Episode two is also where fans got a look at her character’s true nature and motivations.
In a scene with Tedros (played by The Weeknd), Jennie’s character reveals that she had befriended Jocelyn at the request of Tedros. It is also shown that Dyanne had a long-standing sexual relationship with Tedros, Jocelyn’s current boyfriend.
The scene peaks as she asks him, “Is she (Jocelyn) a better f*ck than me?”
I definitely didn't expect to see Jennie playing a villain in the show. But I love it.#TheIdol #TheIdolHBO pic.twitter.com/GDMj3oGuHb

It’s not only Jennie’s scene getting criticism — in the episode’s sex scene, the Weeknd’s explicit dialog was seen as laugh-worthy and cringy instead of sexy.
Imagine my tongue on your p*ssy. My fat tongue. I wanna grab you by the ass while I suffocate you with my c*ck. I want you to choke on it.
— The Weeknd as Tedros
Oh, yeah. Choke on, yeah choke on it. F*cking stretch that tiny, little p*ssy

Many likened the script to a story found on the website Wattpad, a platform where many inexperienced writers first get their start.
The Idol is basically just men writing a wattpad horny fanfiction and bringing it to life. https://t.co/KLW7xsOgcK
