Luke Ducharme

Most of the episode is in flashback when Darby was 15 years of age and gone to boarding school to get away from her parents.

There she meets her first crush Luke Ducharme who kisses her and he then later rejects her.

Darby ends up blurting out that she has cancer to a girl that Luke has also been with. The news spreads through school and Darby gets attention and sympathy but the principal realises that this is not true.

The episode is framed with the older Darby seeing a therapist, wanting to understand why her relationships fail.

You can sense the older Darby is uncomfortable with her therapist. It is also an Anna Kendrick lite episode.

On its own, this looks like a filler episode although it gives some background to Darby's teenage years. Still she is not the only teenager to be rejected.
