It’s a warm September night in 2025, and I’m sprawled on my couch, heart in my throat, watching the trailer for The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3 Episode 11 for the fifth time. The finale of this Prime Video gem, set to hit screens on September 17, 2025, has me reeling—not just because of the proposal teased in earlier trailers, but because of a moment I didn’t see coming: Jeremiah and Conrad Fisher, the brothers who’ve been at odds over Belly Conklin’s heart for years, standing together on Cousins Beach, laughing like the world hasn’t cracked them open. This isn’t just a TV show anymore; it’s a tidal wave of nostalgia, love, and the kind of family ties that bend but never break. The trailer’s tagline—“Jeremiah and Conrad connected again”—promises a reunion that’s as healing as it is heartbreaking, and I’m not sure I’m ready for what’s coming.
If you’ve been swept up in Jenny Han’s world since the show premiered in 2022, you know the Fisher brothers are the heartbeat of The Summer I Turned Pretty. Based on Han’s bestselling trilogy, the series follows Isabel “Belly” Conklin (Lola Tung) through summers at Cousins Beach, where her family’s lifelong friendship with the Fishers—Susannah and her sons, Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno)—shapes her into the woman she’s becoming. Season 1 was all about Belly’s crush on Conrad, the moody older brother with a knack for breaking hearts. Season 2 gutted us with Susannah’s death and Belly’s pivot to Jeremiah, only for Conrad’s quiet longing to linger like salt in the air. Season 3, now in its final stretch, has taken us four years forward—Belly’s a junior at Finch University, studying in Paris, navigating a love triangle that’s less about choosing a boy and more about choosing herself. But this trailer? It’s not just about Belly’s ring or her tears. It’s about two brothers finding their way back to each other, and that hits deeper than any beachside kiss.
The trailer opens with a shot that feels like home: Cousins Beach at dusk, the sky bruised purple, waves lapping like they’re whispering secrets. Taylor Swift’s “August” hums in the background, because of course it does—this show’s practically a Swiftie shrine. We see Jeremiah and Conrad on the boardwalk, tossing a frisbee, their laughter raw and real, like they’re 16 again, before love and loss drove a wedge between them. “You still suck at this,” Jeremiah teases, dodging a bad throw, and Conrad’s grin—rare, unguarded—lights up the screen. It’s a moment that feels stolen from their childhood, before Susannah’s cancer, before Belly’s heart became a battlefield. But then the camera pans to Belly, watching from the porch, her face a mix of joy and dread. “I can’t lose them both,” she whispers, and the trailer cuts to black, leaving us with questions that sting like sand in a cut. Are the brothers finally healing? Or is this connection a fragile truce, doomed to shatter when Belly makes her choice?
Let’s rewind to understand why this matters. Conrad and Jeremiah’s relationship has always been the show’s quiet backbone. Season 1 showed them as opposites—Conrad, the introspective dreamer, bottling up his pain; Jeremiah, the golden retriever, all charm and open wounds. When Belly chose Conrad, Jeremiah hid his hurt behind a smile; when she pivoted to Jeremiah in Season 2, Conrad retreated, his letters piling up like apologies he couldn’t say aloud. Season 3’s time jump brought new layers: Conrad at Stanford, pouring his soul into letters that found Belly in Paris; Jeremiah in Cousins, rebuilding himself after their broken engagement. Episode 10’s trailer showed them reconciling—Jeremiah forgiving Conrad for past betrayals, a football toss signaling peace. But this Episode 11 trailer doubles down, giving us a montage of their shared history: young Conrad teaching Jeremiah to surf, the brothers sneaking beers at a bonfire, Susannah’s voiceover saying, “You two are my forever.” It’s a gut-punch, reminding us that their bond isn’t just about Belly—it’s about surviving a mother’s loss, a family’s fracture, a summer that changed them all.
The trailer’s genius lies in its balance of hope and dread. We see the brothers rebuilding—Conrad helping Jeremiah fix a boat, their hands stained with grease, their banter easy. But then there’s Belly, back from Paris, her yellow sundress catching the wind as she walks toward them. A ring glints in someone’s hand—whose, we don’t know, because Han loves to torture us. “You’re my brother,” Jeremiah says, clapping Conrad’s shoulder, but his eyes flicker to Belly, and the music shifts to a minor key. Conrad’s letters, scattered across Belly’s Paris apartment in earlier episodes, appear again, one line read aloud: “I’ll wait as long as it takes.” The trailer cuts between Paris and Cousins, past and present—Belly laughing with new friends (Corinna Brown’s character, a Parisian artist), Jeremiah tossing a football with Steven, Conrad staring at the ocean like it holds answers. Laurel (Jackie Chung) watches from afar, her face tight with worry. “They’re family,” she tells Taylor (Rain Spencer), “but family breaks too.” It’s a line that lands like a stone, hinting that this reunion might come at a cost.
Fans are losing it online, and I get why. Reddit’s r/TheSummerITurnedPretty is a war zone of theories: “Jeremiah and Conrad laughing together? I’m CRYING,” one user posts, while another warns, “Belly’s choice is gonna ruin this.” TikTok edits are flooding my feed, syncing the brothers’ frisbee scene to “Brother” by Kodaline, with comments like “Protect the Fishers at all costs!” Han, who’s both author and showrunner, has teased that Season 3’s finale—unlike the book’s tidy epilogue—will “surprise even the biggest fans,” per her Variety interview. The books ended with Conrad and Belly’s rainy beach wedding, Jeremiah happy with a date, but the show’s Paris arc and new characters (like Benito, Belly’s fling) suggest a bolder path. Could the brothers’ connection mean they both step back, letting Belly choose herself? Or will her decision—Conrad’s soulful letters versus Jeremiah’s steadfast heart—force them to choose sides again?
The ensemble keeps the stakes high. Taylor and Steven, now solid after their Episode 10 reunion, share a scene flipping through old photos, Taylor whispering, “Belly’s gonna need us.” Steven (Sean Kaufman) gets a quiet moment with Conrad, saying, “You’re not Dad—you don’t have to fix everything.” It’s a nod to Conrad’s burden as the older brother, carrying Susannah’s memory like a torch. New cast members add spice: Corinna Brown’s Parisian friend urges Belly to “stay free,” while Isaline Prevost Radeff’s character, a Finch classmate, eyes Jeremiah with interest. The trailer hints at a beach party, all fairy lights and heartbreak, where Belly dances between the brothers, her smile fading as the ring reappears. Han’s changes—expanding Paris, deepening the brothers’ arc—feel like a love letter to fans who’ve grown up with these characters. “It’s not just about who she picks,” Tung told Today. “It’s about who they all become.”
What gets me is how real this feels. I was 15 when I read Han’s books, dreaming of a summer where I’d find my own Cousins Beach, my own messy love story. Now, watching Conrad and Jeremiah reconnect, it’s like seeing my own siblings patch up old fights—tentative, tender, terrifying. The trailer captures that ache: the way family can be your anchor and your storm. Briney and Casalegno sell it—Briney’s haunted eyes, Casalegno’s guarded grin. Their chemistry, honed over three seasons, makes every shared glance feel earned. Han’s promised a finale that’s “satisfying but not simple,” and the trailer’s final shot—Conrad and Jeremiah on the beach, Belly approaching, a ring box half-open—leaves us dangling. “We’ll always have this,” Conrad says, but the wind carries his words away.
As we count down to September 17, I’m stocking up on snacks and tissues, ready to bawl my eyes out at 3 a.m. ET on Prime Video. This trailer isn’t just about a proposal or a love triangle; it’s about brothers who’ve lost a mother, a home, and nearly each other, finding their way back. Will Belly’s choice break them again? Or will their bond outlast the summer? The trailer doesn’t say, and that’s the magic of The Summer I Turned Pretty—it’s not about the ending, but the waves you ride to get there. Grab your sunscreen and your heart. Cousins Beach is calling, and it’s got stories to tell.
