This season of The Arrangement is getting quite messy but one thing that we know for sure is that Megan will never get between Kyle and Terence.

IHM is always going to come first to him which means she’ll never fully have Kyle.

And for someone who is actively working to take IHM down, that’s just not going to cut it.

Megan thought she was making some headway with Kyle, who for the past few episodes, has been leaning on her more than the Institute.

But now, she’s more alone than ever. The only other people she has on her side are Kyle’s assistant and his little group, who pointed out that Shaun probably lied to her about what she found on Julie Wolfe.

Of course, she did! Shaun has been compromised. She’s totally crushing on Terence which is why she’s so hesitant to help Megan take it all down. And it’s also why she keeps getting mad that Megan is actively trying to take this thing down.

From what she’s seen, Terence is really doing this because he believes in his mission. Some people just aren’t that aware and can’t see through him.

And he relies on it! He relies on the people that fall for his charms, who feel like he saved them, for this Institute to stay open.

Trust me when I say, there’s no shortage of women who are falling for Terence.

In fact, as Kyle goes through his “break-down,” after being forced to relive his break-up with Lisbeth for an IHM documentary, he starts reliving a meltdown that destroyed his relationship.

We’ve never actually seen what happened with Lisbeth and Kyle so we couldn’t really understand why he’s so jaded, why he believes he owes Terence his life and why IHM was his lifeline.

Now we know, Terence was the one who stopped Kyle from going too deep; from going to a place he could never come back from.

Kyle pointed a gun at Terence before turning it on himself. Not to mention a moment of anger directed at Lis caused him to punch a hole in the wall.

I don’t exactly know what his past demons are that have taken hold of him. What did he tell Lisbeth that scared her off? And who is Aaron? Why was he so set on calling him?

However, more shocking is how fake Terence really is. It’s always been clear he doesn’t actually have Kyle’s best interests at heart, but I never pegged him for the guy who was actually sleeping with Lisbeth while Kyle was dating her. He lied to his face and it’s terrible to watch because Kyle truly believes him. Open your eyes, man!

Kyle was really in love with her, but she was completely in love with Terence. I mean, she wanted to run away with him which in hindsight is ridiculous cause Terence would never care about anything more than he cares about IHM and his moneymaker, Kyle.

So really, Terence is to blame for whatever messed up state Lisbeth is in right now. Remember when Megan wanted to get some intel from her and she just kept repeating the same thing over and over? But what did Terence do to her?

Still, she knows from being with both of them that nothing will come between them. She tried to warn Megan but now, she’s learning the hard way.

After Kyle presumably “cleared his head,” he did the most irrational thing — he fired Xavier. He claims it had nothing to do with the affair rumors or anything else, he simply realized that he didn’t believe in himself to act in the movie. I think that’s rubbish but whatever. It’s frankly quite annoying that they made us care about Megan relationship with Xavier just to pull him out of this.

I think that Xavier will be Megan’s saving grace sometime in the near future. He never believed in this IHM crap and only joined because he thought it would make his director happy.When Kyle fired him, he was angry but he was also relieved because he could finally be free from all of this. He sees it for what it truly is — a cult — and also sees that Megan is completely terrified of them all.

And how could she not be? Terence hates her so much, she’ll likely become the next Julia Wolfe. He even told her she “isn’t that important.” That’s basically code for, “I could end you in a day if I wanted to.”

I think that Kyle is going to turn his back on Megan when he realizes she isn’t fully supportive of IHM the way he thought she was because if they let her leave, she’ll expose them or try to ruin them.

Megan has every right to be on edge — I’d be freaked out too if I saw the guy from the Farm that drugged me and succumbed me to all this mental brainwashing. Then, he’s talking about immortality.

The only thing scarier than IHM is IHM talking about living forever. What’s next? Taking over the world. It seems like that’s what The Arrangement is setting up for.

Will Megan find Julie? Will Shaun tell Terence that Megan has been looking into her? Will Megan be sent to The Farm again? Does Terence know that Megan is conspiring against him? If he had such a solid repertoire with Lis, it’s possible she told him or he still watches her.

Terence could be playing the long-game here and setting up his pieces so that it’s going to be relatively easy to wipe Megan off the map.

Catch up with The Arrangement on E!

The Arrangement is back and in full-on wedding mode!

Kyle and Megan are getting married but it isn’t based on love, it’s fueled by a pre-existing contract, a movie deal and a publicity timeline. Romantic, right?

Megan also isn’t fully invested; every since she left the Facility, she’d been detached. Understandably so. Her future husband is the man who gave her away to Terrence and dragged her to this place where she was basically brainwashed.

He knows it too and wants her to admit that she’s angry at him so they can learn how to fix it and move forward.

But Megan refuses because if she’s to move forward with her plan to take down IHM, she has to pretend like she’s fully invested.

It’s impossible to take on a such a task and not break a few hundred times. After spending some time at the Facility, Megan knows what they are capable of if they figure out what she’s doing. And despite her new fondness of the place, I don’t think Terrence fully trusts her.

Megan’s love for Kyle is real, however debilitating the PTSD may be, but she has to decide if she’s going to attempt to bring him on her team or take him down with the institute.

At first, it seems like Kyle’s ex-girlfriend Lisbeth was right, there’s no separating Kyle and Terrence.

But after their major fight, Megan notices that Kyle isn’t just blindly following what Terrence says; he takes control of the movie, pulling out as an actor and signing on solely as a director. Yes, his unfavorable decision comes with the possibility of funding being pulled but he’s that confident in making it work for them as a couple. Which means there may be hope to pull Kyle out of IHM after all.

Megan knows that Lisbeth isn’t telling the public the truth about why she broke off her engagement with Kyle. Ever since then, she’s been acting really sketchy and when Megan tries to hunt her down for answers, she looks terrified and pushes her away.

Eventually, she agrees to talk. What did Terrence do to her that made her give up on the relationship? Will these two work together to bring IHM down?

I really want to trust Ingrid but given as she’s IHM’s lawyer, she could very well be working against Megan and simply pretending to find out exactly what she’s planning to do. With Andres now accepting a job at the Facility, will she be able to find out where it’s located? You expose that, you can expose everything.

Terrene honestly gives me the heebie-jeebies — the way he controls Kyle, his vision on expanding IHM to the masses, and sleeping with all those young and impressionable women. It’s just disturbing.

And what’s up with Deann? They have an open marriage so her jealousy was a bit irrational, especially since she was sexting Mason, who appears to be a former lover. Honestly, why are they even together? Does it make for better business? I personally enjoyed seeing Terrence’s hook-up freak out after seeing Deann in the room and even more so when she wasn’t even phased by it.

Megan’s only saving grace would have been Leslie but she just fired her because she was a bit too chaotic for IHM and would likely thwart all of Megan’s plans. She was trying to give her a career but that’s not what Megan cares about at this point; it’s do-or-die, and she just doesn’t want to be a prisoner in her own, fake world.

Do you think she’ll go through with the wedding? With the plans to destroy IHM?

It’s been a wild ride for Megan Morrison but it came crashing down on this weeks The Arrangement as her past came back to haunt her and Kyle turned to Terence for guidance.

We start off with Megan getting blindsided by the cover of a gossip tabloid, reporting that there’s trouble in paradise between her and Kyle, providing a picture of him in bed with Amelia Briggs, the co-star he’s rumored to be “moving on with.” Megan laughs it off because “it’s just Hollywood” but is surprised to learn it’s a PR stunt and Kyle knew all about it.

Well, not “all about it” but he knew of the road map without details. The “romance” between him and Amelia was faked by a marketing company in order to sell tickets to the movie. But no worries – they planned to have Megan and Kyle reconcile just in time for the premiere. I guess I always believed that certain relationships could be publicity stunts but I never actually thought about the process behind it; a whole team mapping out your life, just to advance your career? No wonder Megan was a little bummed about it. Between this and the contract, it seems like she’s just living this artificial life that’s planned by someone else.

Seeing how upset this all made her, Kyle decided to be spontaneous and planned a little date night at Nobu. This isn’t really relevant to the storyline but if a cover just teased trouble in paradise for these two, wouldn’t a public outing negate it, proving that they are still together and madly in love? Just saying.

The two never made it to Nobu because their motorcycle “accidentally” broke down by the beach – just in time for them to catch the sunset from a secluded little love suite. Turns out, Kyle planned the whole thing not as an apology, but as a proposal. See, sometimes Kyle can make his own decisions!

Somehow, word of their engagement got out to E! News and the only person that was happy about that diamond ring was Megan. Everyone else was peeved that Kyle had gone off course, thus botching their mastermind marketing plans. You know how much money is lost on a movie when two leads are in love? A lot. Which makes me wonder why they didn’t just give the part to Kyle’s actual GF Megan like originally planned if the goal was to sell a love story?

The engagement is quickly pushed to the backburner when Megan is blackmailed by the same dude who broke into Kyle’s apartment and has been stalking the outside of the lavish Hills home. As Kyle takes a call making sure that Amelia’s rehab check in was merely a PR stunt, Megan is approached by a man who is all sorts of unsettling. At first she doesn’t recognize him but he gets right down to the point – he went to jail after taking the fall for Evan’s death, after Megan killed him.

Need a refresher? Evan was Megan’s handsy step-brother. She told Kyle all about him during a trip back home for her best friends wedding. At the time, she admitted that Evan passed but never revealed cause of death.

After the confrontation, Megan is sick to her stomach, not because she killed a guy but because she was about to be exposed and it could potentially threaten Kyle’s whole career. She couldn’t tell him the truth because then she’d reveal that she was dishonest when signing their contract and a breach could cost her a career when she’d only just started.

She decides to turn to Shaun for advice and considering she’s a lawyer, it seems logical. That is until she finds out that her BFF is actually working as a counsel for Terence, aka the one person you absolutely don’t want to find out about something like this. It’s no secret that he’s not a fan of Megan and would take this and run with it.

Realizing she’d exhausted all her options, Megan finally comes clean to Kyle, who is more peeved about the fact that she lied and now he has to pay $5 million dollars than about her killing someone. Hollywood you know. How can a man who has lied about a majority of their relationship get mad about his partner doing the same thing? You tell me.

He assures her that he still loves her and tells her he’ll handle it. I was surprised that Megan went to seek advice from Kyle but after all the recent events, it seemed like he really was in her corner, backing her up and taking on the “we’re in this together mindset.” Oh, you don’t even know how wrong Megan was.

Soon after, Terence calls Megan’s agent and she knows that it’s #GameOver. Instead of trying to find a solution, Megan decides to pack her things and leave Kyle a goodbye note. As she’s finishing up, Deann appears at the house telling Megan “it’ll be okay” before a man throws a bag over her head and kidnaps her. Who else is surprised that sweet and provocative Deann is actually siding with IHM? When I saw her sit down after literally ordering the kidnapping of Megan to scheme with Terence some more, who confidently admitted that Kyle would trust him again, I was disgusting.

There’s question about who told Terence about Megan’s predicament. While the series tried to make it seem like Shaun ratted Megan out, I’m confident that her best friend is still weary of IHM, even if she’s slowly buying into all the hoopla. Kyle, however, knew he had limited options and acted the only way he knew how – by turning to his mentor to solve his problems. The good news is that we know he still cares about Megan because he could have just kicked her to the curb to deal with her own problems while ordering the contract void. On the other hand, is it really love or just a further extension to protect his own brand? Megan making the front pages for murder and a breakup would inevitably take a toll on his career, especially since they just got engaged.

After a long trip, stuck in the back of a van, Megan finally arrived at her final destination, a secret Shutter Island-esque facility belonging to IHM. Basically, they want her to undergo a full-on IHM transformation so that she becomes more controllable, aligning her thoughts and ideas with theirs, so she poses less of a problem. In other words – she’s being brainwashed and it proves everything we thought about IHM (and Scientology, I’m sure).

Does Kyle even know where Megan was taken too? Has he been here before? Has he secretly been wanting to make Megan into someone that doesn’t challenge anything that his guru Terence recommends? Have we all been fooled? Despite the illusion that Kyle has been grounded and living on the same planet as Megan, he’s still very much stuck in la la land… and not the musical.

The series establishes the IHM for what it really is – a place that eliminates problems when they don’t fir the narrative. And it turns The Arrangement into a semi-horror, semi-love story, semi-tell-all-about-Hollywood. We’re almost at the finale and I’m shocked to say, I can’t wait to see what next twisted turn the series takes.
