TSITP's Final Season Has A Surprising Number Of Strange Filming Errors
The summer I turned glitchy.
There isn’t a detail tiny enough to escape the Easter egg-hunting eyes of the Summer I Turned Pretty fandom. But the latest tidbits to get viral attention don’t have to do with that red/blue color theory or a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo — rather, it’s several small elements that the show’s team probably would prefer didn’t get noticed. Fans have caught a few strange filming errors in the final season, which you won’t be able to un-see once they’re pointed out to you.
1. The Moving Dress
In the first moments of the sixth episode of The Summer I Turned Pretty’s final season, Belly and Jeremiah are shown waking up on an air mattress on the floor of his father’s home. The sleeping situation is not ideal, and neither is how the engaged couple has conceded to let Jere’s business-oriented dad Adam help shape their wedding now that he’s offered to fund it. But what’s really surreal is the ghostly movements next to Belly and Jeremiah’s temporary bed.
Fans on TikTok called out one of Belly’s dresses slowly moving out of the shot — as if own its own — during the scene.
Naturally, the TSITP detectives jumped at the chance to read into the moving dress as a potential clue, deducing it could be a subtle sign that Belly is moving away from Jeremiah as their big day draws closer. But of course, the errant piece of attire is most likely an accidental error that the show’s editors missed when finalizing this episode.
That’s not to say other pieces have clothing haven’t been used for important Easter eggs in this final season. Belly’s swimsuits, for example, have been the source of a lot of important references, like how the red bathing suit she wore in Episode 5 when rekindling her spark with Conrad was the same one she wore during a romantic Bonrad moment in Season 1. Or how the bikini top she wore in Episode 4 when she started spending time with Conrad in Cousins again was a mix of blue and red, indicating she was beginning to let the older Fisher in again.
2. Conrad’s Changing Scar
One of the most glaring continuity errors that fans have caught in Season 3 involves Conrad’s surfing injury. When Belly treats his leg wound in Episode 6, the cut is lateral across Conrad’s thigh.
However, when Conrad is wearing shorts in the next episode, his scar is shown to be vertical.
3. The Impossible Reflection
Elsewhere in Episode 7, when Jeremiah and Belly arrive at the beach house, Conrad’s reflection can be briefly seen in the window of Jere’s truck. However, Conrad doesn’t exit the house to greet them until seconds after that shot, meaning he couldn’t have been standing there when the reflection showed up.
Perhaps it was an artistic choice to denote Conrad’s never-ending pining for Belly. Or more likely, it was a little production oopsie.
