Besties, slip into your cutest sundresses and spritz on that “I’m the main character” perfume, because Season 3 Episode 5 of The Summer I Turned Pretty just served us a piping hot plate of slow-burn romance—with a side of peaches 🍑. And I’m not talking about the fruit bowl from your kitchen; I’m talking about the moment…
THE MOMENT—where Conrad Fisher, king of broody stares and heart-wrenching silences, casually wipes peach juice off Belly’s face with his crisp white t-shirt. Oh, honey. The way his shirt brushed her cheek? The soft smirk that lingered? The unspoken “I’ve missed you” in his eyes? If I were Belly, I’d have melted faster than ice cream on Cousins Beach sand. It wasn’t just a wipe; it was an emotional exfoliation, scrubbing away layers of tension and hurt, revealing the chemistry we’ve been starving for since Season 1.
And let’s talk about the elephant in the beach house—Team Conrad is finally, unapologetically, back in the lead. Even some of the die-hard Jeremiah stans seem to be low-key shipping Belly and Conny baby again. I’m seeing the tweets, babes. You can’t fool me. The shared glances, the tiny touches, the subtle smiles—it’s like watching two magnets remember they’re made for each other. Jeremiah? Sweet guy. But this episode? It’s Conrad’s game.
The pacing was immaculate—soft nostalgia mixed with just enough longing to make you want to yell at your screen. You can literally feel the writers teasing us, dangling that perfect summer romance just out of reach. But after the peach scene? My hopes are soaring higher than a seagull with a French fry.
If this trajectory continues, by the finale, Team Conrad might not just win—they might own the beach house deed. Episode 5 was romance, redemption, and just the right amount of drama.
TL;DR: Peaches were eaten, hearts were shaken, and baby, summer is officially getting interesting. Toodles!
