Loose Ends (Girls 2x01 It's About Time Episode Review)

Hanna and her girl friends (with their respective boys) are finally back!

Girls season 2 opened up where we were left of last year. And it was good.

Let's do it one girl at a time, shall we?:

• Hanna - still being under Adam's wings for being the reason why he was hit by a truck last season. Adam broke his leg, thereby making Hanna his personal servant (giving her orders and such). But unbeknownst to him, Hanna is already dating someone - played by Community's Donald Glover (and the first black recurring character for the show). Moreover, Hanna's already roommates with her former guy-turned-gay roommate Elijah. 
• Marnie - still boyfriend-less. On Elijah and Hanna's soiree, Marnie saw Charlie - her former boyfriend - with his new girl Audrey, but things are not as smooth as Charlie likes it to be on his new relationship. During the last minutes of the episode, Marnie went to Charlie's loft to sleep beside him because she's lonely after awkwardly making out with Elijah who's also confused about his status in life. Furthermore, she was laid off from her job.
• Soshana - devirginized. After loosing her V Card to Ray, Sosh felt weird (and even unfriended on Facebook) her paramour Ray on Hanna's soiree. But after Ray confronted her, they patch their awkwardness by making out.
• Jessa - happily married with Thomas. She only made a small cameo this episode but she looked happy with her new husband.

Over all, the episode was a whole lotta fun. It was not the best Girls episode, but it's a strong start for the season. It opened up the loose ends from last season and it tried to tie the knots for this premiere - although not completely. There is consistency in every scene and we did not feel lost on the entire episode. Plus, the opening scene where Elijah and Hanna just woke up cuddling in bed reminds me of the opening scene in the pilot episode but instead of Elijah, it was Marnie. 

The sex scene between Elijah and Marnie was very very awkward and uncomfortable to watch. But I guess that was a good thing since the two did not finish it and felt that it's wrong. And I am quite disappointed that Marnie did not show her boobs. (Still Allison Williams? Lena Dunham is doing it)

The scene where Adam and Hanna fought on the his's apartment was the hilight for me. It was excellent, yet we're not sure if Adam is being serious on telling Hanna that he needs her.
