I know it's probably meant that way but I've always thought in my head that she's talking to Boo and this is the first time I've heard someone else say that too! Of course things are open for different interpretations and I feel like both options make sense within the whole story.

I think they were more interested in the expressions and reaction on her face. I think, because I'm watching with their commentary in mind(so watching from their pov), for the first time I was concentrating more on reading her face then the entire scene.

i know the kneel bit is iconic but the thing from this episode that i always think about (besides hot priest perceiving us) is her telling boo that she doesn’t know what to do with all her love for her mother now that she’s gone. just a wonderfully written episode all in all.

Yeah such a gut punch, really brings home yet another reason why Fleabag is so deeply deeply troubled when we meet her. Not bad enough that she lost her mom and shortly after her best friend (which she also feels immense guilt for), but the fact that she "gave that love" to Boo only to then lose her TOO - just so so heartbreaking.

He definitely has a dominance kink. Remember when he asked her if she wanted a drink and then said “Don’t move” and the look he gives her when he turns around with the glasses and she didn’t, in fact, move? He was having a massive crisis of faith because of his feelings for her.

**spoilers, spoilers if you haven't finished the season don't read this** this is such an interesting comment, because someone on the fleabag reddit did a "scholarly kink analysis" of the hot priest-fleabag dynamic, and presented the theory that although they have a ton of chemistry and clearly love each other, they wouldn't have worked as a couple because they're both brats (hot priest being a "brat trying to be dominant"). she points to fleabag's date with the douche lawyer guy who is more of a dominant person (he says something like "don't drink that" and she goes "i'm going to anyway") and ends up having the most orgasms of her life with him. hot priest is putting on a dominant front, but he's actually a brat and playing out that dynamic with God - "it's the kind of relationship where one person tells the other how to dress." he drinks and swears and does other things as part of that dynamic, but eventually always goes back to God. link to reddit post: www.reddit.com/r/Fleabag/comments/1d7ktrj/nonexpert_kink_analysis_of_why_fleabag_hot_priest/?

To me, this also has to do with the lack of control that Fleabag was talking about as well. He has that same thing, but he wants to do something different with it. Whereas she would love for someone to control the narrative for her, so she doesn't have to recognize the actions, he wants to control the situation. But both of them in reality need the opposite. Fleabag needs to take more control of her own life without avoiding all of the hard interactions that do happen in her life, and he needs to surrender some control of his life to realize not only what is important but not to spiral down the fact that he can't control everything. They both would have been a horrible couple because of this because they enable the worst parts of each other in that way. Fleabag did many things she didn't want to do just to hang out with him, and not only was he questioning everything because he felt so comfortable about his life but now there was her. But she gave him everything he didn't need which was control over the situation and dynamic. This is what makes the ending harder, if they were for a second different people who weren't damaged in the way that they clearly were they may have loved eachother. Or maybe they would've never loved eachother at all.

@@kczkmmne I always read it as he gets peace following God because, like Fleabag, all of his instincts led him in the wrong direction. He puts himself in a servile position as a Priest because his natural inclinations got him hurt or hurt other people. This show has so many layers and is open to so many interpretations, that’s why it’s so brilliant I think.

Hot Priest sensing Fleabag talking to her ‘friends’/us is one of my favorite moments of the series. Kinda bummed it wasn’t really acknowledged. 😕🤷🏾‍♂️

10:52 this is the saddest scene for me, I always cry because boo was just so lovely and we don’t get to see her much, and this part where she says she’ll have the love she had for her mother and now fleabag doesn’t have either of them just breaks me

the priest gave in to her when she finally opened up about her fears and whatnot. before he was doing so good at resisting and that was when she won't open up to him about her fears and had her walls up to him, and we were the only people who knew her inner thoughts. also she didn't even look at us when she was confessing to the priest.

The 4th-wall breaking in this show is amazing. Lots of shows do it, but with this one, I feel like I'm really going along with my friend Fleabag. She's there on the TV and she's talking directly to me. And its weird that this priest can sense our little connection.

My favorite part about this episode is when the stepmother tells flea back she looks gorgeous. It's probably the only time thé stepmother paid fleabag a genuine compliment, but of course it's probably the worst thing she could have said at the moment

we are her bestfriend, like boo. remember when she went to the therapist and she was asked if she has friends, she said she has lots of them and she looked at us and winked. and i believe we came after boo had gone... she never looks at us in the flashbacks with boo.

0:20 IHS, it's the greek letters Iota, Heta and Sigma, or in Latin, J, E and S, for Jesus (they weren't lazy, these were secret codes to show you were a christian during roman persecution).

He honestly overstepped majorly in that scene and I feel like no one mentions that. Yeah, it's hot or whatnot, but she's not Fleabag in that moment. She's a parishioner in a moment of crisis, and he is her priest. It is such a breach of trust, and that's so important in the story, and the only reenactors who I've seen actually realise that and mention it were priests themselves. Fleabag herself doesn't realise it, because to her he's the person, but in the situation they're in he should be a priest first and foremost. His own character arc is not just about breaching celibacy, it's also about this scene, and him breaking such an important boundary.

They both were, he was drunk and in conflict between his feelings for her and his duty as a priest.( SPOILERS FOR ANYONE WHO HASN'T SEEN THE REST) I definitely think he was in the wrong for it though, which is a big reason why I think he ultimately decides to end it. They were both two broken people that weren't ready and were making toxic, borderline abusive mistakes.

I have a controversial opinion on the kneel scene. Don't get me wrong, I really like the hot priest but it is so fucked up that he took advantage of Fleabag emotional vulnerability at the end. She was finally open up with him and he sexualized her like everyone else in her life does

@Juliana.v23

Күн бұрын

I know, this scene is so divisive for this reason. I genuinely don't think he meant to take advantage of her or that didn't care about what she said, I think it's the contrary. We see him struggling, drinking, almost having a crisis of faith, and trying hard to resist his feelings for Fleabag because if he acts on it, he could lose the peace he has found in God, hence the “here’s to peace, and to those who get in the way of it”. When Fleabag finally opens up to him, it's almost like he could not resist anymore, he had to kiss her. But I agree, it was not the right time, this was the first time she expressed how she felt and explicitly asked for help, she needed a friend... but at the end of the day, I don't think he is a bad person, just like Fleabag, just a flawed human being.
