A manipulative lawyer, a pink apron, and a side of emotionally confusing abs.
Welcome to High-End Player, where legal ethics go to die and thirst wins every objection.
The ML is 80% red flag, 20% shirtless domestic fantasy. He lies, manipulates, and steamrolls consent like it’s part of his cross-examination strategy. And yet… when he shows up cooking in a pink apron, suddenly we’re like, “maybe he deserves rights?”
The FL brings some solid braincell energy to the courtroom, and she almost gets to run the narrative. She’s sharp, capable, and occasionally makes excellent choices… when she’s not being emotionally blackmailed. Points for proposing, though. That was iconic.
The twist? These two are a real-life couple, and baby, it shows. Every touch is too natural. Every kiss is suspiciously practiced. This isn’t acting; this is third-wheeling a relationship with plot.
Is it problematic? Absolutely. Is it addictive? Also yes.
Do you want to rewatch the exercise band scene? Look, I’m not judging.
