Subtext: Although Eskild doesn’t finish his last “because”, he’s not-so-subtly pulling down his underwear, implying that he’s seducing all of Noora’s friends.



Culture: The Yakuza here is not an East Asian crime syndicate, but just another bus group centered around Handels, another high school. In episode 1 we learned that William beat up a second-year student from that school, and this student was probably in, or friends with, the Yakuza bus group.



Blink and you miss it: One of the guys crossing the schoolyard, talking about the Yakuza, is Jakob Fort, who appeared as Simen in the first season of the tv-show Blank, also by NRK.



Blink and you miss it: Everyone in the schoolyard is talking about the Yakuza, except this girl who has bigger problems.



Subtext: Eva interrupts Vilde, because she really doesn’t want to talk about the fact that Jonas went down on some other girl, because it makes her jealous.



Blink and you miss it: Vilde mentions the cabin trip, which coincidentally is going to take up the entirety of the next episode.



Subtext: Being sober and talking to drunk people is the worst, and Noora has absolutely had it waiting for drunk Eva to remember who William went on a date with.



Blink and you miss it: The guy Eva was sleeping with on the couch has a face, and here he is!



Subtext: Drunk Eva tries to overcompensate for being jealous of Jonas and Isabel, so she’s practically egging him on.



Blink and you miss it: Noora hands Eva her coat and purse, and Eva looks like she has no idea what to do with them.



Subtext: Dark and robust, just like William, wink wink nudge nudge. This is probably the worst subtle pick-up line in the entire series.



Subtext: William repeats what Noora said when she laid into him for being mean to Vilde back in season 1, which means that that moment meant a whole lot more to him, than to her.
