‘Mistresses’ season 3 spoilers: A complex story in ‘Unreliable Witness’

By the time we get to the end of “Mistresses” season 3, we could see a happy couple, devastating medical news, and someone in prison. Sound about right for this show? What’s funny is that you can read a synopsis like the one below for the ninth episode of the season entitled “Unreliable Witness” (airing August 6) and think that this is the way that the show is going. However, things turn so quickly on a dime with this series that we could see a dramatic turnaround in almost no time at all.

Let’s go ahead and look at the synopsis before we start to dive any deeper into what some of it means. There are minor spoilers ahead, but we don’t think that anything is so explicit that it will cause anyone to freak out:

“Feeling under the weather, Karen heads to the doctor and is stunned when she gets the results. April and Blair move their relationship forward, even though Lucy admits that she’s not fond of him. Marc continues to struggle with his old demons, but Harry is there to help him get back on track. Joss scrambles for evidence against Calista and when Calista twists the story to her benefit, the future looks very grim for Joss.”

Could this mean that the Calinda – Joss friendship is over already? We’d be sad for them, but at the same time there is something rather realistic in the fact that not all friendships work out despite whatever best efforts and intentions are put into them. Also, we’re starting to get the sense that these two characters are playing with fire when it comes to Luca.
