When we encounter Lucy this season, she’s on a mission to put her friendships first, an intentional decision by creator and showrunner Meaghan Oppenheimer, in response to the audience being understandably upset with Lucy’s actions last season. (For a refresher: She ditched her friends for him, straight up lied to them about their relationship, and slept with her friend’s boyfriend.) While Oppenheimer wanted to continue Lucy’s “flawed journey,” she tells Refinery29, “I did want her to try to redeem herself a little bit, and I wanted to see a little bit more of her heart and her love for her friends.”
