A new ep of Private Practice is expected to air on Thursday (April 22) on ABC. Here’s a synopsis of episode “Second Choices”: After her open-ended escape to Costa Rica, Violet has finally returned home and to the practice. Everyone treads a little lightly around her, especially Pete and Addison who have mixed feelings about Violet’s desire to reconnect with Lucas. Meanwhile Amelia butts into Sam’s personal life, pointing out that he can mend hearts in the OR but can’t seem to do that for himself; and Sheldon encourages Charlotte to reconcile with Cooper, while Cooper deals with a young patient who eats everything in sight.
Ahh, we does ABC make us wait so long for the new ep? Not fair.

I agree, Dianne09! Could not agree with you more! Except, I really want Violet with Pete. What a great couple they make! I can't wait to see her bonding and finally be a mother to Lucas! Yaay! His mom is back!

I want to see Violet reconnect with Lucas. Violet is why I watch, and if she's happy with Pete, so be it. But I really want her to be Lucas's mom again.
Addison, sorry, I hate that character. I didn't like her on Grey's either. Yeah, her trying to play mommy is creepy. And doesn't she realize Pete will eventually dump her for Violet? Lucas's actual mother. She makes so many bad decisions, it's hard to like her character.

If Violet's return means an ending for Pete/Addison, do SAddison still have a chance?

@ bekki Shonda seems to count on it, because she's already started hinting about her plans for next season.

@MissKitten Thanks :) its just sooo annoying...i miss it :( haha
hmmmm...probably, keep it going as long as possible :/ is there going to be a season 4!?

@ bekki Shonda said she had no control over the scheduling of episodes and if it had been up to her we would get no breaks in episode airing. Violet's absence was due to Amy being ill, but nothing to do the scheduling. That's completely up to ABC. They have their schedule that they follow, and my guess is that they want to keep the show going until mid/end of May, like with most other shows... so they put in breaks and air reruns instead...

Charlotte Cooper and Sheldon are my favorite characters on the show right now. At least things are starting to look brighter for Chopper.

@MissKitten i know. alex and addison never seemed forced, they just seemed natural, and truely in love, but scared of it aswell, and thats why she told him to go get ava at christina and burkes wedding. she just wanted him to be happy. her and pete do seemed forced.
they never used to. in season 1 i wanted pete&addison together and violet&cooper together, but when violet&pete and cooper&charlotte got together, it felt right. and now that pete&addison are back together, it feels wrong, like her life is moving backwards instead of forwards.
anyway - can anybody tell me when the next episode is on!? i can't find anything anywhere to tell me. well, i found one site which said the 22nd of April. is this true!? and why?! i don't like how they keep missing weeks out! is it cos of everything that's been happening to the actors. I.E. Tim Daly's mother passing away, and Amy Brenneman being ill?!

@ bekki Alex coming over would really work for me, cause Addie/Alex were one of my big ships on Grey's and since ViP is my big ship on PrP it really works!
I wouldn't hate seeing Addie and Sam finally giving it a go, either. But Addie and Pete are just WRONG!!!

To go completely off topic, I want the disembodied voice of the elevator back, she was cool, everytime I watch an episode I wait for her to pipe up and say something, especially since everyone wants to speak to Sheldon on the elevator, you could have her chime in with her opinion, I loved it when Addie thought she was going nuts.
Sam and Addie have a great bond of friendship, and bringing more into it will just wreck that friendship.
I like Addie and Pete together, I thought they should have been together all along, I love watching the backdoor pilot, when Addie leaves Seattle to visit Noami and Pete gives Addie such a steamy hot kiss, there was attraction between them back then before they became friends.
If no one wants Addie with Sam or Pete give Addie McSteamy or someone on par as McSteamy, Addison is hot and she deserves a man just as hot as she is.
I would like Naomi and Sam to hook up, Naomi still has feelings for Sam, because she freaked when she thought Addie and

@Corazon : AGREED XD alex and addison were my fav relationship pairing on greys. they were sooo perfect. i don't know why the writers screwed it up. she deserved to be happy :@
i don't see why they are wasting time by "giving false hope" to addison. pete and violet belong together. he was waiting - and addison screwed that up. i love addison and all, but not atm, when it comes to this situation.
@ bekki: Oh, I totally want Alex to come to LA, rescue Addison from the mess that is her life and live with her happily ever after. lol They had amazing chemistry and their relationship was so different from all the others on Grey's. It seemed so much more mature. (Until the writer screwed that up...)
But obviously there's only like a 1% chance of them ever being together. ;)
I can just repeat myself: I hope they don't waste my time with Addison/Pete for much longer. There's no passion there at all, never has been. They totally pale in comparison to any other Addison pairing.

I think that pete and addison should break up...
sam stay with vanessa (or get with amelia - i think they'd be a cute couple)
pete and violet get back together - lucas needs his real mum, who is there for him, not just a "mum" who is there because she can't have her own kids.
i think alex should be in the next cross-over and get back with addison. i loved them two together. they just seemed right. they're chemistry has been there all along, and she clearly loved him, and strongly as she told him to go get "ava" besides, it was because of him that she went to la, and met pete, and she was upset when she first saw him, so now she has this image of him being her saviour from bad relationships
i love charlotte&coop, but i think that charlottes relationship with sheldon is really good, i never used to like him but now i kinda do - but then coop has to get with someone - vanessa?! as she's already part of the show
i love naomi and fife - i don't like her with william. it j

How can anyone love Addison and want her with Pete?? She deserves better. Pete loves Violet, making Addison second best. She needs someone that loves only her. Pete loves Violet and always will, he's said it over and over again. He's made that quite clear. Besides, I have to admit, he and Violet make a very good and attractive couple. And they have that cute little baby!

Violet is back!!!!!!!!!! Violet and Pete are the best!!!! I only watch for them too!
I wonder how surprised the writer's were when they found out how many Pete and Violet fans there are. I read somewhere that they said Violet/Pete are the MerDer of Private Practice.

I totally agree! Addison is the obstacle for Violet and Pete. An obstacle that I'm betting will jumped fast. Why would they go through this two year on/off relationship between Vi and Pete, plus have them have a baby, plus the history between them that they showed in the season premiere, if they weren't going to end up together? Doesn't make sense. Violet and Pete are just so good together. They both have so much inner turmoil! ha ha. Turmoil that they seem to work through when together. There is just something really strong between them, maybe it's the fact that Amy Brenneman and Tim Daly are so close in real life, that it really comes off in their performances. There is a lot of affection there, you can tell.
A LONG time ago, I liked Addison and Pete too, but they lost me when they put Violet with Pete. I was stunned by how much I love Violet and Pete as couple. Incredible pairing! Now I can't wait to see those two try to be a family. But if she's still working through tra

See, I think Addison is a test for Pete and Violet. Maybe once upon a time, Addie and Pete were the deal, but not any more. They really have no chemistry, they aren't good together, and I agree with the others, they seem forced. I used to love Addison and Pete, but when they put him with Violet, there was something there that he never had with Addison. He loves Violet, plus, they have a child. It will be Violet and Pete. I do agree that Pete may struggle with the fact that Violet walked away from everything, but I also think he'll be so happy to have her back that he will try again. She went through hell, more than once, and Pete is so understanding of that. I don't think he'll turn his back on Violet. Pete and Violet are the real deal, sorry, I don't think it's Addison. I think Addison is the bump in the road for Vi and Pete. But they'll get over it, they have a kid and are in love. I do feel bad for Addison, I think she is about to really be hurt. But, yeah, she should ha
