Season 9 of Summer House released episode 2 on February 19. After Lindsay announced her pregnancy to the group in the first episode, the second episode was to see Carl's entry. It would be the first time a pregnant Lindsay would be interacting with Carl since he called off their wedding in the past season.
So in episode 2, when he came across Lindsay in private, he asked her how she was and congratulated her on the pregnancy. Kyle, who was standing at a distance, remained there and eavesdropped. Carl also told Lindsay that he didn't get the chance to say anything earlier when the rest of the cast members were around, and Lindsay said that was okay.
She reflected on the time last year when she told Carl that anything could go down the next year, and that she could even be pregnant. The clip of her saying the same was shown, after which she added that what she had said came true. Carl agreed and Lindsay thanked and appreciated him.
Fans of Summer House took to X to react to their interaction.
"I would like that an extended clip of that entire scene of Carl and Lindsey unedited please I couldn’t look away," a fan said.

"Carl, just f**king say hi and congratulations and that’s all you need to say to start off a good note. But no… you’re a little b**ch boy like West," said another fan.
"Carl “I said what I had to say” Okay now leave the show, you’re not needed," added a third.
"Why does Lindsay always think Carl’s mad or judging her… he doesn’t give a sh-t and moved on when he dodged a bullet. She’s projected her judginess on him. It’s very un self aware," added another.

"Why is Carl making this so awkward. He should’ve just ripped the bandaid off when he first arrived," wrote one.
"This conversation with Carl and Lindsay is so awkward. They’re both trying to be cordial but it’s clear she still hates him," another wrote.
