Alfie Is A Spy And Here's Why..........

I can't stand Alfie. His character is smarmy. You can't quite believe if he's being truthful about what he says. I love how he conveniently shows up in her French class. Yup, he's a spy alright.

I think Camille's mother is the one who actually hired Alfie to spy on Emily and Gabriel and his "assignment" was to lure Emily away from Gabriel so that he would go back to Camille.

At the nightclub it looked like he was innocently asking Gabriel all of those questions about his relationship or stance towards Emily BUT he was really just to pump him for information so that he could let the mother know whether or not Gabriel and Emily were really just friends. His mission seems to be complete and so that is why he "suddenly" has to go back home. That info lead Camille to feel confident enough that Gabriel wasn't into Emily anymore....

Having said that, we all know they love each other....

You might be onto something. I remember when Alfie first met Emily, he didn’t like her then suddenly he does??? He also stated to Emily several times that he doesn’t like Paris so why would he stay there?

I just can't stomach Alfie. He's annoying as heck.

I'm almost finished season 3. Been taking my time because it goes by so fast so I'm purposely not binging watching it. There needs to be more episodes or make longer ones.

Anyhow, I'm a bit disappointed that I've gotten all the way to episode 7 and they're finally showing Gabriel and Emily alone together. Season 2 ended off with them both yearning for each other and season 3 starts off like they're nothing more than distant pals.

I saw the entire season 3 and hang tight. There are a few surprises in store. 🥰
