Transcript

00:00Before the start of The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3,

00:03Jenny Han revealed that she had made some major changes from the books for the show.

00:07At the same time, she also promised fans that the series would still stay true to the heart of the original story.

00:13After watching the latest episode, it feels clear that those changes are bigger than many expected.

00:19Belly has moved away from Conrad and started to get closer to Benito,

00:23while her connection with Jeremiah has almost completely faded.

00:27She has even stepped into a relationship with Benito,

00:30with him inviting her to Mexico to meet his grandmother.

00:33On the other side, Jeremiah and Conrad finally reunited,

00:37and Jeremiah even encouraged his brother to fight for Belly.

00:41At first, Belly did not reply to Conrad's heartfelt letters,

00:44but after moving into her own new apartment, she finally wrote back with her new address.

00:49Even then, the story ended on a confusing note.

00:52Has Belly truly moved on from Conrad, or is she still holding on somewhere deep inside?

00:58With her romance with Benito growing, it is unclear whether it will turn into something serious,

01:04or if everything will change once Conrad lands in Paris.

01:08With only one more episode to go, the big question remains.

01:12Will we still get the happy ending of Belly choosing Conrad like in the books,

01:15or has Jenny Han decided to rewrite the ending completely?

01:19Keep on watching till the end to know about what will be happening in the season finale.

01:23Episode 10 was all about Belly living her new life in Paris.

01:27She did not fly back home for Thanksgiving or Christmas,

01:30and instead chose to stay in Paris, juggling working in a bar and studying online.

01:35Belly made new friends and created a different kind of life for herself,

01:38far away from Cousins Beach and the drama she left behind.

01:42But being in Paris also gave her the chance to escape from Conrad and Jeremiah,

01:47at least for a little while.

01:48This is where the show introduced Benito in a much bigger way.

01:52In the books, Benito is nothing more than a funny mention in Conrad's letters,

01:56just a made-up figure he jokes about.

01:59In the show, Benito is now a real person,

02:02a charming Parisian who has entered Belly's world in a very real way.

02:05Their connection started slowly, but after Taylor pushed Belly to open herself up again,

02:11Belly allowed herself to take a step toward Benito.

02:14Their romance grew stronger, and in a huge change from the books,

02:18Belly even slept with Benito.

02:20This was a massive change, because in the books,

02:23Belly never had sex with anyone until the end.

02:26Bringing Benito into the love triangle is something I never expected to happen,

02:31and it changes the entire feel of Belly's story.

02:33Even though Benito has taken a big role,

02:36the writers have not abandoned Conrad's side of the story.

02:40Just like in the books, Conrad started writing Belly letters.

02:43The show even included the iconic care package from the books,

02:47which Conrad sends to Belly.

02:49The only difference was that in the books,

02:50Belly never moved on with anyone else during this stage,

02:53but here in the show, she is falling deeper into Benito's life,

02:57while Conrad is silently waiting and hoping.

03:00Belly did not write back to Conrad at first,

03:02but once she took the lease on her own apartment and changed her address,

03:06she finally sent him a short postcard to let him know.

03:09It was not much, but it was a sign that she had not completely shut the door on him.

03:14Jeremiah also had a big part in episode 10,

03:16and his arc is slowly finding closure.

03:19After the broken wedding,

03:21Jeremiah carried a lot of anger toward everyone,

03:24but in the episode, he spent some time with Laurel and then Denise.

03:27She gave him advice about forgiveness,

03:30not just for others, but also for himself.

03:33This moment opened Jeremiah's heart and helped him to finally face everything.

03:38Later, Jeremiah reunited with Conrad in one of the most emotional scenes of the season.

03:43The two brothers sat down and finally spoke about everything that happened,

03:46about how they both loved Belly and how that love came between them.

03:51Afterward, Conrad confessed that he had been writing letters to Belly,

03:55and Jeremiah did not get angry.

03:57Instead, he encouraged Conrad to keep going,

04:00telling him not to waste the chance to fight for her.

04:03This scene was important because it gave both brothers peace,

04:06and it also made it clear that Jeremiah is letting Belly go.

04:09I can even see a small spark now between Jeremiah and Denise,

04:13who has been supporting him.

04:15It would not be surprising if Denise ends up being his date,

04:18when Belly and Conrad eventually get married.

04:21Just like in the books where Jeremiah shows up at their wedding with someone by his side.

04:25By the end of the episode, Conrad was ready to take a big step.

04:29He booked a flight to Paris,

04:31determined to see Belly and tell her how he really feels.

04:34Meanwhile, Belly prepared for her birthday weekend,

04:37saying she wanted a fresh new look for the summer to the hairdresser.

04:41It's possible Belly is getting her hair cut shorter,

04:43as a symbol of a new stage in her life.

04:46The moment she steps out with her new look,

04:48she could come face to face with Conrad,

04:50who has traveled across the ocean just for her.

04:53This would be the perfect dramatic start to the finale,

04:56and it matches the kind of emotional reunion Jenny Han is known for writing.

05:00But things are not simple anymore,

05:02because Benito is now a big part of Belly's life.

05:04She is not single, like she was in the books during this stage.

05:09In the show, she is already in a relationship with Benito.

05:12So, when Conrad shows up, Belly will be torn.

05:16On one side, she has Benito, who has been kind and steady,

05:20someone who gave her comfort when she was far from home.

05:23On the other side, she has Conrad,

05:25the boy she has always loved deep down,

05:28the one she keeps running from but can never forget.

05:30When Conrad tells her he still loves her,

05:34Belly will likely be confused.

05:36At first, she might reject him,

05:38because she is already with Benito.

05:40But those memories of her history with Conrad

05:42will begin to rise again.

05:44No matter how much she tries to bury her feelings,

05:47she has always been tied to Conrad.

05:49The finale will likely be full of emotional drama,

05:52as Belly wrestles with her feelings.

05:54Benito may seem like the safe choice,

05:56but he does not have the same history or depth with Belly as Conrad does.

06:01Conrad has been by her side since childhood,

06:03and even when things went wrong, their bond never truly broke.

06:07If Benito's character had not been stretched this far,

06:10it might have been easier for Belly and Conrad to find their way back together.

06:13But with Benito now a serious love interest,

06:16the writers have created more conflict and more heartbreak for Belly to work through

06:20before she can make her final choice.

06:22In the end, though,

06:23it seems almost certain that Belly will choose Conrad.

06:26Jenny Han may have changed many things,

06:28but the heart of the story has always been about Belly

06:31and Conrad finding their way back to each other.

06:34Belly may initially push Conrad away in Paris,

06:37but slowly she will realize that she cannot let him go.

06:40The finale might even show a time jump,

06:42with both of them returning home together and beginning a new chapter.

06:46And then, just like in the books,

06:48we may finally see them at their wedding.

06:50There could be a touching scene of Belly walking down the aisle

06:53in the same wedding dress she had originally bought for her wedding with Jeremiah.

06:57But this time, she is wearing it for Conrad.

07:00Jeremiah will be there too, not as the heartbroken ex,

07:03but as a supportive brother, possibly with Denise by his side as his date.

07:08We once thought Jeremiah's wedding date might be Redbird,

07:11because of hints about his attraction to boys.

07:13But that has not been explored much in the show.

07:15Instead, the small spark with Denise in episode 10 feels more likely to carry forward.

07:20Jenny Han may have changed many details,

07:23but it is hard to imagine her changing the core of the love story.

07:27Belly and Conrad are the endgame,

07:29and season 3's finale looks ready to give us the happy ending they have been waiting for.

07:34What do you think about Belly and Benito's surprising love triangle?

07:37Do you think she will stay with Benito,

07:39or will Conrad finally win her heart in the season finale?

07:43We want to hear your thoughts.
