Okay, lets discuss details: The table is for four, unfitting. It is located right by the stairs, an unpleasant seating as everyone will run past them, not a very romantic setting. No decoration on the table, too.

Eating a burger in a fine(r) restaurant might be an american thing, I don’t know. What about the wine?

She is wearing a dark evening gown, overdressed and showing too much.

The room is empty, either they are too early or the restaurant has other disadvantages we do not know about, yet.

She is going to present him her parents…(Omnibus music)

Unlikely, doubt they’d be ordering food before the parents arrived in that case.

Not unlikely that someone will sit down anyway though.

Or maybe you’re just reading way too much into it 😉

Nothing Tim presents us comes without a specific purpose – so I don’t think we’re reading too much into it – we might just read it wrong 🙂

I’d say the room is empty because it’s more work otherwise for something that doesn’t affect the story.

We can’t see her lower half, so that could just be a top with spaghetti straps and jeans. Seen women where this type of tops plenty of times. The rest is just about drawing only what is necessary for the plot. The extra seats are probably for someone to join in the scene later.

Stupid gaslighting See You Next Tuesday. Come on, Ethan, put the pieces together – This is ANYTHING but salvageable.

Always curious about Her inner monologue while all this is going on: ‘Curses! Foiled again! Have to be faster on the uptake.’ ‘Good for him, able to make decisions now.’ ‘Is he jumpy for some reason? Suspicious…’

I think the only thought would be, “oh, you’ll pay for that later”

I will be so angry with everyone and myself if she turns out to indeed be just a controlling, insecure woman who genuinely likes ethan but doesn´t know how to do that whole “lets be a couple” thing.

I agree – but it’s unlikely. Often after a major row an abusive partner will lovebomb and return to the “honeymoon period” of softened, seemingly changed behaviour, which serves consciously or otherwise to hook their victim back in. I think that’s what this was.
