[percysaidnever]

ted lasso s3e11 oh dear god

i’m not mentally stable enough to fully process so initial thoughts!!

I truly believe Phil Dunster filmed to boot room scene with the sole intention of making Brett Goldstein break character

THE PARALLELS from the very beginning of Ted being happy go lucky and loved while Rebecca is angst!! to now Ted’s mom being happy and loved while Ted is angst is truly amazing

plz rebecca getting in the team bus bc nora yelled at her about her private jet usage i love

SAM AND REBECCA TURNING TO EACH OTHER DURING THE END OF YOUVE GOT MAIL OMG

Beard’s nickname for Teds mom!!

Rebecca excited to know Teds mom!!

Mae dropping free therapy everywhere she goes?? love that for her!!

the boys showing up at Taste of Athens was so …? bc last time they were like fuck nate!! at the west ham game but now their like happy and healthy like the lovable himbos they are

this was not an episode about mother/son relationships and truly processing trauma, this was an episode about kebabs

the way Jade likes the things about Nate she doesn’t understand!!! (thinking 60 pgs is crazy but still picking up the pen to edit!!)

Roy and Keelee trying to steal follow Jamie is the funniest thing, especially when she’s farting between cars and Roy’s just on the sidewalk

he! went! to! see! his! mom!!!

i am very happy that Jamie has one canonically fantastic parent and fun baking stepdad!

also the crowd cheering him as he leaves truly made me tear up

the duality of the Roy Keelee posters in Jamie’s room

Ted and his mom having a real talk truly showing how much Ted has grown, especially with how he started off kinda anti-therapy to who he is now

question: what actually is meatloaf? I have no idea????

i know the whole thing is gonna end with Ted going back to Kansas and that’s why we have the whole, admittedly important for Ted, Henry part but I still want him to stay so badly and it feels right for the character to stay and bring Henry to Richmond

lmao the nose mask bc of Dani

Van Damme slayed so hard omg absolute king i love you baby keep saving those goals!

THE COACH BEARD LORE OMG

truly explains his dedication to Ted and why he was so angry with Nate, who hurt his friends and betrayed Teds trust the same way he did with the car

i know he’s but but for a second there i thought Jamie’s father was dead!?!

and i love Higgins and his refusal to move!! he’s so sweet!!

[badwolfgirl13]

The craziest thing I've ever seen on television was Roy and Keeley following Jamie home ending up in his childhood bedroom where there's posters of both of them on the wall and then not have them end up as a throuple

[troublegoblin]

autistic jamie tartt my beloved

[second-hand-heaven]

Literally this episode had everything:

Beard backstory, Forehead touching, depression, 60 page draft apology letters, Mums, Jamie getting so many hugs, Formation of WARM (Women Against Rupert Manion), Wild callbacks and also trick plays on those callbacks, VAN DAMME, more bumbercatch lore, the heaviest of heavy ot3 setup I've felt in decades, long hair Roy Kent, forgiveness, and kebabs

[basedtater]

Chapters: 1/1

Summary:

“I don’t want to see him again,” he says, hoping that leading with the part he knows Ted probably won’t have an issue with might make the next bit less difficult, “and I know you didn’t say that I should, but I also don’t… I tried, and I don’t want to forgive him neither. And that one you did say I should do, and I know you said it was for me and not for him, but it still feels like- like saying nothing he did mattered."

Jamie takes Ted's advice to heart - he forgives. Or he tries to. But it doesn't make things better. It doesn't free him from anything, and the text he sent his father makes everything so much worse, even though it hasn't been answered yet. When Jamie reaches his breaking point, he goes through a series of three conversations, seeking help determining whether something is wrong with him, whether it's okay to not forgive, and whether it's okay to decide that he's done trying.

Ted Lasso S3E11 Thoughts- Mom City

Why do i feel like the players wanting Nate back unanimously is a dream sequence… it seems too ‘perfect’ to be true- never mind, I guess

The blue moon in this episode (like in the beard episode w Man City) ties in to its ‘dream-like’ atmosphere, rare events, and Man City (the blue moon chant).

“And the key symbol there, that makes the whole thing beep until Beard comes over and fixes it for me.”- Ted. Aww i love references to Ted and Beard’s relationship!

“That goal is a lie. It should be retracted from the records. I apologize to everyone, especially the kids.”- Jamie

"You can keep those well manicured mitts of yours wherever you’d like!”- Ted’s Mom. Haha the realization dawning on Rebecca’s face as she said that!

“Did Teddy ever tell you about the time he ate a candy bar made of poop?” Reference to a throwaway line from another episode.. Ted Lasso never misses with the details!!

Trent trying to score a sneaky little interview with Ted’s mom.. I respect the hustle

“Trent, your hair is fabulous. It really is. It’s just stylin’.” - Ted’s Mom, also EVERYONE EVER

Poor Van Damme living in abject fear of Dani Rojas to the point that he now wears a mask…

“I think it’s more important to be safe than to look cool.”- Jamie. Roy heard that and was like… thats strange.. that’s suspicious…

“Are you fucking dying or some shit?”- Roy to Jamie after he started crying

"No, no no. I’m just tired. But I can’t.. sleep and I can’t eat. And i wash me hair, but I don’t use any conditioner anymore cause I- Like, what’s the fucking point?” Wow so this episode is trying to emotionally wreck me..

I am crying please this is so sad someone help himmmmm

“If you bring that Judas back, I will burn this place to the fucking ground!” Straight to arson, Beard being reasonable as always.

“Man hands on misery to man. It deepens like a coastal shelf. Get out as early as you can, and don’t have any kids yourself.”- Mae, poetically

THE CONTRAST BETWEEN EVERYONE AT THE MOVIE CRYING AND JAMIE SITTING THERE STONE FACED AFTER KNOWING WHAT HE IS FEELING…

Roy speechless staring at Jamie and his mom is sending meee

“This guy on twitter, he kept saying that it was blonde, but it’s fucking walnut mist mate.”- Jamie. “Yeah obviously. He's done a lovely job, it’s dead natural.”- Jamie's Mom.

I will be analyzing Jamie’s room for ages… the Roy Kent poster..Roy’s HAIR

Not Jamie having posters of BOTH Roy and Keeley… this revelation will send many people into a frenzy!!

“Van damn he’s been good today!” Surprised it took this long to use that pun- unless it was in an earlier episode?

“Personally, I’m fine with him playing hurt, I played hurt all the time.”- Roy, about Jamie. “You can’t walk up stairs.”- Beard

What Happened to Jamie’s dad?? Did i forget a major plot point from a previous episode?

Damn didn’t expect Beard’s backstory but makes sense for his character and the story

The scene between Ted and his mom was really good but all I could focus on was Ted leaving his apartment door open that whole time..

Not the abrupt cliffhanger ending.. i mean we all know what Ted was gonna say.. but still….

I mean the next episode is titled ‘So Long, Farewell’, so I guess it’s not really a cliffhanger…

[trentcrimmisgay]

Just remembered that Shrinking is going to go up against Ted Lasso at the Emmys no doubt. Which means a Jason versus Jason showdown (my pick is Sudeikis after Ted S3E11) but it also means that Harrison Ford will be nominated against all our footballers. And he killed it in that show.

Funny that Brett who worked on both will also likely be nominated against Harrison Ford. What I really would love to see is a Phil Dunster nom and win though, I can’t lie

[tiger-mcqueen]

So my very short recap of Ted Lasso S3E11 is: Rebecca munching on a kebab while Ted's mom talks about the time he was arrested for stealing a car. Jade munching on a kebab while Beard tells Nate about the time he stole Ted's car. And just before Beard went to Nate's to tell him that story, Ted was whistling...Islands in the Stream, sung by Dolly Parton and Kenny Fucking Rogers.

It's either endgame (and by endgame, I mean I think it's very last second aka Sleepless in Seattle where they just hold hands) or we are being deliberately baited.

[metataxy]

Ted Lasso S3E11

Dies.  This hit me so hard on so many levels. 

Spoilers -->

SCREAMS.  YES, Jamie.  Yes, you get into a nice positive thruple with Roy and Keeley.  This is all I ever wanted for you baby boy <3

(Highly doubts it will actually happen, but hope springs eternal)

THE POSTERS.  MY GAWD.  I mean, we knew about the Roy Kent poster all this time, but the Keeley one?  And this is TEENAGE Jamie’s room.  He’d never even MET either of them when he’d acquired these posters.  Keeley’s is probably there for comedic effect, but like, I can’t help wondering if Roy’s poster being right up beside that of the girl Jamie was and probably still IS in love with doesn’t suggest a similar level of attraction.

Le sigh.  

Other great things:

(1)

I have no idea who this actor is, but I’m in love with their character.  Danny Rojas cheerfully waving at Van Dam after breaking the dude’s nose.  TY.

(2) Beard’s back story.  Holy fuck.  This show isn’t about religion, but as someone unpleasantly acquainted with Bible Belt Christianity and WASPs, I can’t look at Ted Lasso and think, this man is the EXACT ideal of what a Christian should be.  He’s invested in forgiveness, he’s non-judgemental, and patient, and kind, and selfless.  Those verses in Corinthians about ‘love keeps no record of wrongs... always hopes, always perserveres?’  That’s this fucking character.  

(3) Again, Jamie/Roy dynamic.  Jamie crying in Roy’s arms.  Fuck.  That is so adorable and sexy and I love Jamie so much.  Yes, sweetie.  You let that big strong man hold you close <3

 (4) Jamie being a Mama’s boy.  Didn’t think about it, totally makes sense.

(5) Trent and Mama Lasso.  

(6) The random octogenarian cheerfully doing the ‘walk of shame’ in the morning, except ‘walk of shame’ would seem to be a misnomer, because why should anyone be ashamed to apparently have great sex and look that awesome at her age?
