![]() ![]() ![]() In an interview with The Wrap, author and co-showrunner Jenny Han talks about the significance of the deb ball to the story. ![]() It is during the ball that the truth comes out about Susannah, which shakes their blended family and leaves them struggling to figure where to go from there. Struggling to deal with his emotions, he leaves Belly without a dance partner, during which Conrad swoops in. Things come to a head at the ball when Jeremiah learns that Susannah's illness is back. Conversations about the ball are interwoven throughout season one, from who will escort Belly (Susannah asks Conrad to, but Jeremiah takes her instead) to Steven losing all his money at a poker game and not having money to buy a matching tux for his escort. On the show, Susannah encourages Belly to participate in the debutante ball, much to Laurel's chagrin. One of the biggest differences between the book and the show is the debutante ball Belly participates in, which is not a plot line in the book at all. ![]()
