The Fosters 3X12: Mixed Messages

I HATE the fact that they told Jesus he can't wrestle anymore. I feel like they are punishing him for doing the right thing. He found himself in trouble, realized he was doing something wrong, stopped immediately, came home and told his moms. And now they want to take away the thing he loves the most?! What fucked up bullshit is this? They are just reinforcing him to not tell them the next time he needs help or finds himself in a situation he doesn't know how to handle. (Which seems destined to happen now that he's friends with Mustang Nick).

Anyway, Callie is busy trying to figure out who knows about her and Brandon (and posted it on the message board). He claims he didn't say anything. And the only person she told was Daphne, who claims it wasn't her. However, she proposes that maybe the message wasn't about Brandon at all, but Liam. (Which is so fucked up since she didn't have sex with Liam, he fucking raped her). The post ended up getting deleted (I thought Callie deleted it, but we find out later, the poster did) and we never get an answer. I assume we will at some point in the future though.

Since we found out about Stef's stage zero breast cancer, mom and Lena are bombarding her with their opinions. Mom thinks she should have a mastectomy, and Lena thinks she should do nothing. Stef is leaning towards a mastectomy herself, but is overwhelmed and doesn't really want to think about it now. She's more focused on arresting Ty after the funeral for his grandma, but tells Lena she'll make a decision once that's settled.

However, since the brothers have run away, they never show up to the funeral. I feel so bad for Mike. He's really just out here just to help someone live his best life and he has to foot the bill for the funeral of a woman he doesn't know and her grandsons up and bailed. AJ did leave a note, but it was very generic. I'm really sad for him.

Callie has a photo shoot for Fost and Found. She had no idea she was going to be in the shoot, but sketchy lady really wants to play up the fact that Callie is a role model. So they've got her in some suit jacket. She looks really lovely. Brandon doesn't seem to think so, but everyone else does. (They're kind of beefing about Callie telling Daphne about them).

Mariana and Lexi are debating and it gets ugly quickly. I know I complained that we're not giving Mariana stuff with enough meat to it, but honestly, this is what high school is like. It's not all super drama, super problems all the time. Sometimes, (if you're lucky) you're biggest problems are just getting into a fight with your friend.

I think I've made my feelings on Jude perfectly clear earlier. But when he asks his moms for money for a new wrestling uniform, they tell him he won't be on the team this year as punishment for his actions at boarding school. Lame. You're just teaching your kids to be secretive and keep things from you. It's on thing if it was ongoing, he hid it from you and you found out. But he came forward and told you! Whatever. He ends up making a new friend with a fast car. I really hope Stef and Lena regret their actions. But that means that Jesus would have to end up in a bad spot, which I don't really want for him.

And Stef gets a letter from the doctor saying that she's at increased risk for breast cancer since she has the BRCA1 gene (I'm pretty sure). She immediately stuffs that in her pocket to hide it from Lena.
