The penultimate episode ofForeversfirst season opens with Oscar reading a letter from June.
We dont really need to see it to know what it says: June left with Kase for Oceanside.
It certainly speaks to the state of her marriage that June couldnt have that conversation in person.
He acts as if nothings changed.
The reaction we see from Matt is more on par with what we might have expected from Oscar.
But Oscar declines this, too.
Youll find someone else and be happy.
Immediately afterward, Oscar tells Matt that, moving forward, hed like to keep things private.
In fact, hes gonna gofindher.
The whole scene is a little predictable, and more than a little bit numbing.
Meanwhile, June and Kase arrive at Oceanside.
Its a mansion, with a number of folks ballroom dancing inside.
And its new to Kase.
And that is really all that it needs to be.
This is, I guess, where the emotional weight ofForevershould probably reside.
Junes insistence on staying in Oceanside, and away from Oscar, shouldmeanmore than it does.
But, at least to one viewer, there wasnt much to root for.
As a viewer, I just couldnt care.
So while the changes that befell them were certainly unfortunate,Foreverdidnt give us much tofightfor between them.
Nevertheless, in the end, Oscar makes his way to Oceanside without assistance from any of the Currents.
And, eventually, despite everything, Oscar arrives at the mansion housing all of the Oceanside residents.
In the midst of a party, in the mansion by the coast, he looks absolutely appalled.
And his disgust is no more palpable than when he finally runs into June.
Face-to-face, Junes shocked to see him standing there, in person.
And the temptation for somethingnew?
And Junes feelings of being constrained?
