Being Mary Jane S2E7 "Not So Crazy"


This episode is titled "Let's Go Crazy" but it wasn't at all crazy! The morning after her decision to get impregnated by David, Mary Jane is already rethinking her choices. She wants David to go back with his first baby mother. Only if she is pregnant does she want to be with him. David, naturally doesn't understand this, since he wants to be with her baby or no baby, and he can't quite understand MJ's special kind of logic so he complies. She then goes on a cleaning spree, which includes pouring out her liquor, taking pregnancy tests and re buying said liquor.

Later on Mary Jane has a guest on her show that prompts her to try and find herself. This leads her to apologizing to Niecy. Neicy at this point doesn't live for her aunts approval anymore, which i was relieved to see. Mary Jane for all her good intentions, can be so overwhelming at times. On a sidenote: Niecy looked so nice when she was trying on those clothes. Kudos to BET for showing a big girl like that!


She reaches out to those she's wronged and tries to apologize, which also included her father. One of the other person she calls is Neisha "a friend" who's last name she doesn't even know. She tells her that she is trying to change her life around. She admits that she slept with David, but that she wasn't able to get pregnant. So that means she doesn't want to be with him, no matter how much she "loves him with all her heart". She hasn't told David yet, and in a heat of the moment she texts him she is not pregnant. WOW! Really Bitch? This is the so called love of her life, but ok?



Again, I really don't understand. David loves Mary Jane; Mary Jane loves David. David ex is pregnant but they don't love each other, but they are willing to stay with each other for the baby. But David confesses his love and have sex with Mary Jane repeatedly. Mary Jane does the same. But yet, they can't be together. Does this make any sense?? It can't be this complicated. 

Moving On: David is with MJ's brother, Paul Jr. talking over the deal he wants him to sponsor. He gets MJ's text and immediately says he can't do a the deal with him. Paul is very upset and tells David off for playing with his sisters emotions, but really they keep screwing each other over so yea...!

At work Mary Jane is pushing to change her brand at work, and wants to do more Black focused stories. She brings her ideas to one of the heads of the network. This whole conversation is kinda confusing to me though. But yea network isn't really going for it.

Back home and comfortable with her decisions of self realization. She takes out her weave and has to call Niecy to do her hair after her hair dresser cancels late. They have a nice conversation over wine.

Through out the episode Mary Jane has been playing Eykah Badu, I think as a way to empower her decisions. At the end she plays "Pills N' Potions", and dances to her decisions.
