Oh, Poisonous Love. You had us screaming at our screens again this week. We haven’t been this loud since Loyal Pin dropped. Pat, honey — you’ve got game. This episode was your power play, and we’re standing up with full respect (and a golf clap). Prem, you didn’t stand a chance — and Jayna, you are killing it as Pat.
We’ve read the book, and you’re not just playing the part — you’re elevating her into the sapphic chaos queen she was meant to be. The writers have also made some smart switches from the novel that work. These changes don’t just modernize the story — they deepen it. So let’s break down what had us squealing, standing, and cheesin’ through the entire episode.

Breakfast of Seduction
We pick up right where we left off. Prem’s holed up in her room, wrestling with her feelings after Pat shook something loose inside her — something she struggling with. Girl, we get it. Realizing you might be into women — especially when it challenges everything you thought you knew — can be heavy.
Prem sits on her bed replaying every recent moment with Pat before finally pulling the covers over her head like a true emotional mess. But then morning hits — and Pat’s charm goes from flirty to full-on rom-com mode. She leaves a breakfast tray complete with heart-shaped shrimp and a sweet note for the Doc.
Prem feels the handwriting is familiar but brushes it off. That smile when she takes a bite? Adorable. Genuine. Our sapphic hearts melted right there.
Boundaries, Babes & Bold Moves
Of course, this is Thai GL — so cue the angst. Prem sees a news clip bashing Pat, but Pat doesn’t take the hits lying down. She storms into Nam’s house, all fire and fury, demanding answers.
Let’s talk about this change: in the book, Pat’s friendship with Nam drags on way too long. She keeps her around a bit — we hated that. But here? This Pat cuts her off clean. Boundaries. Dignity. Power. Standing ovation, ma’am.
And Prem? She surprises us too. When she overhears gossip about Pat at the hospital, she actually defends her. Go off, Doc! Of course, Bow catches her and wants to know why — and Prem, flustered and floundering, makes up a lame excuse and scurries back to work.
Meanwhile, chaos follows: Thawat crashes into the scene (literally), and who’s there to shut him down? Our girl Pat, armed with video receipts of him and Nam. She tells him to back off or she’ll send it to Prem’s parents. Legend behavior.
Then Pat takes it one step further — corners the Doc in the hallway, pins her to the wall (HELLO), and asks her out to dinner. Prem declines and walks away, but we all know she’s rattled.
Clubs, Confessions & Fake Drunk Genius
Later that night, Prem hits the club with Tan and Bow. Bow, ever the icon, suggests maybe the Doc try dating women to get her mind off men. We see you, sis. When Bow points out a cute girl across the room, Prem immediately imagines Pat instead.
And just when she’s trying to escape her thoughts in the restroom — fate (and maybe Pat’s scheming) strikes again. Pat stumbles out drunk and right into her arms. She clings to Prem, head resting on her chest, murmuring just enough to “accidentally” reveal she’s the one who took care of the Doc that night.
Prem’s stunned, speechless… and then Pat walks away. Except — plot twist — she’s not drunk at all. Girl was acting. Full-on performance art. She even stops to tell the random woman flirting with Prem that the Doc’s taken. Bold. She’s claiming her, and we are living for it.
Truth, Proof & Sushi Dates
The next morning, Prem’s had enough. She shows up at Pat’s apartment demanding answers. Pat smirks and tells her to come inside if she really wants to know — and boom, Prem’s in her lair. Pat admits she’s the one who cared for her, but Prem storms out, refusing to believe it.
Later, we see Prem comparing Pat’s breakfast note handwriting to the note from that night — and yep, it’s the same. Before she can process it, Pat’s parents arrive for a check-up. They’re instantly iconic, asking if Pat’s being a pain. (They know their daughter.)
That night, we get the dinner scene. Sushi, tension, and the slowest burn imaginable. Pat tells Prem to dig in, and the Doc’s smile gives her away for a second before she snaps back into her stoic routine. Prem tries to “research” Pat with polite questions, but Pat sees through her immediately.
Then comes the bombshell: Pat calls it a date. Prem denies it. Pat leans in and proves her wrong. The kiss lands — not once, but multiple times. It’s soft, hungry, and real. And just as Pat deepens it, Prem bites her tongue (literally) to stop her.
Pat pulls back, gasping: “Why’d you bite my tongue?”. And that’s when it happens — Prem blurts out Pat’s name for the very first time. The second it slips, Pat’s grins. “You called me Pat? Does that mean we’re close?”
The Doc is instantly flustered, cheeks flushed, and words failing her. She stammers something about being full and makes a hasty exit — practically fleeing the scene.
Girl, we lost it. Screamed. Yelled. Applauded. Prem, you are so gone.
Suitcases, Silk & Sapphic Comedy
Pat’s not done. Within the hour she shows up at Prem’s door with a suitcase, claiming her AC and water are out. Classic U-Haul lesbian energy, and we are here for it.
Cue the iconic nightgown scene. Pat tries to seduce Prem by modeling a series of outfits straight out of a GL fanfic. Prem’s reactions are gold — equal parts flustered and fascinated. Ginny’s expressions are flawless, Jayna looks stunning, and together they deliver sapphic chaos at its finest.
We even catch Prem smiling to herself when Pat’s not looking — her walls are crumbling.
When Pat starts doubting her progress, she turns to Ticha for advice. And bestie of the year delivers wisdom: “Prem’s confused. Be patient.” Bless that woman.
Jealousy, Missteps & Mixed Signals
Prem catches up with Bow and Sita, doing her own “research” on how they knew they liked women. Their answers mirror exactly what she’s feeling for Pat. Just as she’s starting to process things, a new gossip clip starts circulating.
Pat’s being accused of sleeping with a married actor and turning her condo into a “love nest.” The story is everywhere, and Prem can’t escape it. She scrolls through social media as she rides the elevator up to her apartment, irritation building — and that’s when she sees Pat in the hallway with Ticha.
From where Prem’s standing, it looks bad. Pat’s adjusting Ticha’s top (because, girl, no bra), and to an already flustered Doc, it looks like flirting. Jealousy spikes before logic can intervene.
Prem storms into her apartment, and Pat runs after her, desperate to explain. Inside, Pat insists Ticha is just a friend — nothing more. But Prem’s emotions are a tornado. Pat calls her out for getting jealous, and that realization scares Prem. Rather than face it, she lashes out and kicks Pat out.
We get a quiet, bittersweet beat afterward — both of them leaning against opposite sides of the door, hearts heavy. It’s simple. It’s tender. It hurts in the best way.
Heels, Heartbeats & Hard Truths
The next morning, Pat waits at the hospital, hoping for a chance to talk. But when Prem spots her, panic wins again. The Doc ducks away, hiding before Pat can catch her — classic avoidance, and painfully relatable.
Later, as Prem drives off, we get that cinematic gut punch: Pat exiting the hospital, spotting her car, and taking off running — in heels and a dress. Girl, give Jayna her flowers for that performance. She’s chasing love and looking flawless doing it.
Prem doesn’t stop, but you can feel the ache radiating between them — tension, regret, and longing all rolled into one gorgeously shot sequence. But then comes the kicker: Pat slows, gasping for breath, hand clutching her chest as the music turns ominous. Our hearts stopped right there.
Cut to Prem back at her condo, sitting on her bed, mind spinning. Not even two minutes later, Pat walks in. Prem starts to tell her to leave, but Pat’s voice trembling with emotion, saying she just came to return the necklace.
What follows is a raw, sapphic confrontation we live for. Pat challenges Prem gently but firmly — asking why she’d let her get so close if there weren’t feelings involved. The Doc stiffens, cornered by her own truth.
Then Pat says it: If you truly don’t like me, I’ll walk away.
She places the necklace in Prem’s hand and turns toward the door. The silence stretches — heavy, heartbreaking. And just as Pat’s about to leave, Prem reaches out, tear in her eye, and pulls her back in for a kiss.
And that, dear sapphics, is when the room explodes.
That Love Scene
Let’s take a moment — because that love scene wasn’t just fan service; it was storytelling done right. It felt earned. Every slow glance, every hand that finally dared to touch — it all carried the weight of everything these two have fought, denied, and finally surrendered to.
It was intimate, passionate, and refreshingly real. No over-editing, no awkward fade-outs, no forced camera pans trying to tone it down. Just two women letting emotion lead. Every kiss felt deliberate. Every touch, honest.
The chemistry between Ginny and Jayna (#GinJ) was electric yet deeply emotional — you could feel the care and the acceptance radiating through the scene. It wasn’t just physical connection; it was a breakthrough.
Final Thoughts: Sweet, Spicy & Sapphic
Poisonous Love continues to outdo itself. The changes from the novel are smart, the pacing is sharper, and the emotional depth keeps growing. This series has officially become our weekly serotonin shot.
Ginny and Jayna (#GinJ) are delivering on every front — acting, chemistry, comedy, chaos. We’ve rewatched EP4 multiple times already, and honestly? We’re not done. This episode gave us everything: sweet gestures, fiery glances, unfiltered emotion, and a top-notch sapphic payoffs in Thai GL.
Poisonous Love, you’re our sweet story with a side of fiery sapphic chaos — and we can’t put you down.
What did you think, sapphic squad? Are you still replaying that kiss scene too?
