Unreliable Narrator | |
| Poison Ivy / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: How much of the lies Ivy and Sylvie tell about one another are true? Did Sylvie really attempt to kill herself once? Did Ivy really grow up in an neglectful abusive household? Was Sylvie really biracial as she claimed? Georgie calls Sylvie out on her habit of lying but Ivy seems desperate to find love in a family, which she is severely lacking. | |

Hollywood Genetics | |
| Poison Ivy / int_ce993654 | comment |
Hollywood Genetics: Sylvie claims to Ivy that she herself is biracial and that her biological father is a black man which explains her curly hair. Sylvie being portrayed by the caucasian Sara Gilbert makes this claim implausible - it is, of course, just another of Sylvie's lies, but Ivy doesn't point out how unbelievable it is. | |
