Belly (Lola Tung) and Conrad (Christopher Briney) of The Summer I Turned Pretty finally got their happy ending in the season 3 finale episode. Host Reshma Gopaldas and journalist Jason Pham discuss the finale, Belly and Conrad's long running will they/won't they - but of course they will- relationship, and what might happen in the newly announced The Summer I Turned Pretty movie.
We break down Jeremiah's kitchen romance and chef future, Laurel's absence in the finale, Conrad and Belly's love scene which has been years in the making. Taylor Swift's two songs, "Dress" and "Out of the Woods (Taylor's Version)," that had starring roles in the finale, alongside Phoebe Bridgers' "Scott Street." Plus, what we missed seeing in the finale, what didn't work for us, (ahem Belly's bob haircut), and why we think Jeremiah should be in a relationship with someone else.
We discuss Belly's Paris life, and how her one long day in Paris with Conrad included The Louvre, The Eiffel Tour, and so many iconic French spots, plus the dinner with her friends, and the ups and downs of their relationship, leading up to the big reunion moment, the short break-up, and then Belly's run to the train station to finally tell Conrad she loves him. The book ending shows Belly and Conrad getting married, but the television finale did not.
From Taylor and Steven, to Jeremiah and Denise, to Conrad and Belly, the finale wrapped up all the stories, but the movie will most likely feature Belly and Conrad's wedding, and other relationship milestones. We discuss what storyline possibilities could take place in the movie, and Jason suggests Belly and Conrad's house in Cousins might burn down. Plus, what he think Belly and Conrad will name their first child.
The Summer I Turned Pretty is created by Jenny Han and is streaming now on Prime Video, and stars: Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, Gavin Casalegno, Rain Spencer, Sean Kaufman, Rachel Blanchard, Tom Everett Scott, Colin Ferguson and Jackie Chung.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
