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?
01:18Keep 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,
01:39far 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.
02:06Their connection started slowly,
02:07but after Taylor pushed Belly to open herself up again,
02:11Belly allowed herself to take a step toward Benito.
02:14Their romance grew stronger,
02:15and in a huge change from the books,
02:18Belly even slept with Benito.
02:20This was a massive change,
02:22because in the books, Belly 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.
02:34Even 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,
02:55she 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,
03:05she finally sent him a short postcard to let him know.
03:09It was not much,
03:10but 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,
03:25he spent some time with Laurel and then Denise.
03:28She gave him advice about forgiveness,
03:30not just for others,
03:31but also for himself.
03:32This moment opened Jeremiah's heart
03:35and helped him to finally face everything.
03:38Later,
03:38Jeremiah reunited with Conrad
03:40in one of the most emotional scenes of the season.
03:43The two brothers sat down
03:44and finally spoke about everything that happened,
03:47about how they both loved Belly
03:48and how that love came between them.
03:51Afterward,
03:52Conrad confessed that he had been writing letters to Belly
03:54and Jeremiah did not get angry.
03:57Instead,
03:58he encouraged Conrad to keep going,
04:00telling him not to waste the chance to fight for her.
04:03This scene was important
04:04because it gave both brothers peace,
04:06and it also made it clear
04:07that Jeremiah is letting Belly go.
04:10I can even see a small spark now
04:11between Jeremiah and Denise,
04:13who has been supporting him.
04:15It would not be surprising
04:16if Denise ends up being his date
04:18when Belly and Conrad eventually get married.
04:21Just like in the books
04:22where Jeremiah shows up at their wedding
04:24with someone by his side.
04:25By the end of the episode,
04:27Conrad was ready to take a big step.
04:29He booked a flight to Paris,
04:31determined to see Belly
04:32and tell her how he really feels.
04:34Meanwhile,
04:35Belly prepared for her birthday weekend,
04:37saying she wanted a fresh new look
04:39for 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
04:58Jenny Han is known for writing.
05:00But things are not simple anymore
05:02because Benito is now a big part of Belly's life.
05:05She is not single,
05:06like she was in the books during this stage.
05:09In the show,
05:10she is already in a relationship with Benito.
05:12So when Conrad shows up,
05:14Belly will be torn.
05:16On one side,
05:17she has Benito,
05:18who has been kind and steady,
05:20someone who gave her comfort
05:21when she was far from home.
05:23On the other side,
05:24she has Conrad,
05:25the boy she has always loved deep down,
05:28the one she keeps running from
05:29but can never forget.
05:31When Conrad tells her he still loves her,
05:34Belly will likely be confused.
05:36At first,
05:36she might reject him
05:37because 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
05:58or depth with Belly as Conrad does.
06:01Conrad has been by her side since childhood,
06:03and even when things went wrong,
06:05their 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
06:11to find their way back together.
06:13But with Benito now a serious love interest,
06:16the writers have created more conflict
06:17and 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
06:29has 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
06:38that she cannot let him go.
06:40The finale might even show a time jump,
06:42with both of them returning home together
06:44and 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
06:52of Belly walking down the aisle
06:53in the same wedding dress
06:54she had originally bought
06:56for her wedding with Jeremiah.
06:57But this time,
06:58she is wearing it for Conrad.
07:00Jeremiah will be there too,
07:02not as the heartbroken ex,
07:03but as a supportive brother,
07:05possibly with Denise by his side as his date.
07:08We once thought Jeremiah's wedding date
07:09might be Redbird
07:10because of hints about his attraction to boys,
07:13but that has not been explored much in the show.
07:16Instead, the small spark with Denise in episode 10
07:19feels more likely to carry forward.
07:21Jenny Han may have changed many details,
07:23but it is hard to imagine
07:24her changing the core of the love story.
07:27Belly and Conrad are the end game,
07:29and season three's finale looks ready
07:31to give us the happy ending
07:32they have been waiting for.
07:34What do you think about Belly and Benito's
07:35surprising love triangle?
07:37Do you think she will stay with Benito,
07:39or will Conrad finally win her heart
07:41in the season finale?
