‘Grown-ish’ 3×12 Review: “Water On Water On Water”

Hello Grown-ish fans! Welcome back, this episode marks the return of Indigo, Zoey’s crazy client from hell, who actually turns out to be pretty chill, more on that later. We hope they keep Indigo around for a while, because she is hilarious. Meanwhile, Jazz and Doug are still apart and are miserable without each other.

Ana and Javi take center stage again as they try and work out what celibacy means to them, when really they both want to have sex with one another. It’s very hard, especially once Ana gets baptized AGAIN. We have a lot to talk about in this weeks episode of Grown-ish, “Water On Water On Water”.

She Works Hard For The Money

Zoey’s infamous client Indigo was back for a visit this week and giving Zoey hell. We keep forgetting that Zoey is not in school so she just has all of this time to work and fly around the United States. We get a brief phone chat with her an Nomi! We miss Nomi! Hey writers, when is Nomi coming back? Honestly, this plotline with Zoey standing up for herself is getting kinda old. We know she has talent. We know she is witty and serves up hard truths, so why do the writers keep making her so meek with these celebrities? We don’t get it.

Zoey’s latest client Indigo runs all over Zoey at first even calling her a “bitch ass” which made us LOL. BUT deep down, Indigo likes Zoey’s style and trusts her, so she decided to test Zoey to see if she was real or just a yes girl. News Flash: Zoey passed with flying colors!

We think the writers are still trying to figure out what to do with Viveck this season. Although Viveck finally has a real girlfriend, he has barely had any plot lines so far, which the writers need to fix. Aaron and Doug are like Dwayne Wayne and Ron from the hit 90’s sitcom A Different World. We really like when these two interact and we especially like the dynamic now that Aaron has a boo and Doug is single.

Speaking of single, Jazz is really missing her ex Doug, almost to the point where she is shutting out the rest of the world. Jazz won’t really leave her house except to go to class, and she studies all the time, which, okay yes, that’s great for her GPA, but not her heart. Come on Jazz, snap out of it! You’re supposed to be going to the Olympic trials this summer, get your head in the game.

What Would Jesus Do

Oh Ana, we admire your willingness to go all in with Javi and his celibacy and we are proud of you for getting baptized – you are doing everything for the right reasons. BUT, dammit girl, if you don’t want to have sex with Javi then don’t invite him into your bed for a sleepover and think nothing is gonna happen! We mean…come on girl! We have all been down the road of lets just “sleep” and then boom, you’re doing the naked pretzel. Which is what happened and these two broke their celibacy vows – plus the sex was horrible! LMAO! That is the worst Ana! You can’t fix that, and Javi is cute too, so please figure out what the issue is.

We knew this would happen, not the bad sex, but the having sex part. We knew Ana would be the first to break. We figured Javi would be all mad at her or blame her for corrupting him. In our mind, it played out like a soap opera so we were more than surprised when both these fools tried to have sex again and again to prove they were good in bed. That was hilarious.

In the end, all they really needed to have great sex was break up, and then have make up sex on the couch. Problem solved. Make up sex is the best. Ana and Javi then promptly renewed their celibacy vows. We guess because now they know what they are waiting for? Who cares? They didn’t break up, they prayed about it and moved on. Hopefully Javi wore a condom or Ana is on the pill because we cannot take another pregnancy storyline. We will be keeping our fingers crosses for Jazz and Doug to find their way back to each other as well. Maybe they just need Javi and Ana to pray over them.
