![]() However, if Netflix goes off the rails, they could make it due to one of the girls confessing they have feelings for the other. If the show follows the book, the separation of the pair would be due to a mistake Tully made. The show ends with a huge rift in between Tully and Kate they are no longer speaking to each other, and this left fans reeling and confused, ready for the second season already. ![]() Would it actually be so bad if the show broke from the book and had them fall in love with each other? Would their lives drastically change that much? It’s definitely food for thought, and Netflix is no stranger to making their shows as gay as possible. Although it’s clear that no matter what, Kate and Tully are number one in each other’s lives. Kate is in love with her ex-husband, and Tully goes through many different relationships (including falling in love) with men. In the book, Kate and Tully do not end up together and remain straight women. But… would it be so bad if they did get together? Thus, furthering the troupe that women cannot be friends without being lesbians. However, the way that the show is written also paints the pair as so insanely close that it’s almost not normal, which makes fan somewhat eager to see Kate and Tully actually fall in love with each other. Through every trial of life, these two are together, completely inseparable to the point where Kate’s family considers Tully a second daughter. Likewise, Tully always supports Kate and is there for her in a way that no one else could ever be. It was a risk to do something like that, publicly, and you can see it on Kate’s face as they walk away she was impressed with Tully’s innate confidence and love. When the girls are made fun of for being lesbians, they don’t deny it - instead Tully flips the bird and acts as if she is dating Kate. You see this theme throughout the show, as Kate’s older brother is closeted (and remains that way well into adulthood) due to the fear of being harassed and even killed. Per the time period, aka the 80s’, it’s clear that the bullying that Kate and Tully face is lesbian-targeted, as it was a less acceptable time to be gay. While this was only a small moment in the show, it shows a societal expectation, certainly in the time period in which it’s set, but definitely still today, that two best friends cannot be soul-mate-level-close without being in love. Tully, in her truest Tully fashion, flicks them off and puts her arm around Kate. The pair walks out of school like this and are made fun of by their classmates for being lesbians. Tully gives Kate her pants and makes her shirt a very short dress. In high school, Kate is wearing a new pair of white pants that she accidentally bleeds through. So, why are you reading this? Because of what happens to Kate and Tully when they are younger. Although, it is true that Kate and Tully are both straight and as far as we know, will never date in the show. However, the way the characters are written highlights a soulmate level bond, and leaves a will-they-won’t-they vibe to be discussed. You may be thinking, Tully and Kate are definitely not lesbians, and you would be right. The reason for that is because of Kate and Tully’s extremely close friendship. Okay, to an unhealthy degree.įirefly Lane is a binger because every episode leaves you wanting more. Ever since, the pair was inseparable, almost to an unhealthy degree. Tully was Kate’s neighbor on Firefly Lane, and had an extremely neglectful mother, thus finding solace in Kate and her family. The show is organized through a series of flashbacks and flash forwards, as it pieces together the lives of Kate (Sarah Chalke) and Tully (Katherine Heigl) from when they met in the 70s’ up until the present day.
