Teenage Wasteland MTV’S ‘AWKWARD.’ RECAP: What Comes First: Sex or Love? (S02E06)
Mikaela Foster

HEY AWKWARDERS!!
Is that a good fan name? Awkwarders? I’m not sure.

ANYWAYS, so much happened in this week’s episode!

The theme for this week’s episode of Awkward is pretty self explanatory. Last week, Jake told Jenna that he loves her, and her response was “awesome!” She realizes that she still has feelings for Matty, and she feels bad for that. I will NOT lose hope in Jatty/Menna, I WILL NOT!!!!!

Matty tells Jake that the rule of telling someone you love them is telling them after sex, and Tamara tells Jenna that she’ll know if she loves Jake if she has sex with him. So, Jenna suggests to Jake that they have sex… EXCEPT SHE ACCIDENTALLY PRESSED THE SPEAKER AND THE WHOLE SCHOOL HEARD IT!!! Jenna is now dealing with people whispering about her and calling her names. Everyone knows what they’re planning and it’s super…. awkward.

Matty talks to Jenna about the whole situation, and jokingly asks her if he should give Jake tips on what to do when they’re… doing it. They were TOTALLY flirting. I really don’t know what’s going to happen between them; are they going to stay friends or are they going to realize their feelings??? I CAN’T WAIT ANY LONGER!!

Lacey’s best friend, Ally, has released the news that she’s getting married, and that it happened overnight. Jenna compares Ally’s relationship with her own, and wonders if she really can love Jake considering they’ve only been dating for a few weeks. She asks Ally questions about her relationship hoping to get something that will help her with her own, but Ally ignores her and addresses her as “Lil bitch”, as always. hahahahahaa.

Sadie and Ricky hooked up on Valentines day, and Ricky realizes that he has feelings for Sadie. Sadie isn’t interested in Ricky besides for sex, but after he lets her know how she feels and she decides to go for him. Sadie…. VULNERABLE? This also leaves Tamara fragile and angry, but that hasn’t really changed.

Jake and Jenna decide to do the dirty. (Me: “NO!!”) They’re stopped by Ally, Lacey, and Valerie, because Jenna and Jake planned on doing it at Jenna’s house but the ladies were already there. When Sadie arrives at Jenna’s house, Jenna finds out that Ally’s fiance is Sadie’s uncle. Later that night, Jenna and Jake come to the decision that they will do it in Jake’s Mom’s minivan, but decide to wait so it’ll be special. I was kind of confused by this though because in the end they were making out in the mini van and then closed the door…?? Did they do it or not?! I’m so confused!!

That’s what happened on this week’s episode of Awkward! What do you think comes first: Sex or Love?? You can (re)watch the episode here, leave a comment below, or talk to me on my Tumblr or Twitter!! Thanks for reading!

  1. Definitely think they went all the way, but it’s pretty clear that Jenna still has feelings for Matty (hence the comment about not even thinking about having sex with Matty whereas with Jake she’s not sure).

    In our review (http://wp.me/p1VQBq-1fR), we think it’s just a matter of time before she and Matty get back together. Which makes me sad cause I’m a Jake shipper. :P
