In High Fidelity season 1 episode 3 titled "What Fucking Lily Girl?", we are taken deeper into the world of the show's protagonist Rob, played by Zoe Kravitz. Rob puts her record store on hold to attend the funeral of a young musician named Lily, whose passing rocked the local music scene. Rob, who had invited Lily to open for a popular band at a gig she curated, feels partially responsible for the late musician's untimely death.

In the wake of Lily's death, Rob becomes preoccupied with the idea of being remembered after she dies. She worries that she hasn't done enough with her life and laments not having any good stories to tell when she's an old woman. This anxiety is piqued by the funeral's outpouring of love and support for Lily. Rob realizes that she hasn't been living life to the fullest and it's not too late to start.

In "What Fucking Lily Girl?", we also get to see more of Rob's romantic life. She is still hung up on her ex-boyfriend Mac, played by Kingsley Ben-Adir, but tries to move on by going on a date with Clyde, played by Jake Lacy. However, she quickly realizes that Clyde isn't the person she wants to be with. Meanwhile, Mac makes a surprise visit to Rob's apartment, which further complicates things.

The episode also explores Rob's relationship with her co-worker Cherise, played by Da'Vine Joy Randolph. The two have a tenuous friendship, with Cherise often questioning Rob's taste in music and men. In "What Fucking Lily Girl?", we see their friendship tested, as Cherise reveals a secret that shakes Rob to her core.

Throughout the episode, we are treated to an excellent soundtrack, featuring music from artists like Big Thief, Sharon Van Etten, and Sufjan Stevens. The music serves as a connective tissue between Rob and the deceased Lily, as well as a reminder that life is too short not to enjoy the things we love.

Overall, "What Fucking Lily Girl?" is a poignant episode that delves into themes of life, death, and legacy. It showcases the show's strong performances and deft handling of complex emotions. The episode leaves us wanting more from the characters and eagerly anticipating what's to come next.
