Parents as People | |
| PEN15 / int_20989d05 | comment |
Parents as People: Yuki and Fred love Maya dearly, but between the former's strictness and the latter's tendency to be away on tour, Maya feels uncomfortable seeking them out regarding troubles in her life. As Kathy and Curtis' marriage deteriorates, Anna is caught in the crossfire. Following their separation into different households, both try to be supportive of Anna, but Curtis in particular pressures Anna into moving in with him. | |

Gag Nose | |
| PEN15 / int_4560b6bb | comment |
Gag Nose: In "Jacuzzi," a caricature artist gives Anna a huge nose and Maya a moon-sized head. To illustrate the blow this gives to their self-esteem, the girls' perspectives show them taking on these exaggerated features. | |

Stalker with a Crush: Maya for Brandt, at least as much as a thirteen-year-old can be. She joins the wrestling team to get close to him, then puts her hair into his locker during a psuedo-witchcraft phase. She stops when Brandt brutally tells her he hates her. | |

All for Nothing: Feeling insecure about her family's wealth, Maya begs her father to buy an expensive necklace for Becca's bat mitzvah, despite her mother's disappointment. Upon being gifted it, Becca is flippant and unappreciative. Maya steals the necklace back and gives it to her mother instead as an apology. | |

| PEN15 / int_c5ef2d50 | comment |
Cringe Comedy: Given the show follows two wildly awkward teenage girls, it could hardly not be. Most humor focuses on either the girls trying to be cool, or finding themselves in horribly uncomfortable situations. | |

| PEN15 / int_eb8ec7c8 | comment |
Jerkass: Brandt and his buddy Dustin delight in calling Maya UGIS, but then the former shares a moment with her and even tells her he loves her. Afterwards, all of Maya's attempts to talk about it are met with a cold shoulder. As he grows more annoyed with her, Brandt mocks her to his friends, then finally blows up and tells her she's ugly and that he hates her. While reasonably fed up with her stalking, Brandt seems unable to care less about Maya's feelings. | |
