When the sisters get to Joyces reception, though, she doesnt see her professor.
For instance, Joyce says that Shelly married Lenny right out of high school, but thats not true.
Like any of us care about whatever shes working on about recontextualizing the Bronte sisters.
Anyway, after Joyce stomps off, she goes and does whatever while leaving Shelly with Doreen.
Shelly tears into her sister even more, telling her, This isnt about you for once.
Im sick of you paying zero attention to anyone but Joyce Prigger.
I let go of my dreams to take care of you, Shelly says.
You got to be whoever you wanted.
Why cant it be my turn?
When next we see the sisters, its morning and Joyce has brought some peacemaking scones.
Really, this whole episode ofMinxwas about finding time for yourself and discovering who you really are.
(He actuallyisntgetting that job, but more on that in a second.)
Instead, hes following his passions and getting into long-haul trucking.
Doug seems taken aback, and we learn later in the car that he had no idea.
Youll find love someday, good buddy.
Thats weird vibes all around.
