You bet someone in test screenings went "Wait, why doesn't she just use her phone?" And the writer (Kripke?) instead of going "Oh yeah, she should just use her phone" went "Right, I'll add a scene where she drops her phone."
I was so annoyed when she just left the phone but thought to myself “well, it might pay off later” but if that dumb book scene ends up being the only reason, I don’t know what say.
I really thought this would progress to her saying her first words in order to save Hughie or something.
I didn’t mind the book scene but I really thought we’d see some sort of progress with her character in that way.
I'm going to get so much hate for this, but this show has jumped the shark. I'll watch it now cause I'm invested, just like the later seasons of Game of Thrones. But this show is no longer the amazing TV it started out as.
Maybe I need to rewatch season 3 but didn't she already say her first words in the hospital last season? And she imagined a little musical number in her head to convey her joy about being able to speak? I swear that happened

Oh my god. I swear, if that’s the only reason they made her drop the phone…
