GLOW: 22 WTF Moments In Netflix's Ladies Wrestling Series

15. Miscarriage

...Or not.

Deciding to pull a prank on the others, Melrose hides a ketchup battle in her top and then, in the middle of the ring after being put on her back, pretends... to... have... a... miscarriage.

Sam, being the mastermind of GLOW, sees this as an opportunity. It wasn't enough for Melrose to pull that prank, but instead he works the miscarriage into an entire storyline, with backstory and a rivalry.

It's all a bit f**ked up, and is one of the few instances where GLOW's attempts at humour just don't work on any level. Then again, Mae Young gave birth to a hand, so maybe it's all justified. (It's not.)
