So far, Kate is one of my favorite characters this season. She’s so fake, and I love it she tries so hard to be a people pleaser it’s sooooo pathetic, but it’s working. She’s a master of her craft, effortlessly playing into both Jaclyn and Laurie bullshit

With Jaclyn, she mirrors her fake sympathy. It’s not judgment, it’s concern. It’s not gossip, it’s worry. Every comment has that “love her tho, poor thing” vibe and Jaclyn eats it up.

For a second, Jaclyn clocks her and she fumbles, hard, but recovers quickly. Once she starts to pick herself back up again Jaclyn gives her an almost knowing look. She knows exactly what kind of woman Kate is. She knows what games women like Kate play. But who cares? Out of the two, Kate is the closest to Jaclyn’s level. She’s a great follower, always in sync, Jaclyn is also a fake bitch so she allows herself to indulge into some gossip maybe because Kate has been on her dick since day one and Jaclyn loves the attention and validation. Or maybe because she’s just a gossip. Either way, both women know exactly what they’re doing.

With Laurie, though there is a different vibe. Kate drops the fake sympathy and gets very judgy. But in a smug way. condescending. She agrees that Jaclyns a narcissist, mocks her vanity, still tries to soften it with “She’s still gorgeous, though.”

But to she doesn’t mean it. Just like with Jaclyn, she adapts. When she hears Laurie didn’t get the promotion, it’s “Oh Laurie, nooo,” but when she plants doubts about Jaclyn’s marriage, it’s “She’s fronting as someone perfect.”. And the main thing I noticed is she’s never the aggressor!!!! Jaclyn and Laurie’s clearly have some strange unresolved tension that drives the drama in the group but sweet old Kate gets to just sit in the middle, soaking it all in. She might be fakest hoe how there but hell at least no one’s talking shit about her. And that’s the real goal. She’s just as insecure as Laurie but just as vain as Jaclyn iams I think at the end of the day she needs to be in control of how people see her.

That’s why Victoria’s indifference throws her off.

“A whole weekend?! Am I not memorable?”

It’s not just the general rudeness that bothers her It’s like the fact that Victoria didn’t even try to remember her. It’s like the general nonchalant carelessness of the interaction. It’s like when you run into someone on the street. recognize them but can’t place them so you fake remembering them out of politeness. But Victoria doesn’t even bother. She just doesn’t care (because she’s geeked tf out in those damn pills!!!!) And if Kate isn’t memorable, why should she be respected? To Vic she’s just a strange so who cares. That’s a blow. And Kate just can’t fathom it.

After Victoria doesn’t even attempt to follow ghe social script, the “Oh my god, yes! How are you?!”. She just sits there fuckin smiling, waiting for Kate to walk away. And Kate can’t accept that, can’t let it sit. It has to be a mistake it’s just too disrespectful not to be. So she just has to straight up ask. Which adds another level of awkwardness and embarrassment.

Look at Kate’s face and Victoria’s face. Like this hoe fr don’t care.

And the worst part is that Victoria most like did remember Kate pretty well but just didn’t care enough to acknowledge it. That thought eats at her for a second. Am I not memorable? Is just another way of asking “am i really that forgettable?” It’s just so specific I love it.

I have so many thoughts on Victoria too her calling actresses prostitutes, the way she laughs at her freak son’s jokes like he’s the funniest man alive but anyway I’ll talk about that another day.

I just love Kate. Jaclyn and Laurie are headed towards a confrontation, that’s obvious I just wonder where Kate will land in the fallout. I really hope she doesn’t just fade into the background shes such a messy bitch I love her!!!

Laurie and Jaclyn in 3x03 when they're beginning to realize how Kate voted.

Please tell me I'm not the only who immediately thought of this meme.

[weirdero]

Kate casually telling Lauri about the Valentin thing in such a chill almost joking manner just to be surprised that Lauri wasn’t up for some casual gossip and was actually deeply hurt by Jaclyn’s actions and Kate couldn’t even grasp that? Come on I know she’s smarter than this. Why would she be so oblivious?
