Somehow, we made it to another episode of “And Just Like That...” and we’re still questioning damn near everything that happened. Sure, a lot of us “Sex and the City” fans are hate-watching the spinoff series at this point, but hey, we can’t seem to get enough of Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Charlotte (Kristin Davis), Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), Seema (Sarita Choudhury) and Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker).

Well, after the humongous hat seen ‚Äôround the world riled up ‚ÄúAnd Just Like That...‚ÄĚ fans in the Season 3 premiere, there wasn‚Äôt nearly as much hoopla to dig into in this week‚Äôs episode. That is, unless you‚Äôre into the mechanics of a ‚Äúrat superhighway.‚ÄĚ In Thursday‚Äôs episode, the ‚ÄúSex and the City‚ÄĚ spinoff takes on Carrie‚Äôs (Sarah Jessica Parker) rat-yard in her once-lovely private garden.
