The name of this third episode is really interesting. In chess, doubled pawns happen when two pawns occupy the same file. Essentially, these two pawns have a harder time trying to make a smart move because their relative positions to each other pose a severe weakness. Throughout this episode, I was keen to see the development of the relationship between Beth and her mother. As Beth’s career becomes more prolific, Beth and her mom start to live a better life. It’s interesting because they’re both using each other: Beth is using her mom to have a steady home life and her mom is using Beth to make money off her prodigal skills.  It’s clear that the relationship between the two is based on mutual benefits and not based on mutual love for each other. I’m eager to see how this relationship plays out in the future: is it a self-destructive bond or one that deepens over their mutual loneliness?
