'The Act' episode 3 preview: The beginning of Gypsy Blanchard's rebellion against her mother Dee Dee

Joey King continues to impress as Gypsy Blanchard, whose rebellion against her mother Dee Dee, played by Patricia Arquette, intensifies in upcoming episode

In the second episode of Hulu's 'The Act', we saw Gypsy Blanchard (Joey King) learn the truth about who she really is. She learns to lie to her mother Dee Dee (Patricia Arquette) and begins to live a secret life on social media sites.

She also begins to understand that she is not a child anymore but a woman. Her curiosity about boyfriends, her age and even the food that she is allowed to eat grows. One night she sneaks back to the kitchen and has a taste of cola and ice cream, both of which she is not supposed to have, especially not directly.

Food for Gypsy is prepared by her mother and injected through a pipe into her system.

The third episode of the show will take Gypsy's risque moves a step further.
