This could work.īut then at the big party celebrating Empirical’s 100th anniversary, Liza learns that Charles has been testing her - thanks to Quinn he knows that Kelsey has been sending Inkubator around and neither she nor Liza have informed him yet, but he’s been waiting to see how long, if ever, it would take Liza to come clean. (Maggie could not care less and it is perfect - everyone is over it!) When Kelsey tells Liza about secretly sending Inkubator out to VCs and deciding to leave Empirical and Liza tells her that she’s back with Charles and loves him and the company and could never leave, she seems genuinely fulfilled by this life choice.
Liza seems truly excited to tell Maggie that she and Charles are back on. Yet still, these two sexy giraffes go through the motions for two-thirds of the episode: They’re happy in bed together and promise no more lies from here on out. Liza and Charles are not long for this world (we’ll always have that cupcake scene from season four, I guess).
And by turning Charles into The Worst this season, that writing was highlighted and in bold.
#Watch younger season 1 episode 12 full
(Although imagine how much more fun this season would’ve been with a newlywed Diana! What could’ve been!) The season has been both infuriating and pointless at times, with characters either lacking any kind of development or simply making decisions that feel so antithetical to who we’ve been led to believe they are, and much of that is on full display in this series finale.īy giving Liza and Charles their big romantic reunion with one episode still to go, the writing was on the wall, really. I’d like to blame it all on the lack of Diana Trout - the Trout will be Younger’s greatest legacy, right? - but the problems are much bigger than anything our One True Statement Necklace Queen could fix. What hell hath season seven of Younger wrought, you ask? I don’t even know where to begin with how disappointing this season and this finale episode have been.
