so this is my take on why last scene feels disjointed
Director explicitly made the choice of BJ noticing how much guilt LJ was feeling regarding Jamie, and causing father son fight. While coming back home, BJ noticed LJ was crying. Just extremely sad and shattered.
I think BJ was really really worried in that moment that LJ would resign and leave.
Give, BJ has been established as a genius, adept at reading people... I THINK, BJ DECIDED to cut some slack.... and in order to make LJ happy... fast tracked reconciliation
Leaving door open Not resisting or putting too much into explaining why he has been distant
Notice, he doesn't hug back LJ when LJ hugs him thanking him for remembering everything.
************ This NC feels disjointed only from BJ perspective and not at all from LJ's perspective.
BJ is actually not there to explain and have an emotional release. He planned the night to make sure he can distract LJ and get him to feel less guilt and less sad.
*************** Now, from the lens the last scene fits and makes you wonder if director is actually this intelligent or are we making up stuff. Ideally, ep 9 opening should give us a few more moments from this scene. ************** given how 1st two NCs were b'fully crafted to convey exact emotions. i think this scene was also crafted on purpose to make audience feel weird/awkward about it
You’re saying the scene was “too simple” and didn’t fit the characters, but you’re looking at it through…
yup...
oh the losers who are going about faking the story and painting the picture of people are here for p*rn and revealing more about themselves than anyone else
at the bare minimum, we know their aptitude doesn't have depth to understand, discuss, dissect and actually appreciate an art for what it is.. an artform is driven by its interpretation

this time jamie
i wonder who else is going to hospital for LJ to make out the next time
"i love you but can't admit and will make gooey eyes at you"
"While I keep running into you in all your hotness"
LJ's arc is to trust BJ and move beyond believing what others think
BJ's arc is to also learn to trust people... and give up this contract business which is a manifestation of his disdain of humans
and if you don't... then you are the dumb one
infact u watch BL only for softcore..
so yea.. we can't fix your perviness

BJ to LJ: What do you think i will do with those photos
ep 8
LJ finding out................and he was right
j***king off
it appears in every BL, specially domundi
not the zaddy jane
i think 1st two NCs are done WONDERFULLY WELL
and 6th episode had slow sad instrumental of colorblind playing.. fitted the scene so well..
Ep 2- you felt with LJ that it was his 1st time. Same restlessness, nervousness and first time excitment
Ep 6 - you absolutely feel the sadness, break up, desire.. the NC was so meaningful
Ep 8 - is supposed to give the emotional catharsis and bring that yearning to its peak and then release... BUT ALAS
like buddy daddy sorta thing
LJ sleeps with BJ only when LJ is super stressed out!
BJ, he is still using you.. only for dopamine.. lol
************
1st time - he was really stressed about the exam
2nd time - he was accusing BJ of murder
3rd time - he was accusing himself for murdering Jamie
4th time - he may be like, i am feeling nausea P'Jane. Come help me. I need Serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin, and basically all hormonal pump up
and then he is the one who gets served everything just lying ...
puns are just intentional by the writer/director
