I'm wondering if the letter says something along the lines of Serena's father not really being her real father. Like maybe he was just going along with it for Lily (child support/no scandal) or he was already married to someone else before Lily because Serena threw the letter at her mom and saying her mom had no right to judge her. And in the preview for next weeks epi, it seems kind of obvi that Maureen would use the letter for blackmail. So maybe Maureen confronts Serena about being illegitimate or something?

getting Chair off the show means killing GG
I admit I would still b watching but much much less enthusiastic, for one I wont even bother to follow GGInsider or reading and commenting any of the thread. I would just treat GG like any other show I've been watching

I completley agree with Ella. Nate stole a video of Serena and Tripp kissing so she could come crawling back to him. and to be honest if I were Serena I would be a little weirded out at the fact that Nate comes to me all of a sudden to confess his love. Umm where were you 2 months ago. I think its kinda weird how he starts to confess his love just as Serena and Tripp are getting together. I want Nate and Serena together but I also want drama and the only way thats gonna happen is if Serena and Tripp go together. ANOTHER THING if Chair is going to be this boring they might as well break them up. They are so boring together. Like an old married couple. The way they dress and the way they talk. If they act like this just get them off the show. You may hate Serena all you want but atleast her character creates drama and isnt living in some fantasy world. But thats just my opinion.

Come on, people, Serena did the right thing!
1. The show needs drama and scandal.
2. Nate fell in love with her in one day after three years in which they both slept around a lot. Yeah, they obviously missed each other. And he was so infatuated with her when she was his fake girlfriend kissing him at the White Party! O wait, he was infatuated with the old woman...
3. He stole the tape and told Maureen.
4. Chace can't act. I don't see any improvement, sorry. And he's definitely not as good as Ed!
I am too lazy to answer all questions, but I have to say I am happy that both Blair and Chuck got good lines, however, I am really sad that they are having no drama and no steamy scenes.
About the who-is-the-better-actor...I cannot answer that because I really have just seen Ed playing Chuck and Chace playing Nate. And I don´t care who you like, you have to agree that a good actor has more than one good role. Nevertheless, Ed IS a better actor, for many reasons but mostly because he steals every scene he is in while Chace could be confused with the wall most of the times, he is so boring and always has the same facial expression. I really hope to be wrong and start seeing the emotion you guys are all talking about.

1 - Favorite Quote: Blair about her mother having another Aaron Rose. Totally agree with Gossip Guy.
2 - Best Episode of the Season? I wouldn't go that far. It was a great episode, but almost Chairless, so NO!
3 - About Serena's "Should I stay or Should I go" thing? Well, I don't know about her, but I go with DANdy! "Gone with Tripp. What fun is it to hiberNATE in the city when you can, ummm, go on a Tripp with your latest misguided boy toy."
4 - Danessa - When has Dan joined manwhore's club?
5 - Eric taking Jenny down, Will he try? - Hope so! Go girlfriend!
6 - About Maureen and The letter: "Mister Meester: Hopefully give it back to Lily, so she can continue her relentless pursuit of a new record for most consecutive terrible places to hide damaging information from an unstable daughter. Seriously? In a coat pocket?"
7 - Bonus Question II: Vanessa's uselessness rate from 1-10: 20. Gets doubled thanks to her pain in the ass mother. What were they doing at Lilly's again??

im sorry but i just HAVE let my opinion be known on serena's decision to leave with tripp. i mean, WHO WOULDNT?! i dont really give a shit about nates puppy dog eyes. the pure fact that he stole the scandalous video, paraded it in front of maureen (queen of ridiculous scandals) in order to blackmail serena into staying with him and then had the audacity to beg her to stay with him. hmmm, who would you go with: the guy who threatened to out you as some political skank in front of your mother (which, in turn gets her booted from her house) or the perfect gentlemen who only now realized hes married to some psycho bitch and is leaving her, with good reason, for serena. i say she made the right choice.

1. My favorite quote is Chuck: "Hey." Nate: "Yo.". WTF?! A close second, only because I'm a middle child, is Blair: "By the way, how do you feel about having a sibling? Someone who's sole purpose on the earth is to compete with you for your parents' love and attention?".
2. Can't call that the best epsiode of the season so far cause I haven't seen half of them. I'm late coming to the table.......in my catsuit.
3. Well, it wouldn't be much of a show if she stayed with Nate, now would it?
4. DV as a couple only in the last season when all other possibilities have been exhausted.
5. Eric is no match for Jenny. Gay Guys can't be anywhere near as mean as girls can!
BQ. I don't care what Maureen does with the letter! I'm concerned about the indicators that Dorota and Eleanor are being written off the show!

Chace did a gooood job in this episode, but Nate is still 'shit'. He still goes on my nerves -.-
Serena was craaaazy though, I really? choosing trip over Nate? Even, though I *almost* hate Nate, I would have chosen him ! (*admits* he is very hot, and looked so awesome telling her not to go)
But Ed Westwick is the best. He does chuck so well (even though chuck has for some reason transformed into some creepy-wise-guy-with-ugly-hair) and his quote was AWESOME
*laughs* grap ass *laughs more*
Leighton is amazing 2, she play's Blair just ppeeeerfectly. And I really liked Blair's dress ! It was so amazing!
I'm getting tired though of the "none Chair drama" that has been going on, but I know (or hope) its gonna change in the next episode. It just must... riiiight?

If he was a better actor, maybe they would give him better story lines. He can't even pull off what he's got.

I think that Lilly was visiting Serena's father for the MIA month of September. I think that Lilly was ditvched by Serena's dad by another woman which is why Lilly is angry at Serena for the whole Trip fiasco. It is going to come out that Lilly is still in love with Serena's dad....
My favorite quote of the episode was definetely Chuck and the grab ass. Had me laughing for a while. Also, Blair asking Jenny how to deal with a brother. Haha.
It hasn't been the best episode so far--I think last week's was slightly better. Yet, I have to point out, that I was actually waiting for Serena and Nate to get together, not because I ship them, but because I had gotten used to this show's quick pace, arc-less episodes. I was gladly surprised at her decision.
Bravo, Serena! Be the dumb tramp we love!
Don't know who said this, but it was hilarious: No Boobs=No Brain. Accurate as hell.
Dan and Serena deserve each other. They are the show's more bland characters after Jenny, Nate, Aaron Rose and his ex Lexy, Gabriel, Poppy Lifton, Vanessa's Mother, Lily van der Woodsen and her younger self, Allison, Rufu's random hook ups, the Thai Ho named Bo, the New York whore with complex of Cecilia Bolocco called Elle, those stupid college dudes that kidnapped Chuck, Agnes, Geor

Am I the only one who finds Tripp terribly UNATTRACTIVE? He is NOT hot- he looks like an awkward nerdy kid that would never get a date to save his life. How is Serena turned on by that man is beyond me, considering she had that blonde hunk (Popppy's man). Both Maureen and Serena can do better than Tripp. I used to like his character because he seemed like a decent guy, but I can't tell what the hell he is thinking or doing as a MAN with a TEENAGER. Even if he is attracted to her (who isn't?)- it doesn't mean he needed to act on it! But I guess it wouldn't be a scandal otherwise. I just wish the congressman they picked was someone actually worth drooling over.

2. Yes this was definately the most interesting episode so far, it kept me at the edge of my seat the whole time!
3. Duh she should've stayed with Nate, but to make a more interesting storyline she had to go with Tripp, but that doesn't mean I like Tripp at all.
4. Dan and Vanessa would make a cute couple but as Vanessa's mom said if they break up then that would mess up their friendship and I personally like them as friends.

Nate: Don't go with Tripp.
Serena: Nate ...
Nate: Look, I know what I did was wrong. But I did it because ... ever since last week, ever since three years ago when you left ... please don't go. Please stay here with me. Please give me a chance.
I said it once, I'll say it again. Serena being an idiot for the time being is allowing Nate to be awesome. All the cool things he is doing (punching tripp, confessing his love, fighting for his woman, etc) are all due to SERENA.
Endgame = Serenate, Chair and Danessa.

I'd love to see Eric make a play for Queen, but just to prove to Jenny that he can take it from her. I think the show needs at least a few people not totally given over to poor conduct to keep it slightly realistic.
Chuck Bass... need I say more? I love that Blair calls him just "Bass" how sexy is that?! Chair lines usually win best quote, hands down.
I agree with everyone who said Nate's acting is waaay getting better. He *really* sold the "it's always been you Serena" bit. Come to think of it, if he had actually said "it's always been you, Serena" I would have been crying like a baby. How could she choose Tripp?! INSANE! CHOOSE NATE! CHOOSE NATE!
(yes, I am not mentioning Danessa or Rufus/Lily/Dr. Van der Woodsen)

2. yes so far this is the best....finally some drama!
3. Yes Dan and Vanessa make a nice couple...for now...I just don't see them as the end game...I think there is someone else out there for Dan.
4. Not sure if the writers will let him take her down...but I'm sure hoping he gets some real good licks in...she needs to respect him more than she has been..plus ERIC ROCKS!!
5. She will use the knowledge obtained in the letter to somehow help her to get her man back! it won't be blackmail...Serena already saw it ..right?
