Euphoria Season 2 Episode 3 Recap + Reactions | Cassie has never, ever been happier

In this episode of Previously On, Jillian and her husband Tyler are breaking down Euphoria Season 2 Episode 3 “Ruminations: Big & Little Bullies.” The episode that gave us some of the most iconic Euphoria memes and Cassie’s most unhinged moment yet, the bathroom monologue!

This episode is absolutely jam-packed with chaos, secrets, and questionable choices, so in honor of Maddy's iconic line we’re counting down our Top 5 “Bitch, You Better Be Joking” Moments from Episode 3. From Rue taking a literal suitcase full of drugs from Laurie (and lying to everyone in her life about it) to the increasingly confusing dynamic between Rue, Jules, and Elliot that has us wondering if this friend group is actually a throuple, every storyline feels like it’s heading toward disaster. We also dive into Lexi’s bold move to write her life story into a school play, Cassie’s descent into full obsession mode over Nate, and Cal’s jaw-dropping confession to Fez that leaves us asking… "what kind of weird father-son shit is going on here bro?"

Plus, Tyler shares his takes on the episode’s chaotic humor, unforgettable side moments, and the many bits that made this episode feel both wildly entertaining and deeply unsettling at the same time. Between Rue burning bridges, Cassie losing herself, and Lexi finally stepping into the spotlight, this episode proves that every character is moving closer to a breaking point.

We're dropping a pod recapping every single episode of Euphoria leading up to the April 12th premiere, and then we’ll recap each episode of Season 3 weekly. Follow the pod so you don’t miss an episode! #euphoria #zendaya #sydneysweeney #hbo
