On the November 29 episode of Gossip Girl (there's no new episode next Monday, November 22), Nate attempts to help his parents, The Captain and Ann, reconcile.

What's even more intriguing is this tidbit "Chuck, Serena, Blair, Dan, Jenny and Eric are faced with a crisis when a member of one of their families is hospitalized."

That's from the CW's synopsis of "Gaslit." Who do you think ends up in the hospital, and what are the ramifications of this event for the aforementioned characters?

Crisis is coming again to the Upper East Side.

The writers have dealt us some shocking accidents around the holidays before, if you recall from "O Brother, Where Bart Thou" and last season's "The Debarted."

Could it be another car accident? Will it involve Lily and Rufus, who have been scarcely used so far this season? Or perhaps Blair's mother in a surprise move?
