Interested to see where they take Jack, because while she is definitely a parallel of Rupert, I don’t think she’s going to be toxic. I think the parallel is to show how two people with similar tendencies diverge; with Rupert being abusive and Jack not, but both of them showing similar typically toxic traits. I think this because

After Keeley’s conversation w Rebecca, she actually takes her advice and confronts Jack

Jack acknowledges it, apologizes + explains, Keeley gives the ring back (which parallels Rebecca taking the car) and then Keeley buys her dinner

the things Jack is love bombing Keeley with are personal. Ex. She decorates her office with daisies after hearing that Keeley loves daisies. This opposed to Rupert buying the most expensive cars for both Rebecca and Nate seems to symbolize that while Jack is doing the same thing as Rupert, her intentions are not the same.

#jack danvers #keeley jones #keeley x jack #ted lasso #Basically i think people are misinterpreting that interaction as framing Jack as toxic or settling them up for divorce #But I dont think so. I think if Jack and Keeley were being set up as an abusive relationship the episode wouldn’t have ended with Keeley #Paying their bill while Jack stares at her lovingly #And I don’t think theyd have had that whole conversation where Jack admits that she is coming on too strong #And promises to dial it back and let Keeley do stuff for her too #And I don’t think Keeley would’ve handed her the ring
