He knows Alan, and he flirts with Marianne, saying he’ll buy raffle tickets from her if she dances with him. As she and Karen rejoin the group, another friend, Pat, walks up. It’s a new side of Marianne as she dances, fitting in with the others. Karen notices this and points it out to Marianne, who pretends she doesn’t know the cause of Connell’s attention. Even as Connell heads to the bar and Marianne hits the dance floor, he keeps looking at her. Marianne breaks her own gaze to ask one of the girls, Karen, to dance with her. Connell and his friends arrive shortly after, and the moment he sees Marianne he can’t keep his eyes off her. Once she arrives at the club, the other girls notice her new look and compliment her. Trying not to let their attitudes shake her confidence (though it seems they already have), she goes to get her taxi. Alan is worried she’ll embarrass him in front of his friends. Her mother and brother note this change in her appearance, and neither have positive things to say. She looks gorgeous and is wearing makeup, clearly trying to change her image.
The episode opens with Marianne getting ready for a fundraiser for the Debs dance.
Read on to find out what happened in Normal People Episode 3. We also get some tough love from Lorraine in an excellent scene, and Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal both deliver heartbreaking work. The past few episodes have made their love feel like a cozy little secret world, but that illusion is shattered as both realize too late that they want more from each other (and the reality of what Connell is asking of Marianne is fully shown). In this episode, Connell and Marianne’s deceptions backfire, and both must live with the consequences.
