Beautifully written and casted
In Loot Season 2 Episode 3, Molly is excited to see Nicholas in his upcoming play, "Vengeance Falls," and invites his parents to attend as a surprise. Nicholas is embarrassed by his conservative parents' support and tries to explain that he has a great relationship with them. Molly believes that if Nicholas puts in the work like she does, he could have a more open relationship with them. To prove to Nicholas that she can be alone, Molly gives him and the rest of the staff the day off. Sofia tries to get Howard to finish a presentation for the "Space for Everyone" project, but is distracted when he receives a notification of a Taylor Swift concert. Howard tries to prove that Sofia is a Swiftie, but she denies it. He even makes a presentation to prove Sofia is a fan, showing that she asked off work the same day as the concert. Sofia admits she is a Swiftie and that she made up her great aunt to be taken seriously. Howard understands and promises not to tell anyone, and they fangirl together over theories about the music. Back at Molly's place, the billionaire is doing a good job at being alone, but she gets into bed and the smoke alarm starts beeping. After an intense battle with it, she fails to take out its batteries and decides to put it in her panic room, but it locks behind her, leaving her trapped inside. In "Vengeance Falls," Nicholas, who is alerted when the panic room locks, helps Molly out of her room. Molly is embarrassed about her inability to do anything alone, but Nicholas encourages her. She apologizes for giving him advice about his parents, but he admits she wasn't entirely wrong. The episode ends with Nicholas showing up at his parents' place, asking them out for dinner and sharing a commercial he booked. This episode is the most wittily written and delivered of Loot so far, allowing it to function more simply as a classic sitcom episode with likable characters who go through funny escapades and learn life lessons. Ron Funches is endearing as Howard, while Maya Rudolph's fight against her smoke detector is both absurd and relatable. The ending between Nicholas and his parents is sweet and shows that, despite Molly's unreasonable expectations, small steps can be made to build bridges.
