Episode Review
In this episode, both Emily and Alfie, as well as Emily and Madeline, made amends very quickly and easily. Apparently, in the world of Emily in Paris, minor infractions like taking your boyfriend for granted and double-timing your employers are dealt with more quickly and without consequence.
This episode is no exception to the show's heavy use of stereotypes. Madeline wears a bright dress and bright yellow coat while using a giant plastic bottle. In addition, she can be seen openly using a breast pump at work while casually walking around. In contrast to Sylvie's cold French elegance, she definitely takes on a touch of extreme "nasty American" this season.
In this episode, Emily stands up for Alfie, which leads to their reconciliation. As we've seen in previous seasons, Emily has a history of lying and cheating on men while harboring feelings for Gabriel. This season is no exception. This wouldn't be a problem if Emily was portrayed as a gray figure. Instead, he is portrayed as a virtuous character while doing so, which sends the wrong message and ultimately normalizes him.
Camille is an odd character with little to no depth. For example, when Emily urges him to be honest with her, he responds with a comment about Emily being secretly intimate with Gabriel. It would have been a reasonable reaction if Camille hadn't made up with Emily after she promised she wouldn't, but she said it was pretty weird with what she did.
