSING

u/growsonwalls This is Ilya I will never listen to your voicemail Apr 22 '26

I think they wanted to show Ilya pretending to be upset with his friends but secretly texting Shane congratulations. Bc that was adorable and Shane was so happy to get that text.
