S1 E7 - Drawing the Line - part 1

Trigger Warning: Theme of Sexual Violence / Rape discussed.
Drawing the Line (part 1) is our first two-part episode of Felicity we are tackling, and it gave us some major topics to unpack. This episode introduces a date rape story line at the very end, showing a lead-up of complexity and gray area that so often happens in the real world. Through that backdrop, we explore what consent looked like in the 90s.  We also have a lot to say about what it's really like to set boundaries in healthy relationships, toxic relationships, and everything in between. 
Elena's story line highlights a class struggle as she loses a scholarship and is forced to accept help and financial aid to stay in school. 
We also ponder when it is appropriate to be a buttinsky, whether the "Quarter Master" is Sean's worst invention yet, and what could possibly be in Meghan's box.
Triple bonus points for anyone who can send us a screenshot of what used to be on www.noelcrane.com!
