Sugar (2024): Starry-Eyed - Season 1 - Episode 4 - RECAP
Sugar (2024) has turn out to be a great drama, the story about a family in fact not just John looking for famous film maker missing granddaughter, its more about the family itself and what it starting to look like a mafia of power, most of they do what ever they want at any time with only the old man looking like the straight and correct one but until now is he really the good guy? this kind of story tend to have a lot of ghost in the closet but lets pretend he is.
When ever I think Olivia's case is starting to make sense something even more rotten pops up like he entire life and her surrounding was a screw up, from her family to other people that she know everyone is into something fishy except her grandfather who is in fact the only one giving a shit about her missing. This time around the story lead to a bigger scandal that until now remain hidden, Davy gets involve into a sexual harassment case that the last words of the victim was that she didn't care anymore and was not going to get involve but all of the sudden some one tip out the media, saying it was the actress but I got a feeling it was not her or someone gave her that small push to convince her to accuse him after so long.

John has not been doing well and its very noticeable, Ruby has seen it a couple of times in person and have been insisting that John visits Dr. Vickers that at first didn't took form any any samples or gave him any pills, the reason I mention this is because for some reason Ruby and the organization they both part of work with Stallings the same guy that is working with Davy and John already met he just don't know all the others that are in bed with Stallings, so John gets the Dr. to check on him and seems fine although he is clearly not. In the meantime Davy visits John's mom who was fully aware of their visit and feed them some bull shit that they bought, John has also bee pushing Ruby to get him more information about Stallings but she keeps giving him the run around trying to evade the topic.
Melanie who we already know is on bed with Bernie, Davy's father, she visits John to talk more about Olivia's case and she remember Olivia having an argument or agitated conversation with a girl but was not clear about what, I don't think it was coincidence but going around asking for Olivia with her picture where Melanie last time saw her a local who is a Melanie fan did tell them about this girl who was friends with Olivia, happen to be the same girl of the argument that morning, I mean its a drama series that's how things happen on this kind of reality.
Her name is Taylor, from the "I love this bitch .." video, Olivia love to post videos about her things, what she felt or doing but she never posted about Taylor problem, why? Taylor is the actress been harassed and tormented by Olivias brother Davy, same Davy who is after John trying to figure out who he is, same Davy that with his father are trying to cover up something but we don't know yet, Davy blackmail Taylor with a sex tape, unless they don't keep fucking he would upload it, Taylor went to Olivia but she could not do anything and same for the cops until one day Taylor got this call from Davy's lawyer to sing an NDA and offering some money to what she said fuck off, based on this story Olivia might have something dark on her and its not the innocent girl his grandfather though she was, a girl with drug problems but from his stand point a good person so why she would not backup Taylor story?
John still do not know Melanie is with Bernie but eventually he will find out, information is been held from him since the organization he is part of works with Stallings and Ruby has been covering up all the data that might trace back to him, Stallings works with Davy and Bernie probably doing their cover ups for every time they fuck up. Point been John is pushing Melanie buttons trying to get her to talk, tell him exactly what she is hiding from him, after they talk to Taylor brought her home and said "it sounds like he (Bernie) have been involved in all this Davy business" for what ever reason it been money or love she is with Bernie but must be really upsetting and disappointing knowing that this person who in this case her lover covers up this shitty attitude from his son, we are not sure yet if he did or not but that was John trap to get her upset although she did not talk in front of him.
John wants to talk to Jonathan Siegel, most likely to tell him whats going on with his son and grandson, the type of shit they are in, for sure nothing that will surprise him but also nothing that he is worry about, he already told John he doesn't care for anything else in life other than his granddaughter well been, they met at the cinema, there was a moving playing in honor of Jonathan and that's when news strike, all media blogs start posting about how Davy was involve in this scandal that took by surprise Jonathan, was probably the nail in the coffin he could not take and suffers a heart attack.
Everything is so inter connected that I don't know yet where is this going to stop, Bernie and Davy work with Stallings, Ruby and the secret organization that John is part of works with Stallings, seems like he is sleeping with the enemy and yet none of this points to what really happen with Olivia, all we know is that she killed the man on the trunk of her car but nothing else from that point when Melanie last time saw her we have no clue but I think the one that can still point John to Olivia is Melanie but she is keeping information from him probably because it would hurt Bernie, its very likely that she loves Bernie more than Olivia, interesting drama and this episode is a solid 7.5/10, I think Melanie push Taylor to accuse Davy after all this time.
