Karen is back in LA and she's kicking ass and taking names!
Boy, does she have Hank's number - but, she's not too concerned with his sexual exploits - what she is concerned about is Becca. This mama bear feels threatened and the claws come out - against the Koons', who she criticizes for poor parenting, but look who's talking!
Of course, whenever a teenager is acting horrible, the parent is going to blame it on the bad influence best friend. Chelsea's parents are the cool aloof parents who aren't bothered by teenage rebellion - Karen is high strung when she hears the girls break into a wine stash to get drunk and find Chelsea's parents drinking as well. The Koons' are all too cool about everything - remember how Felicia responded to hearing about the girls' smoking Hank's pot? No big deal! Well, for Karen, everything is a big deal, especially when her little girl is so far away from her.
Now, I know that most teenagers are horrendous and irritating, but it's so much worse with Becca since she's like half robot or something! Initiating anger emotion sequence! It's so bizarre! She even whines in a monotone - if that's even possible...
Who knew that machines could develop attachments? It's funny that Becca doesn't want to leave LA because Chelsea is her only friend who accepts her for who she is. First of all, it's weird that Becca would be friends with the "weird kid" who doesn't have any other friends - Becca is archetype for popular: blonde, pretty and rich. Second, duh! No one is going to accept you for who you are in Los Angeles! Has she ever been to NYC? She'll have so many more friends there! Teenagers can be so stupid. Get her packing, Karen!

i love, love, love, love ok you get it,
this show. I wish it would run commercial
free on FOX network tv, because my basic
cable bill does not include SHOWTIME, and
my unemployement checks arent stretching that
far, due to the current wall street mess,
i have many to thank for putting this ecomony in
the toilet and not seeiNg the light of day.
Thanks David for being the star you are and holding true to scripts that forever live on in our heart and daily lives. I love "Karen" so beautiful, E Entertainment should hire her for red carpet interviewing...camera beautiful...

Thank god for freedom of speach and David D.
All the past episodes of Californication are truly epic.
..like no other on series on tv, light years
from network tv, (cbs, nbc, abc) basic cable service,
the suits at SHOWTIME have it together,
the scenes I've seen since watching the shows, are
timeless, captivating and bold and this show and its creators should
have been on the E.W. top 25 smartest in hollywood, however, since E.W. isn't the real publication it thinks it is, and I'm sure they had to lay off the brains of the organization due to the money they deserved,
becasue if E.W. ok (entertainment weekly) had brains
David would be right next to Lorre, a toss heads or tails...apples and oranges...two brains are better than one...unless you have Paula at the other half....
